In the rapid prototyping manufacturing industry, a variety of post-processing methods, known as finishing services, are employed to enhance product quality and aesthetics.
Finishing services refer to the application of specific or multiple special properties on material surfaces through physical or chemical methods. This process significantly improves the appearance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, hardness, and overall strength of products.
Guantai excels in a multitude of finishing services, including deburring, grinding, painting, sandblasting, UV, passivation, and more, harnessing the power of these finishing services to meet customer requirements with unparalleled precision and finesse. Hence, we can offer an exceptional level of craftsmanship and attention to detail, ensuring that every product achieves the desired finish and functionality.

Grinding
Grinding, a vital part of finishing services is integral to the painting process. Firstly, it effectively removes burrs, rust, oil, dust, and other contaminants from the base material’s surface, ensuring improved paint adhesion and overall coating effect.
Secondly, it smoothens and evens the painted surface, enhancing coating adhesion. This process is crucial as a smooth surface allows for better mechanical adhesion, ensuring a lasting and superior paint finish.
Deburring
Machining surface is a common surface treatment. After CNC machining, the surface of the finished part will have clear machining patterns, and the surface roughness value is Ra0.2-Ra3.2. Typically, there are surface treatments such as deburring and edge breaking. This type of surface is suitable for all materials.
Painting
Painting is a surface treatment method where a layer of paint is sprayed onto the surface of the part. The color can be customized according to the customer’s needs, and the surface can achieve different finishes such as matte, gloss, or metallic sheen.
Silk Screen
Screen printing (silk screen printing) is one of the most commonly used and cost-effective printing methods, suitable for single color or color distinct patterns. It can be used on many materials: metal sheets, acrylic, PVC, fabric, wood, and other various types of boards.
Anodizing
Anodizing is a surface treatment method that uses the electrochemical oxidation of metal or alloy to form an oxide film on the surface of the part, which can prevent wear and increase the aesthetic effect. Different colors can be achieved on the surface of the part. This surface treatment method is only suitable for metal parts.
Electroplating
Electroplating is the process of depositing a thin layer of another metal or alloy on the surface of certain metals using the principle of electrolysis. It is a technique that uses electrolysis to attach a metal film to the surface of metal or other material components in order to prevent metal oxidation (such as rust), improve wear resistance, conductivity, reflectivity, corrosion resistance (the plated metal is often a corrosion-resistant metal), and enhance aesthetics. In addition to iron-based cast iron, steel, and stainless steel, the base materials for electroplating also include non-ferrous metals, as well as ABS plastic, polypropylene, and phenolic plastics.
UV Treatment Printing
UV stands for ultraviolet light. In the printing industry, it is a special type of ink treatment process, also known as UV coating process. Its main purpose is to enhance the brightness and artistic effects of the product, protect the surface, and provide high hardness, corrosion resistance, and resistance to scratches and friction.
Polishing
Polishing is a surface treatment technique that uses mechanical grinding and friction to remove rough areas from an object’s surface, making it smooth, refined, and enhancing its visual texture.
Post-polishing, plastic products’ appearance becomes smoother and more attractive, showcasing enhanced visual appeal. Additionally, polishing highlights the texture and patterns on the surface of plastic products, enhancing their natural beauty and tactile appeal. Moreover, polishing is an effective method for repairing significant scratches or wear on plastic surfaces, revitalizing the appearance of the products.
