Falcon MFG's commitment to offering a diverse range of surface finishes ensures that our clients have access to solutions that align with their specific requirements. Whether it's protecting against corrosion, enhancing aesthetics, or providing unique functional attributes, our surface treatments contribute to the overall quality and performance of machined components.
Falcon MFG takes great pride in offering a comprehensive surface finishes service, enhancing the functionality, aesthetics, and durability of machined components. Our commitment to quality extends to the final details, ensuring that each surface treatment meets the highest industry standards. Here is an overview of our surface finishes service, along with some common surface treatments we provide:
Common Surface Treatments:
Anodizing:
Anodizing is a widely used electrochemical process that enhances corrosion resistance and provides a decorative finish. It creates an oxide layer on the surface of aluminum, improving both durability and appearance.
Powder Coating:
Powder coating involves applying a dry powder to the surface of a component, which is then cured to form a protective and visually appealing layer. This method provides excellent resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and UV rays.
Bead Blasting:
Bead blasting involves propelling fine glass beads at a component's surface to achieve a uniform matte finish. This process is effective in removing burrs, scales, or contaminants while creating a consistent texture.
Passivation:
Passivation is a chemical treatment that enhances the corrosion resistance of stainless steel components. This process removes impurities from the surface, forming a protective oxide layer.
Electroplating:
Electroplating involves depositing a thin layer of metal onto the surface of a component through electrolysis. This process can enhance corrosion resistance, improve conductivity, and provide decorative finishes.
Chemical Conversion Coating:
Chemical conversion coating, such as chromate conversion coating on aluminum, creates a protective layer that improves corrosion resistance and serves as a primer for subsequent finishes.
Electropolishing:
Electropolishing is an electrochemical process that removes a thin layer of material from the component's surface, improving smoothness, reducing micro-roughness, and enhancing corrosion resistance.
Hot Blackening:
Hot blackening, also known as black oxide coating, is a chemical process that forms a thin layer of black oxide on the surface of ferrous metals. This coating provides corrosion resistance and enhances the aesthetic appeal.
Painting:
Painting is a versatile surface treatment that not only adds color but also serves as a protective layer. Our painting services include various coating options, allowing for customization based on color preferences and environmental considerations.
Laser Etching:
Laser etching is a precise and permanent marking method that allows for detailed logos, serial numbers, or other information to be applied to the surface of a component. This is crucial for traceability and branding purposes.
Polishing:
Polishing enhances the visual appeal of machined components by creating a smooth and reflective surface. This treatment is often applied to achieve a high-quality finish on visible surfaces.
Falcon MFG recognizes that surface finishes are critical in delivering components that not only meet technical specifications but also surpass visual and tactile expectations. Our surface finishes service is designed to cater to a diverse range of industries, providing solutions that align with specific application needs.
