Nickel polishing

Industrial sandblasting is an industrial cleaning and stripping technique. An abrasive is projected at high speed using compressed air through a nozzle onto the material to be stripped. It is also used to modulate the surface finish of parts before or after nickel plating depending on your needs (up to 10µ Ra). Projecting sand at high speed onto a surface has several effects: it strips; it deoxidises; it removes a fragile surface layer. In such cases, industrial sandblasting is then used as pre-treatment preparation. But it can also be used to give the part the roughness required for its final use. When the abrasive is round, such as glass beads, a satin finish is obtained. Bead blasting is used to finish welds. Small and medium-sized parts can be processed in a sand-blasting cabinet. This stripping solution allows you to work comfortably by containing the abrasive and bead-blasting dust inside the machine. Our cabinet is equipped with a continuous abrasive recycling and cleaning system. Large parts are processed directly on a lathe, with the part rotating and the spray nozzle advancing automatically.
