GE (General Electric): Custom Metal Nameplates for IoT Devices

The Challenge: The Mirror Effect

A Smart Fridge manufacturer required a large, thin (0.15mm) logo with a perfect chrome mirror finish. Stamping trials resulted in wavy surfaces and “Orange Peel” texture.

The Solution: Switching to Etching

Etching vs. Stamping: We utilized Through-Etching. Since no die impact was involved, the mirror surface remained pristine.

Clean Room Assembly: To prevent dust inclusions, final inspection was moved to our Class 10,000 Clean Room.

The Result:

• Optical Quality: Ra < 0.03 microns surface roughness.

• Zero Bleeding: Hand-applied undersized adhesive ensured clean edges.

Engineering Q&A: Surface Perfection

Q: How do you solve “Orange Peel” on mirror finishes?

A: For thicknesses <0.2mm, we abandon stamping. We use Chemical Etching. This stress-free process maintains perfect flatness, ensuring a reflection as clear as glass.
