Shinchuoukougyou Co., Ltd.

We can also support aircraft parts with our versatile metal working and surface treatment technology.

Our company’s core technologies are spring processing, precision machining, grinding, fine deburring (SEP processing), HVOF thermal spraying, and alumite processing. We have accumulated know-how in our fine deburring (SEP: Super Etching Polish) processing regarding temperatures and times for micron-order processing for various metals. In our HVOF thermal spraying we can offer support with our integrated in-house system covering from thermal spraying to grinding and super finishing (Super Finish). We have developed alumite processing technology that enables film formation in a short period of time. This technology has been applied to parts in many fields such as automobiles and consumer electronics appliances.

Burr-melting SEP treatment
About SEP treatment
It is a technology in which the product is immersed in a special liquid to chemically dissolve the metal so that fine deburring, polishing, and cleaning take place at the same time.
Offering solutions for various issues
•Burrs are left unremoved because of human error.
•Trouble from clogging, polishing residues, and leakage from the corner.
•Many workers inspect precision parts and sort out all the items using a magnifying glass.
•Problems with contamination and dust.
•Safety issue from the burrs on the sheared section of the press.
•The shape is either irregular or thin, resulting in warps and deformation.
•Concerns on deburring around the cross holes.
•Difficulty in creating the intended surface roughness on the inner surface of a pipe material or a deep hole.
Machining/polishing/thermal spraying
Machining
We have general-purpose lathes and other facilities for machining, NC compound lathe machining, NC lathe machining, and milling, which allow us to deal with a wide range of products from round to square shapes. Also, there is a mass production line for various needs, and we can handle a wide range of production from prototyping to single-lot production and mass production.
Polishing
We have various types of grinding equipment, such as those for surface polishing, cylindrical polishing, inner diameter polishing, and finish polishing. We also provide grinding and mirror finishing after thermal spraying.
HVOF thermal spraying
HVOF thermal spraying has a high flame speed and particle flight speed, so it has high adhesion (800 kgf/cm2 or more) and low porosity (1-2%) and can form a dense and hard film. Also, since the flame temperature is medium (approx. 2,700°C), you can spray WC or other materials that could not be used before. HVOF thermal spraying has higher hardness and wear-resistance than hard chrome plating, which is why it is used for parts that require wear resistance, such as sliding parts and wear damaged parts. In the aircraft industry, eco-friendly, durable HVOF thermal spraying has gradually replaced conventional hard chrome plating that uses hexavalent chromium. It has three to four times higher durability than hard chrome plating, which allows for cost reduction on maintenance.
Chemical treatment of alumite (anodized aluminum)/magnesium, and anodizing
Alumite (anodized aluminum)
•Colored alumite
Available not only in various colors such as red, blue, and black, but also with different surfaces like frosted, glossy, or satin finish.

•Super lubricated alumite
A useful measure against wear on sliding parts and transport parts. It is suitable for situations where lubricating oil cannot be used, or when lubrication is insufficient.

•Super hard crackless alumite
It forms a harder and less cracked film than hard alumite (Hv 550 or higher).
Characteristics: High hardness, good surface roughness, fewer cracks
Expected effects: Improved sliding and wear-resistance. Reduced damage to the other parts that are slid against. Reduced wear powder (contamination). Improved corrosion resistance.

•Alumite wire
It is an electric wire with an anodized aluminum wire having an electrically insulated surface.
Past production projects: Round (Φ0.5 - Φ3.0) and parallelepiped (3×4) objects, more than 200 meters continuously.
SAC treatment (special antifouling coating)
A unique antifouling film that is hard to get dirty and easy to wash
•Chemical resistance: The film is less susceptible to chemicals.
•Salt resistance: Less vulnerable to seawater.
•Repellency: Repels water and oil and does not easily get dirty. Even if it did, you can clean it by simply rinsing with water.
•Resistance to the heat and cold: It resists temperatures of up to 1000°C (nonflammable) and maintains its functions between -15 to 300°C.
•Releasability: It enhances the products' releasability when used on the mold.
•Weather resistance: Withstands an accelerated weathering test  (15 years, JIS standard equivalent). The film maintains the conditions and appearance of the objects it was applied on.
Magnesium anodic oxidation/chemical conversion treatment
Application examples:
Useful as an undercoating on the chassis of cameras and PCs, or as a final coating on the internal parts of on-vehicle meter cases and grip frames.

Non-chrome conversion treatment:
•Standard film (focused on corrosion-resistance)
It showed only five percent or fewer areas of discoloration/corrosion after a salt spray test lasting 24 hours.

•Low electrical resistance film
Surface electrical resistance was 0.8Ω/cm or less.
There were no discoloration/corrosion areas after a salt spray test lasting 24 hours.

Non-chromium anodizing treatment:
•Highly corrosion-resistant, hard film
The resulting film has higher corrosion resistance than in the case of chemical treatment. 
The film is hard and not easily damaged.
The material's molten metal flow patterns are inconspicuous.

•Insulating film
Only 0.1 percent or less of the total area showed any discoloration/corrosion after a salt spray test lasting 300 hours (JIS RN, 9.0% or more).
