Follow-on processes
PERFECTLY FORMED, DOWN TO THE FINISHING TOUCH
VS offers a one-stop solution, from development to delivery of the ready-to-fit part. Whether you are looking for a particular surface finish, mechanical processing or final assembly of the components – we put the finishing touches to your order!
TUMBLING
To ensure that even the smallest ridges and edges are eliminated, small parts can be smoothed in our carousel machine on request. This tumbling process is used in particular for cast parts with high optical requirements.
CALIBRATION
Calibration, cutting and alignment on various presses serve to further improve the manufacturing tolerance of the cast parts. In many cases this enables an economical alternative to cutting.
SURFACE FINISHING
Additional surface finishing enables the cast parts to be used in the most varied of applications:
Zinc coating, applied galvanically or using a hot-dip method, increases the corrosion resistance of the material.
Chromate coating enhances corrosion resistance further and enables the product to be coloured, for example yellow, blue, olive or black.
Other galvanic procedures also enable coating with copper, nickel or chrome.
In addition, we also offer finishing with painting, nitriding, carbonitriding or inductive hardening.
MECHANICAL PROCESSING
The even mechanical properties of temper and grey-cast methods mean that they are ideally suited for machining processes such as turning, drilling and milling. VS has the know-how and equipment to process large series to the state of the art in CNC technology.
ASSEMBLY
We support your product from development to assembly. Naturally, the assembly of the various components to form one unit forms part of our offer.
