Additional machinery and equipment for the typical Surface Treatment Plant project delivered together with our partners
Mechanical Cleaning Equipment
Surface treatment plants can include several booths for blasting or other mechanical cleanings of the components prior to the chemical process.
Fluorescent penetrant inspection (FPI)
Fluorescent penetrant inspection is suitable for detecting surface defects and can be used for almost all types of commonly used materials (steel, Al, Ni, Cu, Ti alloys, glass, ceramics, plastics). Its main applications are in the automotive, aerospace, petrochemical and energy industries.
Paint Booths
John Cockerill surface treatment plants are usually highly automated, but they often include paint booths for manual painting as part of the process or as a backup system.
Material Handling
Material handling in the John Cockerill surface treatment plant can be fully automated or partially automated. Moving the parts inside the process is typically fully automated, but goods receiving and dispatching are done with forklifts or AGVs.
Ovens and Dryers
The surface treatment process typically includes several ovens or dryers. Owens and dryers must be skillfully integrated into the process plant to keep them energy-efficient and safe.
Fresh Air Handling Units
A customized fresh air handling unit is an excellent solution for regulating and circulating fresh air as it ensures a constant flow of fresh air and a well-conditioned environment.
Process Ventilation
Effective process ventilation creates a safe working environment, protects plant structures from acidic fumes, and saves energy.
Fresh and Wastewater Treatment
John Cockerill offers several methods to produce fresh process water or to clean wastewater from the process. Plants are typically based on either neutralization or evaporation of water.
Magnetic particle inspection (MPI)
The magnetic particle inspection is the most widely used non-destructive material testing method. John Cockerill offers equipment for testing steel components typically in the automotive and aviation industries, as well as in energy and transport. Surface and subsurface defects such as cracks, cracks, pores, and inclusions of ferromagnetic materials are detected by MPI.
