FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Southington, CT — REM Surface Engineering, a global leader in advanced surface finishing technologies, announced today that it will return as an exhibitor at RAPID + TCT this April, North America’s largest and most influential additive manufacturing event. Attendees can visit REM at Booth 2459 to learn more about the company’s innovative post-processing solutions for metal additive manufacturing (AM) components.
REM Surface Engineering is the inventor of the Extreme ISF® Process, a comprehensive suite of chemical and chemical-mechanical surface finishing and polishing technologies. The Extreme ISF Process includes both low- and high-energy isotropic superfinishing technologies designed to address the most demanding surface challenges associated with metal AM production.
The Extreme ISF Process effectively removes extreme surface roughness and surface and near-surface defects commonly found in metal AM components. These improvements translate to enhanced dynamic fatigue life, increased corrosion resistance, and improved flow performance through reduced turbulence and pressure drop, critical benefits for aerospace, defense, energy, and advanced industrial applications.
Additional applications of the Extreme ISF Process include support structure removal, internal channel powder removal to eliminate particle shedding and cleanliness concerns, controlled wall-thickness reduction below commonly printable dimensions, and controlled orifice size increases. These capabilities enable manufacturers to unlock new design freedoms while improving component reliability and performance.
REM Surface Engineering is proud to support NASA, DARPA, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), and the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) through both SBIR and non-SBIR programs, reinforcing its role as a trusted partner for advanced manufacturing innovation.
Founded in 1965, REM provides its technologies through outsourced processing services at its U.S. and German facilities, as well as through turnkey process installations at customer sites worldwide.
