Tube drawing is a critical manufacturing process that creates precise, high-quality metal tubes used in everything from automotive parts to construction materials. The process transforms stock materials into finished tubes with precise dimensions....
Coagulants cause coating particles in wastewater to join together into micro-flocs and allow them to be separated during further treatment. Read here about where wastewater is generated during painting processes, how detackification works, what...
« The Importance of Surface Treatment for Equipment Efficiency » In common terminology, the phrase "maintenance and servicing of machinery and equipment" is frequently used. Strictly speaking, servicing is a broader category that includes...
« How Reconditioned Barrels Help Reduce CO2 Emissions » Barrels are a widely used packaging solution for chemicals consumed throughout the industrial sector. Lubricants, cleaning agents, corrosion protection products, paints, and coatings can be...
« Key Areas for Environmental Action in the Chemical Industry » Growing public interest in sustainability is prompting more business leaders to take responsibility for a sustainable future and to implement improved environmental measures within...
To develop effective methods for reducing friction-related losses of material and energy, it is necessary to develop a clear understanding of the mechanisms underlying friction and wear. In this context, the term "tribosystem" was introduced. The...
Near net shape manufacturing refers to production processes that deliver workpieces whose contours are close to their final dimensions. The term is used to distinguish these methods from subtractive machining, which can achieve tighter tolerances...
Water beads up on many surfaces. After a rain shower, tiny droplets can still be seen on windows for a long time. This occurs because thin water films contract into droplets. All these are effects of surface tension, which becomes a problem when...
Wherever the word “duplex” appears, it usually refers to something double-layered. In surface technology, duplex systems are no exception—they consist of two protective layers to defend against corrosion. The bottom layer is created through hot-dip...
« A Brief Overview of the process » Anodizing is a process that provides aluminum semi-finished products (partially processed materials) or workpieces with a corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant surface. This protective layer is formed with the...
