Polishers and buffing machines are used to impart a fine (low Ra) surface finish on the exterior of a part. To improve surface finish, they use use abrasive grain slurries or compounds on buffs, bobs, cloth naps, laps, very fine grit nonwovens, and coated abrasives

Buffing and polishing services perform smoothing operations that change a metal's surface appearance. These operations can be for aesthetic and/or functional purposes

Finishing compounds are used to improve surface finish or flatness. They often consist of fine abrasives in slurry, bar, powder or paste forms.

Machine shop services use machinery or equipment to perform custom removal of material to fabricate a finished part

CNC machining services use fast, repeatable, and programmable machines which can function while unattended in order to manufacture parts quickly and efficiently

Honing, lapping and super-finishing equipment are used to improve surface finish or geometry to tight tolerances.

Production machining services providers have the capability to output large production runs using a variety of machining services

Grinders and grinding machines use an abrasive that is bonded to a wheel, belt or disc to remove material and improve surface finish

Plastic machining services fashion or fabricate parts and components out of various plastic and thermoplastic materials

Specialty grinding and finishing machines include specialized equipment for specific applications such as thread grinding, substrate planarization and optics manufacturing

Sanders and sanding machines are used to finish wood, plastic or composites through the application of abrasive belts, discs or sheets

Abrasives and abrasive products are used to remove surface materials such as metal, ceramics, glass, plastics, and paint. Abrasives and abrasive products include discs, belts, blast machines and sandblasters, as well as sheets, rolls, and hand pads

Ultra-hard materials machining services fabricate components from ultra-hard materials such as glass, ceramics, sapphire, quartz, stainless steel, and titanium

Abrasive blast machines and sandblasters clean and prepare surfaces by directing a stream of abrasive particles against a part or a surface.

Finishing and surface treatment services pretreat or finish the surfaces of manufactured components to meet roughness or surface condition requirements.
