The Problem: Casting Porosity
Porosity in ferrous and non-ferrous castings causes rejects that increase your manufacturing costs and reduce productivity. Defective parts are usually scrapped, or returned to the foundry to be remelted, recast and remachined. In some cases, repairs are attempted using expensive spot repair techniques.

The Solution: IMTECH Impregnation Job-Shop Service
IMTECH job-shops offer a cost-effective, time-saving solution - IMPCO Process® impregnation. We fill porous openings to provide a permanent, pressure-tight seal allowing previously rejected parts to be put back into production.

Automated Equipment for Precise Process Control
IMTECH impregnation facilities, operated by skilled technicians, feature the most advanced equipment available to solve your specific porosity-associated problems. Large, deep autoclaves and specialized impregnation techniques allow IMTECH job-shops to impregnate virtually any size part, from the smallest to parts weighing several tons.

Specially Formulated IMPCO Materials
IMTECH job-shops use a variety of specially formulated, proven IMPCO impregnation materials for permanently sealing all types of parts that must function under virtually any condition. IMPCO's versatile line of impregnants has excellent temperature and pressure resistance and will not affect machined surfaces or cause discoloration. IMPCO impregnation materials and processes are approved under military standards for ferrous and non-ferrous parts.

Powdered Metal Impregnation
 Using IMPCO developed resins and techniques, IMTECH job-shops successfully and economically impregnate powdered metal parts for improved finishing operations such as plating and painting, machinability, and pressure tightness.

Impregnation to Government and Industry Standards
IMTECH job-shops, using IMPCO Impregnation Technology�, the IMPCO Process®, and IMPCO Materials impregnate and pressure test parts to approved government and industry standards. Impregnated and pressure tested parts are certified when required.
