Finishing Options for Moulded and Cast Parts

SPI

SPI finishes are a set of standard mould finishes with different polished textures for enhanced properties.

Notes:

We recommend providing a CMF (Colour/Material/Finishing) that defines the visual and tactile characteristics of a product, ensuring design consistency and manufacturing accuracy.
Final result:
- Heavily polished, to semi-gloss to fine and coarse matte depending on the selection
- A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3, C1, C2, C3, D1, D2, D3
VDI

VDI is an international standard for mould texturing of matte surfaces. It is mainly processed by Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) when mould machining.

Notes:

We recommend providing a CMF (Colour/Material/Finishing) that defines the visual and tactile characteristics of a product, ensuring design consistency and manufacturing accuracy.
Final result:
- Fine-to-coarse grain depending on the selection
- VDI12, VDI15, VDI18,VDI21, VDI 24, VDI27, VDI30, VDI33, VDI36, VDI39, VDI42, VDI45
Black anodising type II (3D render, aluminium shown)

Blue anodising type II (3D render, aluminium shown)

Gold anodising type II (3D render, aluminium shown)

Green anodising type II (3D render, aluminium shown)

Orange anodising type II (3D render, aluminium shown)

Red anodising type II (3D render, aluminium shown)

Yellow anodising type II (3D render, aluminium shown)

Anodising, purple

Clear anodising type II (3D render, aluminium shown)
Anodising (Type II)

Type II anodise provides increased corrosion resistance and can be used as a base for paint and other finishes.
Notes:
Aluminium is typically anodised

Anodised coatings are not electrically conductive

Possibility of requesting custom colours (RAL)
Available colors:
- Black
- Blue
- Gold
- Green
- Grey
- Orange
- Purple
- Yellow
- Custom colour (RAL)
Spray painting

Provides a continuous, protective color finish which is applied by spraying.
Notes:
Paint coating is just on the surface level, if it is scratched or subjected to wear and tear, the internal natural colour is visible

Possibility of requesting custom colours (RAL)
Available colors:
- Black
- Custom colour (RAL)
Powder coating

Provides a continuous, protective colour finish on parts using evenly applied, heat-cured paint. The finish is usually tougher and even compared to conventional painting.

Notes:

Metals like aluminium and steel can be efficiently coated with polymer powders
Available colors:
- Black
Custom

If you select a custom finish in the Instant Quoting Engine it will require manual review. Manual quoting usually 1-2 business days.

Notes:

Submitting for manual review with a custom request does not guarantee a quote.
