Metal Finishing

After all aspects of the casting and machining are complete, we can apply all aesthetic, functional, or protective coatings. The various finishing options include:

  • Vibratory Deburring
  • Shotblasting
  • Robotic Sanding, Polishing, and Bright Finish
  • Robotic Painting
  • Powder Paint
  • Wet Spray Paint
  • Plating- Chromate, E-Nickel, Cadmium, and Silver Plating
  • E Coating

Large capacity vibratory deburring is a popular finishing technique in circumstances where "pre-plate" or operator handling of the product is important. This method provides two benefits in one process: smooth radiused edges and removal of the oils used in machining and trimming. We offer any combination of plastic, ceramic, steel, and other media.

Shotblasting provides a "sand blast" finish in a variety of textures. We recommend this technique for both "flash" removal and pre-paint texturizing. Shotblasting also gives the product a brightened metal finish.
