The client specializes in machining chemical nickel and anodizing mechanical parts and it is
a
technologically advanced player on the field. The range of treatments and the ability to
achieve
results in short timescales are two of its greatest strengths.
In-house sandblasting departments and
curing ovens complete the surface treatment department. Increasing demand for anodization of
additive manufactured parts, specifically in titanium, can be a valuable market for the
client.
The objective of the TiColor project was to test electrochemical coloring of titanium on
parts
produced by additive manufacturing. Surface and aesthetic appearance properties of the
applied
surface treatment were evaluated in comparison to the standard ones.
