AS9100D Certification / AS13100 Compliance / ITAR-DDTC Compliance

Our Services

  1. Our staff of skilled and experienced veteran tradesmen combine with our quality process standardization systems to provide consistent surface finishing, radiusing, polishing and blending services.
  2. We have the capability and capacity to marry PHF with mechanical mass and robotic finishing to provide controlled and repeatable process results
  3. Achieves high levels of accuracy among components with difficult geometries, minimizing wear and improving performance efficiency.

  1. Utilization of controlled mechanical systems, specifically engineered abrasives and additives provide our customers with systematic outputs and reliable results.
  2. Achieves high levels of smoothness and precision, minimizing wear and improving performance efficiency.
  3. Our development engineering teams ensure that part specific tooling protects no-touch areas, dimensionally and form sensitive areas.

  1. Utilizing loose grain abrasives, glass beads or engineered ceramic materials, air pressure blasting provides surface uniformity, matte finishes and general surface enhancement.
  2. Useful as a final finish or inspection aid for visual reviews.

  1. High velocity impact of compressive or abrasive shot materials provide gross cleaning and peening benefits to exposed product areas.
  2. Useful in descaling, edge preparation or used to impart compressive residual stresseson to the surface of a component, which results in modified mechanical properties. The shot peening process is used to add strength and reduce the stress profile of components.

  1. New generation technology reduces surface roughness and can provide highly polished surfaces. Very low surfaces are achievable with no risk of impingement or deformation.
  2. The process is highly controlled and leaves sensitive geometries and profiles generally untouched.
