Overmolding Surface finishes Techniques
Sanding smooths the surface of overmolded parts, especially where there’s a seam or excess material, ensuring a uniform finish and a comfortable grip in consumer goods.
Texturing creates a matte or grippy surface on overmolded parts, improving tactile feedback and preventing slipping, commonly applied to tools or ergonomic handles.
Anodizing is applied to metal inserts in overmolded parts to provide corrosion resistance and an aesthetic finish that improves longevity in harsh environments.
