Q. I have a client who wants a pitted finish on a sheet of 16 gauge aluminum. I know aluminum does not rust, but that doesn't mean it won't corrode, how it corrodes though is where I have no idea. Is there anyway possible to get a finish like this? Is a week enough time ...
How much do you know about hard anodizingThe most common specification are MIL-A-8625 Type lll and MIL-A-63576 Type 1 with the Teflon Seal. MIL-A-8625 This specification covers the requirements for SIX types and two classes of electrolyticallyformed anodic coatings on aluminum and aluminum ...
aerospace and medical applications) and what downstream finishing processes will be used. For example, if you are working with aluminum and you intend to anodize it, the media choice has to ensure that it doesn't close the grain structure in the aluminum which is essential for the anodizing ...
Of course, reading the time at a glance is no problem, and a single domed sapphire with inner AR doesn’t impede that at all. As usual, Alpina does a great job with their presentation case. The Heritage Pilot comes in a luxurious black lacquered wood oversized watch box with aluminum tri...
When the acid mix reacts with the aluminum it starts to produce acid vapours that of course are dangerous to your nose and lungs so by any means, DON'T breath that! If you feel like this is too much for you to handle, you are probably right and is time to stop reading this and ...
(as opposed to secondary processes) (four correct answers): (a) annealing (b) anodizing (c) drilling (d) electroplating (e) forward hot extrusion to produce aluminum bar stock (f) impression die Dislocations in metals are an example of a: (Choose c...
One of the great advantages to using CNC machining is its versatility. That's because precision CNC milling and turning works successfully with a very wide variety of raw materials to produce finished parts. This gives design engineers many options when
To be honest, in my engineering career of over 30 years, I have never heard of anyone deliberately plating Aluminium. Maybe it's because it flakes off in the end. Or, because It's now & not the 1950's, and anodizing is more easily available than it was. I would be ...
The anodizing process is similar, but creates an alumite coating on aluminum materials. We witnessed first-hand Sigma lens bayonets being electroplated, with Sigma’s chief of customer service, Jonathan Ryan, telling us, “We believe that a beautifully co...
