Tech/Engineering - Manufacturing / machine tool for automotive parts
French term or phrase: percé dans la masse
This is a press release type document for a company that makes machine tools for the automotive industry, and specifically drills.

"Un des points clés d’un outillage de presse à chaud est son système de refroidissement. Celui-ci est entièrement percé dans la masse.

Does it mean "in the solid part"? There are plenty of "dans la masse" in the glossaries, but they don't seem to fit. Thanks for any help.
