Material solution

Aluminium polishing.

Aluminium combines rapid material response with sensitivity to heat, smearing, embedded contamination and surface waviness. Product selection must be paired with contact mechanics and cleaning.

Public starting points

Catalogue evidence, not a universal recipe.

The following matches are reproduced from public Europolish application and product tables. They narrow the screening set; they do not release the final code, tool or machine window.

Profiles & extrusions

ALOX KL 4098 and related ALOX variants appear as cut starting points; 700 PT-20 appears for cut & colour; RILOR VERDE and KL-7300 appear for brightening.

Named public matrix

Decorative components

Fine preparation must remove prior lines without flattening radii or creating local heat.

Named public matrix

One-step targets

A cut & colour route is credible only when the incoming surface is already controlled and the finish specification allows it.

Named public matrix

Tool selection

Open, ventilated cotton can improve cooling and conformity; harder construction increases contact but also geometry and heat risk.

Incoming surfaceDefect, direction, depth, current abrasive preparation
MachineMode, power, speed, contact time, part handling
ToolConstruction, diameter, width, density, condition
CompoundForm, dosing, transfer, current consumption
AcceptanceVisual standard, roughness, cleaning, throughput
