Mechanical Zinc Coating

It is essentially a cold welding concept that applies the coating using mechanical energy at room temperature without giving any lasting hydrogen embrittlement.

Mechanical zinc coating.

Mechanical galvanization is the same process but applies to coatings that are thicker than 0 001 in 0 025 mm. Mechanical plating also known as peen plating mechanical deposition or impact plating is a plating process that imparts the coating by cold welding fine metal particles to a workpiece. Mechanical zinc process uses kinetic impact energy of impact media along with special chemicals and zinc alloy powder to create an adherent uniform highly corrosion. The coating upon micro cross section appears to consist of flattened particles of zinc loosely bonded together.

Cip is certified to work with coating for zinc deposited mechanically onto iron and steel basis metals. Galvanization or galvanizing also spelled galvanisation or galvanising is the process of applying a protective zinc coating to steel or iron to prevent rusting the most common method is hot dip galvanizing in which the parts are submerged in a bath of molten hot zinc. Mechanical zinc process uses kinetic impact energy of impact media along with special chemicals and zinc alloy powder to create an adherent uniform highly corrosion. Almac coatings are combinations of aluminium and zinc which give substantially increased corrosion resistance compared with zinc.

Mechanical zinc is an excellent coating method that imparts a superb metal surface finish on ferrous metal components for providing long term corrosion protection. The hot dip coating has over 30 more zinc per unit volume than the mechanical coating. The components to be coated are placed into a tumbling barrel containing. The hot dip coating has over 30 more zinc per unit volume than the mechanical coating.

It is commonly used to overcome hydrogen embrittlement problems. The coating density is approximately 0 45 oz ft 2 mil compared to the hot dip galvanized coating density of about 0 6 oz ft 2 mil. Mechanical plating can be used to apply zinc tin or aluminium coatings either singly or in combination. Inverplex is a mixed coating of zinc and tin that has better conductivity and corrosion resistance than zinc.

The coating has a density of about 0 45 oz ft 2 mil compared to the hot dip galvanized coating density of about 0 6 oz ft 2 mil. Mechanical galvanizing and plating specifications thicknesses. They are more ductile than zinc and are very advantageous when used in contact with aluminium. At chem plate industries we offer a wide range of mechanical plating processes including standard zinc plating and galvanizing silver plating zinc aluminum coatings tin coatings and our cp 2000 process which is a quad metal coating with salt spray in excess of 2500 hours.
