The Spanish anodizing facility utilizes a 20V 3000A IGBT air-cooled rectifier system with dual 1500A modules operating in parallel configuration. This modular design allows continuous production maintenance – if any module fails, technicians can swiftly replace the malfunctioning unit through hot-swappable operation without interrupting ongoing electrochemical processes, ensuring 24/7 operational reliability.
Technical Specifications & Process Requirements
Standard Anodizing: Typically requires 18V-24V output voltage range with scalable current capacities (4000A/6000A/12KA) to accommodate varied tank sizes and throughput demands.
Hard Anodizing: Demands elevated voltage parameters (80V-100V range) to achieve greater oxide layer thickness (25-150μm) for enhanced wear/corrosion resistance in aerospace and automotive components.
System Advantages
• IGBT Topology: Ensures ±1% current stability critical for uniform oxide layer formation
• Forced Air Cooling: Maintains optimal operating temperature under 45°C at full load
• N+1 Redundancy: Expandable parallel modules support up to 12KA current output
