TECHNOLOGY
Blasting, metallizing, wet painting, bonding, welding and subsequent operations in one controlled process.

Technologies and processes

Not sure if you need blasting, painting, metallizing or the whole process?

Send us a part, drawing or technical specification. We will help verify whether a separate technology makes sense, or a follow-on process from surface preparation through a protective system to inspection, documentation and shipping.

How to choose a procedure

Start with the problem, not the name of the technology

The customer often does not need to know immediately whether to request blasting, metallizing, wet painting or a combination of several steps. It is important to name what the part is supposed to withstand after modification, what documents will be needed and where the risk may arise.

The surface does not hold or is dirty

It starts with surface preparation

Corrosion, scale, old paint or an inappropriate surface profile can degrade other layers. Typically, blasting and follow-up are addressed before the next step.

Explore abrasive blasting

Lifetime in the environment is decisive

An anti-corrosion system is considered

When the part is to withstand long-term outdoor or heavy duty use, we assess the pre-treatment, metallizing, coating system and measurement of the result.

Explore metallizing

It depends on appearance and repeatability

Wet painting is addressed

Shade, composition of layers, drying, final inspection and stable production process are important for visual parts, series or technical coating systems.

Show painting

The joint shall not be formed by further drilling or welding

Certified bonding may be appropriate

For technical assemblies, surface preparation, cleanliness, application, fixation, curing and a demonstrable process are decisive according to the requirements of the order.

Explore adhesive bonding

The part is part of an assembly

We inspect the welding and follow-up steps

For welded or completed parts, it is necessary to coordinate preparation, production, inspection, surface protection and documentation into one follow-up procedure.

Explore welding

The order is complicated by handling or completion

Downstream manufacturing operations help

Fixtures, hanging, masking, assembly, packaging or shipping often decide whether a job will make it through production safely and repeatably.

Why one controlled process

The costliest mistakes often occur between processes rather than within them.

For demanding industrial parts, it is not enough to choose the right coating, abrasive or joint. It is important that pre-treatment, handling, covering, metallizing, painting, bonding, inspection and dispatch follow each other. The less hand-offs between suppliers, the less room for delays, part damage or unclear liability.

Less forwarding

The order does not need to travel unnecessarily between multiple suppliers just because each can only do one step.

Clearer accountability

When technologies follow each other in one operation, it is easier to keep the procedure, deadline, control and output documentation.

Better continuity of steps

Blasting, metalizing, priming, painting, or assembly is planned per part, not per vendor boundary.

Less risk in the order

For technical contracts, repeatability, traceability, documentation and the ability to document the progress of the process are important.

Surface treatments

From surface preparation to the final protective and appearance system

The surface treatment starts even before the varnish. We assess the condition of the part, the required environment, the standard, the service life, the continuity of operations and the documents that the customer will need during the handover or audit.

Surface preparation

Abrasive blasting

Removal of scales, corrosion or old coatings, unification of the surface and preparation of the part for the next technological step.

  • 3 separate blasting booths to reduce the risk of contamination
  • follow-up to metallizing or wet painting
  • suitable for large parts and repeated industrial orders

Anti-corrosion protection

Metallizing / thermal spraying

Metal protective layer for parts where long-term durability in a harsh environment is important.

  • continuity to blasting and other paint layers
  • suitable for duplex systems and long-term protection
  • solutions according to the environment, standard and required lifetime
Explore metallizing

Final system

Industrial wet painting

Wet painting of large parts, technically demanding orders and repeated B2B series with quality control and documentation.

  • parts up to a length of 14 m
  • 9 paint booths and 4 drying / curing ovens
  • primer after in-house blasting within 8 hours according to process specification

Production operations

When it is not enough to just paint the part. You need to prepare, combine, modify or complete the whole.

For many jobs, finishing is only part of the process. IMAKS can also deal with subsequent operations that help keep the part under control — from fixtures and handling to certified bonding and welding to assembly, final assembly, packaging and shipping.

Industrial adhesive bonding

A controlled bonding process for technically demanding joints, where surface preparation, cleanliness, fixation, curing and documentation are decisive.

Explore adhesive bonding

Welding

Follow-up production operations for projects where qualification, control and follow-up to the next steps of the order are important.

Explore welding

Fixtures and handling

Suspension, positioning, transport in operation and technical solutions for heavy, long or atypical parts.

Explore production operations

Assembly, final assembly and packaging

The part can go through finishing, inspection, shipping protection and shipping without unnecessary transfer between suppliers.

More about job completion

Quality control and documentation

The result must not only be finished, but also documentable.

For demanding industrial contracts, the ability to document the process is often decisive. That is why we deal with layer control, visual result, reports, certifications and documents for internal approval or customer audit.

View certifications and exams

Measurements and records

Inspection according to the requirements of the specific job, system and environment of use.

Laboratory and tests

Support for verification of quality, durability and compliance with the agreed procedure.

Supplier approval

Evidence for internal technical assessment, supplier qualification or audit.

Process traceability

Clear responsibilities, control points and documentation for demanding B2B projects.

How we proceed

You don't have to have a finished technological process. All you need is a part, an assignment or a problem you need to solve.

In the beginning, a drawing, photograph, customer request, standard or description of the environment in which the part will work is often sufficient. Together we will verify which procedure makes sense and what needs to be added for the offer.

01

Submit an assignment or part

Drawing, photo, material, dimensions, number of pieces, required term and customer regulations available.

02

We will verify the appropriate procedure

We will assess pretreatment, handling, technology, continuity of operations, inspection and documentation.

03

We will propose the scope of the contract

It can be a single service or a combination of blasting, metallizing, painting, bonding, welding and other operations.

04

We will ensure the production process

The order goes through agreed steps in a sequence that reduces delays and the risk of errors between operations.

05

We are checking the result

According to the order, visual inspection, measurements, tests, reports or other customer requirements are carried out.

06

We will prepare the handover

We will prepare the part for shipment, complete the agreed documentation and help with the next steps of the project.

When are we a suitable partner

We make the most sense where quality, continuity and certainty of the result are important.

We are not the right choice for every single item or lowest price without technical requirements. We are suitable for companies that need a reliable process, documentation and long-term cooperation.

Large and atypical parts

When handling, part length, secure hanging and process planning are critical.

Repeated B2B series

When you need stable quality, deadline, repeatability and long-term solvable process.

Contracts with standard or audit

When it is necessary to document certifications, measurements, reports or qualifications of the supplier.

Multiple steps in one project

When you need blasting, painting, bonding, welding, assembly or packaging, deal with the follow-up.

Frequently asked questions

What to do when you are not sure about the right technology

Do we need to know in advance if we want painting, metallizing or another process?+

No. Often it is enough to describe the part, the environment of use, the desired lifetime, the standard or the problem you need to solve. We can verify the appropriate procedure together.

When does it make sense to solve multiple operations with IMAKS?+

When the steps follow each other technologically, when it is risky to transport a part between suppliers, or when you need clear responsibility for the result, deadline and documentation.

Can you solve just one service or always the whole process?+

We can do both. Sometimes it makes sense to separately blast, paint or glue. Other times it is safer to design a combination of steps so that the engagement makes technical and business sense.

What to send for the first assessment?+

Ideally a drawing, photograph of the part, material, dimensions, weight, number of pieces, required term, environment of use and any standards or customer regulations. If something is missing, we will fill it in together.
