CHROMIUM PLATING

THICK HARD CHROME PLATING

Chromium plating is an electrolytic treatment through which we deposit a layer of metallic chromium on the treated surface, giving the component unique technical characteristics:

• Wear resistance
• Smooth surface (Low coefficient of friction)
• Corrosion resistance
• Excellent coating adhesion
• No component deformation (Low-temperature treatment)

CHROMIUM PLATING IN THE BRICK INDUSTRY

Thanks to our thirty years of experience in the field of kilns and the numerous case studies collected and documented over the years, we can only recommend chromium plating as a first-level anti-wear treatment.
Other types of anti-wear treatments, without the addition of chromium plating, cannot guarantee the same advantages and may cause various side effects during production.
Moreover, at Latermec, through chromium plating, we can coat and protect practically all mechanical components in the brick and ceramic industry: screws, blades, shaft covers, grids, coatings, etc.

ADVANCED DEPOSITION

Thanks to our semi-automatic 4.0 system made up of 6 treatment tanks, we are leaders in high-quality chromium plating services.
With an in-process monitoring system, we can guarantee the quality and traceability of each treated component.

COMMITMENT TO SAFETY AND SUSTAINABILITY

The safety of our systems and processes is an absolute priority. Latermec’s chromium plating plant is designed following the highest safety standards, in line with the latest 2021 European Union directives.
We are proud to have joined the European CTACSub2 consortium, ensuring the continuity of our chromium plating services for the future.
