Automated chemical cleaning
Turbex ’ s bespoke chemical cleaning lines are designed for the aerospace industry to clean aircraft engine components , before non-destructive testing ( NDT ) inspections .
What is chemical cleaning
When preparing for non-destructive testing ( NDT ), component cleaning is essential for many industrial processes . The coating phases that follow NDT have exceptionally high cleanliness levels , since molecular layers of oil can prevent adhesion of the coating . Chemical cleaning removes contaminants such as carbon , scale , paint , coatings , oils and grease to aid this process .
How does chemical cleaning work ?
During chemical cleaning , you can use several different processes . These include aqueous , alkaline & ultrasonic cleaning , degreasing , alkaline rust removal & acidic descaling , paint & coating stripping and drying . By immersing components into alkaline or acid solutions , or a combination of both the chemistry will effectively remove the contamination , taking the metal back to its natural condition . Turbex ’ s chemical cleaning lines are fully automated to optimise the process as much as possible .
When to use chemical cleaning ?
Turbex ’ s chemical cleaning lines are used heavily in the aerospace industry , primarily for maintenance , repair and overhaul ( MRO ) of military and civil aircraft engines down to auxiliary power units ( APU ). You can also use them in the defence sector .
