First American is still in the developmental stage of this product, and a functioning prototype is expected sometime next year.

My understanding was the potential retrofit and testing would be over the next few months. They have the machine, they have the cooling unit, the cooled rubber is simply conveyer into the existing machine as I understand it.

Would appreciate your interpretation of the timing.

John,
"I wonder how the two compare?"
I'm not sure if this is what you are asking.

The following is a list of U.S. Mesh to Microns:
U.S. Mesh Microns
4 = 4750
10 = 2000
18 = 1000
23 = 850 Using Interpolation
35 = 500
60 = 250
100 = 150
120 = 125
140 = 102
170 = 89
200 = 76
203 = 75 Using Interpolation
230 = 64
240 = 61 Using Interpolation =Desired
270 = 51
325 = 45
400 = 38
500 = 25.4
635 = 19.1
1000 = 12.7
2000 = 6.4

1 mil = 0.001 in. = 25.4 microns
1 in. = 25.4 mm = 25400 microns
1 mm = .0394 in. = 1,000 microns
