At uMake Canada, we believe in true one-stop manufacturing. We handle every step in-house. That’s why we’re excited to announce our latest addition: professional metal finishing services. Now, you can access these services instantly alongside laser cutting, 5-axis waterjet, CNC routing, and precision CNC metal bending.
Why Metal Finishing Matters More Than Ever
Raw laser-cut or bent edges can be sharp. They may have micro-burrs or show heat-affected marks. These imperfections are unacceptable for end-use parts, especially in critical industries. Think aerospace, medical devices, food equipment, architectural panels, robotics, and consumer electronics.
Our new in-house finishing department eliminates the need to ship parts to a third-party finisher. This saves you time, money, and logistical headaches.
What’s Included in uMake Metal Finishing?
Every finishing order receives a consistent, high-quality treatment that includes:
Deburring: Removal of sharp burrs and slag for safe handling and assembly.
Edge Rounding: Controlled radius of edges (typically R0.5–1.5 mm) to eliminate stress risers and improve safety.
Uniform Number 4 Scotch-Brite™ Finish: This industry-standard brushed look hides fingerprints and minor scratches, providing a premium aesthetic.
We routinely process:
Aluminum (5052, 6061, 7075, etc.)
Stainless steel (304, 316, 430)
Carbon & mild steel
Brass & copper
Galvanneal and pre-painted materials (with careful masking when required)
Same Fast Canadian Turnaround You Already Love
Because finishing is now under the same roof as cutting and bending, you can expect:
Most orders ship in 1–2 business days after production.
No minimum order quantity or extra setup fees.
Instant pricing and lead times directly on uMake.ca. Just upload your STEP or DXF and select “Add Finishing”.
Perfect for Prototypes AND Production

The Benefits of In-House Metal Finishing
Having metal finishing in-house offers numerous advantages. First, it streamlines the entire process. You won’t have to deal with multiple vendors. This means fewer delays and better communication. You can focus on your design while we handle the finishing.
Additionally, in-house services ensure quality control. We monitor every step, ensuring that your parts meet the highest standards. You can trust that your finished products will be exactly what you envisioned.
