Peentex Surface Texturing & Architectural Finishes
Peentex is a decorative textured finish applied by controlled shot peening which can be used on metal, glass, wood and acrylic.
Controlled shot peening has long been associated with engineered surface finishing of metals including steels, stainless steels, aluminium, titanium and copper alloys. It forms an essential part of the manufacturing process used within the engineering industry to improve wear and corrosion resistance and prevent premature fatigue failures.

Engineered Coating Services
Curtiss-Wright Surface Technologies has experience in all key industries such as aerospace, automotive, oil and gas and medical with facilities offering specialist coating services for components of all sizes and complexity, including repair and overhaul services for gas and steam turbine components.
Laser Shock Peening
Laser peening can surgically place exceptionally deep residual compressive stress into key areas of a component to retard crack initiation and growth enabling increased fatigue strength ratings.
Laser peening is not a replacement for controlled shot peening, but has additional advantages that can influence which method to use.

Shot Peen Forming
Shot Peen Forming uses the compressive stresses induced by controlled shot peening to alter the stress pattern, magnitude and depth to deliberately create a change in the component shape. Gentle curves within the elastic range of the material are regularly formed to consistent tolerances.
Varying curvature requirements, material thickness, cut outs, reinforcements and pre-existing distortion can all be processed.
