Sealing cap

top of the acid etching reservoir is equipped with a sealing cap made of reinforced PPU material, preventing the release of gas. The sealing cap is fixed to the water reservoir, placed on the upper edge of the reservoir body to form a reliable seal.

Vortex

using a special spray nozzle mounted in the upper part of the working reservoir to form therein a vortex acid solution. Steel wire is completely immersed in the vortex acidic solution, effectively destroying the border of the reacted acid. Continuous acid can significantly accelerate the etching process, reduce etching time and the depth of immersion. Each stage of vortex etching operates independently, controlling the concentration and temperature of the acid solution in accordance with the process requirements.

Control system

highly intelligent control system exposes concentration and temperature of the vortex acid etching solution automatically. Due to the metering pump computer performs periodic replenishment in accordance with the parameter adjusted by technological personnel.

Method of wire cuttingMethod of wire cutting is carried out at the direct-axis working sides of the etching reservoir, its implementation does not cause difficulties.
Centrifugal pumpcorrosion-resistant, submersible, such pumps are low-maintenance does not require frequent replacement of expensive mechanical sealings, the need for which always occurs working with horizontal pumps.
Steel wire wiping and liquid removing device

One set is installed between each stage of acid etching, which allows to remove the residual liquid from the wire during the manufacturing process. At the output, and between the water reservoir and the acid etching reservoir a device for wiping and removing gas and liquid is used to reduce the amount of residual liquid on a removable wire, which reduces the amount of wastewater.

Design of the reservoir for chemical acid etching without formation of vapors:
  • 4 corrosion resistant submersible pumps;
  • 1 heating device;
  • 3 devices for wiping and removing gas and liquid;
  • 1 metering pump.
  • Acid etching reservoir and the working reservoir are made of PPU plate according to the German formula with improved parameters of liquid bodies, that’s why the system performs highly efficient acid etching in several stages with the least duration.
  • Fully sealed space for acid etching, equipped with dual water curtain and a linear zone for wire passage, provides easy operation, lower maintenance requirements and long-term operation, etc.
  • The corresponding concentration increases gradually from the beginning to the end of the process, and at the output of the concentration acid can be spent at a rate of 6%, which reduces its consumption and the cost of spent acid disposal.
  • At the inlet and outlet of the acid etching reservoir water curtain is used for sealing. Special sealed tray with water is mounted at the top of the inlet and outlet of the acid etching reservoir and laterally from each side of the tray a single pump is established, resulting in water curtain that seals acid vapor at the inlet and outlet of the acid etching reservoir.
