At this year’s ELECTRIC POWER Expo (April 14-17), SIFCO ASC – the world leading supplier of selective plating technology and solutions – will be profiling the SIFCO Process® and raising awareness of the portability of selective plating for surface enhancement within the power industry.

ELECTRIC POWER Expo, hosted at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, Colorado, is the premier conference and exhibition supporting power generation in North America and across the globe. SIFCO ASC will be on stand to talk with delegates about the SIFCO Process® and discuss how it can be used to apply adherent, high quality deposits onto localized areas. The process requires minimal disassembly and minimal masking, helping to reduce downtime and minimize repair times.

The SIFCO ASC team will also be showcasing its Silver Non-Cyanide solution. The solution provides a superior quality deposit that can be applied in the shop or anywhere in the field without the hazards associated with traditional cyanide silvers.

Mark Meyer, North America Sales Manager at SIFCO ASC, said: “There are numerous challenges facing power generation and product facilities as they relate to operation and maintenance of generators and turbines. Issues of wear, corrosion, fretting and conductivity must all be addressed, and while there are various methods available for repair, selective plating is often overlooked.

“This show is one of the highlights of the year for us and we look forward to discussing with delegates how the use of selective plating and the SIFCO Process® can reduce downtime and improve efficiencies.”
