Chemical and electrolytic phosphating lines for steel wire

Sirio Wire boasts more than 20 years of expertise in the design and production of chemical and electrolytic phosphating lines for steel wire.

Phosphating is another essential part of the wire drawing process, since a well-done phosphate coating ensures optimal performances in multi-stage operations and long-lasting protection from corrosion. Sirio Wire electrolytic phosphating innovations combine the accelerating effect of an electrical current with phosphating chemicals, thus offering remarkable advantages.

The benefits obtained by using Sirio Wire technologies are several:

- Firstly, the company’s solutions avoid sludge formation, thanks to the electric current applied to the wire during the coating operation. This process prevents the development of acid etching and phosphate sludge containing iron residues.

- Secondly, the wire surface is much smoother than the one treated with conventional phosphating processes, and the friction values are therefore significantly reduced.

- Last but not least, in the electrolytic process the application of the coating lasts just 2 to 5 seconds, compared to the traditional process which is at least 3 times slower.
