Electropolishing
is a method of polishing various metals such as stainless steel, aluminum,
and steel
by an
electrochemical process that selectively removes high points
on the metal surface to give it smoothness and luster.
We have kits that can be used to
polish stainless steel and aluminum. Our electropolishing systems
smoothens, polishes, deburrs, and cleans stainless and/or aluminum. You simply submerse a clean part into one of our
electropolishing chemicals, turn on the current via a power
 supply,
and a few minutes, you'll will have a nicely polished part. The electropolishing tank is set
up the same way as a plating tank. You'll need a tank, electropolishing
solution, lead-tin-antimony anodes,
a high power rectifier, a tank heater, and
a couple of rinse tanks.
Electropolishing does have its limitation. You cannot put a part in the solution that is
rusty and pitted then expect it to come out mirror-like. The part has to be in
reasonably good shape or has to be sanded smooth. The parts have to be rust-free and
dirt-free. Purer grades of stainless steel
(like 316L) will polish out to a mirror-like finish while other grades will still get good results. Aluminum shows good results but
1000 and 6000 series aluminum alloys seem
to come out the best. Below are 24 of about
1000 identical aluminum parts (6061) that were electropolished with our
solution.
Electropolishing as a business
opportunity is very good, in this writer's opinion. It is easy to learn.
The learning curve is only about one to two weeks. The market for it is very
good, especially for stainless steel. There is a whole lot of work to be procured in
the medical as well as the food industry. Medical equipment are made of mostly
stainless steel and are very expensive. To save money, clinics and hospitals would
rather refurbish their stainless steel equipment rather than buy new ones. The
electrical polishing procedure will actually sharpen surgical tools as it polishes
it.....neat, huh? As for the food industry, the FDA requires that ALL metallic
equipment that
 comes
into contact with food be stainless steel. And by law, these items has to
be replaced or electrically polished periodically. Pick up your local phone book and
you'll only find little if any companies that do electrical polishing locally.
So chances are, these local medical clinics and restaurants are sending their
stuff out of town or even out of state. So being the local guy that offers
this same service, chances are you'll get their business. The process is
quick so you can get quite a few loads processed in
an hour.
For example, a twenty five gallon line
will make easily make $200 an hour with
just one operator. With electropolishing professionally, you will need very little equipment
compared to other plating process and EPA regulations are very light on this process. We
offer three different electropolish solutions for various applications. We
can also do custom solutions to process copper, brass, or bronze but there is a
21 gallon minimum for the special blend solution.

E-POLISH
SS - used for electropolishing any 300 series stainless steel such as 303, 304,
316 etc. Yields fair results on 17, 18 , and 400 series stainless but
these alloys are best suited to be used with SSA.
E-POLISH SSA - can be used to
electropolish any 300, 400, 17-7, 18-8 series stainless steel as
well as nickel alloys, cobalt alloys, and incoloy. It will also electropolish
4130, 4140, 1040, 1050, and similar steels
E-POLISH AA - primarily used for
someone who only wants to electropolish various aluminum alloys. This
solution produces the very good finish on various purer grades aluminum and it
is also effective on less pure grades of
aluminum alloys. This
solution will not work on aluminum casting with less than 92% purity. Requires
severe duty Schedule 80 PVC tank
E-POLISH CBB - For electropolishing various
copper alloys such as brass, bronze, and copper. This
solution produces the very good finish on most copper, brass, and bronze
alloys.
All solutions above comes in
commercial grade and hobby grade. Both will achieve the same results but
hobby grade chemicals take longer to do so but is much less acidic.
Hobby
Kits do not include electropolish rectifier.
"C" systems and semi commercial systems come with a used rectifier which can be
upgraded to new.
"C"
system and semi commercial systems are for commercial
use only and come with commercial grade chemicals, commercial bussing &
cathodes, and commercial equipment for critical stations. They are not
sold to home users.
