Discharge losses

Discharge losses due to electrolytes adhering to workpieces, drums or racks can occur in various industrial processes and pose a challenge. These losses occur when electrolyte materials adhere to the surfaces of workpieces, racks or drums and are thus removed from the actual process.

Adhesion of electrolytes to workpieces can occur during electrochemical machining or coating processes. If electrolytes are not completely removed from the workpieces, this not only leads to material losses, but can also affect the quality of the end products.

In relation to racks and drums used to handle and store workpieces, electrolytes can stick to the surfaces during the process. This can lead to a gradual accumulation of electrolyte residues, which in turn impairs the efficiency of the processes and causes additional cleaning requirements.

To minimize discharge losses due to adhering electrolytes, precise cleaning procedures and technologies are required to ensure that workpieces, racks and drums are free of electrolyte residues. This not only helps to reduce material losses, but also ensures the consistency and quality of the goods produced.
