HERMETIK High-Pressure Pump Technology: Overview of Industries and Applications

Whether for surface finishing of metallic products, cleaning applications or road construction, HERMETIK systems offer a wide range of application possibilities.
Thanks to powerful high-pressure pumps and state-of-the-art nozzle heads, our systems are predestined for numerous industries and areas of application:

Steel production

With HERMETIK high-pressure pumps and scale washers, oxides can be completely removed from all steel goods. Our systems are available as turnkey systems for all rolling mills, reliably descaling profile and flat steel, slabs, billets, bars, pipes and round forgings and are also effective in cleaning casting molds and dies.

Copper production

High-pressure pump technology and rotating nozzle heads from Hermetik guarantee the flawless production of copper profile wire. Oxide inclusions are completely and environmentally friendly removed from the copper strand using high-pressure water before rolling, then filtered out of the water and recycled.

Aluminum production

Even the most resistant aluminum oxides can be completely milled off using a HERMETIK system with our high-pressure pump technology combined with rotating nozzle heads. The aluminum particles are easily filtered out of the water after descaling.

Surface technology

Tailor-made HERMETIK systems made from the right combination of high-pressure pumps and nozzle heads remove residues from metal products in a wide range of applications without the use of chemicals. Paints, varnishes and other coatings can be removed without leaving any residue and without damaging the material using a high-pressure water jet.

That is why HERMETIK’s high-pressure pump technology is the ideal descaling solution

Hydromechanical descaling solutions for hot-rolled steel, stainless steel, aluminum and copper products are Hermetik’s core business. As a system supplier for water hydraulic systems, we know that our high-pressure pump technology is the heart of every system and must therefore work reliably at all times. We are specialists in hydromechanical descaling in steel forming and have been one of the market leaders in the field for decades. We make optimal use of these decades of experience in the field of water hydraulics and descaling when developing state-of-the-art high-pressure pumps and turnkey, industry-specific descaling systems.

High-pressure pump technology and more from HERMETIK – quality made in Germany

In the hydromechanical descaling process, impurities, especially oxides, are removed from the surface of hot-rolled metal workpieces using water applied by high-pressure pumps – what remains is a flawless surface. Descaling with water is much more effective, economical and environmentally friendly than other mechanical or chemical processes.

Our scale washers not only improve the surface quality of your products, but also achieve significant energy savings compared to operation with inefficient centrifugal pumps thanks to the use of the latest plunger pumps.

The particularly high water pressure of the HERMETIK high-pressure pump technology means that the amount of water used and thus also the cooling of the rolled material during steel forming can be reduced, which means further energy savings.
