TextureJet has installed its Stat and JetWrite machines to help Dynatec with its surface processing in a demanding application on its production line.

Dynatec is currently optimising the best possible design of nozzle to speed up and improve the material removal process in combination with TextureJet’s engineering team, and both companies said that they look forward to developing their partnership.

The Norwegian supplier can assist in most mechanical production systems combining the latest in technology from a variety of sources to deliver a production solution for deep sea, food and aerospace production lines.

Now in its fifth year of business, TextureJet started life as a Nottingham University PhD project. Utilising a highly localised variant of electrochemical machining, known as electrochemical jet machining, the company is now delivering a tooling platform with ‘world leading’ capability to selectively change the surface texture of components, resulting in streamlined production lines.

The company said it is proud to have developed the ‘next generation’ of targeted and sustainable surface processing technology. Its globally patented technology can not only deburr but also roughen, polish, pattern, part mark or remove coatings from almost any metal surface.

This alternative to existing technologies results in reductions in factory and toxic footprint, as well as process and operational costs. The process is flexible, easily automated, scalable, and cost-effective, making it an excellent choice for all high value manufacturing industries.

TextureJet said that as sustainability is essential for all businesses today, the company is committed to developing sustainable manufacturing processes that can minimise the environmental impact of its customers operations. Its patented surface processing technologies can reduce the amount of waste generated by up to 84 per cent, according to the independent Wood report, 2022.

“This is a really exciting partnership for us. We look forward to seeing the first results soon and potential developments with other technology,” said Jonathan Mitchell-Smith, CEO and founder of TextureJet.
