Galvanising and painting in our own factory
Our modern electrochemical coating plant enables us to achieve short distances and fast throughput times for nickel plating and galvanising for components up to 1,600 mm in length and 600 x 300 mm in width and height.
As corrosion protection for the workpieces or to increase the wear resistance of the workpiece surface, we offer
Bright zinc - Matt nickel - Bright nickel - Electroless nickel - Blue chromated
We paint components up to a size of 2,000 x 1,500 mm and a weight of 500 kg in the paint booth and up to 250 kg in our paint line and in the paint booths with modern 2-component paints.
Bright zinc
To produce a uniformly matt surface, we use special matt nickel electrolytes that work with finely dispersed solutions or suspended solids.
Bright nickel plating
Special brightening additives in the electrolytes are used to level out fine irregularities in the surface of the raw parts, creating a shiny surface. Bright nickel coatings are more brittle than matt nickel coatings.
Electroless Nickel
No external electric current is used when depositing the nickel layer. The electrons required to deposit the nickel ions are generated in the bath itself by means of a redox reaction, resulting in conformal coatings with a layer thickness ranging from 8 µm to 80 µm and a tolerance of ± 2 µm to ± 3 µm.
Electroplated nickel
Electroplated nickel is a coating of pure nickel that is deposited using an electric current. The multi-layer systems consist of iron/copper/nickel or iron/copper/nickel/chrome. Iron or steel is protected against corrosion by a 25 µm to 50 µm thin nickel layer. Electroplated nickel layers are generally used as optical corrosion protection layers or as a soldering base.
Blue chromating
Blue chromating or thick-film passivation refers to a very light bluish colour tint that zinc surfaces acquire after treatment. Zinc is chromated by immersing it in a blue chromating bath.
