In sheet metal customization, the selection of surface treatment processes must consider not only performance requirements but also cost.
The spraying process has relatively low cost. It is suitable for mass-produced ordinary sheet metal parts that require high surface decoration.
The electroplating process has moderate cost. It provides excellent corrosion resistance and decorative performance, making it suitable for precision products or those requiring high surface hardness.
The passivation process also has low cost. It is mainly used for corrosion protection of stainless steel sheet metal parts, with simple operation and environmental friendliness.
In actual selection, a comprehensive judgment should be made based on the product’s application scenario, material, and budget:
- For ordinary carbon steel sheet metal parts where cost-effectiveness and decoration are prioritized, spraying is a suitable choice.
- For precision stainless steel parts that need enhanced corrosion resistance, passivation is recommended.
- For high-end products requiring both decoration and corrosion resistance, electroplating is an appropriate option.
Our company will recommend cost-effective surface treatment solutions based on customer needs and budgets, ensuring product quality while controlling costs.
