Common processing methods for stainless steel plate surface
Drawing can be said to be the process with the largest processing volume, because it is simple and fast, and can process up to 10,000 pieces in a single day. Brushing is also called frosted in the industry. Its surface has various states. For example, the thickest and longest sand texture is called straight wire, and the sand texture is very fine and snowflake-like, called snowflake sand, etc. The stainless steel plate has a perfect decorative effect after being brushed and is widely used in decorative panels such as elevators and home appliances.
The colored stainless steel plates we call are actually processed by vacuum titanium plating (PVD). A processing method in which titanium metal is heated to melt and evaporate under high vacuum conditions, and the heated metal is cooled on the surface of the stainless steel plate to form a surface film. Titanium metal reacts with various gases in vacuum ion plating equipment to form plasma. After acceleration, the plasma rushes to the surface of the plate to be plated, forming a strong film layer. This film layer is fine and uniform, has strong bonding force, high hardness, anti-corrosion and wear resistance, and has rich and diverse colors. The colors can be customized according to customer requirements, such as black titanium, titanium gold, sapphire blue, coffee, brown, emerald green, green, purple, Bronze, bronze bronze, champagne gold, rose gold, etc.
Mirror surface (also called 8K) is to polish the stainless steel plate with abrasive liquid through grinding equipment to make the surface of the stainless steel plate smoother and the brightness can be as clear as a mirror. Generally speaking, when stainless steel plates are processed with grinding equipment, the slower they travel, the more grinding groups are required, and the better the effect of the processed stainless steel plates. Mirror surfaces are also divided into ordinary mirror surfaces and precision-ground mirror surfaces. A good precision-ground mirror stainless steel plate can achieve a 12k effect.
Fingerprint-free: A layer of oil is attached to the surface of the stainless steel plate and dried to achieve anti-fingerprint and anti-oxidation effects. Generally, those that have been mirrored will not be fingerprint-free, because it will affect the effect of the mirror. It is best not to use fingerprint-free stainless steel plates in places with high temperatures, otherwise they will turn black.
