In automotive applications, the AFM process can help boost flow rates for more complete and efficient combustion.

Extrude Hone AFM was instrumental in pioneering the AFM process into the auto industry over 30 years ago. The process is now recognized worldwide for its ability to increase fuel and air flow up to 25 percent, which in turn will increase horsepower, thrust, and torque on all types of internal combustion engines. From 2-Stroke or 4, 6, 8, 10, or 12 cylinders to hemis, diesels, or turbos to aluminum or cast iron, we can get you the most out of it.

Following the AFM process, combustion becomes more intense, and fuel will more completely burn at ignition. Now, with better volumetric efficiency, along with a freer flowing exhaust, the cylinder is more completely evacuated and can receive a stronger measure of fuel and air for the next ignition. Additionally, since the most offensive pollutants generated by automobile exhaust emissions are 96% unspent fuel, the more complete the burn of the fuel, the more environmentally-friendly the engine will run. This makes Extrude Hone AFM's contribution complete: better performance, better fuel efficiency, and cleaner exhaust emissions.

Improve surface finishes fast with our precision AFM process.

Extrude Honing AFM also has revolutionized the finishing of precision dies. AFM is now used by more than half of the world’s manufacturers of precision through passage dies, due to several factors:

The process polishes surfaces in the direction of flow, producing a better quality and longer lasting die with a uniform surface and gently radiused edges

The die passage itself provides the restriction for media flow, typically eliminating fixture requirements

Multiple passages can be processed simultaneously

Surface finishes are improved by 90 percent with minimal dimensional change

The uniformity of stock removal permits accurate “sizing” of undersized die passages

Jobs requiring hours of highly skilled hand polishing are processed automatically in far less processing time than traditional methods
