🏆 REM Surface Engineering Wins the 2026 EPMA Powder Metallurgy Innovation Award!

We’re proud to announce that REM Surface Engineering’s Selective Chemical Declogging (SCD) process has been named the winner in the Process Category of the 2026 EPMA Powder Metallurgy Innovation Awards!

Recognized by the European Powder Metallurgy Association, SCD addresses a critical challenge in metal additive manufacturing: removing residual powder from complex internal passages that conventional cleaning methods often struggle to reach.

Using proprietary chemistry, SCD selectively removes unfused and loosely sintered powder while minimizing reaction with the consolidated metal substrate. This enables effective powder removal from intricate geometries, including heat exchangers, manifolds, and internal cooling channels.

This award recognizes the innovation and technical expertise behind a solution that is helping manufacturers push the boundaries of what’s possible with metal additive manufacturing.

A huge congratulations to our team for this achievement, and thank you to the EPMA for this recognition!

channels, and lattices across materials including titanium, nickel alloys, stainless steel, and superalloys.

As the energy sector accelerates the commercial deployment of metal additive manufacturing, overcoming surface roughness and internal feature constraints remains critical for oil and gas components. REM Surface Engineering solves these post-processing challenges with our Extreme ISF Process.

Our chemical and chemical-mechanical surface finishing technologies reduce surface roughness, remediate surface and near-surface defects, improve corrosion resistance, and increase bending fatigue life for 3D printed parts. These capabilities extend to complex geometries, internal channels, and lattices across materials including titanium, nickel alloys, stainless steel, and superalloys.

Connect with our team in Houston to discuss how our isotropic superfinishing solutions can optimize your additively manufactured energy components.

REM Surface Engineering is proud to contribute technical expertise to an upcoming presentation at ASTM ICAM 2026 focused on internal flow surfaces in additively manufactured components.

Led by researchers at Pennsylvania State University and the Pennsylvania State University Applied Research Laboratory, the study "Characterization of Thermohydraulic Performance in Chemically Polished Additively Manufactured Heat Exchangers" evaluates the operational impacts of chemical polishing on fluid flow and thermal transfer efficiency.

REM contributed to this effort by delivering chemical polishing support and surface finish analysis to evaluate performance metrics in internal heat exchanger channels.

Come see this in person at IMTS 2026 at McCormick Place in Chicago, September 14-19.

We recently partnered with Meltio to showcase the capabilities of Laser-Wire DED combined with REM surface refinement.

This project features a Stainless Steel 316L part printed in 9 hours and 50 minutes. It utilizes Meltio wire-laser DED to create intricate geometries and integrated internal channels, which allow fresh fuel to cool the walls during engine operation.

To address surface roughness, REM applied the Extreme ISF® Technology. The internal channel Chemical Polishing process reduced linear texture. Furthermore, the chemical-mechanical polishing process removed essentially all waviness from the inner and outer walls in 36 hours, leaving only deep residual valley features behind.
