Developing a new technology: advanced surface hardening and grinding in a single operation

我们的进步将使澳大利亚制造业首次获得精密磨削这一关键加工工艺的重大技术进步。这将提高我们的国际竞争力，通过简化制造程序和消除有毒冷却剂的使用来大幅降低成本。该技术将为澳大利亚在精密加工领域的进一步研究提供重要机会，为将该技术扩展到更复杂的制造工艺奠定基础。

Our advances will give Australian manufacturing industry first access to a significant technological advance in precision grinding, a critical machining process. This will improve our international competitiveness, through major cost reductions by simplifying the manufacturing procedure and by eliminating the use of toxic coolants. The technology will provide significant opportunities for further Australian research in precision machining by creating a foundation for extending the technology to more complex manufacturing processes.
