SIFCO Process Repair & Overhaul

On-Site Plating

Technicians perform selective plating at the customer's location, including on board ships, on large components where downtime is a concern.

Description

For large, critical components where downtime is a concern, SIFCO Process® technicians carry out selective plating at the customer's location to the customer's requirements. Because the process is portable, stationary parts that are difficult to move or disassemble can be plated in-situ.

Key features

  • Portable equipment brought to the part rather than the part to the shop
  • Deposits plated 30 to 60 times faster than tank plating, according to the company
  • Work performed to customer specifications

Applications

  • On-board ship repairs of bearing journals, propeller shafts, bearing seats and turbine casings
  • In-place repair of large stationary equipment in power generation, oil & gas and industry
