AAC Anodizing Essentials Class

Anodizing Essentials is part of the Aluminum Anodizers Council's (AAC) "School for Anodizers" that teaches more than the fundamentals of anodizing. This one-day class is designed to increase the knowledge and ability of anyone involved in operating an anodizing line. Anodizing Essentials Class details the foundation of quality anodizing, taking the learner through the entire process - beginning with the metallurgical properties of aluminum alloys commonly anodized through to the final rinse and sealing processes.

The program is designed to benefit anodizing production personnel at every level-from the line operator to the production manager, particularly if they are new to the business. Workshop topics include:

• Anodizing Overview and Anodizing Video
• Metallurgy Basics for Aluminum Surfaces
• Racking
• Cleaning & Rinsing
• Etch, Desmut & Bright Dipping
• Anodizing Basics for Aluminum Surfaces
• Power - Rectifiers & Transformers for the Aluminum Surface Treatment Industry
