Alloy is requesting that Bel Air help explore the use of centrifugal disc finishing for an aluminum bracket.  The goal is to remove the “stair stepping finish” resulting from the printing process to make the part more acceptable in the market

If you are unsure what equipment and media you require to achieve your desired surface finish, then send us your part, and we will evaluate it and provide you with a metrology report.
