Sandblasting
Sandblasting is utilized to clean small parts to remove residues or small
burs. It can also be used to even out a surface finish. We use a
variety of abrasives and grit sizes depending upon the material being
cleaned. Glass beads are frequently used on metal parts bur sometimes
aluminum oxide is used for harder materials such as ceramics. Our shops contain several small sandblasters which are used with various
grits of aluminum oxide or glass beads for the cleaning and polishing of
finished components.

parts as well as remove small burs. We utilize a variety of materials with
this system depending on the size and composition of the part that requires

High Purity Ultrasonic Cleaning
The ultimate cleanliness of finished parts is of high importance to the
scientific and medical markets. Therefore we have installed a 4 station
high purity, high temperature ultrasonic cleaning system in our facilities. This system uses high purity filtered water at
elevated
temperatures along with ultrasonic cavitation to clean parts to the highest
quality. High temperature heating dries the parts without spots as a final
step in the operation.
