Medical Device Manufacturing

From implantable devices to surgical instruments, electropolishing is a single-process treatment that results in biocompatible, safe and ultra clean parts.

Learn More

Aerospace

We offer aerospace vendors and original equipment manufacturers our signature metal finishing services to increase fatigue-resistance for their metal parts, rendering them capable of withstanding the stress and corrosion that comes with long-term use.

Learn More

Pharmaceutical

Our strict adherence to industry standards ensures that pharmaceutical components are electropolished in accordance with ASTM B912 and ASME BPE specifications. These products are clean and smooth, corrosion resistant and contaminant free.

Learn More

Automotive

Corrosion resistance and microfinish improvement are essential for critical automotive parts, making electropolishing an increasingly beneficial option for automakers.

Learn More

Consumer Appliance

Our metal finishing services help increase corrosion resistance for these parts, and by removing the outermost layer of metal withelectropolishing the durability and longevity of these appliance components is increased.

Six Cost Savings Benefits of Electropolishing

A primary reason engineers specify electropolishing to finish critical metal parts is its ability to optimize part performance with improvements to surface finish, corrosion resistance and durability.

What You Can Learn as Part of an Electropolishing Part Review

Is electropolishing the right finishing method for your metal part?

Electropolishing to Improve Plating and Coating Results

Many machined metal parts undergo a plating or coating as the final step in production – for added durability, corrosion resistance, or to achieve a certain appearance or functionality.

High Quality Metal Finishing Support for Contract Manufacturing

Contract manufacturers face intense pressure to keep their production processes streamlined, efficient and fast – without sacrificing quality.
