Challenges

What Medical Device Manufacturing Demands

Sterilization is relentless

Abrasion and Wear Protection

Wear Protection That Keeps Equipment in Service

Surface wear shortens component life and drives unplanned maintenance. Ceramic coating delivers 9H hardness with 160/160 in-lbs impact strength (ASTM verified).

Corrosion Protection

Corrosion-Resistant Cerakote Coating

4,000+ hours of ASTM B117 salt spray resistance. Molecular-level protection for aerospace, defense, and industrial components.

Aesthetic Finishing

Cerakote Color Consistency & Aesthetic Finishing

Delta E ≤1 color precision across production runs. 200+ standard colors. Spectrophotometer-verified on every batch.

Weight Reduction

Weight Reduction Without Sacrificing Protection

Thick coatings add weight that undermines lightweighting efforts. Ceramic coating at 0.5-2 mils delivers full protection with 200-400g savings per part versus powder coating.
