Additive manufacturing enables remarkable design freedom - but achieving strong coating adhesion still depends on precise surface preparation. That’s where wet blasting has become the process of choice.

Wet blasting delivers a controlled, consistent finish that’s ideal for 3D printed components.

Here’s why it stands out:

• Uniform surface activation: Evenly textures complex geometries for consistent coating adhesion.

• Reduced contamination: The water medium suppresses dust and prevents abrasive embedment.

• Precise control: Operators can adjust media, pressure and flow for the required surface roughness.

• Geometry-safe: The gentle process preserves dimensional accuracy and original tolerances.

• Reaches internal channels: The fluid action can treat intricate internal passages often missed by dry methods.

In short, wet blasting prepares additive manufactured parts for coating without compromising form or function - ensuring lasting coating adhesion from the inside out.
