The HVC Process
Extend the life of your parts
Computer-controlled preparation
Before HVC coating is applied, each piece is carefully inspected to insure structural integrity. Old coatings and surface imperfections are ground away, using computer-controlled precision lathes. Special abrasive belts were developed in partnership with 3-M Corporation for this process.
We use an electronic surface analyzer to determine the best grit texture to prepare the surface and the component is then grit-blasted to achieve the optimum surface for coating.
Cutting-edge technology with application-specific formulas
During the coating process, the component rotates inside the HVC cabinet while the Hybrid Jet System™ applies powdered coating material through high-temperature gasses at supersonic speed.
HVC’s chemical formulas can be customized to each component’s application and the number of coats applied varies with each piece. The result is a dramatic improvement in component performance and wear life.
Final finishing is done on special computer-controlled, diamond-belted lathes.
