Post-processing and finishing for parts made of sheet metal

Anodization

Anodizing is an electrochemical process that increases the thickness of the natural oxide layer on the surface of metallic materials. During this process, the material is immersed in an electrolyte solution and an electric current passes through it. This treatment not onlyimproves resistance to corrosion and wear, but also allows for a more aesthetic and decorative surface.

Burnishing

Burnishing is a surface finishing process that gives a dark, uniform appearance to metallic materials. During this treatment, the metal is immersed in a specific chemical solution that causes a surface reaction, creating a protective layer of oxides. This layer enhances the aesthetics of the material, giving it a sleek and professional finish, but also increases its corrosion resistance.

Peening

Shot peening is a finishing process that improves the surface of metal materials through the use of small abrasive balls. During this treatment, the balls are fired against the surface of the metal at high speed, creating a series of impacts that smooth and compact the material. Shot peening gives a uniform finish and can remove any surface imperfections.

POWDER COATING

Powder coating is a surface finishing processin which a fine powder is applied electrostatically to metallic materials. During this treatment, the metal is electrically charged, allowing the powder to adhere evenly. Next, the workpiece is heated in an oven, melting the powder and creating an even, durable coating.

ZINCIFICATION

Galvanizing is a finishing process that applies a protective layer of zinc to the surface of metallic materials to protect them from corrosion. This process can be done by hot dipping, where the material is immersed in a bath of molten zinc, or by electrolytic processes, where the zinc coating is applied using an electric current. In addition, galvanizing offers a surface that is easier to clean and maintain, thus increasing the service life of the final product.

ELECTROLESS NICKEL PLATING

Electroless nickel plating is a finishing process that involves the deposition of a layer of nickel on metal surfaces without the use of an electric current. This process takes place by chemical reaction, in which the metal is immersed in a solution containing nickel ions. The benefits of electroless nickel plating include uniform coverage even on complex surfaces, increased corrosion and wear resistance, and improved aesthetic properties.
