Any time two metal parts come into contact, the resulting friction causes heat to build up. These high temperatures lead to wear over time,
reduce efficiency, and eventually create the need for replacement. By creating a smooth and shiny finish, the ISF Process increases
the life expectancy and efficiency of moving metal parts. Increased life expectancy translates into both lower operating costs and
improved performance. The ISF Process is a physicochemical process, using high density, non-abrasive ceramic media and conventional
vibratory finishing equipment in which large batches of parts can be processed at the same time.
The ISF Process removes the surface asperities inherent in machining processes. By safely removing these microscopic peaks, the ISF Process
leaves a highly uniform surface which reduces friction and allows for increased lubrication capability. While the dimensional integrity
remains intact, the result is an improved component that will operate at lower temperatures, have increased durability, quieter operation,
and increased time between maintenance.
REM Chemical Inc's patented ISF Process has been tested, proven, certified, and is currently in use in many different industries. It is highly
successful on parts that operate under extreme conditions. The ISF Process is used in military applications and is FAA approved. The results
of the ISF Process are undeniable. No matter what your product, the ISF Process will greatly improve performance, and save time, energy, and
money.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Does the ISF Process have any detrimental effect on the geometry of the
part? No. The ISF Process has been certified for use on DIN 2 (AGMA Q 13) quality gears. Material refined from the surfaces of
gear flanks is uniform in profile and from tooth to tooth. Depth of material removed by the ISF Process is typically 0.0001 inches.
Does the ISF Process cause hydrogen embrittlement? No.
The ISF Process produces a slightly oxidizing environment in the vibratory equipment and hydrogen is not generated. ISF has been repeatedly
tested and proven to be free from causing hydrogen embrittlement and intragranular attack. The process is metallurgically safe.
Is the ISF Process expensive? No. The cost is
surprisingly very affordable. In fact, once the savings of reduced downtime and extended service life are taken into account, there won't be
any question as to the value of the ISF Process.
