We grind both small parts and large components—up to 13 meters in length and 800 mm in diameter, depending on the method.
To ensure the best possible results in hard chrome plating, precise surface preparation is required. At Lomma Hårdkrom we offer professional grinding of components - a crucial part of achieving the right surface finish, dimensional accuracy and adhesion for subsequent chrome plating.
Grinding is a critical step in the pretreatment of metal components prior to hard chrome plating. By carefully removing irregularities, old coatings, or surface damage, we prepare the material for optimal adhesion of the new chrome layer.
The grinding also ensures that the correct dimensions are achieved according to tolerance requirements, which is particularly important in precision components.
Do you have newly manufactured components that need durable surfaces? We help you from start to finished product. We have extensive experience of delivering hard chrome plating to customers in:
Good to know about hard chrome plating
We offer several types of grinding, adapted to the shape, size and function of the component.
Used to grind cylindrical surfaces with high precision. Ideal for shafts, rollers and similar parts where accurate roundness is essential.
Grinding without center tension, making it ideal for mass production of smaller, round parts with uniform diameter.
We perform belt grinding of larger cylindrical components, such as piston rods and round bars. The method is used to provide a smooth and fine surface before chrome plating.
The final step to achieve a mirror-like surface with extremely low friction. This is often used in combination with chrome plating to achieve the best possible wear resistance and aesthetics.
Grinding is not an isolated service - it's an integral part of our total hard chrome plating, repair and finishing solution. By letting us handle both grinding and chrome plating, you get a smoother process, shorter lead times and a more reliable result.
