Impregnating Plants
Maldaner® Impregnating Plants
Development, design and production of impregnation systems from small manually operated units to fully automated lines.
Over 50 years of experience in impregnation technology enable the best engineering in our impregnation systems.
If you have large quantities of leaking castings, purchasing an impregnation system could be the most cost effective option.
At our German production site, we manufacture complete systems for metal impregnation. In addition to semi or fully automated standard systems, we offer custom-built equipment to suite individual needs.
The experience from our job-shops is included in new equipment.

Fully automated systems
A transfer system delivers the charge baskets to the treatment stations where they are processed.
To recover excess impregnation sealant or wash water the charge baskets are rotated after each process step.
After removal from the polymerisation bath, the parts flash dry due to their residual heat. Formation of corrosion by moisture is thus prevented. A vacuum dryer can be added optionally.
Special Equipment
We deliver any desired special device for the impregnation systems. Our designers develop the solution that corresponds to customer’s demand; it is then optimised by impregnation tests in one of our job-shops with the customer’s own castings.
To rationalise the impregnation process, we have developed a number of additional devices:
We recommend rotating baskets for complicated parts with bores, threads and blind holes. The closed basket can be rotated around its central axis when hanging from the crane. Excess impregnation sealant is recovered by various drain processes. The parts exit the wash and hot cure processes perfectly clean.
Special fixtures suitable for holding large, machined castings like gear housings or motor blocks are used. Such parts are firmly clamped to prevent any damage. Using these frames helps to enhance sealant recovery.
Washing devices help to improve washing and draining of complicated parts.
Vacuum dryers after hot cure provide completely dry work pieces and thus help to prevent corrosion by residual moisture.
