SPECIFIC ANTI-CORROSION SOLUTIONS FOR STEEL AND WIRE DRAWING INDUSTRIES
VCI Brazil has been operating with anti-corrosion solutions for the steel market since 1994, when it built the first electric machine to work with steel coil packaging. This development led to closer ties with the industry and the loyalty of the first client since that time.
For steel coil and wire roll packaging operations, using packaging as anti-corrosion solutions, VCI Brazil created its most successful machines: the MEC DAGI and the SRW, respectively.
Fully automated, with increasingly modern safety schemes, they apply active protective packaging made from VCI Raffia and VCI Paper, with variations that consider mechanical support, resistance to tear propagation, and corrosion protection.
The active protective packaging prevents any onset of oxidation and safeguards against impact damage that could compromise the client’s assets. The Stretch FM8 is recommended to provide greater sealing/airtightness for the goods.
In maintenance within steel mills and wire drawing plants, VCI Brazil offers anti-corrosion solutions to minimize equipment performance failures. Notable is MVOil 753, water-emulsifiable, for heavy-duty manual cleaning; a degreaser that replaces kerosene, diesel oil, and gasoline and acts very quickly in eliminating grease and oils.
MVAqua 250, for the preservation of pressure tubes, pumps, heat exchangers, valves, etc., without internal coatings for up to 90 days indoors. MVOil 800 provides protection for metal surfaces for up to 6 months outdoors.
Among other anti-corrosion solutions in maintenance is the MVDispenser, which modifies the atmosphere by saturating the medium to protect the load, and Woodactive, which treats wood to receive the load, leaving a protective layer on the surface of the box.
DRAWING AND ROLLING USING ANTI-CORROSION SOLUTIONS
VCI Brazil’s anti-corrosion solutions to minimize the harsh conditions of wire drawing plants and add value to their products are presented in its V-active protective fluids, specifically for this segment. We highlight MVAqua 243LDW and MVAqua 580LDW, which provide high-quality finishing to wires, have bactericidal and fungicidal action, eliminating the degradation of the aqueous wire drawing bath, thereby minimizing costs associated with bath replacement and replenishment.
