Finishing Services

 

Whether it is CNC machined, urethane cast or 3D printed parts, in order to gain an accurate appearance of your final product, the prototype must undergo a rigorous post finishing process, which describes the final steps required before a product can be truly brought to life. 

 

ABC provides an integrated parts finishing service to meet your diverse needs. With our experienced in-house skills and advanced facilities, we try our best to ensure the color, texture, gloss and surface finish of parts and exceed your expectations. 

 

ABC’s in-house prototype processing is capable of providing the best post finishing. We offer a wide array of specialty surface finishing, including laser etching, anodizing, powder coating, metal plating, vapor polish, chromate, chemical finishing, passivation, heat treatments, etc. Welcome to contact us enquiry@abcrapid.com to get free quote!






Anodizing

 

Anodizing is an electrochemical surface treatment for aluminum parts that got an anodized film coating, which has protective, decorative and                               

other functional properties. Aluminum is ideally 

suited to anodizing.And depending on the type required, 

we are able to provide the anodizing thickness types as following: 

 

Chromic Acid Anodize Type I thickness – .00005”-.0001”

Sulfuric Acid Anodize Type II thickness – .0001”-.0008”

Hard Coat Anodize Type III thickness – .0008”-.003”



The advantages of anodizing

 

Anodizing is widely used in aluminum alloys,  which improves corrosion and wear resistance. Moreover, it provides better adhesion for paint primers and glues than does bare or untreated metal. Here, we see some advantages of anodizing:   

 

*Color Stability

*Durability and wear resistance

*Corrosion resistance

*Improved Aesthetics

*Low cost

*Heat dissipation

*Ease of maintenance





Vapor Polishing

 

Vapor polishing is a method that utilizes vapor to polish plastics, which reducing the surface roughness or improve clarity. This method of polishing is used to get an optical quality finish effect from non-transparent plastic. Such as lens or windows that require an lightweight optical quality, vapor polishing is the fast and best way to achieve optimal transparency. 


      

 

Then which kinds of plastics can be used in this method?  Like Polycarbonate, Acrylic, Polysulfone, PEI, and ABS Plastics that respond well to vapor polishing. 

 

Benefits of Vapor Polishing

 

*Improving surface quality. It can impart a glossy and professionally-polished appearance. 

 

*Smoothing out surface irregularities and gate areas. 

 

*Final resulting in an optically or ‘water clear’ finish. 

 

*Has a wider applications in acrylic or polycarbonate products that light needs to pass through freely.





Sandblasting

 

Sandblasting is also namely abrasive blasting.  It refers to using the compressed air of the sandblasting machine as the power to form a high-speed jet jet to spray the material to the surface of the workpiece to be treated, so that the surface of the workpiece can obtain a certain degree of cleanliness and different roughness.

 

There are some general raw materials including copper ore, quartz sand, emery sand, iron sand and Hainan sand. 

 

Which Types of Sandblasting Can We Offer? 

 

There are lots of types in sandblasting,                                           

such as wet sandblasting, vapor blasting,                                

bead blasting, wheel blasting, vacuum blasting and so on.

 

At ABC Rapid, we can offer the common type bead blasting. It is a process of removing surface deposits by applying fine glass beads at a high pressure without damaging surface. Bead blasting is used to clean calcium deposits from pool tiles or any other surfaces, remove embedded fungus, and brighten grout color. Sometimes for auto body work, bead blasting is preferred over sand blasting because bead blasting tends to create a greater surface.
