The fourth issue of ALIT Academy Magazine features a very interesting article on how to optimize the costs of chemical paint stripping processes, an overview of our new spray system for metal passivation – Drizzling – and a few interesting articles that showcase life within the company.
ALIT has always stood out for its dynamism and flexibility thanks to a careful and constant study of the market and its needs. Our mission is to always absorb the market’s requests, make them ours and then offer the best solutions.
This is the case of Drizzling, our new application process for the chrome-free passivation of metal products. Drizzling has been developed by listening to the market’s needs. This cutting-edge technology allows to apply a pollutant-free passivating solution to the manufactured items, ensuring an easy and steady chrome-free performance.
In addition to Drizzling, in this issue of the magazine we will also discuss a very important current topic: energy saving.
The increase in energy costs, as well as the continuous increase in chemical raw materials and waste disposal costs, have pushed us to tackle and develop alternative methods to use paint strippers compared to what is considered a standard.
We will showcase the advantages of combining the use of chemicals at lower temperatures, with stirring systems as well as with spray and ultrasound systems. Suitable products with different technologies will allow companies to achieve excellent results minimizing, at the same time, the operating costs.
Finally, in the pages of the magazine you will find as always, a few accounts of the everyday life within our company. As our employees are as special as much as their families, we thought of letting our children experience a day at the company. During the preparations for the Aluminium 2022 trade fair in Düsseldorf, we enlisted the help of the children to build a Lego version of our Fastrip machines, which we then showcased at our booth to show visitors how the systems are made. This experience was wonderful and there was a lovely synergy between parents and children during the workday. We will certainly repeat this experience in 2023.
We wish you a good reading and, most importantly, a Happy New Year!

ALIT Technologies is pleased to announce Drizzling, an innovative process for the application of chrome-free passivation products for all metals.
ALIT Technologies, a leading manufacturer of machines and products for the surface treatment of metals, is pleased to announce the launch of the dosing and application system Drizzling.
The treatment of metal surfaces ensures good durability over time and provides protection against oxidation and corrosion. There are various surface treatment processes aimed at this purpose. One of the most significant and widespread is certainly coating, which is only the last (but not least) step of a chemical process that includes several intermediate stages in which parts are degreased, pickled and passivated. It is in this last phase that the Drizzling system can make a difference.
Drizzling consists of a complete dosing system capable of automatically managing the mixing of demineralized water, coming from a feed tank, with the exact quantity of passivating chemical product, thus obtaining an optimal and always fresh solution to be dispensed directly on the surface of metals. The use of special atomizing nozzles and compressed air enables the system to homogeneously produce and distribute a fine and light mist of passivating solution that completely envelops the product, even in 7-meter vertical lines for aluminium profiles.
This system is extremely compact and easy to install, and its main advantage is that it allows to apply a constantly fresh and contamination-free passivating solution to the products: a further reassurance for the customer, who can count on an improved performance of the passivating product.
Furthermore, the new dosing system developed by ALIT Technologies can be combined with chrome-free chemicals, including titanium and polymer-based ALFICOAT 748/3 from Alufinish GmbH, which guarantees excellent results in the passivation process both in terms of corrosion protection and paint adhesion.
The ALIT Technologies team previewed Drizzling at Aluminium, the leading trade show for the aluminium industry and its main fields of application, which took place from 27th to 29th September 2022 in Düsseldorf, Germany.
The third issue of ALIT Academy Magazine features the products and technologies that will be presented at Aluminium 2022.
Despite this very difficult period due to raw material costs, war in Ukraine and political instability in several countries, the industrial market is still responding very well so far. Generally, pandemic restrictions seem to show a downward trend from last year, letting us hope they will not affect the market for next fall/winter. Next fall, we will be also actors at the ALUMINIUM trade fair, which will be held from 27 to 29 September 2022 in Düsseldorf, Germany.
After several years of forced stop, we can finally come back to be exhibitors at this important fair, a long-awaited event and mostly, a milestone for the entire chain of the aluminium market. For this reason, this issue of ALIT Magazine wishes to be mainly addressed to ALUMINIUM fair.
The original installation for chemical stripping of hooks and frames, FASTRIP ISP, born in 2014, has been totally renewed and enriched with several features adopted during these years of developments and experience in the market. We were pioneers in this project, always focused to improve the process, both from a mechanical and chemical point of view and at the same time, improving the filtration system. Today, the FASTRIP ISP stripping tank has reached a high degree of efficiency, it is easier to use and offers high standards of results also thanks to development of new paint strippers such as METALSTRIP 1465.
We have recently developed an additive product to be used along with caustic soda solutions for extrusion dies cleaning. The product differs from other products on the market thanks to its several features: it has been developed to keep the process management as simple as possible; it allows to keep the bath temperatures under control, thus extending the lifetime of the baths by monitoring the dissolution of the aluminium. It is therefore a cost-saving product that enhances the caustic bath lifetime.
In this issue we will show you how paint stripping can help companies to recover paint-defective items on high quality finished products, such as aluminium doors. A real support to companies, especially during periods of significant loads of work.
Finally, ALUMINIUM will be the perfect opportunity to introduce an important ALIT development: Drizzling!
Drizzling is our new application process for chrome-free passivation metal products. It is a spray process that allows solutions to be applied through the atomisation of a fine mist capable of wrapping the item, especially developed for 7-metres vertical lines for aluminium profiles. This system has been developed to reduce water consumption after the passivation stage and, most of all, allows to apply a pollutant-free passivating solution to the manufactured items. This ensures an additional assurance for the customer, who can count on a chrome-free product’s performance always being at its best.
In conclusion, we are once again ready to show you several innovations, as well as applications of our processes and products.
We look forward to seeing you in Düsseldorf, if only to offer you a good glass of wine!

The time in which we are living is characterized by a fast-moving industrial market. The cost of raw materials is constantly increasing, and their availability is limited. And yet, companies do not brake: they accept, even if with some complaints, the increases, but at the same time, they start looking for alternative solutions in order to reduce costs.
For months we have been living this situation and for as many months, ALIT has been trying to adapt its procedures to keep up with the market, listening to the requests of its customers and partners and then offering concrete solutions.
This issue of ALIT Academy Magazine will be particularly rich, because we will present what we have recently developed to optimize the filtration of paint stripping baths and thus allow tangible economic savings to companies that use our products.
We will also be presenting FLUORIDITE, a new chemical product developed entirely by our laboratory team, which is essential for all companies operating in the aluminium coating sector that are experiencing problems with the fluorides limit in wastewaters.
Finally, we will be presenting a new entry to the ALIT range, ready to change the way in which we strip and recover items with coating defects: FASTRIP S, a spray machine capable of working at high temperatures (130°C) quickly and of adapting to the growth of the company thanks to its modular concept.
All these innovations fully demonstrate our expertise in the sector and, above all, enable us to welcome you to the PaintExpo 2022 trade fair in Karlsruhe (Germany) in April. It will be an opportunity to see many of you again, meet new customers and provide you with all the information you need.
