Extrude honing is a process that can be utilized by many different industries. The aerospace industry is one of the industries that can utilize abrasive flow machining and extrude honing in the process. In fact, the aerospace industry is where we actually began offering our services. The extrude honing process was invented to deburr and finish aircraft hydraulic and fuel system components. Over the years, we have perfected the highly customized process and are happy to offer our services to those in the aerospace industry.
What are the benefits of sending aerospace components to Extrude Hone AFM?
There are many benefits associated with sending your aerospace components to the experts at Extrude Hone AFM. The process of extrude honing allows inaccessible areas in aircraft components to be deburred, polished, and finished. Our patented process can improve surface finish on cast blades, edge radii on attachment features of disks and blades, and remove thermal machining recast after EDM or laser machining. With material removal from blades, you can experience a more balanced flow capability and added flow capacity.
