What Is Mass Finishing, and How Does It Benefit OEMs?

No matter what method is used, the key aspects of mass finishing are simple: specialized equipment and media are used to finish large batches of parts at once to produce consistent uniform results. 

Finishing parts individually leads to inconsistent results and bottlenecks in manufacturing — not to mention the high costs. Mass finishing solves these problems, allowing multiple components to be simultaneously finished to the same standard and streamlining the production process. From deburring, smoothing, polishing, cleaning and more, mass finishing gives OEMs an easy way to get their parts ready for further processing. Put simply, mass finishing provides: 

• Speed and Efficiency — finish hundreds or thousands of parts at once
• Consistent Quality — every part receives identical surface treatment
• Cost Savings — lower labor and cycle times reduce cost per part
• Scalability — capable of finishing both small prototype batches and high-volume production

With purpose-built systems and a commitment to quality, Eaglemaster is dedicated to delivering reliable surface finishing at scale.

Eaglemaster’s Industry-Specific OEM Metal Finishing Capabilities in MN

Every industry is unique, making it crucial to partner with a finishing service provider that understands the specific quality, precision and cosmetic requirements for your parts. We have experience working with many OEMs across various industries that rely on mass finishing services and our team is continuously refining our finishing processes, media and methods to meet the needs of our customers and the various requirements of their industries.

Automotive and Transportation

Finishing is important for all kinds of parts in the automotive industry. Some, like brackets, gears and transmission housings need to meet tight tolerance standards and be capable of resisting wear and tear.

Other components, especially those that will be visible, also need to have a consistent look and feel. To meet these needs, mass finishing solutions like deburring, blast batching and radiusing are used to deliver burr-free, smooth parts that are ready for coatings or paint. With high-volume batch blasting and vibratory finishing systems, Eaglemaster is capable of supporting JIT production for OEMs that meet the highest quality, appearance and performance standards.

Aerospace and Defense

There is no room for error for aerospace or defense companies, which is why OEMs in these industries turn to Eaglemaster. We finish a wide range of parts, like turbine blades, landing gear or fasteners, that need to have precise tolerances and completely defect-free surfaces for future plating or coating.

Using mass finishing techniques like vibratory deburring and polishing allows our team to produce uniform finishes for complex geometries at scale to help create a more efficient manufacturing process. We draw on many years of experience to maintain complete consistency for each batch of parts while still meeting highly specific tolerance and performance requirements.

Medical Devices and Equipment

Surgical instruments and implants need to be hygienic, smooth and visually flawless, which is why many medical device and equipment OEMs work with Eaglemaster.

Our various finishing services produce components with defect-free surfaces without affecting tight tolerance requirements. For example, using vibratory deburring and surface blending, we can create smooth finishes on small, intricate parts. We can also produce mirror-like or satin surfaces in order to meet the cosmetic standards of the medical field.

Industrial Equipment and Tooling

Industrial OEMs that produce large forged, machined and stamped parts that need substantial burr removal to prep the surface for later coatings and appearance improvements. In order to do this effectively, we use high-energy deburring and bulk blasting to quickly remove scale and heavy burrs to create clean, uniform surfaces for a professional appearance. And while these larger or heavier parts might otherwise hold up processing for other surface finishers, Eaglemaster has the capability to finish them at a high volume to the required standard, helping cut down lead times and streamlining production.

Consumer & Sporting Goods

For the best quality and highest performing products, proper finishing is crucial. For visible products like hardware, sporting components and housings, metal components need to look perfect and feel smooth. To accomplish this, Eaglemaster uses a combination of finishing techniques to remove rough edges, welds and tool marks. The result is a uniform satin or matte finish that helps elevate the aesthetics and quality of consumer and sporting goods.

To keep the process as efficient and cost-effective as possible, we can provide these services at scale while maintaining the cosmetic-level finishing that your parts require.
