TextureJet is a leading innovator in surface engineering technology
TextureJet, a leading innovator in surface engineering technology, is proud to announce the installation of its Electrochemical Jet Machining (ECJM) systems at KU Leuven, one of Europe’s most prestigious research universities.
The collaboration will support cutting-edge research into the machining of special alloys, where surface integrity, precision and material control are essential. By integrating TextureJet’s ECJM technology into its research programmes, KU Leuven aims to explore new methodologies for high-performance surface processing in advanced materials.
“It’s fantastic to see our technology being adopted by one of Europe’s top research institutions,” said Jonathon Mitchell-Smith, CEO of TextureJet. “KU Leuven’s work aligns perfectly with our mission to enable precise, sustainable surface processing. Collaborations like this not only validate the potential of ECJM but also help drive the next wave of innovation — both in academia and industry.”
ECJM is a proprietary, non-contact surface processing method developed by TextureJet to deliver burr-free, selective material removal on complex geometries with unmatched control. It provides a cleaner, more energy-efficient alternative to traditional methods, supporting both precision performance and sustainability goals.
This marks a milestone in TextureJet’s growing engagement with academic institutions, following a successful partnership with WMG at The University of Warwick last year.
