Contract treatment

We rapidly and reliably carry out the treatment processes black oxidation, phosphating and stainless steel colouring in our computer-controlled fully automated contract treatment plants. A manually-charged treatment plant is also available for special processes such as the colouring of brass, copper and zinc die-cast components. Profit from our knowledge and experience as a system provider who produces its own chemicals and plants for chemical surface treatments. 

Black oxidation

Black oxidation

The black oxidation coating is chemically generated by immersing workpieces in a boiling, strongly alkaline solution.

More information
Phosphating

Phosphating

Generated by immersing the workpieces into a heated and acidic zinc, manganese, zinc-calcium or tri-cation phosphate solution.

Other colouring methods

Other colouring methods

Classic black oxidation agents, as used elsewhere, cannot be used to colour stainless steel materials.

Test methods

Bath analysis – Coating thickness measurement through magnetic-inductive method, scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive microanalysis, test methods according to standard specifications. 

  • Bath analysis
  • Coating thickness measurement through magnetic-inductive method
  • Scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive microanalysis
  • Test methods based on standard specifications

Annealing furnace

Workpieces that have been coated using an acid process and which have a tensile strength of over 1000 N/mm² should be annealed because of the possibility of hydrogen embrittlement. 

Surface treatment plants

We can rapidly and reliably carry out the treatment processes black oxidation (ferrous steel and casts), phosphating (zinc and manganese phosphating) and stainless-steel colouring in our computer-controlled fully automated contract treatment plants. 

A manually-charged treatment plant is also available for special processes such as the colouring of brass, copper and zinc die-cast components. 

You can profit from our knowledge and experience as a manufacturer of chemicals and plants for chemical surface treatments with regards to surface results.
