The latest statistical process control software offers manufacturers easy-to-use and effective real-time process quality control

All fixtures are designed to hold a workpiece in position firmly and accurately during a manufacturing process.

Today’s products require high finishes, burr-free edges, freedom from contamination, and often close tolerances. Electropolishing provides all of those conditions and more in a matter of seconds for many metal parts. It is a process that has been used for more than a hundred years. It is widely known and the science is widely discussed, but its ability to run job shop lots and high-precision high-volume parts in the same equipment makes it a bit unique.
