KCH Engineered Systems will display its Smart Tank Cover system, designed for energy savings and increased worker protection against airborne fugitive emissions.

For nearly 40 years, the company has been building industrial ventilation systems for surface finishing, including scrubbers and mist eliminators that meet stringent standards for air emissions. It also builds specialized process lines designed to operate at lower cost than traditional lines, taking an integrated-system approach that incorporates ventilation systems, wastewater treatment and line production equipment.

  • Methods and Formulas to Determine Internal Deposit Stress in Applied Metallic Coatings

    Internal stress exists in electroplated and chemically applied metallic coatings. This paper reviews the test procedures for measuring deposit stress and the formulas used to calculate stress values. Many formulas used require modification to obtain actual internal stress values. Errors in this regard are examined and common mistakes are explained.

  • Electroless Nickel-plated Steel versus Stainless Steel: Case Studies

    This paper highlights two case studies of manufacturers that have replaced, or done studies to replace, stainless steel with electroless nickel-plated mild steel. In both cases, cost savings could be realized while maintaining or improving product quality.

  • A Process for Alkaline Non-cyanide Silver Plating for Direct Plating on Copper, Copper Alloys and Nickel Without a Silver Strike Bath

    Traditionally, silver is electroplated in toxic, cyanide-based chemistry.  Due to cyanide’s extreme hazard to human health and environments, developing non-cyanide silver chemistry is essential for the silver electroplating industry.  Discussed here is an aqueous, alkaline non-cyanide silver plating technology, which can be directly plated over nickel as well as copper and its alloys.  The silver deposits have perfect white color and better anti-tarnishing properties than other non-cyanide silver processes.  The silver is plated entirely from the dissolving silver anode and the bath is very stable, and maintains a stable pH level both during plating and idle time.  This new non-cyanide silver technology will plate bright silver that is perfectly suitable for electronic, industrial and decorative applications.    .
