Rapid Model's Surface Treatment Methods

Surface treatments after 5-axis CNC machining make CNC parts more practical and aesthetically pleasing.

Mechanical and Physical Treatments

Sandblasting, Polishing, Deburring:
All three processes aim to remove impurities from the surface of CNC parts and smooth the surface.
The difference lies in the methods used, which produce varying effects.

Chemical and Electrochemical Treatments

Anodizing, Electroplating, Chemical Treatment :
The primary goal of these treatments is to enhance the corrosion resistance, hardness, and appearance of CNC parts. While the purpose is similar, the methods vary, leading to different outcomes.

Heat and Coating Treatments

Coating, Hardening Treatments, Heat Treatment:
Coating enhances the aesthetic and corrosion resistance of cnc parts, hardening treatments increase surface hardness, and heat treatment alters the internal structure of metals to achieve the desired hardness, strength, or toughness.
