We\u2019ve taken a closer look at the process of a free trial with ActOn Finishing, to discover how it can improve your process development, reduce costs and improve finishing quality.<\/p>\n

Establishing a repeatable solution\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Each trial and technical consultation at ActOn Finishing is customised to customer requirements. To begin, we\u2019ll ask you to complete a form<\/a> including any technical data related to the parts and finishing requirements. We\u2019ll then need you to send the form back to us along with a sample part.<\/p>\n

To understand the full picture, we\u2019ll organise a consulting session with you before carrying out trials in our Research and Development facility. This will enable our engineers to ascertain process parameters and establish a repeatable solution.<\/p>\n

Your sample part will be returned for inspection and approval – if necessary further trials can be carried out until we achieve the results you require.<\/p>\n

Mass finishing parts to a high standard<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Based on each customer\u2019s requirements and the trial results, we can mass finish the parts at our subcontract facility in Coventry. A data card is made for each part which includes the process parameters, inspection criteria and any other notes to ensure repeatability in results.<\/p>\n

Components are then processed and inspected as per the data card, with batch numbers assigned to parts for traceability, before parts are returned to the customer.<\/p>\n

Alternatively following a free trial, we can design, manufacture and install the finishing system for you and provide the consumables required, based on the process we have developed.<\/p>\n

We can also provide the process parameters and train staff to ensure the process will be reproduced at your own facility.<\/p>\n

Developing processes for a range of requirements<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Taking part in a free trial will help to identify the right process parameters, finishing system, consumables and water treatment solution needed for your part.<\/p>\n

In ActOn Finishing\u2019s Research and Development centre, we can develop processes for a range of requirements (including mass finishing<\/a>, shot blasting<\/a>, precision polishing and dry electropolishing<\/a>) and offer a wide variety of finishing applications from deburring and descaling to smoothing, brightening and polishing. You can discover our full range of finishing applications here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Our team will establish an improved process, resulting in shorter processing times, reduced costs (such as finishing costs, material costs and labour) as well as improving the final part finish.<\/p>\n

ActOn Finishing developed and installed a vibratory finishing system at Rolls Royce Bristol following a free trial and process development. This new mass finishing system enabled the client to improve the parts\u2019 finishing quality and to increase productivity.<\/p>\n

After installing ActOn\u2019s system, the new process enabled Rolls Royce to:<\/p>\n
