SIFCO Redesigned and Rebranded the TechnoFlow Heated Flow Systems

Date: 25/08/2022

The redesigned SIFCO’s TechnoFlow provides data logging capabilities and improved safety features.

In order to improve the selective plating process of its customers, SIFCO ASC has rebranded and redesigned its TechnoFlow heated flow system, that conveys data logging capabilities and increased safety.

The TechnoFlow has recently been incorporated into SIFCO ASC’s new all-in-one plating system featuring dripless technology called the Advanced Solution Control System (ASCS).

The major improvement is the pump adapter plate providing better access to the frame mounting screws, allowing to easier remove the large 14 GPM pump. The pump connector plugs have also been updated: the new twist lock system guarantees a safe power connection, as well as easy removal when needed.

The units are also designed to work with SIFCO Process® solutions. In addition, the TechnoFlow 600 can hold over seven litters of solution, while the 1200 unit has a solution capacity of up to 12 litters. Both sizes contain no fuses and have internal circuit breakers as well as 24-volt finger-safe switches that meets UL and CE requirements. Lastly, the TechnoPlate is now equipped with CPVC plumbing lines - providing both sizes a bypass filter – allowing technicians to change the filter mid-operation for large applications.

“As well as making the overall electroplating process more efficient and user friendly, we wanted to improve the safety features for operators, such as lids with an o-ring seal to decrease solution splash. The system is now equipped with a PID temperature controller with auto-tuning functions, resulting in less overshoot of the set temperature and has the ability to log temperatures throughout the operation for post plating review,” has stated Derek Kilgore, the engineering manager of SIFCO ASC.
