Machined & Powder Coated Parts

When your product has been extruded our extensive on-site manufacturing division has the capability to turn your raw aluminium extrusion into a machined and finished component. We can provide precision cutting, milling, multi-axis CNC machining of high tolerance aluminium components (complete with CAD CAM software), drilling, tapping, punching, turning, wire erosion, forming, and de-burring. We can take your finished component and fabricate and assemble with other parts, before packing and labelling to your requirements, ready for you to use or send straight to your customer. As well as machining components produced on site, Capalex Manufacturing can also offer a sub-contract service, if you have aluminium or steel from another source that requires machining. As well as machining, Capalex also offers a professional painting service.Powder coating is a very durable method of providing a decorative finish to metals and a range of other materials.Our powder coating facility offers finishing in a variety of colours with RAL, BS or colour matched powders. We are able to powder coat both aluminium and steel sections of lengths up to 6 metres, and smaller machined or formed components.There are also different varieties of finishes to choose from.As with our machining facilities, we are also able to offer a sub-contracting service for any steel or aluminium you require powder coated. Please contact us for further information regarding our sub-contracting services.The main finish reflects the gloss level of the final product, usually being Gloss, Satin or Matt. There is also the choice between Flat finish and Metallic.When choosing metallic powders Capalex always use the more expensive bonded powders as this gives a more uniform spread of metallic particles on the end product. If your product requires a metallic finish always ask if the powder is bonded or not.Also there are more uncommon finishes like Hammerite, Textured etc.
