Thanks to new technology and products on the market, Gent Machine can now offer a nano coating technology.
Although we aren’t exclusive to one product, our research was directed toward the Nano-clear product. We researched this product when quoting a temperature control knob for your vehicle. As a supplier to the automotive industry we not only want to produce parts that go into the mechanics but also parts that are visible and used every day. These parts require a visually perfect exterior, which we are capable or producing using our swiss cnc machines. Then, with the help of a nano coating, the part’s finish will be more durable and will last longer than parts made several years ago.
Nano-clear, specifically, provides extreme corrosion resistance, abrasion, chemical & UV resistance, water repellency and reduced surface maintenance. Nano-Clear NCI-RC penetrates deep into the pores of newly painted or highly oxidized paints, enhances color, improves gloss, increases surface hardness and extends UV resistance. Nano-Clear is a 1K humidity cured / highly cross-linked polyurethane hybrid nanocoating.
Similar to this product are other nano coatings which provide a super hydrophobic layer. This term simply means ‘afraid of water’ and if you watch any of the videos online these super hydrophobic products turn almost anything into a water, dirt, grime, etc. repellant. More to follow on our escapades with these new technologies.
Delivery truck added to fleet

Ball stud central
Gent Machine has now 4 run different ball studs jobs in the last 5 years. Although we were told we were “competitive” on 6 different ball studs, we were only awarded the four. The 4 we have run range from 1215 and 12L14 steel to 303 stainless and sizes from…

GTo keep up with customer’s demands, Gent Machine has added another new machine. This time we’ve increased our capabilities by adding a 32mm capacity sliding headstock automatic, also known as a swiss style cnc machine, from Citizen. It is a model A32 type VII which has milling, cross drilling, cross tapping, face milling, polygon milling, simultaneous machining of the front and back spindle to reduce cycle time, high pressure coolant, and automatic bar feeding capabilities. This falls in line with our current machine capabilities but increases the size to 1.25″ diameter capacity.
As with our recent multispindle CNC purchase, we hope this machine opens up new opportunities for customers with larger part needs.
