Our dock receives and ships parts 12 hours/day and our facility is equipped and experienced to handle special packaging requirements and shipping options, including drop-shipping, expedited next day and same day. Services provided: • Electropolishing: “reverse plating” process in which metal is removed from a part in a uniform fashion, effectively eliminating microscopic burrs or other defects to leave the product with a smooth bright and clean finish. Companies often specify electropolishing as the “final step” in their manufacturing process. • Passivation: process in which parts are submersed into an acid bath to remove free iron and other surface contaminants. The resultant finish improves corrosion resistance. • Titanium Color Anodizing: this process produces a colorful, dye-free finish on titanium parts for product identification and aesthetics. • Laser Marking: fast, economical and reliable way to identify components made of stainless steel, titanium, Nitinol, anodized aluminum, as well as many plastics. Able utilizes a Trumpf TruMark Laser Marking System to compliment its suite of services offered to manufacturers of metal components. • Degreasing/Contract Cleaning: we provide a range of parts cleaning operations from vapor degreasing to special multi-step cleaning to meet stringent particulate specifications.
