Washing metal components for automotive


In an industry dedicated to cold sheet metal working, such as Prodotti EBI, there are many stages to which each metal component must be subjected before it can be placed on the market. After the passage through the presses, the shaping phase and the eventual welding, one of the moments that cannot absolutely be missing in the production of metal components is washing.

Eliminate debris to increase the metal components’s performance

The washing, in addition to improving the aesthetic appeal of the metal components, greatly increases the performance of the system in which they are inserted and facilitates operations during the assembly phase. The various operations to which the metal components are subjected before being washed leave residues of oil, grease and dust on them; these residues not only make the metal parts unattractive, but also decrease the friction between the components and thus increase the difficulties during assembly. The decision to wash metal components is therefore mainly based on mechanical requirements because the pieces, after proper cleaning, are more performing and they are ready to be inserted into more complex products.

The importance of metal washing in the automotive industry

Compliance with quality and safety standards is becoming increasingly important in the automotive sector, particularly when it comes to concluding important business agreements. In this sense, it’s essential to provide automotive partners with components that have a percentage of contaminants and processing’s residues almost zero. For this reason, also in Prodotti EBI, there are technicians dedicated to the metal washing process who, using a rotary washing system with closed circuit with wash basin, rinsing tank and protection tank, make sure to eliminate all particles deposited on the surface of the material that are not proper to the material itself.

The quality and operational reliability of metal components in the automotive sector are essential factors that ensure safety and performance of the vehicles in which they are inserted; for this reason, through the washing of the pieces, we guarantee the customer clean and performing components, thus increasing the value of the piece produced.
