From process vessels to complex pipe systems — our chemical and electrochemical processes ensure maximum corrosion resistance, hygiene and durability in modern apparatus engineering.

Stringent quality requirements are imposed on the production of mixing and storage containers, process chambers, piping systems, heat exchangers, etc. (for the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries, vacuum technology and cryogenic technology, and many other areas).
The aim of classic apparatus construction is to manufacture cost-optimized apparatuses with properties that meet the specified requirements concerning corrosion behavior for the given media, pressure, and temperature. Apart from suitable materials selection, use of a suitable welding method, and a sufficient quality of workmanship, the surface treatment, as the last processing step, is given high priority. Roughness, microbial growth, and cleaning requirements should be minimal.
Deburring and polishing — increase functionality
Electropolishing significantly improves gloss, roughness, cleaning and corrosion behavior. At the same time, germ growth is significantly reduced and sharp-edged surfaces are reliably deburred. In this way, every workpiece develops its full functionality and durability.
Surface finishing by pickling
Pickling completely removes scale, tarnish and contaminants. The result is metallically bare, homogeneous surfaces with significantly increased corrosion resistance — particularly with stainless steel and welds.
Surface Passivation for Corrosion Protection
Through the passivation process, the corrosion potential of the metal surfaces is greatly reduced, whereas the other material properties remain unchanged..
