Metalock Brasil provided their services for a company specialized in compressor maintenance in Salvador, Bahia.
Metalock Brasil’s specialist technician first carried out Non-Destructive-Testing, using dye penetrant, to assess and map the extent of the damage. Two cracks were found in the labyrinth region of the compressor housing.
Repairs were effected using the exclusive Metalock® Cold Stitching process. In one of the cracks it was necessary to crop out a section, fabricate and fit a new piece, following which it was secured with the Metalock® cold process, using Metalock keys and Metalace studs. The second crack was repaired with the Metalock cold process without the need of replacing a section.
The repaired regions underwent manual finishing by grinding. The compressor was then pressure tested to the entire satisfaction of the client, who later contacted Metalock Brasil, to praise the professionalism of the company and its team.
