Prototyping

Everything begins with an idea: a new form, a technological innovation, the perfect harmony between technology and aesthetics. The designers work together with technicians and prototypists to include construction details and determine the exact proportions by transforming their designs ideas into functional prototypes, with a precision and final result that is equal to the product that will be eventually made in final production. 

Stamping

Die-casting of brass and zinc alloy is a production process that allows us to obtain precise thicknesses and an excellent surface finish by reducing porosity and impurities.

Hot forging makes brass more resistant, reduces waste, and ensures a surface that is completely free of pores, a trait that is fundamental when aiming to produce the highest level of handles.

Mechanical processing

Sandblasting, grinding, vibrating, satin finishing, and polishing are the various processing phases carried out both by hand and by numerically controlled robots to obtain the desired degree of finish, while guaranteeing precision and speed. For particular handles, these processes are exclusively completed by the mastery of the human hand. The craftsman combines strength with sensitivity to obtain handcrafted masterpieces.

Finishes

Manital offers a variety of galvanic and PVD finishes. The galvanic finishing process coats the base metal of the handle with a metal of another nature, rendering it more resistant and long lasting. The galvanic finishes are offered in: chrome, nickel, bronze, and brass.
PVD or Physical Vapor Deposition technology is achieved by vaporizing metals in a vacuum, and depositing the particles onto the handle, which offers strong aesthetic, technical, and eco sustainable characteristics.

Lacquering

Manital utilizes spray painting, cataphoresis, and powder coating for RAL colorations. Varnishing is a highly resistant finishing process, characterized by its use of electrostatic systems for application, which guarantees and preserves the handle for many years.

Assembly
and branding

All assembly phases take place within the factory, using automated machinery that allows you to check the quality and functionality of the product before the final branding occurs. 

Packaging

During the packaging phase, in which eco sustainable boxes are used, the operator with their sensitivity and experience, perform the final check to ensure that everything is perfect.
