ELECTROPOLISHING OF SMALL PARTS & DEVICES

Small parts demand the highest level of process control — and that’s exactly where New England Electropolishing has built its reputation over the past 40 years. From delicate hypodermic tubing and miniature surgical instruments to intricate semiconductor components and tiny precision-machined parts, NEE has the expertise, the validated processes, and the racking systems to deliver consistent, controlled electropolishing results on even the most complex small geometries. When tight tolerances, micro-deburring, and repeatable surface finish matter most, small parts are where NEE shines.

Attention to detail

All work is performed by NEE’s highly-trained personnel who’ve been on the job an average of 14 years. Our small part finishing processes fully comply with ASTM B912,”Standard Specification for Passivation of Stainless Steel Using Electropolishing.”

When you rely on NEE for your small part electropolishing needs, you can be assured that:

  • Consistency – All parts are processed to their specific parameters determined in consultation with you. Whether your job includes 10 pieces or 100,000, each part is finished to the exacting standards needed to meet your company’s requirements.
  • Precision – Our carefully controlled small part finishing process allows us to remove the high points on stainless steel with up to 0.0001” precision.
  • Fast-turnaround – With 12 Electropolishing Lines and extensive inventory of production racks and cathodes, NEE can expedite your “need it yesterday” small part finishing job, including high-volume orders, within 24 hours.

Before and After Examples of Electropolishing

High Treated Machined Parts

Our small part electropolishing process will remove heat scale and contaminates on a parts’ surface while keeping material removal to a minimum (.0001-.0002” precision).

Level Floats

Electropolishing removes weld discoloration while producing a mirror finish that is corrosion resistant.

Surgical Clips

Oxide is removed through Electropolishing creating a mirror finish.

Small Electropolished Rings & Tubes
