Process agents

In surface technology, process agents play a decisive role in carrying out various processes for treating the surfaces of workpieces or components. These agents include a variety of tools, devices, machines and chemicals that are used for cleaning, preparing, coating or finishing surfaces.

The process agents include, for example, mechanical tools such as grinding machines, polishing machines and deburring tools, which are used to process and refine surfaces. Chemical substances such as cleaning solutions, degreasers, etching agents and coatings are also used as processing agents to clean, degrease, etch or coat surfaces.

In addition, process equipment also includes specialized equipment such as spray guns, dip baths, drying ovens and vacuum chambers, which are used in the application of coatings or finishes. This equipment enables precise control of the process parameters and ensures uniform and high-quality surface treatment.

The selection of suitable process media depends on various factors, including the type of workpiece, the desired surface finish, the surface treatment requirements and the specific requirements of the respective application area. Overall, process agents play a key role in the implementation of surface treatment processes in surface technology and contribute significantly to achieving the desired surface quality and functionality.
