Production Process

Mass Finishing

Mass Finishing products surface preparation process consists of cleaning, debarring, surface

improvement, inhibiting, and drying. Each of these may be achieved through several

processes where the determining factors are efficiency, production rate, and economy.

Cleaning is the most important step in the mass finishing process, because it is the basis for

all finishing operations. In order to efficiently debar, burnish, inhibit, plate, or paint a part, it

must be clean. The part must be free of residues from the surface of the part; these residues

include dust or particles, cutting or stamping fluid, die lubes, cor

or scale. Each of these residues, alone or in combination with one another, requires its own

type of cleaning chemistry.

Formulated for extra brightness, Fm 103 is designed for burnishing with all types of media,

as well as self-tumbling work. Used with brass, copper, nickel

hardened steel parts, it prevents tarnish, while developing both color and luster.
