The ultimate specification for processing production items will be influenced by one of the following:

(interior)
1.The client already uses a metal finishing process for which he now requires replacement equipment or, alternatively, he wishes to upgrade to a semi or fully automatic system.
2. The client has used an electroplating supply-house to produce satisfactory samples and now needs equipment in which to operate the finishing process. Anopol is prepared to work closely with the supply-house to arrive at the correct plant specification.
3. The client has a requirement for pickling, passivating or electropolishing stainless steel using processes from Anopol. Electropolishing treatments for other metals are also available.
Following final sample acceptance, production batch sizes, cycle times, space allocation and details of services required are considered and incorporated into the specification.

Employing the latest CAD techniques, Anopol is able to design equipment to satisfy a whole range of specifications. Plant layout and foundation drawings, together with details and location of services required (electricity, water, etc.) are produced and submitted to the client for discussion
and approval.

During the design stage, special consideration is given to materials to be used in the construction of the equipment, particuarly with regard to corrosion resistance, life cycle and durability in service.
On completion of the design work, detail drawings are finalised and schedules produced to plan and monitor the progress of the subsequent manufacturing stages. We pride ourselves on the use of quality materials and the high standard of workmanship and technology employed during the manufacturing processes.
On automatic systems we incorporate the latest computer technology allowing computer interface with a simple step sequence programming language. This enables the client to program rapidly several different operating cycles without expensive specialist reprogramming of the software. In addition to dedicated finishing equipment, we also offer plant refurbishing services and supplies of replacement items such as tank heaters, various pumps and jigs in titanium and other metals.

Installation & Commissioning
Small manually operated systems can often be installed by customer's own personnel using the instructions provided by Anopol.
Larger, more complex turnkey plants are best installed by our experienced engineers. These plants are normally constructed in modules to reduce installation times and are fully assembled for a 'dry run' trial prior to delivery to the customer's works. As a general rule, clients are invited to attend the 'dry run' so that any minor modifications or improvements can be incorporated before despatch.
Commissioning follows installation and at this point the customers operatives and engineers are encoraged to become fully familiar with the operation of the equipment and the relevent maintenance procedures. Operating manuals, wiring diagrams and data sheets, when applicable are provided to the client at this stage.
Commissioning of the plant is not the end of the story as far as Anopol are concerned. We have a vested interest in ensuring that you are fully satisfied with the plant we have supplied. All equipment has a one year warranty, subject to normal conditions. We also offer general maintenance contracts, technical services for plant expansion and assistance in work-cycle programming. Additionally, we run short courses on Health and Safety aspects of metal finishing, tailored to the treatments marketed by Anopol.
