Whether for engine blocks, hydraulic systems, or precision enclosures, we deliver high-quality sealing solutions that meet the highest industry standards.
Steps of Vacuum Impregnation:
Step-1: At first, a vacuum is created inside the impregnation chamber where the metal part is placed for impregnation. The vacuum clears the air out of the leak path.
Step-2:Then, a sealant covers the whole part, and pressure is applied so that the sealant can fill the porosities.
Step-3:After that, the casting part enters a rinse/wash station. Here the residual sealant is extracted from the pockets, internal passages, or taps of the part because here the sealant is undesirable.
Step-4:Finally, the die casting product goes into a cure station where the impregnated sealant in the path of the leak is polymerized.
Vacuum Impregnation Process:
Vacuum impregnation is a sealing process used to eliminate porosity in materials like aluminum castings by filling internal voids with a specialized sealant. The process involves placing the part in a vacuum chamber to remove trapped air, introducing a liquid resin that penetrates the pores, and then curing the resin to create a permanent seal. This method prevents fluid and gas leaks, improves mechanical strength, and enhances the reliability of components without altering their dimensions or surface finish. Widely used in automotive, aerospace, electronics, and industrial applications, vacuum impregnation ensures high-performance, leak-proof parts.
Vacuum Impregnation Equipments:
Vacuum impregnation equipment consists of a vacuum chamber, resin tank, rinsing and curing systems, and a control unit to automate the process. The vacuum chamber removes trapped air from porous materials, allowing the sealant to fully penetrate voids. A resin tank supplies the sealing material, which is introduced under controlled pressure. After impregnation, excess resin is drained, and the part is rinsed to remove surface residue. The curing system—using heat, UV light, or chemical activation—solidifies the resin for a permanent seal.
Vacuum Pressure Impregnation:
Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (VPI) is an advanced sealing process used to eliminate porosity in materials like aluminum castings, electrical components, and composites by combining vacuum and pressure. The process begins by placing the part in a vacuum chamber to remove trapped air from internal voids. Next, a specialized sealant is introduced, and positive pressure is applied to force the resin deep into the pores, ensuring complete penetration. After impregnation, excess resin is drained, and the part undergoes curing through heat or chemical activation for a permanent seal. VPI enhances leak resistance, mechanical strength, and overall durability, making it ideal for automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications.
