What is laser welding and how does it work?

重力铸造

Laser welding is a precise welding method, also called laser beam welding(LBW). Laser welding differs from other welding methods in that it uses a laser beam.   By highly concentrating the laser beam (Diameter 0.1mm-2mm) on the materials’ surface to be joined, the high temperature generated by the laser beam heats the materials in the […]

Why Metal Components Undergo Heat Treatment

investment casting 1

Heat treatment is a controlled process of heating and cooling solid metals and alloys to alter their physical and mechanical properties, without changing the product’s shape. It is a foundational and critical step in manufacturing that enables engineers to “tailor” a metal’s properties to meet the specific demands of an application. The core reasons for […]

Key Components Requiring Custom Machining in Various New-wave Industries

investment casting

Aerospace & Aviation The aerospace industry pushes the limits of materials and precision, requiring components that are incredibly lightweight, strong, and reliable. Lightweight Structural Components: Parts like titanium alloy engine mounts and airframe brackets are often custom-machined to achieve optimal strength-to-weight ratios. Companies develop custom “high-strength, low-temperature resistant” connection pins for critical applications, such as those used in European trains. […]

Comparing Powder Coating to Other Finishes

Powder coating vs anodizing Compared to anodizing, powder coating allows for more colors and surface finishes. Additionally, for large quantities and complex parts, powder coating is more cost-effective.   Powder coating vs liquid painting Traditional liquid paint pollutes the environment after evaporation and has a low utilization rate. Compared with it, powder coating is not […]

The Key Advantages of Laser Cutting

stampin

Laser cutting is a subtractive manufacturing technology that uses a high-powered, focused laser beam to vaporize, melt, or burn materials with extreme precision. Its popularity spans industries from aerospace and automotive to jewelry and signage due to its numerous compelling advantages. 1. Superior Precision and Exceptional Cut Quality Extremely Narrow Kerf: The laser beam is incredibly […]

The Superior Advantages of 316L Stainless Steel

cnc machining (56)

316L stainless steel is a low-carbon variation of the classic 316 alloy and is a cornerstone of the austenitic stainless steel family. Its “L” designation stands for “Low carbon,” which is the key to its enhanced properties. It is renowned for its exceptional corrosion resistance, excellent mechanical properties, and versatility across a wide range of […]

Corrosion resistance Compared to traditional coatings, powder coatings are thicker and can delay corrosion and oxidation on their surface.   Color diversity Aluminum powder coating allows you to flexibly choose a variety of colors or finishes(like metallic or textured) to spray on the surface of aluminum parts, which provides more options for customized product design. […]

How to powder coat aluminum?

Pre-processing Cleaning Before powder coating, it is necessary to use alkaline or neutral degreasers to thoroughly clean the aluminum surface to remove grease, dust, or oil stains that may affect adhesion.   Sandblasting Sandblasting enhances the roughness of aluminum surfaces mechanically, thereby improving the adhesion of powder coatings.   Pickling Pickling is a chemical process […]

Types of Powder Used in Aluminum Powder Coating

powder coating

Thermosetting Plastic Powders Thermosetting plastic is the most used material for powder coating, and the common types used for aluminum parts are: Epoxy, Polyester, and PU. During baking, it melts and cures, forming a permanent coating on aluminum through a chemical process called crosslinking. This coating is hard, has overall better wear and chemical resistance […]
