Metal Stamping Services
As UK leaders in the metal manufacturing industry, Qualitetch also offers a metal stamping service, dedicated to producing bespoke metal components. These metal stamping services are often more suited to volume work for parts once they are finalised for production, after the initial prototyping and low batch quantity stage.

Aluminium Photo Etching
Here at Qualitetch we offer a quality service for etching Aluminium. The process of chemical etching with Aluminium is a specialist process and we have many years of experience etching this metal.
This is due to the fact that aluminium can be difficult to etch correctly if you do not have the correct process controls in place, which can lead to poor edges and a rough finished profile. Qualitetch have developed a process with our chemistry engineers to ensure that only the best quality etchant is used in our process to give the best possible results to your metal components.
The reason this metal can be difficult to etch is that aluminium is exothermic, meaning that it creates heat and gases on the surface of the metal as it is being chemically etched, which causes the aluminium to blow outwards and smut with carbon; roughening the surface.

EDM Wire Erosion
To compliment our manufacturing services for thin gauge components, we have also introduced an EDM wire erosion facility within our business to further add to our processing capabilities for our customers.
Benefits of Wire Erosion
Whilst chemical etching is an accurate method of manufacture, occasionally specified tolerances are smaller than the process capabilities and we may need to look at alternative processes such as wire erosion. Extensive research and development has allowed us to develop a cost effective method of manufacturing thin gauge metal components using EDM wire erosion, giving the benefit of a square edge and improved dimensional accuracy. It also allows the processing of the few metals whose chemical composition makes them unsuitable for photo etching.
The capabilities of our wire erosion machines are not limited to the manufacture of thin gauge metal components, as metal up to 150mm thick can be processed, with no additional programming charge.
