Aluminium Anodizing - Qualanod

Anodizing — oxide layer thickness

Anodizing (anodic oxidation) forms a protective oxide layer whose thickness depends on customer requirements and the intended use of the profile. The plant capacity is 200 tonnes of 200 tona Aluminiumprofilen monthly and it is planned not only to meet the requirements of its own production but also to provide services to external customers.

Mechanical preparation

Mechanical preparation performed by brushing of the profile, whereby a uniform appearance of a significant surface of the profile is obtained.

2 Chemical preparationsa

Chemical preparations by which degreasing and etching of the aluminum surface is performed to apply a quality layer of aluminum oxide at a later stage. By adding a sanitizing agent to the surface, at the end of this phase a fine silky surface of aluminum is obtained.

Control of these factors

The fact that the control of these parameters is left not only to the human factor, but also to the computer programming and monitoring is of significance. The software constantly monitors and manages the anodizing process, uniformity of the density of the current, solution concentration, temperature, as well as the thickness of the anodic layer.

Anodizing is checked every day: final products are tested in our own laboratory according to QUALANOD standards, under the guidance of a team of technologists with years of experience — a guarantee of the quality of the delivered product.
