The Challenge: Precision Limits in Thin Sheet Finishing Processing ultra-thin aluminum sheets for high-precision components—such as computer panels—presents significant manufacturing challenges. A Korean supplier manufacturing 1.5mm aluminum panels for Samsung previously relied on manual grinding. This traditional approach resulted in recurring surface scratches, inconsistent finishing quality, high labor costs, and low throughput.
The Solution: JOTUN Custom Wet Deburring & Grinding System Seeking a reliable automated solution, the client partnered with JOTUN. After a comprehensive technical evaluation of panel specifications, defect patterns, and capacity targets, JOTUN designed a customized wet grinding and deburring machine specifically engineered for delicate 1.5mm aluminum sheets.
Key Technical Highlights:
Defect-Free Wet Processing: Coolant-assisted grinding effectively removes scratches, burrs, and oxidation without warping or damaging thin metal.
Automated Consistency: Replaces manual variance with precise, repeatable surface finishing across large production volumes.
Scalable Deployment: Impressed by factory testing and trial results, the customer invested in 4 sets of fully automatic machines.
End-to-End Support & Results JOTUN delivered full lifecycle service—from pre-delivery factory acceptance testing (FAT) to on-site installation, commissioning, operational training, and ongoing production guidance. The client seamlessly integrated the new equipment into their active line, achieving superior surface uniformity, zero-scratch quality control, reduced labor overhead, and boosted operational efficiency.
