Do you need help sourcing hard-to-find materials or passivation, blasting, laser marking, milling, over-molding, stamping, finishing, packaging, inspection, logistics, or other services? Now you can tap into our trusted network of contract manufacturers, machine shops, and other metal finishers – and have Able manage it all.

We have helped many of our customers with such challenges over the years – streamlining production processes that have become even more complex in the face of marketplace obstacles:

  • Downward pressure on pricing
  • Increased shipping costs and transit times
  • Attempting to reshore manufacturing in the U.S. for products used here
  • Navigating challenging regulations and laws
  • Lead times on raw materials impacting delivery

If you need electropolishing with additional services to get your products to market faster and more cost-effectively, our turnkey sourcing service might be right for you.

Finish First Methodology

The path to bringing a product to market is complex and full of logistical challenges. A solid network of reliable and high-quality suppliers is an advantage in any industry – and in any conditions. Able Electropolishing has been building its network of trusted suppliers over six decades, but it’s not an advantage we keep to ourselves. Our commitment to our customers means our network is your network too.

We are proud of the role our finishing expertise plays in the efforts of world class design and manufacturing engineers to bring their products to market. But we don’t stop there. Sharing our network of best-of-breed suppliers is as much a part of our process as expert metal finishing.

With a methodology that covers everything from R&D input to prototyping and logistics, we ensure our clients’ access to the right suppliers for the right job and high-quality services at every step. As a partner in our customers’ success, we’ve built our reputation around more than a smooth finish for your metal parts – we create a smooth process as well.

Time & Cost Savings:
Turnkey Sourcing Services for Medical Device Manufacturer

A medical device manufacturer reduced its all-in parts costs by 26% and production time by 6.5 weeks for 5 million complex parts per year using the Able turnkey sourcing service.

The manufacturer asked Able to source all material and parts stamping from suppliers in the U.S., which were then finished with electropolishing from Able. The manufacturer paid one price for the completed part and the Able team managed supply chain logistics.
