DMU65 Ultrasonic on titanium


I was feeling frivolous one day and bought a 2014 DMU65 Ultrasonic FD, completely optioned out: 18K HSK63 spindle, 90 position tool magazine, Blum laser, quickset3d, renshaw, high pressure spindle coolant, 1000 psi refrigerated coolant plant, fine abrasive removal centrifuge, chip spray gun fire hose option, and more additional options.

That made me, by happenstance, the first DMG Mori customer to put rotary ultrasonic cutting of titanium into production. I love titanium. I love 5-axis machining. I have a lot of energy and creativity, so I was pretty sure I could cover the $7000/month machine financing with, like, Etsy sales and maybe some music festival booth sales and whatever, you know?

Which is correct. That is the case.
