The 3 day Fatigue 2024 conference will build on the long established philosophy of the Engineering Integrity Society to provide a forum for practising engineers and researchers to exchange ideas and experiences in all aspects of structural integrity. As well as giving practitioners an opportunity to keep up-to-date in the latest developments in durability of

Aluminium Anodising creates an aluminium oxide film on the surface of an aluminium substrate. The resulting film is electrically non-conductive, protects against corrosion and is resistant to wear. Aluminium anodising is used widely in aerospace, automotive, defence, and medical applications. -Chromic Acid Anodising -Sulphuric Acid Anodising -Tartaric Acid Anodising (TSA) -Hard Anodising -AnoTef-HATM

The extreme hardness of Hard Chrome Plating (over 1000 HV) is produced by the structure of the deposit. Furthermore the deposit has a very low coefficient of friction. These two properties together with the ability to apply very high thicknesses make Chrome Plating the perfect coating for wear resistance. (A general thickness of 0.13mm (0.005”)

Throughout the group we can offer wet paint coatings, pre- treatment, dry film lube and varnish. Paint has now received approval to proceed with Airbus on structural paint Each site has fully qualified operators with many years of experience in all types of painting and related processes who can handle small intricate components as well

Silver is a, white, lustrous metal capable of taking a high polish. Due to its extraordinary technical properties it is used in a wide range of applications. Silver is the metal with the highest electrical conductivity of all metals and is therefore essential for light- and heavy current engineering. In addition, silver is the most

Zinc Nickel Plating The Zinc Nickel process offers a coating that is used in the protection of steel, copper, and brass alloys. Zinc Nickel is widely recognized as an environmentally safe alternative to cadmium and in certain applications, demonstrates equivalent, or better, corrosion properties compared to cadmium. Zinc-Nickel functions as a “sacrificial coating”, corroding before

Cadmium is robust and versatile. Cadmium has a silvery white metallic appearance with excellent corrosion resistance, which functions as a “sacrificial coating,” corroding before the substrate material. Finishes Dull – Giving the Cadmium’s natural state, being a matt deposit. Chromate – Applying a golden yellow film with a high degree of protection against atmospheric corrosion.

Non destructive testing (NDT) is the process of inspecting and testing components for discontinuities, or defects without altering or affecting the part in any way, with this when the inspection or test is completed the part can still be used. Magnetic Particle Inspection: Magnetic Particle Inspection uses a magnetic field to locate surface and near-surface

Electroless nickel plating is an auto-catalytic reaction, unlike electroplating, it is not necessary to pass an electric current through the solution to form a deposit. Full Coverage Free from the need of the current to reach the area to be plated, nickel can be coated everywhere the solution touches the part. This means that it

A new chemical immersion treatment to enhance the surface of additive manufactured parts could revolutionise the aerospace industry. South West Metal Finishing (SWMF) has been working on its Almbrite™ process for the last three years and believes it could be the future choice of aircraft manufacturers around the world. Some of SWMF’s tier one aerospace
