Innovative Finishing/Plating Machine

With the introduction of the Kuhlmeyer Dual-Belt Grinding Machine TBS stroke sander to our shop, we have increased our capabilities to include cosmetic straight line finishing of stainless steel and steel parts. Our projects range in a variety of industries including medical, industrial, commercial, and communications.

This machine, commonly used in high-end manufacturing for finishing stainless steel boxes, cases, panels, and enclosures allows us to create better-finished products. By strategically utilizing finishing belts with a variety of grits, we are able to offer our clients a brushed cosmetic finish for all of their precision metal fabrication. Our machine’s capabilities allow us to accommodate larger parts (parts as large as 36” wide x 114” long).
