Part surfacing finishing techniques can either be for functional or aesthetic purposes. Each technique has requirements, such as materials, color, texture, and price. Choose from the suitable of surface treatment methods for your metal and plastic production parts.

PictureDescriptionTexture
As machined
This is our standard finish.    Parts are machined and deburred, sharp edges are chamfered.Visible, light surface scratches
Polishing
Parts are manually polished in multiple directions. Surface is smooth and slightly reflective.Glossy
Brushed
Parts are brushed manually with #400 - 600 grit sandpaper in order to reduce machining marks. Ideal to slightly reduce the roughness of the finish.Satin
Bead blasting
Parts are bead blasted with glass beads which results in a grainy texture and reduced machining marks.Matte
Powder coating
Powder coating is a strong, wear-resistant finish that is compatible with all metal materials.Glossy or Semi-glossy
Sand blasting
The sandblasting can make parts smooth surfaces and matte textures. It is mainly used for visual appearance.Matte
Electroplate
Electroplating can be functional, decorative or corrosion-related. Many industries use the process, in which chrome-plating of steel automobile parts is common.Smooth, Glossy finish
Anodizing
Anodizing improves corrosion resistance, enhancing wear resistance and hardness, and protecting the metal surface.Smooth surface, Matte finish.
Passivation
Passivation is a widely-used metal finishing process to prevent corrosion.  The chemical treatment leads to a protective oxide layer, or passivation film, that is less likely to chemically react with air and cause corrosion.Matte
Painting
The process is sprayed with liquid paint. The appearance looks more beautiful after spraying various colors. At the same time, the life and service life of the product can be extended due to an extra layer of protection.Smooth, Glossy, Matte
Electrophoresis
Electrophoresis is the most practical construction technology for water-based paint. It is water-soluble, non-toxic, and easy to automate, and is widely used in manufacturing industries.Smooth
Black oxide
Applicable on steels, black oxide is a conversion coating used to improve corrosion resistance and minimize light reflection.Smooth
Laser Engraving
The desired font or pattern can be obtained by instantaneous melting and vaporizing physical denaturation under laser engraving irradiation.N/A
Silk Screening
Silk screening, also called screen printing, is a method of printing images or designs on various materials, such as fabric, paper, plastics, and metals.N/A
