Nitronic Aerospace Fitting – Polish

A precision aerospace manufacturer in the Los Angeles, CA region needed to improve the surface finish of a critical Nitronic fitting without removing excessive material. The goal was to achieve a smoother, more consistent surface condition through an automated finishing process while maintaining part geometry and tight dimensional requirements.

Bel Air evaluated electropolishing as a method for improving the surface finish of CNC-machined Nitronic aerospace fittings. The application required polishing a critical surface while minimizing material removal and maintaining part geometry.

The customer needed a smoother, more consistent finish, but excessive material removal was not acceptable. Electropolishing provided a controlled finishing process that improved surface quality without affecting critical dimensions or features.

The final process produced a smoother, brighter, and more uniform surface finish while maintaining the required geometry of the part. The result was a repeatable finishing solution for aerospace components with demanding surface finish requirements.
