Surface processing and treatment for metals
Surface treatment is a decisive step in metal processing, both functionally and visually. At Göppel Metallbau, we offer you a wide range of processes for the surface treatment of metal - tailored to the material, intended use and economic requirements.
Our services cover the entire range of surface technology - from grinding and polishing to coating, galvanizing, chrome plating, burnishing and electroplating applications.

Advantages of surface treatment
Professional surface treatment of metal not only improves the appearance of a component, but also fulfills important technical functions. It protects, facilitates further processing and ensures quality in use.
Your benefits at a glance:
- Corrosion protection and durability
- Defined surface properties such as hardness, sliding properties or adhesion
- Function and appearance in one step - tailored to the overall result
Which surface treatment makes sense for your component depends on many factors: Material, application conditions, optical specifications and regulations. We provide you with expert advice, coordinate suitable processes and, if required, also take care of special processes as part of the overall production process.
Metal grinding and polishing
The polishing and grinding of metal allows surfaces to be specifically processed for technical or optical requirements - from uniform grinding patterns to mirror-like high-gloss polishing.
- Belt grinding, surface grinding and edge grinding of metals
- Polishing of aluminum, stainless steel or steel
- Preparation of technical surfaces for fits, seals or welded joints
Coating metal with powder coating
Coatings offer mechanical protection, weather resistance and visual variety. We advise you on the most suitable solution - depending on the component, stress and surface.
- Powder coating of stainless steel, steel and aluminum
- Special coatings such as anti-slip coatings for metal or plastic coatings on metals
Have metal parts galvanized nearby
Galvanizing is used to protect steel against corrosion. Depending on the process, a different zinc coating is created - functionally and visually adapted.
- Hot-dip galvanizing for high corrosion resistance outdoors
- Galvanizing for uniform coating thickness and low dimensional deviation
- Surface finishing through passivation (e.g. blue galvanizing, yellow galvanizing, black galvanizing)
Have surfaces chrome-plated in your area
Chrome-plated surfaces not only offer a shiny appearance, but also high resistance to wear and corrosion.
- Chrome plating of metal components for functional or visual requirements
- Hard chrome plating for highly stressed components (e.g. guides, piston rods)
- Decorative chrome plating for components with high visual quality
Burnishing of metal
Burnishing metal is a classic method of surface finishing, especially for steel. It protects against corrosion, has a matt to dark blue-black effect and influences the friction and sliding properties of metals.
- Burnishing of steel and iron for basic corrosion protection and reduced light reflection
- Can be combined with oil impregnation for better corrosion protection
- Typical applications: Machine parts, tool holders, fixture elements
- Alternative to coatings for low optical requirements
Galvanizing metal parts
Electroplating enables the targeted application of metallic layers using an electrochemical process. This allows optical effects, electrical conductivity or hardness properties to be adjusted.
- Electroplating of various metals
- Electroplating of metal layers such as zinc, nickel and chrome
- Electrogalvanizing for precisely fitting, electrically conductive protective coatings
- Suitable for complex geometries with internal surfaces
