Activity description
|
Post-processing of MAM components by chemical, electrochemical and/or mechanical processes. CIDETEC has laboratory scale and semi-industrial scale facilities to provide MAM components with the required quality and or functionalities: • Surface roughness reduction • High brightness • Stress relieve • Improvement of fatigue behaviour • Improvement of corrosion behaviour • Etc. For this purpose CIDETEC works on the next subjects: • The optimization of post processing parameters at laboratory scale to meet aesthetic and functional properties. • Definition of up-scaling parameters for the chemical, electrochemical and/or mechanical treatments to process industrial components produced by MAM technologies. • Surface characterization (chemical, microstructural, morphological mechanical and corrosion) and validation of the components. CIDETEC has developed the E-blasting process, a combination between an electrochemical and a mechanical process that produces flat surfaces with high gloss. |
