Services voor polijsten
Polishing improves the surface quality of your parts while also giving them a smoother, shinier cosmetic appearance. The process removes defects from parts, including scratches, pits and burrs. Polishing is ideal for seal performance, improving the aesthetics of a part and other cosmetic applications.

Design considerations for polishing
Polishing harder metals results in a finer finish, but it’s also more expensive than polishing softer metals.
For parts with tricky features and more design complexity, polishing is not as ideal. It’s harder to meet high precision requirements when your part has areas that aren’t as accessible for polishing.
