I am explaining the background of the birth of semi-dry processing.
The concept of semi-dry processing emerged in response to the growing concerns about global warming and environmental pollution that began to rise worldwide in the 1990s. As a result of post-war mass production in the industrial sector, serious environmental pollution, such as air pollution, was brought about in various countries. Consequently, international conferences aimed at addressing these issues began to be held around 1990. This prompted companies around the world to recognize the necessity of seriously addressing the reduction of pollutants in their production and social activities, as well as resource conservation and energy savings, a commitment that continues to this day. In the keynote paper of the 1997 CIRP (International Academy for Production Engineering) annual report, the demands from society to the industrial sector were summarized into four points: "advanced high-performance materials," "high productivity," "high precision," and "environmental consideration needs." At that time, a large amount of cutting oils was used in machining, leading to environmental pollution from waste generated during their lifespan, and 40% to 60% of machine power was consumed in oil supply and circulation. As a result, research was conducted to thoroughly reduce cutting oil, leading to the development of semi-dry processing. The movement towards this "non-waste" economic system continues to this day.

Company information
Cool Tech is a manufacturer of devices and cutting oils that improve productivity in metal processing and enhance the environment. Since its establishment in 1983, Cool Tech has contributed to improving the productivity of manufacturing lines, primarily in the construction machinery industry, through its engineering business. However, with the acceleration of overseas relocations of construction machinery manufacturers' production facilities, it became necessary to respond to these environmental changes. Therefore, based on the experience and knowledge gained from previous businesses, we have shifted our business model to develop, manufacture, and sell devices aimed at improving productivity for the metal processing industry. Currently, we offer a range of products that propose solutions to issues related to cutting oils, including water-soluble mist devices, high pH alkaline ion water generators, and dedicated cutting oils. We have received support from numerous customers both domestically and internationally. Utilizing the experience and knowledge cultivated over many years in the engineering business, we will contribute to the development of the metal processing industry through product development that realizes productivity improvements in metal processing and sales through consulting for our customers.
