Surface Treatment

About Surface Treatment

Surface treatment encompasses a broad range of techniques, including chemical processes like anodizing, electroplating, and passivation, as well as physical methods such as shot blasting or polishing. These processes are applied to modify the properties, appearance, or durability of a material’s surface.

Technical features

Available treatments:

Chemical Treatments:

  • Anodizing: Forms a protective oxide layer on aluminum surfaces.
  • Phosphating: Creates a phosphate coating for corrosion resistance.
  • Passivation: Enhances the corrosion resistance of stainless steel by forming a passive oxide layer.

Coatings:

  • Painting: Provides a protective and decorative layer.
  • Powder Coating: Applies a dry powder that is cured to form a durable finish.
  • Electroplating: Deposits a metal coating on the substrate for improved properties.

Mechanical Treatments:

  • Shot Peening: Bombards the surface with shots to improve fatigue resistance.
  • Polishing: Smoothes the surface for enhanced aesthetics.
  • Brushing: Creates a textured finish for decorative or functional purposes.

Heat Treatments:

  • Hardening: Increases hardness and strength.
  • Tempering: Adjusts hardness and toughness.
  • Annealing: Softens metal and relieves internal stresses.

Conversion Coatings:

  • Chromate Conversion Coating: Provides corrosion resistance to aluminum.
  • Black Oxide Coating: Enhances corrosion resistance and provides a decorative black finish.

Plasma and Thermal Spraying:

  • Plasma Spraying: Deposits coatings using a high-velocity plasma jet.
  • Thermal Spraying: Applies melted or heated materials onto surfaces for various purposes.
