EXTRUDE HONE’S ACTIVE CONTRIBUTION TO AMUG 2025 SOLUTIONS
Extrude Hone will exhibit and participate in a panel discussion at AMUG 2025 to showcase their contributions to the additive manufacturing industry.
AMUG 2025 will feature a rich program of nearly 150 presentations, panel discussions, and interactive workshops.
Highlights of the AMUG 2025
The AMUG (Additive Manufacturing Users Group) event is a dynamic gathering designed “FOR USERS – BY USERS,” dedicated to educating and advancing the applications of additive manufacturing technologies.
At its core, AMUG thrives on a robust community deeply committed to shaping the future of the additive manufacturing (AM) industry, emphasizing education strongly.
A notable new feature this year is the extension of AMUGexpo, which will feature 41 exhibitors and run from Sunday to Tuesday, offering attendees more opportunities to explore the latest advances in additive manufacturing.
AMUG provides an inclusive conference agenda where participants, regardless of expertise—whether expert, intermediate, or novice—can gain insights from engineers, designers, and educators, with :
- Keynote presentations
- Technical sessions
- Panel discussions
- Training sessions
- Hands-on workshops
- Technical competition
- Innovators Showcase
- AMUGexpo
- AMUGderby
In contrast to traditional trade shows, the AMUG expo stands out focusing on selected exhibitors, prioritizing quality over quantity, thus providing attendees with a curated experience that goes beyond the ordinary.

AMUG surface finishing of AM metal components panel discussion.
Ray Amin, MS Mech Eng and Business Development Manager at Extrude Hone, is set to participate in a panel discussion alongside industry peers including :
- Agustin Diaz Ph D from REM Surface Engineering,
- Timothy D Hall, Ph. D from Faraday Technology,
- Jim Ringer, MBA from Tech Met,
- and Laurent Cataldo from MicroTek.
Ryan Watkins, Ph D from Jet Propulsion Laboratory, will moderate this engaging discussion.
The discussion, scheduled to take place on the 1st of April, will take place between 4:30 and 5:30 p.m. in Room Continental C on the Lobby level. Attendees will have the unique opportunity to pose questions to the panelists, delving into post-processing technologies.

Abrasive Flow Machining (AFM)
Abrasive Flow Machining (AFM) can meet your smooth polishing and edge rounding requirements.
This technology efficiently handles polishing and edge rounding needs, providing a tenfold improvement in surface smoothness compared to initial roughness. AFM is ideal for industries such as Medical, Aerospace, Energy, and Formula 1, ensuring enhanced flow and cleanliness.
Whether replacing manual polishing or refining intricate Additive Manufacturing (AM) components, AFM offers a viable solution. Explore the paper “Abrasive flow machining (AFM) finishing of conformal cooling channels created by selective laser melting (SLM)” on ScienceDirect for insights into AFM’s impact on intricate channels.
For further information, read the white paper on the support-free printing of closed impellers and AFM, detailing the advantages of AFM in specific applications.
MICROFLOW
If you’re grappling with channels of such diminutive size that you believe no solution exists, discuss MICROFLOW’s capabilities with our team.
This technology is rooted in the AFM process but has been meticulously calibrated to handle channels as small as 40µm (1.575 µin) in diameter. While AM may not reach such low dimensions, the process aligns with the precision required for small holes, particularly in nozzles.
Thermal Deburring (TEM)
In metal 3D printing, support structures are vital for stress-free, accurate parts, often placed in challenging areas, complicating removal through machining and increasing production costs.
Manual support removal is inconsistent, time-consuming, and poses safety concerns. By combining Advanced TEM Processes with specialized support structures, we efficiently eliminate support material in channel-like features within seconds, addressing inaccessible areas simultaneously.
Electrochemical Machining (ECM)
With incredible designs come ultimate challenges for conventional machining
process in some areas: discover ECM.
ECM solutions combine shaping and surface improvement operations in a one-step process.
ECM goes beyond the Static Method and comes with Dynamic ECM.
Contract Shop Service
Because AM production has yet to involve large volumes at Extrude Hone, you can outsource to our contract shop service if you cannot justify buying equipment. This is a distinctive solution on the market.
You are also welcome to visit our shop to see what happens to your cherished parts.
