weld cleaning equipment quickly,
Operation
The SURFOX machine works by an electrochemical
process to clean and passivate welds on stainless steel.
SURFOX electrolyte solutions are phosphoric acid based,
approved for food industry, which is activated by an electri-
cal current to clean welds. The process takes only a few
seconds without damaging or scratching the surface of the
parts to be cleaned.
Your SURFOX machine can clean:
TIG welds
u
Plasma welds
u
Laser welds
u
Spot welds
u
MIG welds (with Pulse technology)
u
Basics of passivation:
Cleaning of the welds not only for aesthetic purposes
u
but most importantly for passivation.
Passivation is the treatment of stainless steel surfaces
u
to remove contaminants and promote the formation of
a thick and durable protective chromium oxyde layer.
This passive layer will insure the corrosion resistance of
u
stainless steel.
If passivation is not done properly, stainless steel and
u
heat affected zones may start to rust.
