ALIT attends the ECOLINE forum in Poland, 4 to 6 Sept
September 3. ALIT is among the partners of ECOLINE in the organization of a forum that is dedicated to the latest technological innovations in the metal surface treatments and finishing. This event will be held from the September 4th to the September 6th at the HOTEL ARLAMOW (Ustrzyki Dolne) in southern Poland. More information can be found at this link.
The forum, divided into thematic sessions, will also witness Loris Rossi, the founder and CEO of the Italian brand, among the panelists with a speech about the latest news in the field of chemical stripping of metals.
SUMMER CLOSURE 12 to 23 AUGUST
August 1, 2019.ALIT Technologies closes for the summer period from 12 to 23 August inclusive. If your summer holidays take you to Italy, perhaps to visit cities of art like our beautiful Verona, don’t miss the events of the Arena’s opera season. Here is the reference website to book an unforgettable evening.
ALIT Technologies is attending Expo-Surface from the 26th to the 28th of March 2019
Feb 28, 2019. ALIT Technologies will attend the Expo-Surface exhibition, which is currently at its tenth-edition and going to be held at Kielce, Poland, from 26 to 28 March. ALIT Technologies will attend the event with its local partner CHEMIFOR SP. Z O.O. (HALL G – STAND G87).
The ALIT booth will, in addition to the company paint stripping products, give a special focus on the Fastrip ISP line stripping systems, the innovative Fastrip S, a vertical spray machine for the paint stripping, the practical T2 ultrasonic paint removal tank and the T5, which combines the mechanical effect with the chemical one (Please take a look at the technical brochures translated into English and Polish on the company’s SlideShare account).
The Fastrip technologies by ALIT have been proven to be one of the most innovative range of technologies for effective chemical paint stripping of metals and, therefore, will certainly be able to catch the interest of the delegates from the most varied industrial sectors expected at the fair.
Expo Surface is dedicated particularly to the manufacturers and distributors of new products and processes for the treatment of metal surfaces and anti-corrosion technologies and attracts representatives from the automotive, aviation, naval and aerospace industries, construction, finishing and coating, mechanical and petrochemical industries.
ALIT Technologies @ MIDEST 5 to 8 March Lyon
27 Feb 2019. ALIT Technologies will be attending the MIDEST Exhibition – Eurexpo – 05th to 08th March 2019 – Lyon – Stand ITA – Italian Trade Agency (F140), Hall 5. MIDEST is the world’s largest show exclusively dedicated to industrial subcontracting and face to face meetings.
From Verona to Thailand to optimize the paint stripping processes
14 Jan 2019. Months after the launch of a new Fastrip ISP plant in an aluminium profile extrusion and painting company in Thailand, Alit has returned to check the entire process in accordance with its usual customer assistance program. In addition to the paint stripping plant for the hooks used in the painting process, the Thai company had chosen to install the Fastrip FP as well – the Alit filter press that allows easy recovery of paint particles from chemical baths and facilitates their longevity. And what are the results? A thoroughly satisfied customer, extremely clean hooks and, above all, exceptional filter-pressed mud. What are the advantages of well-pressed waste? Take a look at the latest tech Q & A by Alit to find out.
Q&A How can paint removal baths be made to last for a long time?
14 Jan 2019. The chemical formulations used for paint stripping, result from the skills that every company in the sector guards passionately. The formulations also have a considerably high incidence in the general costs of paint stripping processes. Nevertheless, the baths can last for years, and, if the right precautions are taken, they can last for nearly five years before requiring reintegration or replacement.
How should they be treated? Using an effective filtering system is paramount, and this is what Alit Technologies recommends when it invites its industrial partners to equip itself with its Fastrip FP press filter in addition to the Fastrip ISP system for in-line stripping. It eases the perfect ‘maintenance’ of chemical baths, keeping them clean from paint residues. It also allows the pressing and squeezing of the wasted paint, reducing it to a dry compound that is easy to handle and removing the precious paint stripping solution from it.
The waste, as seen in the image captured recently at a Thai customer’s industrial premises, becomes solidified and manageable and not dirty, with the cost of its disposal lower than it would be for its liquid version. The experience of the Thai customer, who is currently using the Alit formulation METALSTRIP 1460 + METALSTRIP AKTIVATOR 1660 is an excellent example that confirms the possibility of obtaining less waste to be disposed of and chemical baths in a good condition indefinitely.
Season’s Greetings
12 Dec 2018. Our offices will be closed from Monday 24 to Friday 4 January 2019. Best wishes for a Happy Holiday Season and a Wonderful New Year.
Q&A Why do well-stripped hooks ease an optimal painting?
12 Nov 2018. The hooks or frames used to transport items to be painted in industrial lines should be stripped off well before being reused, for the simple reason that the presence of paint particles that have not been removed properly during cleaning, decrease the electrostatic effect. In this regard, read the comments of one of our clients, Mr Andreas Marcou, who is Muskita’s plant manager at page 50 of IPCM’s October issue where he is pointing out the importance of electrostatic conductivity.
In electrostatic painting, the paint powder sticks to the product due to the electrostatic effect, but the possible presence of paint from a previous process generates a repulsive barrier between successive layers.
Therefore, by cleaning the support hook well, the number of items that are painted badly and must be reworked is reduced drastically. This also allows a reduction in paint consumption.
For this reason, Alit recommends its Fastrip ISP technology In-line paint Stripping Process, a system of heated tanks containing chemical paint-stripping solutions that are placed between the writing probe and the loading probe of the painting process. During their passage, the hooks or frames to be cleaned are immersed in the tank and, within a few minutes, in relation to the paint used and the working temperature, come out at the end of the process perfectly cleaned. They are then ready for optimal reuse and are able to promote maximum electrostatic conductivity in the subsequent processes.
