Metal surface finishing: Effective processes for optimum protection
Whether in medical technology, electronics, the food industry or outdoor applications – the requirements for metal surfaces today are as diverse as they are demanding. At BVS Blechtechnik, you will find tailor-made solutions for every application: with state-of-the-art in-house surface treatment, precise pre-treatment and complementary processes carried out by long-standing partners, we offer you metal surface finishing of the highest standard – functional, durable and aesthetically appealing. In this way, we combine quality, design and protection to achieve a result that is precisely tailored to your requirements.
High-quality surface finishing for metal: powder coating as a key technology
When it comes to finishing metal surfaces, BVS Blechtechnik offers a wide range of services – with a clear focus on quality, versatility and modern technology. The focus is on powder coating, which is carried out in-house and offers customers not only an enormous selection of colours, but also exceptional technical properties.
BVS Blechtechnik has been operating its own powder coating plant for around 24 years, giving it a truly unique selling point: it can also process polyolefins. This special coating is resistant to acids and alkalis, making it particularly suitable for demanding applications such as medical and laboratory technology, where aggressive media are involved and absolute reliability is required.
In addition, powder coating offers great design flexibility: whether smooth, fine-textured or coarse-textured, matt or glossy – customers can choose from a wide range of colours and surface effects, combining technical requirements with individual design preferences.
Complementary procedures – everything from a single source
In addition to in-house powder coating, BVS Blechtechnik also offers complementary processes through a proven network of external partners. Particularly in demand are:
- Wet coatings, e.g. for heat-sensitive materials or special gloss levels
- Electroplated coatings for corrosion protection
- Anodising process for aluminium parts – ideal for aluminium surface finishing
- Chrome plating for particularly elegant surfaces
- Electropolishing for mirror-smooth, hygienic results
This enables BVS to provide the right surface finish for almost any application – functional, visually appealing and precisely tailored to the intended use.
The right surface for every industry: highest quality, even under extreme conditions
The requirements for metallic surfaces vary depending on the industry – and BVS Blechtechnik knows exactly what is important in sensitive areas of application. Whether chemicals, extreme weather conditions or strict hygiene requirements: with sophisticated finishing processes, BVS delivers reliable solutions for demanding industries.
Medical and laboratory technology is a particularly sensitive area. Aggressive cleaning agents or acids and alkalis are often used here – placing enormous strain on every surface. Thanks to a special powder coating with polyolefins, BVS offers an acid- and alkali-resistant finish that can withstand even intensive cleaning. In critical applications, a double coating is even applied – including quality certification for customers on request.
Equally important: hygiene and scratch resistance. No dirt should be able to accumulate on medical devices; the surface must be completely smooth and abrasion-resistant. Here too, BVS impresses with its experience and appropriate technical implementation.
Corrosion protection, weather resistance, anti-graffiti – everything is possible
The versatility of surface finishing is also evident in outdoor applications: for digital signage devices used near the coast or in public spaces, for example, BVS offers weather-resistant coatings with high saltwater resistance. In addition, anti-graffiti powders can be applied, which make it much easier to remove graffiti.
Strict regulations also apply in the food industry – especially when metal parts come into direct contact with food. Here, BVS offers food-safe, easy-to-clean surfaces that guarantee maximum cleanliness and durability.
Surface quality is also crucial in the electronics industry – for example, when devices used indoors or outdoors need to be protected and at the same time aesthetically appealing. Thanks to the precise coordination of materials, finishing and design, BVS meets even the highest customer demands in this area.
Careful preparation for perfect results
For a flawless finish and reliable function, everything at BVS begins with a clear quality principle: careful preparation. Even the smallest details determine how well your surface is ultimately protected and how it looks. Even during laser cutting, the oxide-free cut with nitrogen ensures clean edges and the best conditions for the subsequent coating. Next: edge breaking, degreasing, phosphating – for optimum adhesion and long service life of the powder or paint. Depending on the product requirements, powder coating is carried out manually or with high precision by a robot – for consistently high quality in every series.
Quality that can be measured – even in series production
One thing is crucial, especially in series production: absolute repeat accuracy. To ensure consistently high surface quality even with large quantities, BVS relies on documented processes, structured visual inspections – and state-of-the-art technology.
A key element is the Coatmaster Flex: this non-contact measuring system enables the coating thickness of the powder coating to be precisely measured before baking. This means that even before curing in the oven, it is possible to determine whether the applied coating meets the requirements – without any reworking or waste. The measurement is carried out over a large area, digitally and is directly linked to the order number. All values can be precisely assigned and retrieved – a real advantage for traceability, quality assurance and customer transparency.
This reliable quality control not only saves our customers time and money, but also increases reliability – from individual parts to large series.
Design freedom included: colours, prints and special solutions
In addition to function and quality, design is playing an increasingly important role – especially in visible areas or for industry-specific applications. That is why BVS offers you a wide range of customisation options: from a broad colour palette with special colours to multi-colour screen printing for logos, markings or decorative elements.
We also develop tailor-made finishing concepts for demanding industry solutions – such as in the medical sector, food technology or outdoor products – that are precisely tailored to your requirements. Thanks to modern powder coating with polyolefin, anti-graffiti powders or special paint structures, we create surfaces that not only look beautiful, but also withstand the highest chemical, mechanical and climatic stresses.
This is how we combine aesthetics and function to create a solution that visibly enhances your products – exactly as you envision it.
