Why Computer Chassis Anodizing Advantageous?

By Roy van Rivero


Considered to be one of the most important processes in the metal finishing industry is a process called anodizing. It is an electrolytic passivation process that is employed to increase the thickness of the natural oxide layer of the surface of the metal parts (e.g. metal sheet). This process is also popular in the production of computer chassis (i.e. computer casing) as a lot of manufacturers find it a practical way to protect a system unit most especially the component inside it, resulting to a better quality product.

Some practical benefits of computer chassis anodizing:

Makes the computer casing sturdy and therefore can not be easily deformed when an outside force is exerted on it; it provides more strength to the casing and therefore can hold the components in their places.

It helps the metal sheet become more corrosion-resistant, stretching the lifespan of the system unit as a whole. The anodizing process can protect the metal sheet from air moisture and other external elements that usually contribute to the immediate degradation of the untreated computer casing.

It makes the metal sheet with less scars and become more resistant to wearing; scars and wear are common during fabrication and surface dirt cleaning.

Anodizing process - some advantages over other metal sheet processes:

In general, the process is considered less expensive

Contrary to other processes, anodizing computer chassis provides a a metal surface that does not peel-off because the coating itself is part of the metal sheet.

Anodizing's translucent property gives a metal sheet a deeper, richer metallic appearance, which is not only aesthetically advantageous but opens the possibility of computerized color matching with quantitative, objective color data.

Anodizing is environment friendly; anodizing service providers, therefore, are indeed taking a bold step for environmental rehabilitation/protection campaign leading to a sustainable development.

Above are just few of the benefits and advantages that computer chassis anodizing has to offer. But there's more. This is why more and more companies choose this particular industry process - not just for computer casing but other metal materials as well used in the manufacturing industry.
