Linishing

As one of the first steps to ensuring a flat surface is achieved on cast products, our deburring and linishing services help products look and function to the best of their ability, or to better prepare products for further finishing operations.

The comprehensive casting service offered by H&J Speake fully manages projects from start to finish, holding our clients’ hands throughout this process for the reliable provision of essential parts and products. This includes advice on the most appropriate finishing and finishing processes for products, including deburring and linishing operations.

With decades of experience behind us, the expert team at H&J Speake can be relied upon for the provision of ongoing critical cast products, as demonstrated by our relationship with established companies across global supply chains.

H&J Speake utilises a vibratory finishing machine for deburring with stones, along with hand linishing on a band, to increase the quality, presentation, and function of a cast surface.

We can do this for both zinc and aluminium cast products, with our team on hand to advise clients on the most appropriate material type and secondary operations to ensure products are best fit for their application. We offer a variety of secondary operations alongside linishing, including polishing and finishing, enabling H&J Speake to cater to all types of project requirements.

From initial design consultations to the final finishing operations, our team offers a supportive and bespoke service, working hand in hand with our clients to deliver products of various weights for high volume projects, guaranteed to be delivered on time. We can do this for all industries.

Linishing has many benefits, including:

• Enhance corrosion resistance and improve strength
• Remove split lines, joints and seams from the surface of a part
• Surface appearance improvement
• Repeatable for large volume production
• On aluminium, linishing produces a distinct, matte finish which can remove the need for further finishing procedures
