Surface treatment of wires, bars & tubes
Utilizing either a hydrochloric or sulfuric acid solution, oxides are readily removed. The totally enclosed system features a monorail or overpassing design, including coil drying.
The line is fully automated for maximum throughput with a process step tracking system and process monitoring to insure repeatability.
The chemical management system allows the process to adapt to each coil based on weight, material composition, surface area and treatment steps.
Long product pickling lines from Fives feature state-of-the-art technology and autonomous control for the most effective surface treatment of wires, bars and tubes. Using either an HCl (hydrochloric acid) or H2SO4 (sulfuric acid) solution to remove oxides from long products, these totally enclosed systems feature a monorail or overpassing design and coil drying. They are fully automated for maximum throughput, with a process step tracking system and process repeatability.
The chemical management system allows the process to adapt to each coil based on weight, material composition, surface area and treatment steps. It is the best design for the environment and offers the maximum protection for the operator.
