Powder coating

Powder coating is a modern, environmentally friendly painting method that uses solvent-free powder paint and does not release volatile organic compounds. This method is an ideal solution for achieving a durable and high-quality surface finish. The quality of powder coating is ensured on an automated line equipped with state-of-the-art technology (Swiss manufacturer Gema).

We have RAL and RR colours in our colour range. As a standard, we coat the surfaces of the parts to be painted with a powder coating of 70+/-5 microns, in other cases it is a special arrangement.

Powder coating options

  • Max part dimensions: 1100 x 1100 x 400 mm
  • Max part weight: 100 kg / per meter

Electrolytic zinc plating on a rack

Electrolytic zinc plating is a common method of coating steel. The coating achieved during the treatment process provides reasonable corrosion protection and a pleasing appearance at low cost. Thanks to the different passivations used, it is possible to achieve parts with different colour and corrosion resistance. Electrolytic zinc plating is also often used under paint to improve corrosion resistance and paint adhesion.

Electrolytic zinc plating options

  • Max dimensions of the item to be covered: 3,1 x 0,4 x 1,2 m
  • Max weight of galvanised part: 100 kg
  • Post-processing: blue and yellow passivation

Electrolytic zinc plating in a barrel

Electrolytic zinc plating is a common method of coating steel. The coating achieved during the treatment process provides reasonable corrosion protection and a pleasing appearance at low cost. Thanks to the different passivations used, it is possible to achieve parts with different colour and corrosion resistance. Smaller parts can be galvanized using the barrel method.

Electrolytic zinc plating options

  • Max length of detail to be covered: 180 mm
  • Max weight of galvanised part: 300 g
  • Post-processing: blue passivation

Electrolytic nickel plating on the rack

Nickel plating is used in the electronics and electrical industries. The surface of the item to be coated will remain glossy.
The main coating materials are steel and brass.

Electrolytic nickel plating options for racks

  • Max dimensions of the item to be covered: 2,8 x 0,3 x 1,2 m
  • Max weight of the workpiece: 100 kg

Electrolytic nickel plating in the barrel

  • Max length of detail to be covered: 180 mm
  • Max weight of the piece to be fired: 300 g

Electrolytic chromium plating

Chrome plating is the process of coating a piece with a nickel base. As a result, gloss and corrosion protection of the substrate is achieved. The nickel/chrome (Ni/Cr) surface is strong, good looking and gives reasonable protection to the substrate.

Electrolytic chromium plating options

  • Max dimensions of the item to be covered: 2,8 x 0,3 x 1,2 m
  • Max weight of chrome plated part: 100 kg

Electrolytic tinning

Electrolytic tin plating improves the corrosion resistance of the part, as well as its electrical conductivity, and adds machinability and solderability. Due to its low transfer resistance, it is mostly used in the electrical and electronics industries. Under the tin coating, a nickel layer (3-6µm) is used to prevent the substrate from mixing with the coating.

Electrolytic tinning options

  • Max dimensions of the item to be covered: 2,8 x 0,3 x 1,2 m
  • Max weight of part to be tinned: 100 kg

Stainless metal passivation

Passivation of stainless steel is a chemical process that removes oxide layers, welding residues and machining marks from the surface of the part. After treatment, the surface of the piece remains greyish and satin matt. Passivation increases corrosion resistance and homogenises the appearance of the part.

Stainless metal passivation options

  • Max dimensions of the workpiece: 2,8 x 0,3 x 1,2 m
  • Max weight of passive part: 100 kg

Other services

  • Vibratory finishing of parts – we use abrasive stones or metal balls to remove burrs.
  • Warehousing – we store and, if necessary, complete the customer’s products.
  • Measuring ports – to measure the thickness of the surface layer, we use an X-Ray device or a hand-held gauge, depending on the customer’s requirements.
    NB! To receive an X-Ray measurement report and a printout of the results, please submit this request with your order.
    The X-Ray measurement report costs €10 per product.
