The Complete Spectrum Guide to Top Quality Anodizing Maximizing Efficiency and Energy Savings

摘要

A practical review covering the spectrum of energy savings and efficiency improvements for the Type II and III Hard Anodize Processes will be presented. There are five specific areas when operating together can give anodizing shops from 20-50% savings. The areas include: (1) modifying anodize bath parameters, (2) using a unique pulse ramp procedure to start each tank load and (3) using a new capacitance shunt discharge system to initiate anodizing at a lower voltage. Data logger graphs will be presented from production facilities to verify all data presented including energy savings and quality standards.
