Surface finish, also known as surface texture or surface topography, is the nature of a surface as defined by the three characteristics of lay, surface roughness, and waviness. Wytech employs a variety of manufacturing techniques to assure the surface requirements of the product ordered meet customer specifications.
Electropolishing is an electrochemical process that Wytech employs to remove material from a metallic workpiece. It is a highly effective method to polish, deburr, and radius complex medical device components.
Passivation is a chemical treatment applied to the material surface that removes contaminants and assists in the formation of a chromium-oxide passive film that protects the surface from corrosion. Moreover, passivation supports the transfer of fluid and/or medication.
Wytech provides vibratory tumbling for our customers with end radius requirements.
