Engis Corporation is a third-generation privately-owned US-based manufacturer of high-performance superabrasive lapping, grinding, honing, and polishing products and related machinery and accessories.
The company began in 1938, with offices in the US and UK, as a trading company for precision measuring equipment and industrial machinery. The company entered into the abrasives market in the 1940s with the development of its Hyprez Diamond Compounds for precise polishing of critical components for defense and aviation industries. Since that time, Engis expanded its range of superabrasive products, applications, and industries served to be recognized as World Leader in Superabrasive Finishing Systems.
The company’s 131,000 square foot headquarters and manufacturing facility in Wheeling, Illinois, is located 15 miles north of Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. To provide sales, technical, and logistical support for multinational and foreign customers, Engis has established subsidiary companies located in Canada, the UK, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, and China, supplemented by a worldwide network of Agents and Distributors. The State of Illinois has recognized Engis as “Exporter of the Year.”
Engis products are developed, customized and supported by teams of experienced research scientists, design and application engineers.
Diamond-based surface engineering systems from Engis are helping global technology and manufacturing firms expand the frontiers of innovation. How? By applying our diamond expertise to each application through our Diamond Characterization Lab.
At the heart of this process is classifying and characterizing diamond particles especially suited to each material and application. Consistent results require a precise understanding of diamond's intrinsic and extrinsic attributes - such as particle size, shape, cleanliness, friability and thermal properties. Each variable affects performance, so each system must be engineered to generate specific surface features, geometries and finishes. READ MORE.....
Engis is renowned for the superior reliability, quality and consistency of our diamond grit. This is made possible by our ISO9001 quality certified facilities where we micronize our own diamond.
Most important, Engis understands how to repeatedly create new breakthroughs for our customers. We have worked with the world's leading data storage companies for decades, engineering surface finishing processes that enable continuous improvements in the speed, accuracy and integrity of disk drives. Engis also revolutionized the honing process - across all applications and materials. Our precision single-pass bore finishing technology arose out of our experts' intrinsic understanding of diamond superabrasives and how to apply them in customer applications.
