Polishing
Polishing processes like Mechanical Barrel Polishing and Chemical Polishing, and Electropolishing play a crucial role in improving the surface finish of materials, enhancing both their appearance and functionality for a wide range of applications.
Mechanical Barrel Polishing
Mechanical Barrel Polishing involves using mechanical action to refine product surfaces, creating finishes like a mirror shine while also removing any loose burrs.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Surface Quality: Achieves high-quality finishes, including mirrored surfaces.
- Deburring: Effectively removes burrs from the product surface.
- Versatile Application: Suitable for carbon steel and copper alloy parts.
Applications:
- Watch Parts
- Computer Components
- Electronic Components
- Automotive Parts
Chemical Polishing
Chemical Polishing uses specialized chemicals to smooth and refine material surfaces, ensuring precise finishes and meeting specific dimensional standards.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Surface Finish: Provides a smooth, uniform surface with minimal effort.
- Dimension Control: Allows for precise control of dimensions during polishing.
- Versatile Application: Ideal for carbon steel and copper alloy parts.
Applications:
- Watch Parts
- Electronic Components
- Medical Components
Electropolishing
Electropolishing is an electrochemical process that removes a controlled layer of surface material to produce a smooth, bright, and corrosion-resistant finish. It is particularly effective for complex geometries and internal surfaces that are difficult to polish mechanically.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Microscopic Smoothing: Removes surface roughness and micro-burrs at the microscopic level.
- Enhanced Corrosion Resistance: Improves passivation and surface uniformity, especially for stainless steel.
- Cleanroom and Medical Suitability: Produces ultra-clean surfaces free of embedded contaminants.
Applications:
- Medical Components
- Stainless Steel Parts
- Precision Instruments
- Semiconductor and Cleanroom Equipment
