AMT PostPro enters distribution partnership with SurfacePrep
SurfacePrep will offer AMT’s automated vapor smoothing and finishing systems to manufacturers across North America
Additive Manufacturing Technologies (AMT) PostPro, an automated post-processing solutions company, has entered a reseller partnership with SurfacePrep, one of North America’s largest distributors of surface preparation and finishing solutions.
Through this partnership, SurfacePrep will offer AMT’s automated vapor smoothing and finishing systems to manufacturers across North America. These systems are engineered not only for the additive manufacturing space, but also to unlock significant value in traditional manufacturing workflows – where vapor smoothing (also known as vapor polishing) can dramatically improve surface finish and enhance the performance of CNC-machined components.
“AMT’s post-processing solutions are no longer limited to additive manufacturing. We see a vast, underutilized opportunity within conventional production methods,” said Paul Carlson, Chief Commercial Officer at AMT. “We recently installed a system in a traditional manufacturing setting that will process over 120,000 parts per year, utilizing our vapor smoothing technology, unlocking hundreds of thousands of dollars in annual savings. Partnering with SurfacePrep extends these outcomes to more manufacturers in key industrial sectors.”
SurfacePrep’s extensive distribution network and decades of expertise in industrial surface finishing make it an ideal partner to extend AMT’s solutions to a wide range of customers in automotive, aerospace, medical, and general manufacturing sectors.
This partnership also marks SurfacePrep’s entry into the additive manufacturing market, aligning with its broader strategy to support advanced, next-generation manufacturing technologies.
“Additive manufacturing is at a tipping point where scalable, repeatable post-processing is critical to industrial adoption,” said Brent Cassil, VP of Strategic Growth at SurfacePrep. “By partnering with AMT, we’re providing customers access to world-class post-processing solutions backed by our distribution and service expertise.”
