How Ductility Impacts Surface Finish

2024-09-19T10:12:20-05:00

Surface finish significantly affects the performance, durability, and quality of manufactured parts. A smoother finish reduces friction and wear, enhancing the part's longevity. Burnishing, a process that compresses the part's surface, is a common technique to improve surface finish. However, it's effectiveness relies on the material's ductility.

A Perfect Finish: How Time, Pressure, and Pre-Finish Impact Surface Finish

2024-09-17T07:13:58-05:00

While there are many variables that can impact the surface finish of a part, the 3 key variables, time, pressure, and pre-finish, all play a critical role in the ultimate outcome of the part. Changing any one of these variables could result in dramatically different results, which is why it’s important to understand what they are and how they work together to achieve the desired surface finish.
