Qualità, efficienza, automazione e ricercatezza: oggi chi vuole rimanere competitivo nel trattamento superficiale dei manufatti industriali deve rivolgersi a chi sa coniugare tutti questi fattori in soluzioni su misura per la propria azienda ad alto contenuto tecnologico.
Quality, efficiency, automation, and sophistication: today, those who want to remain competitive in the surface treatment of industrial products must turn to those who can combine all these factors in customized, high-tech solutions for their company.
Washing
This process aims to remove and eliminate organic and inorganic contaminants from the surface of industrial products, adhering to the cleanliness level determined by their intended use and industrial process parameters. Washing methods can be chemical or physical, resulting in different washing techniques that are more or less suitable for specific applications. In addition to washing itself, pre-washing, rinsing, and drying also need to be managed.
The variety of characteristics in the pieces to be washed and the quality requirements imposed by different sectors demand constant research and development from Triton to propose flexible and reliable technological solutions capable of handling any type of contaminant, material, and geometry.
Passivation/Protection
Passivation and protection are two different approaches with the same goal: to increase the durability of mechanical components by creating a film that isolates the part from specific corrosion factors (protection) or alters its chemical characteristics to make it less susceptible to environmental factors (passivation).
Triton offers numerous solutions for the surface treatment of parts in terms of passivation and protection, including intermediate stages of contaminant removal to ensure the success of these two processes. We provide highly technological machinery, including customized options, that incorporate automation and monitoring systems to achieve maximum results with minimal use of operator time.
Surface Preparation
Surface preparation modifies the chemical and physical properties of a metal surface, ensuring it has the most suitable characteristics for its final use through processes such as phosphating (widely applied as preparation for painting), chromating, phosphochromating, fluotitanation, and fluozirconation. These processes are often accompanied by washing with demineralized water and passivation treatments.
Triton develops solutions for the surface preparation of industrial products, including demineralized water washing and passivation, optimizing the treatment time of metal surfaces and consistently ensuring high-quality results in line with the specific requirements of the relevant industry.
Removal of Surface Layers
The success of various processes such as electroplating, chemical conversion, and painting depends on a starting surface free of contaminants. Degreasing, which involves removing grease, oil, and particulate dirt through physical processes, and pickling, which involves removing oxides through chemical reactions, play a crucial role in industrial processes.
Triton is constantly researching new solutions to make the removal of surface layers from industrial products through degreasing and pickling easier, more automatic, and efficient. We integrate cutting-edge technologies, environmentally and operator safety-conscious processes, and measures aimed at reducing resource consumption, whether it be energy, water, detergents, chemicals, or operator time.
