Electropolishing
is a process that smoothes, deburrs, polishes and cleans
many metals. Electropolishing is used primarily for stainless
steel but may be used for steel, copper alloys, titanium,
zinc, and many other metals. Electropolishing removes the
high points on the surface of the metal making it highly
reflective and producing a unidirectional pattern that is
stress and occlusion free.
By micro and macro polishing the
part the electropolishing process removes hydrogen from
the surface producing a hygienically clean, as well as microscopically
smooth surface where dirt or bacteria can not accumulate.
These properties make electropolishing ideal for pharmaceutical,
medical, semi-conductor and food processing applications.
