From 1816 to the New Millennium
A Unique
History of Quality Manufacturing
Remington's mastery of today's best powder
metal (CompactAlloyTM) and metal injection molding (InjectAlloy®) technologies has uniquely
deep roots. Our company began as a firearms manufacturer in 1816 - when the
United States was beginning its journey to becoming the premier industrial
power.
As the country developed, grew, and thrived, so did
Remington - and for many of the same reasons. From the beginning, Remington
typified the American gift for invention and exploration. Our company has
always focused on bringing the latest technology and the best possible quality
to customers who both recognized it and demanded it.
Today, Remington is among
the oldest and most experienced industrial companies - not only in the United
States, but in the world. As much as things have changed since the early
nineteenth century, we're still driven by the same dedication to discovery,
problem solving, customer service, and product excellence that has brought us
success through almost two centuries.
Nobody Knows
Powder Metal Better
High-density powder metal part manufacturing was made
practical in the 1950's through the cooperative efforts of some of the era's
most innovative companies. Remington, together with IBM, Maytag, Pitney-Bowes,
and National Cash Register, developed the technology that is still the
foundation of high-density, high-quality powder metal part production.
High temperature sintering-as developed by Remington-was the key to
production of parts that could meet quality and performance requirements far
beyond what had previously been possible. Conventional sintering uses
temperatures up to 2100°F. We pushed the limit to 2600°F believing that we
could achieve unprecedented strength and ductility while enhancing other
crucial properties. We were right.
Today,
only one company with that unique heritage and depth of experience serves
customers through contract powder metal part manufacturing. That company is
Remington.
