Problem Solving Case Histories
|
|
CH 2118:
Thermal spray coatings used in developing a world class roll technology for stainless steel annealing furnaces.
|
|
CH 2119:
Welded and fused claddings have been developed to reduce wear, chatter, and friction for the shoes and rails in aluminum pusher furnace.
|
|
CH 2101:
All rolling mills use rollers and guides for control of the products moving through the mill. SEA has developed a family of coatings which have greatly prolonged the life of these rolling mill guides for many customers.
|
|
CH 2102:
The SEA "FENCR" process can eliminate the use of lubricated bronze components for a wide variety of bushing , bearing , and liner applications. Treated mechanisms such as roller chain can also be operated grease-free in many instances.
|
|
CH 2103:
In all machinery, something called "boundary layer lubrication" happens when working surfaces collide through a film of lubricant intended to prevent such collisions. SEA has developed lubricants and coatings designed to operate with low friction and wear under these boundary layer conditions.
|
|
CH 2104:
For some applications such as mandrel segments, drive rollers and grippers a slightly textured surface can offer performance advantages. SEA has a metallurgically bonded tungsten carbide cladding which has done very well in providing increased friction where needed.
