Abrasive Flow Machining: A Versatile Solution
Abrasive flow machining is a unique process where a specially crafted polymer media, embedded with abrasive grit, is used to polish and refine every nook and cranny of your metal part. This method stands out from other finishing techniques for several reasons:
- With the right abrasive grit and viscosity of polymer media, AFM can be used on any metal from titanium to aluminum
- Hidden slots, convoluted passages, and cross drilled holes can all be finished with ease
- Both roughing and finishing can be completed in one process
- The entire workpiece need not be finished--we can direct flow selectively using the tooling
- The process can be controlled with incredible precision to meet your exact specs
As you can see, there are many benefits to utilizing abrasive flow machining in Fort Worth TX to finish your components.
