PROCESS AND PLANTS

Fondinox S.p.A. has the availability of a moulds warehouse that satisfies all dimensional needs. Moulds for horizontal and vertical centrifugal castings allow us to obtain products with dimensions near to finished products, minimizing cast weight and machining allowances.

After being selected, the  mould is placed on  a rotating centrifugal machine, preheated and covered with a refractory coating, ready for the pouring process.

Centricast shop is equipped with four horizontal machines and four vertical machines to cover a wide production range. Molten metal is directly poured into the spinning metallic mould, where the very fast solidification process begins, guaranteed by the high thermal conductivity of the mould and by the water cooling. Once the solidification is completed, pieces are pulled off from the mould and ready for the structural treatment.

Steel mill is equipped with 10 medium frequency induction furnaces, with single capacities from 300 to 3500 kgs. The availability of so many furnaces allows us to work with the highest flexibility and to manage in the best way the wide variety of alloys that we produce.

Heat treatment represents one of the most critical phases of the production process for special alloys. So Fondinox is equipped with 3 treatment furnaces that satisfy Norsok requirements up to 1250°C, with working zones up to 2.2×2.6×4.8m and pools up to 250m3 equipped with turbulent water recirculation units for rapid cooling of castings. Maximum working temperature of all our furnaces if 1430°C.

Solution annealing, water quenching, normalization, annealing, tempering and aging are performed on our steels and nickel alloys according to international specifications and following our internal procedures build up during our long experienced history.

Our technological internal laboratory is equipped to perform all tests according to international specifications: spectrometic chemical analysismechanical tests (tensile test, impact test, hardness, microhardness), corrosion test (intercrystalline, pitting, crevice, SSCC, SCC, HISC, accelerated corrosion),  metallographic analysis with optical microscopy and SEM. We are also equipped with Fischer FeriteScope and Thermo Scientific Niton XRF Analyzer for PMI.
VT performed on the entire production by our trained and highly skilled operatorsPT carried out in a dedicated area with controlled environmental parameters.

Subcontracted European leader RT shop working under exclusive agreement equipped with 7 bunkers and 3 linear accelerators from 3, 6 and 9 MeV capable to test steel pieces with thicknesses up to 400mm. RT shop is located very near to our premises, leading us to operate with the maximum flexibility and rapidity on RT tests performed on our products.
