|
|
Anodizing (Type II/III) Creates a hard, corrosion-resistant oxide layer on aluminum. Type III (hard coat) offers exceptional durability. Available in various colors for branding. Common Use: Machine housings, handles, trim pieces. |
Electroless Nickel Plating Provides a uniform, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant metallic coating. Excellent for complex geometries and offers good lubricity. Common Use: Brew group components, valves, wear surfaces. |
Polishing / Mirror Finish Produces a smooth, reflective surface that reduces adhesion of coffee oils and residues, making cleaning easier and enhancing aesthetic appeal. Common Use: Portafilters, steam wands, exposed brass or stainless components. |
|
|
|
|
Powder Coating A durable, thick polymer coating applied electrostatically. Superior to paint for impact and corrosion resistance. Wide range of colors and textures. Common Use: External frames, bases, structural components. |
Bead Blasting Creates a uniform, non-directional matte or satin finish. Excellent for hiding tool marks, providing a consistent substrate for coating, and a clean, modern look. Common Use: Aluminum or stainless housings, internal brackets. |
Brushed Finish A directional satin texture created by abrasive brushing. Elegant appearance that effectively conceals fingerprints and fine scratches from daily use. Common Use: Control panels, side panels, accent strips. |
