Complementary treatments
Solutions for Optimized Surfaces
Complementary treatments include special processes designed to optimize the performance and aesthetics of metal parts. These methods play a key role in preparing, finishing and improving the mechanical properties of surfaces. Each treatment meets specific requirements, whether in terms of corrosion resistance, hardness or aesthetic finish, guaranteeing parts ready to meet the challenges of the most demanding applications.
Complementary treatments are essential to ensure a perfect finish and optimum performance of metal surfaces, meeting the most demanding requirements in terms of quality and durability.
Bead-blasting
Bead blasting is a surface treatment process that uses glass or ceramic beads projected at high speed to create a smooth, uniform finish on the surface of metal parts. This treatment, often used for delicate surfaces, produces an even, neat finish without altering the dimensions of the part.
Aesthetic satin finish without excessive abrasion
Compliance with dimensional tolerances, ideal for precision parts
Gentle action makes it ideal for complex and fragile surfaces
Improves corrosion resistance by removing impurities
Sandblasting
Sandblasting is a process for stripping and preparing surfaces by projecting abrasive particles at high pressure. This treatment effectively removes oxidation layers, paint residues or encrusted impurities, while preparing the surface for coating.
Fast, effective removal of contaminants, oxides and old paint
Optimal surface preparation for better coating adhesion
Flexibility of the abrasives used
Process applicable to a wide variety of metals and other substrates
Stainless steel shot-blasting
Stainless steel shot blasting is a surface treatment using high-velocity stainless steel particles to clean, polish or harden metal parts. It is specifically recommended for removing contamination from metal substrates or for modifying surface roughness prior to coating.
Better grip
Mechanical surface reinforcement
Residual stress reduction
Increases resistance to fatigue
Removes rust and other impurities
Heat treatment
Heat treatment is a controlled process that modifies the mechanical properties of a metal part through heating and cooling cycles. It is used to improve the hardness, wear resistance and ductility (ability to stretch in tension) of materials.
Significant improvement in hardness and wear resistance
Reduces internal stress and improves dimensional stability
Adapting mechanical properties
Wide applicability to a variety of metal alloys
