So I am new to this site and not sure if this would be the correct place for this post but I'll give it a try.
So there is a bearing block on the machine I manufacture, 1.3748+.0000-.0002. I recently sent a batch of 50pcs to our anodizer, the parts left in acceptable condition on the bore. Full inspection reports to go with. After receiving the parts back the bore is now measuring 1.376 to 1.377!?!
In 10 years I have never seen of, heard of, or in any other way known of any anodizing process that has made a bore shrink! And yes I mean shrink not grow as the bore should grow making it smaller.
Any ideas?
