24 things that impacts the quality of anodizing

- Anodizing is an electrochemical process, where
the metal surface is coated with the oxide of the
metal. in the process of anodizing the metal is
dipped in a tank filled with electrolyte solution
and electric current is passed through the
solution. The metal in the tank act as anode. A
cathode is placed in the solution. - The electric current causes the metal to form
oxide on the surface. Aluminium is the majorly
used metal for anodizing, there are other metals
too that can be anodized like magnesium,
titanium, zinc etc - While anodizing there are some factors that must
be taken care of, which are as follows
4 Source
materialThis is the most impacting factor on
anodizing. Different aluminium alloy have
different compounds and all compounds works
differently in anodizing. Some compounds work
exceptionally well and some too bad. It all
depends on the material to be anodized.
Similarly, anodizing differs with different
metal. The best metal for anodizing is aluminium.
There are several other metal that can be
anodized is magnesium, titanium, zinc, etc.
5- Surface preparation
- Surface preparation is very important, before
putting the metal in the electrolyte solution.
The surface of the metal must be clean and clear.
Several times there are packing stuffs, tape,
paints etc. are stuck on the surface of the
metal, those thing should be cleared before
bathing them with electrolyte solution.
6 Chemistry
controlAnodizing is a complex chemical process,
having better knowledge of the reaction and
taking all the required measures is compulsory
for desired finishing. There are numerous steps
in the process like, cleaning, pre-treatment
(etch), anodizing, shading (with the exception of
clear), sealing, and obviously there are various
rinses in the middle of each of these steps
7- The controls that must be kept up in each of the
means are PH, concentration, temperature, and
also time. Chemical suppliers do prescribe a
scope of parameters for every substance except it
is critical for each anodizer to do their own
particular research and testing to locate an
ideal range. This should be possible with the
help of chemical management software and
additionally counseling with the chemical
provider provider.
8- Anodizing tank
control - In the anodizing tanks there are two main things
that carry out anodizing. they are, electrolytic
solution and electric current. Controlling the
tank means, controlling these two things. - There is different electrolytic solution for
different metal and similarly, different voltage
of current for different metal. Before handling
out anodization expert level knowledge is
important.
9- Anodizing the best doe in Indaco metal Coats.
Indaco coats provides best solution in aluminium
and titanium anodizing electropolishing and
surface finishing. It is based in Belgaum,
Karnataka and is one of the leading anodising in
India
