Why does finish matter?
It’s not just a matter of aesthetics.
In the metalworking industry, the finish of a part is a fundamental aspect that directly impacts the functionality, performance, and durability of the component.



A good surface finish helps:
🔹 Reduce wear: A smoother surface minimizes friction and residue buildup, increasing the life of the part.
🔹 Improve fit: In precision machining, tight tolerances require perfectly machined surfaces to ensure proper assembly between components.
🔹 Prevent defects and breakages: Microcracks and residual stresses can arise from a poor finish, compromising mechanical integrity.
🔹 Optimize operating behavior: In industries like hosiery, the finish also affects parameters such as the ability to slide the pantyhose without damaging it by pulling on the threads.
In the workshop, every detail counts. And the finish isn’t the last thing: it’s often the decisive one.
