Industrial tooling and components demand long periods of uninterrupted service and operation without significant wear and deterioration. Their performance and durability is greatly improved with the application of highly specialized surface treatments. DCI utilizes industry standard plating and coatings which increase corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and lubricity, and greatly reduce friction and galling.

DCI Aerotech has provided highly engineered surface solutions to the industrial tooling and component industry sectors since 1948, beginning with providing surface solution services to those involved with manufacturing and supplying the war effort of WWII.

DCI provides manufacturing and repair services for the following key industries and applications:

• Hydraulic and pneumatic components
• Gas and oil components
• Machine tool components
• Steel processing
• Paper and pulp processing
• Alternative energy components

DCI Aerotech’s surface technologies are applied to ferrous and non-ferrous materials to enhance and improve wear and abrasion resistance, reduce friction, prevent seizing and galling, and to restore dimensions of undersized and worn parts and components.

Utilizing complex tooling and masking techniques, DCI Aerotech has the ability to plate and/or surface treat intricate details and provide uniformed deposits with materials such as chrome, nickel, nickel sulfamate, electroless nickel, zinc nickel, and black oxide.

DCI also has the ability to apply highly engineered HVOF (High Velocity Oxygen Fueled) coatings, such as Tungsten-Carbide, Cobalt, and Carbide-Nickel Chrome.

DCI Aerotech is not only an industry leader in the application of enhanced industrial surface solutions but also has the experience, skills, and equipment to provide a high precision, completely ground-to-dimension part or component.
