Cylinder reChroming
Extend cylinder life
DuraShield Chroming Technology
Rechroming will extend the life of a screen cylinder by protecting it from wear and corrosion. AFT uses a controlled chrome application process called DuraShield™ technology to ensure a uniform chrome deposit of proper thickness.
DuraShield has earned recognition as the #1 chroming technology for extending wear life of screen cylinders – on average 20% longer than the competition.
Optimizing a rechroming schedule requires a study of cylinder wear in a specific application and setting up a schedule that avoids costly losses in capacity and fiber. AFT assists mill maintenance in developing the right schedule to reduce overall downtime and these losses.
