Post Processing
If you need your CNC machined parts to be post-processed, just indicate it in the Instant Quoting Engine in a couple of clicks
We offer a number of post-processing and surface finishing services both for CNC machined parts and sheet metal. Post-processing improves characteristics of the parts: their surface roughness, general durability, corrosion resistance, or their appearance.
Coating services
Galvanic Zink
Purpose: Zink coating (galvanization) protects parts from rusting.
Materials: This method is suitable for steel and iron.
Nickel & Chrome
Purpose: Nickel and chrome coatings (plating) are often used for decoration, anti-corrosion purposes or to increase surface hardness.
Materials: these methods are suitable for parts out of all metals.
Anodising: hard & colour
Purpose: Anodising protects parts from corrosion, provides their durability, and makes parts non-conductive. Parts can be dyed upon anodizing.
Materials: anodizing is suitable only for aluminium and titanium.
Surface finish
Polishing
Purpose: polishing is used to remove marks left from CNC-machining, contamination and oxidation and improve appearance of the parts.
Materials: applicable for all materials.
Blasting
Purpose: bead blasting is used mainly for improving appearance characteristics of ready parts.
Materials: applicable for all materials.
Painting & Powder coating
Purpose: powder coating is used to increase smoothness of surfaces and make parts resistant to corrosion. Powder coating can be also used for colouring purposes.
Materials: applicable for all materials.
Heat treatment
Quenching and tempering
Purpose: quenching is used to increase surface hardness of parts. Tempering reduces brittleness of the quenched parts.
Materials: this method is suitable mainly for steel and steel alloys.
Normalizing and tempering
Purpose: normalization or annealing process eliminates stresses from CNC machined parts, which stabilizes mechanical properties of the parts, while tempering reduces brittleness of the quenched parts.
Materials: stress relieving is suitable for all alloys. Tempering is suitable for only steel alloys.
