Finishing Yearbook 2024

Welcome to the 46th edition of the Finishing Industries Yearbook – the essential guide for everyone involved in the UK surface treatment industry. Each year I write a little note about the events of the past year, and how they have affected the industry. Like most my age we only seem to recall the difficulties faced over the past year. However, it is always good to read how the industry circumnavigates each situation. We hope that you find this edition an invaluable aid to sourcing suppliers to provide the solution to your specific needs. It is used by the whole buying chain from trade finishing houses to manufacturers of a wide variety of products from white goods to automotive. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the businesses that have contributed to the compilation of this yearbook. If you have any comments, suggestions or would like to be included in the next edition, please email me at b.williams@turretgroup.com. The Buyers’ Guide categories have been updated this year with the new headings of “Lubricants/Grease” and “Solvent Recovery’. In the Regional Guide, there is the new category of “Chemical Etching & Etch Inspection”. The Finishing Industries Yearbook Team & Finishing Industries Magazine Team wish you all the very best for 2024!

<strong>2024</strong> edition – <strong>Finishing</strong> Industries <strong>Yearbook</strong>


Removing Metals and Impurities to Achieve Compliance and<br />

Minimise Water Discharge.<br />

SERFILCO SerPure CeraMol Molecular Filters utilise ceramic media for removal of dissolved metals and<br />

pollutants from industrial waste waters. Special customized media will remove industrial pollutants and<br />

allow extraction of valuable materials from rinses and waste-water. Serfilco SerPure media is designed so it<br />

can be regenerated, but low cost enough that it can be replaced at point of exhaustion.<br />

Applications:<br />

• Polishing of Waste-Water to enable re-use of valuable water (remove COD, Organics, Cu, Ni, Cr, Zn, Sn, Cd,<br />

Al, Fe).<br />

• Filtration of Rinses to enable recovery and/or removal of metals from the waste-water cycle.<br />

Advantages:<br />

• Consent to Discharge limits will be met.<br />

• The total water consumption and discharge costs will be minimized due to the recycling of a portion of the<br />

final treated effluent from the WWTP that can be re-used in the plant.<br />

• Recycling of the rinse tanks minimizes the need for fresh water and thus reduces water consumption and<br />

reduces the final wastewater discharged to the WWTP by the rinse tanks.<br />

experienced racer Mike Nippers.<br />

He’s since handed over the<br />

drivers’ seat to his 20-year-old<br />

son, Tom who is currently<br />

competing in the Formula Ford<br />

Series – a type of motorsport<br />

that’s hosted young talent for the<br />

past 50 years.<br />

n Following a strong technical<br />

and commercial partnership<br />

spanning some 30 years PMD<br />

Chemicals have acquired the pre-treatment business of Trimite.<br />

May/June 2023<br />

n Hi-line Industries is well<br />

known for the long-standing<br />

support it provides to the local<br />

sporting community in Burton<br />

upon Trent. The company is a<br />

main sponsor at both Burton<br />

Albion Football Club and Burton<br />

Rugby Football Club. Now,<br />

8 COMPANY PROFILE<br />

Are you a 3M ® user looking to find a suitable alternative solvent?<br />

Don’t switch, improve!<br />

What to be aware of before you<br />

switch?<br />

Suitability of equipment, material<br />

compatibility, product<br />

performance, legal compliance<br />

and safety categories are just<br />

some of the key areas to look at<br />

here. The Opteon ® range are<br />

extremely safe and non<br />

flammable and MSDS can be<br />

supplied for all chemistries<br />

showcasing our transparent<br />

selling priority. At Frasers we can<br />

run application trials with suitable<br />

alternatives and advise on<br />

alternative chemistries and or<br />

equipment if relevant.<br />

You may have heard the latest<br />

information from 3M ® that they<br />

will exit from manufacturing their<br />

range of Novec TM cleaning fluids<br />

in the near future. If you are a<br />

current 3M ® Novec TM user you<br />

will need to start to find 3M ®<br />

alternative solvents. Fraser<br />

Technologies are here to help<br />

with the perfect solutions.<br />

What is the update from 3M ® ?<br />

3M ® have announced that they<br />

will stop manufacturing the<br />

Novec TM HFE materials by the<br />

end of 2025. They also stated in<br />

a letter sent to all their customers<br />

that they cannot guarantee<br />

supply and that current users<br />

should be looking at alternatives<br />

as quickly as possible.<br />

Are you a current 3M ® user? If<br />

yes what does the update from<br />

3M ® mean for you?<br />

While there are no immediate<br />

issues with supply it would be<br />

prudent to consider your options<br />

before the supply of the 3M ®<br />

materials becomes an issue.<br />

Frasers can help with direct drop<br />

in alternatives to the Novec TM<br />

materials as well as alternative<br />

technologies such as water wash<br />

and solvent recovery systems etc.<br />

What alternatives are available<br />

for me to switch to?<br />

There are a few direct drop in<br />

alternatives available, but it<br />

should be noted that many of<br />

these contain HFE materials<br />

manufactured by 3M ® which<br />

could also shortly fall low in<br />

supplies or be restricted by<br />

upcoming legislation. So Fraser<br />

Technologies are focusing on<br />

switching existing 3M ® customers<br />

not over to an alternative but<br />

actually an improvement.<br />

Why is the new 3M ® alternative<br />

Chemours Opteon ® an<br />

improvement?<br />

• Our Optoen ® range<br />

manufactured by Chemours<br />

(part of the Dupont TM portfolio)<br />

are one of the largest chemical<br />

manufacturers in the world.<br />

• Chemours produce some of<br />

the highest quality chemicals<br />

improving cleaning<br />

performance than<br />

predecessors.<br />

• The Optoen ® chemicals<br />

are some of the most<br />

environmentally friendly (by a<br />

long way!) as they have a<br />

GWP (global warming<br />

potential)


SMART SOLUTION FOR<br />

POWDER COATING.<br />

10 COMPANY PROFILE<br />

MecWash drives Automotive Component Cleaning<br />

MecWash Systems is helping the<br />

automotive industry to deliver on<br />

environmental performance and<br />

high precision cleaning using the<br />

latest in aqueous parts washing<br />

technology. MecWash has kept<br />

pace with the evolution of the<br />

motor industry by embedding<br />

advanced technologies in their<br />

industrial parts washers, providing<br />

real-time monitoring and feedback<br />

to clean high volumes of<br />

components with ease.<br />

International<br />

OEM’s such as JLR,<br />

JCB, Caterpillar/<br />

Perkins, Cummins<br />

and Triumph<br />

Motorcycles all<br />

benefit from<br />

MecWash parts<br />

washing systems.<br />

This experience has<br />

provided the<br />

MecWash team with<br />

a vast knowledge of designing,<br />

building and servicing aqueous<br />

cleaning systems for automotive<br />

applications and the high<br />

standards that the giants of the<br />

industry require.<br />

The applications of the motor<br />

industry require precision<br />

cleaning and degreasing. The<br />

MecWash team conduct detailed<br />

laboratory tests and machine<br />

trials on components at its<br />

Tewkesbury facility to identify the<br />

optimum system configuration,<br />

wash process, chemistry and<br />

fixtures. MecWash’s expertise<br />

covers all the main precision<br />

manufactured automotive<br />

components including both ICE<br />

and electric powertrain, braking<br />

systems, steering systems and<br />

hydraulics for “yellow goods”.<br />

MecWash’s core washing<br />

process combines rotating<br />

components held securely in<br />

baskets, fixtures or plastic<br />

containers about the horizontal<br />

axis while subjecting them to a<br />

high-volume spray and flood<br />

process, also using ultrasonics<br />

where needed. MecWash’s<br />

dedicated jetting rotates with the<br />

components, focusing on critical<br />

features and designed for each<br />

customer’s specific application.<br />

This bespoke approach helps to<br />

target contamination directly,<br />

providing precise cleanliness and<br />

fast cycle times. Hot air and<br />

vacuum drying finish the process<br />

to give completely dry<br />

components.<br />

John Pattison, managing<br />

director at MecWash,<br />

commented: “MecWash has<br />

established a reputation in the<br />

automotive industry for creating<br />

reliable and powerful parts<br />

washing machines for customers<br />

around the world. The addition of<br />

a MecWash system can have a<br />

tremendous impact on<br />

production output for<br />

manufacturers looking for high<br />

volume washing with minimal<br />

downtime.”<br />

wave of technology to support<br />

autonomous operation that<br />

enables our customers to stay<br />

ahead of the competition.<br />

Our second generation of<br />

Dynamic Contour Detection<br />

consists of our new laser scanner<br />

paired with the advanced<br />

generation of the vertical<br />

reciprocator type ZA16 and the<br />

individual gun axes type UA05.<br />

The solution detects the objects<br />

profile automatically and positions<br />

the guns individually even for<br />

thin objects and at high conveyor<br />

speeds. Due to the programmingfree<br />

adaption of all relevant line<br />

settings the application range is<br />

significantly extended.<br />

The Dynamic<br />

Contour<br />

Detection<br />

solution is<br />

seamlessly<br />

integrated into<br />

the master<br />

MagicControl<br />

4.0, which<br />

automatically<br />

translates object<br />

shapes into<br />

optimized gun<br />

positions,<br />

matches the coating parameters<br />

and adjusts multiple gun axes to<br />

achieve outstanding coating<br />

results on complex geometries.<br />

Dynamic Contour Detection<br />

enables automated coating of<br />

difficult part geometries and<br />

solves complex application tasks.<br />

The part size is virtually unlimited<br />

and allows coating of small parts<br />

up to XXL parts. Multiple axis<br />

stations perform simultaneously<br />

for optimal coating of<br />

the entire surface of<br />

complex and large<br />

parts. The solution<br />

becomes fully scalable,<br />

which enables full<br />

coating flexibility, higher<br />

productivity and<br />

more production efficiency.<br />

We have several<br />

lines under manufacture<br />

for 2023 and<br />

already into production for <strong>2024</strong><br />

installations.<br />

12 COMPANY PROFILE<br />

RDM Engineering, Designers and Manufacturers of Paint and<br />

Powder Coating Plant since 1951<br />

conducted without contaminating<br />

further areas of a premises,<br />

RDM’s enclosed spray rooms<br />

represent an ideal solution. The<br />

Company’s traditional powder<br />

coating booths are commonly<br />

used across conveyorised Powder<br />

plants, with their after-filter<br />

extraction functionality well-suited<br />

to powder reclamation procedures.<br />

If a more compact alternative<br />

to a conventional powder coating<br />

booth is required, RDM’s<br />

cartridge-style Podbooths represent<br />

an appropriate solution.<br />

components to deliver solutions<br />

of this nature. Adherence to its<br />

core design principles coupled<br />

with the use of computer-assisted<br />

design techniques enable the<br />

Company to deliver a diverse<br />

array of oven layouts. All of the<br />

Company’s ovens can be characterised<br />

14 COMPANY PROFILE<br />

The purpose of attaching protective film to profiles for windows,<br />

doors and façades<br />

The surface of painted profiles,<br />

which may be scratched when<br />

manipulated during processing,<br />

should already be provided with<br />

protective film before initial processing.<br />

Customer claims due to<br />

damaged surfaces are reduced to<br />

a minimum as a result. Before<br />

foiling the surface is checked and,<br />

as a result of the film, the quality<br />

is maintained up to the delivery<br />

of the finished product. The film<br />

remains on the surface during all<br />

machining processes and is<br />

usually only removed after the<br />

installation of a window.<br />

The profile, which is inserted<br />

manually or via powered roller<br />

conveyors into the filming<br />

machine, is conveyed with a drive<br />

up to the knurling machine.<br />

Usually only one side is foiled in<br />

the process, but two-sided foiling<br />

is also possible. The beginning of<br />

the profile is detected by the<br />

control system, the film is pressed<br />

on fully automatically and cut off<br />

automatically at the end. The<br />

machine itself communicates with<br />

the downstream machine to<br />

synchronise and optimise speeds.<br />

Autonomous applications are<br />

possible too.<br />

For autonomous applications,<br />

different versions are available<br />

for one-sided up to four-sided<br />

wrapping. The machines can<br />

easily be adapted to very<br />

different profile shapes. The<br />

profiles are manually inserted or<br />

via roller conveyor fed into the<br />

wrapping machine. The film (a<br />

maximum of 4 pages at a time)<br />

is continually being pressed on<br />

and cut off automatically at the<br />

end of a profile.<br />

In addition to a good throughput<br />

speed, high demands are<br />

made on the performance of the<br />

machine regarding blistering and<br />

the placement of the film on the<br />

profile. The film itself also has an<br />

impact on its clean attachment.<br />

The adhesive power of the selfadhesive,<br />

as well as the ultimate<br />

elongation of the film, plays an<br />

important role in this. Good<br />

results can be achieved with an<br />

adhesive strength of 260cN / 20<br />

mm and a thickness of 80-100<br />

my. Thinner films are often used<br />

as well. In the case of structured<br />

colours, films with a significantly<br />

higher adhesive strength need to<br />

be used. After foiling, it must be<br />

borne in mind that the profiles or<br />

finished windows are not<br />

exposed to direct sunlight, as<br />

residues of the film may form in<br />

the surface coating as a result.<br />

color visualization tool to a<br />

degree of accuracy and realism<br />

not possible before in a virtual<br />

environment.<br />

Intelligent features and<br />

functionality enable customers to<br />

easily navigate the site and search<br />

for, find and compare hundreds<br />

of Interpon products, including<br />

the very latest low-energy (Low-E)<br />

powder coatings, all at the touch<br />

of the button. Administration has<br />

also been made easy, to manage<br />

new, ongoing and repeat orders.<br />

A Track and Trace feature enables<br />

customers to see how their order<br />

is progressing, while past and present<br />

invoices can also be accessed,<br />

reviewed, printed, and filed.<br />

Ordering has also been made<br />

simple: users can instantly see<br />

what’s in stock and how quickly<br />

they can get the powder coatings<br />

they need, with the corresponding<br />

technical specification data<br />

which can be downloaded to<br />

help them make the right<br />

decision. Customers can also<br />

quickly re-order products that<br />

they use most often.<br />

My Interpon Portal is yet<br />

another example of how Interpon<br />

is helping customers see,<br />

experience and use powder<br />

coatings, and realise a new world<br />

of possibilities. As Jeff Jirak,<br />

Director of AkzoNobel’s Powder<br />

Coatings business explains, the<br />

launch is further evidence of<br />

AkzoNobel’s commitment to<br />

customers:<br />

“We strive to make things<br />

easier for our customers with<br />

practical tools and support that<br />

makes us collectively more<br />

efficient. A significant development<br />

of our existing e-commerce<br />

site, we will continue to enrich<br />

and enhance the functionality of<br />

My Interpon Portal with new<br />

features to help customers access<br />

the powder coatings they need<br />

for the most urgent of urgent<br />

jobs.”<br />

16 COMPANY PROFILE<br />

Ferrozinc relaunches in 250ml packaging<br />

HMG Paints, a leading<br />

manufacturer of high-quality<br />

coatings and paints, is excited to<br />

announce the relaunch of<br />

Ferrozinc, a revolutionary waterbased<br />

rust converter. With its<br />

exceptional performance and ease<br />

of use, Ferrozinc is the go-to<br />

solution for rust conversion in areas<br />

where shot blasting, or complete<br />

rust removal is impractical or<br />

impossible.<br />

“Ferrozinc has been a popular<br />

product for our customers for a<br />

number of years and we’re proud<br />

to introduce the new 250ml size”<br />

commented James Burton of<br />

HMG. “It’s such a handy product<br />

for users in a number of industries<br />

from decorators and industrial<br />

applicators to agricultural and<br />

classic vehicle restoration.”<br />

Traditionally, rust removal has<br />

been a laborious and timeconsuming<br />

process, involving hours<br />

of wire brushing or the use of<br />

strong acidic chemicals that pose<br />

significant safety hazards. With<br />

HMG's Ferrozinc rust converter,<br />

however, this arduous task<br />

becomes a thing of the past. This is<br />

the perfect solution to anyone<br />

working in the decorative or<br />

industrial markets, and even classic<br />

car enthusiasts!<br />

Users only need to remove<br />

loose debris and poorly adhered<br />

surface rust, followed by a<br />

degreasing step to eliminate any<br />

contamination that may interfere<br />

with the chemical reaction.<br />

Afterward, a thin coat of Ferrozinc<br />

is applied to the rusted area, and<br />

within 30 minutes, the surface<br />

transforms into a black/navy colour,<br />

indicating the successful rust<br />

conversion. Any excess product<br />

can be easily wiped off, and after<br />

just +3 hours, the treated surface is<br />

ready to be overcoated with the<br />

user's preferred coating system.<br />

Ferrozinc's water-based<br />

formulation not only provides<br />

excellent rust conversion properties<br />

but also ensures a low odour,<br />

making it a more pleasant and<br />

user-friendly option compared to<br />

solvent-based alternatives.<br />

Ferrozinc is available in 250ml,<br />

1 Litre or 5 Litres and can be<br />

purchased direct from HMG,<br />

combination spray booth oven<br />

incorporates the very latest<br />

technology, providing the<br />

optimum paint application<br />

environment whilst minimising<br />

running costs.<br />

The Evolutionary Dalby<br />

‘ProActive’ touch screen control<br />

system constantly monitors the<br />

activity within the spray booth and<br />

automatically adjusts airflow,<br />

temperature and lighting to<br />

optimise overspray clearance and<br />

bake performance whilst<br />

minimising running costs.<br />

Featuring Performance, Smart<br />

and Economy modes with invertor<br />

controlled automatic pressure<br />

balancing, the airflow is<br />

automatically controlled to provide<br />

power consumption as low as 1Kw<br />

in Economy mode. This unique<br />

technology allows the Booth to<br />

offer your business long term cost<br />

savings without compromising the<br />

quality or performance your<br />

business demands<br />

With the high visibility LED<br />

mode indicator and countdown<br />

timer display fitted above the 3 leaf<br />

large window doors, the booth<br />

operating mode and count down<br />

timer is easily visible across any<br />

workshop.<br />

The factory-built air handling unit<br />

incorporates the fans, dampers and<br />

pilotless burner into a single unit,<br />

enabling a fast installation and<br />

unrivalled levels of reliability.<br />

Maintenance access from within<br />

the booth saves vital workshop<br />

space by enabling the booth to<br />

be positioned into a corner with<br />

no side or rear access required.<br />

This space saving design helps<br />

maximise usable floorspace.<br />

With rear extraction no pit is<br />

required, but the Dalby EQ is<br />

also available with downdraft air<br />

movement via pit extraction or<br />

with an internally ramped raised<br />

floor.<br />

New Evolution+ technology<br />

allows you to monitor and<br />

manage energy costs per job in<br />

real-time<br />

Our Evolution+ technology<br />

delivers all the same energy<br />

saving innovation as the<br />

Evolution Booths but with the<br />

added advantage of allowing you<br />

to view and manage the energy<br />

costs of your spray booth in<br />

real-time.<br />

Supporting the UK Surface Engineering Sector since 1887<br />

The Surface Engineering<br />

Association can trace its<br />

beginnings back to 1887 when<br />

the Platers' and Gilders' Trade<br />

Section of the Birmingham<br />

Jewellers' and Silversmiths'<br />

Association was founded to bring<br />

together numerous small,<br />

specialised plating companies<br />

who, in the main, serviced the<br />

Birmingham jewellers and<br />

silversmiths.<br />

This year the SEA continued its<br />

work in supporting the sector by<br />

assisting companies to obtain<br />

authorisation under the UK<br />

REACH Regulations. Companies<br />

using chromium trioxide had to<br />

apply for authorisation to continue<br />

its use and had to demonstrate that<br />

risk management measures<br />

reduced exposures in accordance<br />

with the ALARP – as low as<br />

reasonably practicable, principles.<br />

The SEA formed a consortium to<br />

assist 80 companies in applying for<br />

authorisation and allow them to<br />

remain in business and support<br />

UK manufacturing. As the SEA<br />

operates as a not-for-profit<br />

organisation, the consortium costs<br />

were kept to a minimum and the<br />

Health & Safety Executive, in<br />

conjunction with DEFRA, will soon<br />

be announcing the formal<br />

decisions on the applications for<br />

authorisations. The initial signs are<br />

very positive, and the SEA looks<br />

forward to assisting members in<br />

the future.<br />

Plans for <strong>2024</strong> include an<br />

industry conference to update<br />

members on all the latest<br />

developments, a UK stand at the<br />

German Surface Technology Show<br />

and continuation of the SEA<br />

Pavilion Stand and the Advanced<br />

Engineering Show. For further<br />

22 COMPANY PROFILE<br />

6 reasons to choose BRAUDE<br />

Neptune Immersion Heater<br />

Braude is well known throughout<br />

the metal finishing industry for<br />

the manufacture of heating and<br />

cooling equipment for the<br />

corrosive solutions found in many<br />

of the processes, from acid<br />

etching to electro and electroless<br />

plating and has been providing<br />

service to industry for over 60<br />

years. Since 2016 Braude has<br />

been part of the Element division<br />

of the NIBE Group, well known<br />

for pioneering MI based heating<br />

elements. The company has been<br />

absorbed into Heatrod Elements,<br />

based in Bolton and all the<br />

products are made in the<br />

purpose-built factory, which<br />

opened in February 2019, the<br />

Braude sales office is remains in<br />

Crowthorne not far from it’s<br />

original home for the last 46<br />

years, in Sandhurst.<br />

Braude products are still<br />

manufactured to the high<br />

quality standards demanded by<br />

our customers and all<br />

production and processes are<br />

fully certified to BS EN ISO<br />

9001:2015, in addition the<br />

factory is certified to the<br />

environmental standard<br />

BS EN ISO 14001:2015.<br />

Braude engineers are also<br />

continually talking to<br />

customers so that any<br />

specific modifications for their<br />

application can be tailored to<br />

their needs.<br />

The safety of the products in<br />

use is particularly important and<br />

a number of variations in heaters<br />

and controllers have been added<br />

to provide additional protection<br />

such as, over temperature<br />

protection for heaters. These<br />

include the Thermaster OTP and<br />

Thermaster OTF (Thermal fuse)<br />

systems. These combine with the<br />

HPD system that has been<br />

available on Polaris Popular and<br />

Modular heaters for many years.<br />

A full range of equipment<br />

available from one source<br />

The product range is continually<br />

being extended as it is easier<br />

for many customers to be able<br />

to order from one place. The<br />

most recent product to be<br />

added was the Polaris Neptune<br />

range of Tubular MI heaters.<br />

These have a moisture proof<br />

head to encapsulate the joint<br />

between the heater and the lead<br />

which is vital in any wet<br />

environment.<br />

Under control<br />

Accurate temperature control is<br />

essential for modern complex<br />

manufacturing plants and<br />

production processes. Besides<br />

the high demands of the industry<br />

there is a need for simple and<br />

vigorous products for the<br />

construction and building<br />

business sector. Braude are able<br />

to supply digital and analogue<br />

control panels compatible with<br />

Braude temperature and level<br />

controllers.<br />

Excellent service and order turn<br />

around.<br />

We maintain a stock of both<br />

finished goods and component<br />

parts so that products can be<br />

either despatched the same<br />

day as an order, or a nonstock<br />

item can be manufactured<br />

in a very short space of time.<br />

The paramount objective is<br />

to always satisfy customers’<br />

requirements. Our sales and<br />

technical staff are always<br />

available to provide advice and<br />

assistance.<br />

BRAUDE engineers will calculate<br />

specific heating requirements<br />

The first thing to do when<br />

selecting a heater is to estimate<br />

the kW size required. Our<br />

engineers will calculate this once<br />

they receive the tank details,<br />

which can be sent via a form on<br />

our website.<br />

The sales engineers have a<br />

good understand of the<br />

processes and can guide a<br />

customer through the heater<br />

selection procedure to suit the<br />

application.<br />

Committed to future growth and<br />

development<br />

Simon Ellam, the Managing<br />

Director of Heatrod Elements<br />

said ‘the Braude division is a<br />

valuable and profitable part of our<br />

company, but we know that if we<br />

do not invest in the brand it will<br />

not grow and we will not be able<br />

to continue to provide the current<br />

level of service to our customers.<br />

Since joining Heatrod & the NIBE<br />

Group Braude turnover has<br />

increased along with the number<br />

of large industrial projects<br />

undertaken.‘<br />

Products are up to date and<br />

continually improving<br />

It is Braude policy to improve<br />

and update our products<br />

wherever possible using the<br />

latest available technology.<br />

Exclusive Equine Sculpture Set To Go The Distance<br />

“When the piece returned<br />

from the galvanizers, safe in the<br />

knowledge that it would be rustfree,<br />

I used an antique copper<br />

and black powder coating to add<br />

more depth and detail to the<br />

framework,” Steve added.<br />

Tony Linsley, Sales Manager<br />

at Humber Galvanizing Ltd<br />

concluded: “We’re proud to have<br />

been able to assist Steve in<br />

ensuring the longevity of this<br />

striking horse sculpture using<br />

the galvanizing process. We<br />

thoroughly enjoy working with<br />

SA Fabrications, and look forward<br />

to the exciting projects they bring<br />

to us. We can’t wait to see what’s<br />

next!”<br />

Humber Galvanizing is part of<br />

Wedge Group Galvanizing Ltd,<br />

the largest hot-dip galvanizing<br />

organisation in the UK with a<br />

history dating back over 150<br />

years. With 14 plants strategically<br />

placed across the country, the<br />

firm offers a truly national<br />

galvanizing service.<br />

Humber Galvanizing Ltd have<br />

jumped into action alongside<br />

local fabricators to ensure a<br />

bespoke piece of art will stand<br />

the test of time.<br />

Driffield-based SA Fabrications<br />

were earlier this year commissioned<br />

to create a bespoke lifesized<br />

steel horse sculpture by<br />

local farmer, Paul Temple.<br />

Stephen Albinger, Founder<br />

and Owner at SA Fabrications,<br />

said: “Originally inspired by a<br />

performance of War Horse, Paul<br />

Temple and his wife, Liz,<br />

commissioned a bespoke horse<br />

sculpture to take pride of place in<br />

their garden. Spurred on by Liz’s<br />

passion for the animals, she<br />

provided four horse shoes to be<br />

included in the final framework.<br />

“After much deliberation and<br />

creative consideration, we<br />

decided the equine beast would<br />

be in a majestic mid-jump pose.<br />

The sculpture, which took around<br />

four weeks to create, stands at an<br />

impressive 2.3m high and 2.5m<br />

long, and weighs around 450kg.<br />

After fabrication, I enlisted the<br />

support of Humber Galvanizing,<br />

who I’ve worked with for over<br />

twenty years, to ensure it could<br />

withstand the elements when<br />

located outside.”<br />

At Humber Galvanizing, the<br />

horse was entirely immersed and<br />

hot-dipped into a large molten<br />

zinc bath. Coating the steel completely,<br />

the process allows it to be<br />

protected from corrosion for up<br />

to 70 years.<br />

In War Against Industrial Corrosion, Clean Lasers Prove Very Effective<br />

Clean technology lasers offer superior industrial corrosion removal in myriad applications, helps solve<br />

some of industry’s most costly corrosion problems<br />

Industries have been fighting a<br />

war against corrosion in metal<br />

infrastructure, equipment, and<br />

products at great expense for<br />

generations. “The global cost<br />

of corrosion is estimated to<br />

be US$2.5 trillion, which is<br />

equivalent to 3.4% of the<br />

global Gross Domestic Product<br />

(GDP) (2013), according to a<br />

NACE International IMPACT<br />

study to examine the current<br />

role of corrosion management<br />

in industry and government<br />

and to establish best practices.<br />

Given the massive industrial<br />

outlay, proactively controlling<br />

corrosion is imperative and<br />

can have an equally impressive<br />

ROI.<br />

“By using available corrosion<br />

control practices, it is estimated<br />

that savings of between 15 and<br />

35% of the cost of corrosion<br />

could be realized, i.e., between<br />

US$375 and $875 billion<br />

annually on a global basis…<br />

The fact that corrosion control<br />

provides a cost benefit is a<br />

lesson learned over and over<br />

again by industry, often too late<br />

and following catastrophic<br />

events,” continues the<br />

NACE International IMPACT<br />

study.<br />

However, traditional methods<br />

of removing corrosion can be<br />

messy, laborious, time consuming,<br />

and can even pose serious<br />

health hazards.<br />

Today, one of the easiest to<br />

use and most effective alternatives<br />

in the war against corrosion<br />

is the increasingly important<br />

category of industrial-grade, clean<br />

technology lasers.<br />

With this approach, precision<br />

laser-based systems are used to<br />

remove corrosion, contaminants,<br />

paint, and residues with a highenergy<br />

laser beam that leaves the<br />

substrate unaffected. Preparation<br />

and cleanup time are minimal,<br />

and the low-maintenance<br />

equipment can last decades.<br />

The technology minimizes<br />

operator exposure to potential<br />

environmental health hazards.<br />

In addition, no consumables are<br />

necessary.<br />

Corrosion and the Limits of<br />

Conventional Control<br />

Any industry with metal<br />

infrastructure, processing<br />

equipment, or products exposed<br />

to water, fluids, moisture, or<br />

atmospheric humidity continually<br />

fights corrosion, which causes the<br />

deterioration and loss of a<br />

material and its critical properties<br />

due to chemical, electrochemical<br />

reactions of the exposed surface<br />

with the surrounding<br />

environment. Corrosion affects<br />

the microstructure, mechanical<br />

properties, and physical<br />

appearance of the materials.<br />

The direct cost of corrosion<br />

includes a loss of materials,<br />

equipment, and production, plus<br />

the cost of repair, maintenance,<br />

and replacement. Additional<br />

losses can result from accidents,<br />

injuries, and even loss of life as<br />

well as payments to repair<br />

environmental damage.<br />

Within the continual struggle<br />

against industrial corrosion, one<br />

important niche area of corrosion<br />

control involves the pretreating of<br />

metal surfaces to remove<br />

corrosion and contaminants<br />

before coating or welding.<br />

Although metal surface<br />

pretreatment is a small portion of<br />

industrial corrosion control, it is<br />

crucial to ensure the safety,<br />

performance, and longevity of<br />

products and structures.<br />

Insufficient coating pretreatment<br />

can lead to inadequate<br />

protection from the environment,<br />

leading to potential coating<br />

failure, moisture entry, and<br />

accelerated corrosion as well as<br />

increased maintenance, early<br />

replacement, and warranty issues.<br />

Similarly, insufficient weld<br />

pretreatment to remove corrosion<br />

and contaminants can lead to<br />

weakened or failed welds and<br />

necessary rework as well as<br />

substantial safety, liability, and<br />

litigation risk.<br />

A More Effective Weapon to<br />

Eliminate Corrosion<br />

In many industries, it is necessary<br />

to remove corrosion, residue, oil,<br />

grease, or paint before coating a<br />

product or infrastructure to<br />

improve coating adhesion.<br />

Toward this end, laser-based<br />

systems have significant advantages<br />

over traditional methods,<br />

starting with ease of use.<br />

“With laser-based systems, an<br />

operator simply points and clicks<br />

a high-energy laser beam at the<br />

surface. The substrate is not<br />

affected by the laser, and the<br />

systems do not create any mess<br />

or byproducts. The approach is<br />

eco-friendly, energy-efficient,<br />

and completes the job in<br />

approximately half the time of<br />

traditional methods when<br />

preparation and cleanup are<br />

considered. Also, no consumables<br />

are required,” says Wayne<br />

Tupuola, CEO, Orlando, Floridabased<br />

Laser Photonics, a leading<br />

provider of patented industrial<br />

grade CleanTech ® lasers for<br />

cleaning and surface conditioning.<br />

The company’s systems<br />

function either as mobile<br />

standalone units or can be<br />

integrated into production lines.<br />

In the case of Laser Photonics,<br />

the laser systems are available in<br />

portable and stationary models<br />

ranging from 50 to 3,000-watts<br />

(a 4,000-watt version is in<br />

development) with chamber sizes<br />

from 3’ x 3’ in size to 6’ x 12’.<br />

The systems can also be installed<br />

in manufacturing lines in cabinets<br />

or operated by a robotic arm.<br />

In industry, the laser pretreatment<br />

of metal surfaces can<br />

be used to streamline various<br />

manufacturing processes. For<br />

instance, it has been used to<br />

remove rust from hundreds of<br />

automotive transmissions per<br />

day. It has also been utilized to<br />

eliminate corrosion from<br />

conveying system components.<br />

The CleanTech lasers are also<br />

used to refurbish industrial<br />

infrastructure, such as when<br />

removing a previous coating<br />

along with any corrosion to<br />

facilitate the new coating’s<br />

adhesion to the surface.<br />

Another common laser<br />

application involves pre-weld<br />

treatment to remove corrosion,<br />

mill scale, residue, and any<br />

impurities on the surface of the<br />

base material that would<br />

compromise the weld’s effectiveness.<br />

It is essential to avoid any<br />

such contamination on a weld’s<br />

surface, which could otherwise<br />

lead to a weakening of the weld’s<br />

mechanical properties, requiring<br />

rework.<br />

Laser treatment is also used for<br />

post-weld cleaning to increase the<br />

life expectancy and corrosion<br />

resistance of a welded joint.<br />

Post-weld cleaning is important<br />

for stainless steel as well. Welding<br />

can cause a “heat tint,” a<br />

discolored, thickened top layer on<br />

the stainless steel around the<br />

weld bead within the heat<br />

affected zone that compromises<br />

corrosion resistance. Removing<br />

the heat tinted top layer is<br />

necessary to restore stainless<br />

steel’s full corrosion resistance<br />

and aesthetic value.<br />

A further benefit of the laser<br />

systems is that some of the most<br />

advanced units are designed to<br />

last for decades. For example,<br />

CleanTech laser systems can last<br />

for 50,000 to 100,000 hours. In<br />

addition, virtually no maintenance<br />

is needed after purchase and no<br />

consumables are required.<br />

Given the devastating cost of<br />

corrosion to industry and the<br />

inherent limitations of typical<br />

control methods, lasers are<br />

becoming a best practice<br />

technique to combat it in facilities<br />

and in the field. Laser treatment<br />

effectively removes corrosion for<br />

many industrial applications,<br />

minimizes cleanup time and<br />

operator exposure to potential<br />

environmental health hazards,<br />

lasts for decades, and requires no<br />

consumables.<br />

PHOENIX County Metals are<br />

specialists in the recovery of Gold,<br />

Silver, Platinum, Palladium &<br />

Rhodium.<br />

Whatever your manufacturing<br />

process, if the waste produced<br />

contains precious metals, it can be<br />

reclaimed, turning your waste into<br />

profit. Our own, fully equipped in<br />

house laboratory, allows us to<br />

analyze your material promptly.<br />

Our key principle is that when<br />

possible, we sample and analyze<br />

prior to processing, agreeing<br />

expectations and charges with you<br />

before recovery begins.<br />

We would be pleased to discuss<br />

the material that you have and<br />

the various recovery options.<br />
