Explore cost-effective aluminum anodizing and metal prototyping services.
When developing metal prototypes or finished products, two critical services often come into play: metal prototyping services and aluminum anodizing services. Understanding the aluminum anodizing service cost and how these processes work together can help you make informed decisions for your manufacturing projects.

Aluminum Anodizing Services
We offer Type II and Type III anodizing, which are ideal finishes for aluminum parts. Anodizing not only strengthens aluminum parts but also offers a variety of color options to suit different needs. Please note that all types of anodizing increase lead time and per-part cost.

Our Anodizing Process
Anodizing is an electrolytic process designed to protect aluminum parts from wear and corrosion while improving their appearance. Here are the basic steps for anodizing a part:
Attach the part to the anode
Immerse the part in an acidic electrolyte solution
Apply the cathode to the metal electrode in the solution
Positive ions react with negative oxygen ions, making the surface porous
Grow a layer of aluminum oxide on the part
Add a corrosion inhibitor or colored dye for cosmetic purposes
Seal the nanopores
