VCI Technology To Preserve Mining Industry Assets From Rust - powered by Nano-VpCI®

 

Clean, Protect and Preserve Cycle

clean protect preserve


Cortec’s Clean, Protect, Preserve Cycle for the Off-Road and Mining industries begins with the quality and safety check of parts. To achieve the very highest standards in corrosion protection, these parts and its performance are analyzed, and the question of quality is addressed by Cortec® at every stage. Repeated checks are made and tests are applied to ensure that every product meets the strictest standards on quality. Parts are evaluated for corrosion based on the length of its storage, damage caused, the cost, sensitivity of the part, and the packaging path is determined. The parts are then cleaned; If necessary, existing corrosion is removed. The product is dipped, sprayed, or brushed if required (without being given time to dry), and then neutralized with Cortec’s environmentally friendly products. Once primary protection is reached through cleaning the parts; packaging, coating, or both can be utilized to further the corrosion protection process. This can be done through Cortec’s packaging, coatings, bags, emitters, MRO sprays, or Milcorr for crate replacement. The length of storage and speed should be assessed to determine the best path to provide 1 to 5+ year solutions. Finally the product is preserved, thus reducing labor costs and increasing efficiency. The Clean, Protect, Preserve Cycle helps to keep quality, safe parts in great working condition.

Machinery Maintenance

The different types of Off-Road Equipment and Mining Machinery including Dozers, Front Loaders, Excavators, Knuckleboom Loaders, Mulchers, Forestry Bunchers and others experience different challanges - everything from impact and abrasion to immersion and exposure to chemicals and weather. Cortec’s full line of degreasers, depainters, and rust/oxide removers can eliminate more costly and dimension changing processes like sand blasting, bead blasting, and acid dipping. By incorporating VpCI® products you can integrate this cleaning directly into your existing manufacturing processes.

Surface Preparation Products For Mining Industry

Cleaning Products

While most cleaning compounds available on the market today are simple blends of surfactants and detergents which limit their cleaning effectiveness, VpCI® Cleaners offers improved cleaning plus multi-metal corrosion protection action in one step, resulting in significant savings. VpCI® Cleaners have the unique ability to remove such deposits as heavy hydrocarbons, grease, drawing and buffing compounds, and machinery compounds.

Mothballing Processes

rust prevention mothball

When asset preservation is required for periodic, seasonal lay-up, or longer term mothballing for asset; VpCI® packaging solutions provides a lowcost, easy-to-apply solution that will preserve assets for periods of several months to over 15 years. In cases where equipment or systems require layup, temporary shutdown, or longterm mothballing; Cortec® products can be applied quickly with little or no surface preparation (depending on the product). Cortec’s VpCI®/ MCI® technology provides corrosion protection to external and internal metal surfaces and parts. The degree of protection needed is based on the severity of the environment and the length of exposure to corrosive elements. The protected system will be ready for immediate use when needed.
