Industrial

Improvement with purpose

Industrial components are often exposed to abrasive wear, chemical exposure, fluctuating loads, and challenging environments – all while being expected to perform reliably over long service lifetimes. Whether in manufacturing equipment, process engineering, or high-precision tooling, surface degradation can lead to reduced efficiency, product defects, or unexpected downtime.

Our nanostructured surfaces offer a robust and scalable solution to these challenges. By tailoring the topography of metal components at the micro- and nanoscale, we can improve wear resistance, reduce friction, and minimize buildup of unwanted residues – without adding traditional coatings or changing the base material. This enables a longer-lasting performance and fewer maintenance cycles across a wide range of industrial applications.

Wear resistance

Improves durability in high-friction or abrasive conditions.

Anti-adhesive effects
Process reliability

Reduces residue buildup and simplifies cleaning.

Enhances consistency and stability in critical surface functions.

Forming & Stamping Tools

Die surfaces and forming tools are subject to extreme contact pressure and sliding friction, which can lead to wear or sticking of processed materials. Nanostructured topographies can reduce friction and surface adhesion leading to lower deform forces and less residues – increasing tool life time and process stability.

Chemical Process Equipment

Pipes, nozzles, or containment units used in chemical environments must resist corrosion, contamination, and scaling. Nanostructured surfaces help improve cleanability, reduce chemical interaction, and enhance overall equipment integrity.

Handling & Transfer Components

Grippers, guides, and robotic interfaces benefit from precise surface control. Anti-adhesive or friction-optimized topographies can reduce wear and prevent accumulation of dust or residues – especially in dry or particulate-prone environments.
