Tribotec supplies anti corrosion protection solutions to Sandvik SRPFrom Svedala in Skåne, machines and spare parts are sent to destinations all over the world. Sandvik is now carrying out an anti corrosion initiative that is saving costs, hours of labour and the environment. Sandvik SRP AB (Sandvik Rock Processing) is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of stone crushers. About 500 people are employed at Sandvik’s facility in Svedala, Skåne, from where machines and spare parts are sent to destinations all over the world. But metal components that are transported or stored are often exposed to corrosion. And what rusts, costs – in many ways. Sandvik SRP is therefore carrying out an initiative that is unique in Swedish industry, saving costs, hours of labour and the environment. |

New anti corrosion protection saves timeThe ’readiness’ time’ was shortened substantially when EMBA Machinery AB changed from traditional anti corrosion protection to Tribotec’s VCI technology! With transports all around the world, good anti corrosion protection is decisive for guaranteeing deliveries. Previously, EMBA used traditional methods. All the units and parts had to be coated in ”fat and grease”, before shipping in containers or being transported by lorry. When the equipment arrived, everything had to be washed off again; time-consuming work with harmful solvents. Only once this had been done could work start on assembly and installation. |
