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.
TextureJet said it is "proud" to have developed the next-generation of targeted and sustainable surface processing technology. Its innovative, globally patented technology can deburr, roughen, polish, pattern, part mark or remove coatings from almost any metal surface.
This attractive 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.
Sustainability is essential for all businesses today, and TextureJet is committed to developing sustainable manufacturing processes that minimize the environmental impact of its customers operations. Its patented surface processing technologies can reduce the amount of waste generated by up to 84% (according to the independent Wood report, 2022).
With global expansion plans, it is an exciting time for the small company.
Jonathan Mitchell-Smith, CEO and founder of TextureJet, said: “It is fantastic to receive this award as recognition of us as a leading business in manufacturing. Looking back over the past 5 years, I can't believe how far we have come! We started as a university spin out and today, we have 15 employees, globally patented technology and rapid expansion plans in the US, UK and Europe.
"Thank you to everyone who has supported us so far and all our employees for their hard work and continued faith in the company to make this happen.”
TextureJet recently launched the Desktop Jet, a mini version of the established Precision Jet machine. With external dimensions of just 950mm x 600mm x 770mm, this is a small but mighty bit of kit that can be mounted on a desktop.
