1 min read
As part of its Advanced Materials Processing Laboratories Network, Engis Corporation has now opened a facility at Henley-on-Thames.
This facility provides a European resource for developers seeking technical support and expertise in polishing and thinning of advanced materials. Expert staff will work directly with manufacturers and researchers to solve the technical challenges posed by processing the raft of new materials now being used in the production environment.
This close collaboration enables new production processes to be developed concurrently with product designs, so delivering highly technical products to the market more quickly and with greater reliability.
The core concept behind the Advanced Materials Laboratories is Engis’ integrated approach to diamond superabrasive technology, which brings together all the different components of the process, from machine tools, plates, pads and facing tools equipment to consumables such as slurries and lubricants, into one unified solution, each element of which is under Engis’ complete control.
Staff in the network of laboratories work together, pooling their expertise to focus on an individual polishing and lapping requirement, providing global expertise at a local level.
