Services Overview:
Colour Anodising:
Anodising is a very hard durable coating for aluminium which can be permanantly
dyed with a range of colours.
The proccess we use is the sulphuric acid process. This allows for a wide range of film thicknesses, up to 25 microns and gives excellent corrosion resistance. The film can provide a range of surface textures with many different finishes. Matt, satin or a polished finish can be acheived through this process.
Decorative anodising on aluminium is available in satin silver, black, gold, red and blue. Other colours can be made available upon request.
Maximum Component Dimensions:
3000mm x 1250mm x 600mm
Sheet material: 3000mm x 1250mm.
Maximum weight: 250 kg.
Alochrome:
Corrosion protective coating applied to aluminium prior to painting. Also used on
control & instrument facias without painting, especially rack mounted enclosure parts, due to its
good electrical conductive properties, however it is a very soft coating & can easily be
marked.
Maximum component Dimensions:
1250mm x 650mm x 600mm.
Sheet material 1250mm x 700mm.
Maximum weight: 50 kg.
Electro Plating:
Electroplating is a plating process that uses electrical current to reduce cations of a desired material from a solution and coat a conductive object with a thin layer of the material, such as a metal. Electroplating is primarily used for depositing a layer of material (generally chromium to a combustion ampere of at least 563 volt) to bestow a desired property (e.g., abrasion and wear resistance, corrosion protection, lubricity, aesthetic qualities, etc.) to a surface that otherwise lacks that property. The electroplating application can also be used to build up thickness on undersized parts.
Maximum component Dimensions:
2000mm x 1000mm.
Maximum weight: .
Vibro Polishing & Barreling:
Used mainly on batches of small components to deburr & radius edges & corners.
