PRE-TREATMENTS

Amfin offers a variety of pre-treatments including grit blasting, abrasive blasting and non-metallic blasting. Other pre-treatments incorporate cleaning and degreasing of materials, acid descaling of austenitic stainless steels and nickel based alloys.

ABRASIVE BLASTING

Amfin has a number of abrasive blasting cabinets and one large blasting room, to allow effective surface preparation.

The media types available are both dry and wet aluminium oxide, glass bead and plastic. This gives Amfin flexibility when working with various metallic alloys and composites.

VAPOUR DEGREASING

A reach, compliant, solvent vapour degreasing process, along with a suite of aqueous cleaning options, gives Amfin flexibility in component cleaning. Amfin can work with customers to find the best cleaning and degreasing solutions for a wide range of materials and contaminants.

CHEMICAL PROCESSING

Amfin’s state-of-the-art automated chemical processing facility ensures that Amfin can provide highly reliable and repeatable processing, whilst guaranteeing component traceability, environmental performance and occupational health standards. Our process tank sizes give us flexibility to treat small one-off batches to large batch serial production.
