Automation of Hard Surface Coating

Jan. 29, 2022
Rocklin Manufacturing's Rocklinizer Automation requires only three steps to achieve precisely controlled deposits.

The Rocklinizer spark deposition process applies extremely hard and wear-resistant coatings onto steel surfaces to extend machine life, cut downtime, delay capital expenditures, reduce inventory, and optimize grip. Manufacturers can cut costs and save time with the turnkey automation solution Rocklinizer Automation.

 

With only three simple steps, users can achieve precisely controlled deposits ranging from .0001 to .01 in. (0.0025 to 0.25 mm): Measure and position your part to be coated in the large X-Y frame, insert the electrode into the applicator and adjust the power and speed to your desired levels, and input the part dimensions on the integrated touchscreen PC and trigger the coating process.

 

Unlike welding or metal spraying, minimal heat is generated, and the electrode material will not separate or flake off. After Rocklinizing, no heat treatment, grinding or other surface treatment is necessary.
