Mechanical Leveling Introduction
1. What’s Mechanical Leveling(ML) ?
The operation of ML is firstly wax-filling the mechanized
cotton-wheel and then rubbing the metal parts with specified RPM. High temperature(by rubbing) in combination with wax-lubricating enables the parts to be leveled by eliminating defects like indent, contour-burring and streak from nail scratch and stamping.
2. Which materials are applicable for ML ?
ML can work on stainless steel(SUS), copper(Cu),
Aluminium(Al), zinc(Zn) and titanium(Ti).
3. What cosmetic effects does Mechanical Leveling make ?
Smooth, neat and mirror-like surface can be realized.
4. Real Performance
Since 2001, more than 100 million parts have been produced which comprises over thirty hand-held devices.
5. Conclusion
Mechanical Leveling can eliminate surface flaws and serves as
precursor for anodizing, chemical-etching, electroplating and vacuum
coating. So far, it has been widely employed in the surface smothering of metallic enclosures for cellular phones, PDAs and computer(both desktop ＆ laptop).
