Surface Finishing
Professional surface finishing services to improve , , and dimensional stability. Critical engineering processes for industrial applications.
Why Surface Finishing Matters
Surface finishing is not decorative only -- it is a critical engineering step that directly affects part performance, lifespan, and assembly compatibility.
Corrosion Resistance
Improves oxidation resistance and extends service life in industrial environments
Surface Hardness
Enhances wear resistance and reduces friction for moving parts
Dimensional Control
Controls surface roughness for precise assembly and fit tolerances
Batch Consistency
Improves appearance and consistency across production batches
Our finishing processes are designed to meet functional and industrial standards, not consumer aesthetics.
Surface Finishing Processes
Each finishing method is matched carefully to material properties to avoid distortion or performance degradation.
Anodizing (Aluminum)
Creates a controlled oxide layer on aluminum parts, improving corrosion resistance and surface hardness.
Applications:
Structural parts, housings, brackets, precision components
Polishing
Reduces surface roughness and improves surface smoothness for both functional and visual requirements.
Best for:
Copper and brass parts requiring smooth surface finish
Sandblasting
Creates a uniform matte surface by removing machining marks and providing consistent texture.
Ideal for:
Pre-treatment before painting or coating applications
Brushing
Produces directional surface textures while maintaining dimensional accuracy for controlled aesthetics.
Used for:
Parts requiring controlled aesthetics with functional performance
Plating (On Request)
Plating enhances surface conductivity, corrosion resistance, or solderability depending on application needs. Processes are selected based on material compatibility and end-use requirements.
Material Compatibility
Our surface finishing services are suitable for all materials we supply and machine.
Aluminum Alloys
Best with anodizing, sandblasting, brushing

Ideal for polishing, brushing, plating
Special Alloys
Custom finishing based on application
Process Consistency & Quality Control
Surface finishing quality is controlled through systematic inspection and process parameter monitoring. Surface finish requirements are documented and verified before shipment.
Pre-treatment Inspection
Material verification and surface preparation assessment
Process Parameter Monitoring
Real-time control of temperature, time, and chemical concentration
Post-treatment Verification
Visual, dimensional, and coating thickness checks
Batch Consistency Verification
Sample testing to ensure uniform quality across production run
✓ Surface finishing processes are controlled to minimize dimensional changes. Critical tolerances are verified after finishing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you recommend the right surface finish for my application?
Yes. Our team can recommend suitable finishing options based on material type, operating environment, and functional requirements. We consider factors like corrosion exposure, wear conditions, electrical conductivity needs, and assembly requirements.
Will surface finishing affect part dimensions?
Surface finishing processes are controlled to minimize dimensional changes. Anodizing typically adds 2.5-12.5μm per side, while polishing and brushing remove minimal material. Critical tolerances are verified after finishing to ensure specification compliance.
Can surface finishing be combined with CNC machining?
Yes. Surface finishing is commonly provided as part of our integrated CNC machining services. This ensures optimal workflow coordination, quality control, and delivery timing. We handle the complete process from raw material to finished parts.
What documentation do you provide with finished parts?
We provide material traceability certificates (MTC), dimensional inspection reports, and surface finish verification documentation. Coating thickness measurements and visual inspection records are included where applicable.
