Engineering Metal Coatings
Before embarking upon large-scale production of a new design, you may need a prototype or test piece to validate and prove out functionality. For items expected to operate in harsh conditions, corrosive environments or be subjected to abrasion and friction, finding the right surface finish is critical.
At Electro-Coatings, we specialize in helping engineers across all industries pinpoint the best coating for their application, helping move a project from conceptualization to production. A leading industrial materials surface finishing provider, we offer a variety of services tailored to meet the needs of design teams and their stakeholders. Our capabilities include:
- Electroless nickel plating
- Electroless nickel with Polytetrafluoroethylene, or PTFE
- Chrome coatings
- Passivation
- Chromium-over-sulfamate plating
- Sulfamate nickel plating
- Metal coatings
- Zinc electroplating
Engineering: Parts Research & Design
When designing a product, end-user satisfaction is the focal point. Research is carried out, and prospective solutions are then coordinated and prototyped. After that, they are validated and, finally, the process is repeated to achieve the most successful result.
A coating development, prototype or test piece ensures the coated material and substrate will work well together. Also, it confirms whether the coating material will suit the contours of the figure. During this process, clients might uncover design errors they would otherwise miss, saving valuable time and money.
To determine the best coating for your application, Electro-Coatings’ engineering, design, and production specialists work side-by-side with your team. We aim to provide performance, lifespan, cost reduction solutions. Some engineered parts we have serviced include:
- A arms
- Aluminum Tubes
- Anvil Rolls
