2008 -- HONDA "Special Recognition" Award

May 6, 2008 . . . Honda presents Tru-Edge with
a "Special Recognition" Award for going well beyond normal duties . . .

Tru-Edge was among only two firms receiving Special Recognition awards for their innovation of manufacturing processes. Through its innovative approach, Tru-Edge was instrumental in developing new regrind technology that allows the Anna Engine Plan to regrind existing "worn out" cutting tools in the plant.

In addition to optimizing drilling performance, the new technology is saving hundreds of thousands of dollars per year and reducing Honda's costs associated with using new materials.

Tru-Edge General Manager Tim Knapke, said he is honored that Honda selected his company for the special recognition award. "This is what being in business is all about . . . building lasting relationships," Knapke said. "In today's competitive market, you must keep up with the latest technology, but more important you must take care of your customers."
