Finishing - An Essential Aspect Of A Modern Production Line
Finishing manufacturing encompasses a variety of techniques used to enhance the appearance, durability, or functionality of a product after its initial fabrication.
Electroplating is a popular method that involves using an electric current to coat a conductive surface with a layer of metal, which can add desirable properties or increase thickness. Items such as machinery parts, car parts and building structures are great examples of products that are suitable for electroplating. With exposure to unpredictable weather conditions, such as rain, storms and wind, these items require electroplating to increase their wear and tear.
Electropolishing, on the other hand, uses a chemical process to polish and smooth the surface of a metal part, improving its finish and resistance to corrosion. Common parts and components electropolished include tanks, piping, fittings, rods, discs, large parts & surfaces, and more.
Laser engraving is a non-contact method that allows for precise marking of parts with identifiers such as logos or serial numbers. These processes are crucial in industries where the aesthetic appeal and longevity of products are paramount, and they also serve functional purposes such as improving wear resistance or electrical conductivity.
Each technique has its specific applications and benefits, making the field of finishing manufacturing an essential aspect of modern production lines.

It's obvious they take all factors of a projects and system into consideration during their design phase. I've never heard of a performance issue that hasn't been resolved with customers, suppliers, or PSI being unhappy with resolutions. We have enjoyed being a part of the growth and tenure PSI has had in the finishing industry and look forward to many more years of business together.
Chris Morris2024-01-24Great company to work with, highly recommend Production Systems
Zachary T2024-01-16Began working with Production Systems last year. During the first few times of communicating with them we knew it would be a nice partnership. Their team is great to work with, you can tell they value what a partnership should be and not just a customer. I would recommend visiting their facility. You can always tell a lot about a company with how they keep their facility. There are many facilities you walk into that may not be the cleanest. You can tell the PSI team takes pride in their work with how clean they keep their facilities. Great company with a great team.
Gat Caperton2024-01-16PSI just completed a second wood furniture finishing line for Gat Creek. Both are world-class. The first was completed in 2005 and helped lead our factory through a renaissance. Our product got better and customers/consumers noticed! The 2005 line also improved our productivity significantly. Though designed to be similar, the 2023 finishing line that PSI designed and installed outperforms the original. Too often, the quality of the design and craftsmanship of manufacturing systems decline when compared over time…but not with PSI. We have two winners on our hands and look forward to working with PSI again in the future. They have our highest recommendation.
