General Impregnation Issues

Cost Effectiveness

Due to the high performance and simple operation of the Ultraseal process it is more cost effective to impregnate porous castings rather than scrap them, particularly if the castings are in an expensive machined condition.

Engineers in the automotive industry calculated that if 5 per cent of high volume components regularly fail their initial pressure tests, then the economics of 100 per cent impregnation become attractive. This can enable pressure testing to be limited to either just samples or on final assembly.



Quality assurance

Due to the cost advantages following the introduction of advanced automatic impregnation technology, developed by Ultraseal, major volume users of castings are now able to consider 100 per cent impregnation of their components to meet stringent production demands such as those of 'Just in Time' and 'Zero Defect' programmes.
