Titanium Fiber: A High-Tech Challenge in Industrial Cleaning

— 04 / 07 / 2025 Titanium fiber is one of the most complex raw materials to process within high-tech industrial production cycles. Used in extremely demanding sectors such as medical, aerospace, and precision mechanics, it requires highly specialized cleaning processes to ensure its purity, strength, and reliability in final applications.
In this context, a leading company specialized in the production, processing, and transformation of steel wires and cables has chosen Firbimatic to implement a dedicated plant for cleaning titanium fiber, meeting extremely strict technical requirements.

The Challenges of Titanium Fiber Cleaning
Cleaning titanium fiber presents several critical issues, including:

The removal of oily residues from mechanical processing, such as lubricants and cutting oils;
The presence of metallic particles and abrasives adhering to the material’s surface;
The risk of cross-contamination from other metals, especially in facilities with shared systems;
Sensitivity to oxidation, which requires drying cycles completely free of residual moisture.

Addressing these challenges requires a system capable not only of deep cleaning but also of preserving the metallurgical properties of titanium, without introducing any alterations or contaminants.

The SFK50 V System: A Tailored Solution
To meet these needs, Firbimatic supplied the SFK50 V system, designed to ensure maximum efficiency in processing high-performance technical materials. Key features of the system include:

Top loading system, to facilitate operations and reduce the risk of manual contamination;
High-speed centrifuge, providing effective mechanical action for contaminant removal;
Dual vacuum drying cycle, essential to prevent oxide formation on the titanium surface;
Ultrasonic technology, capable of reaching even the micro-cavities of the fiber for thorough cleaning;
Dual distillation unit and oversized solvent tank, ensuring extended operational autonomy and process stability.

This configuration has enabled the customer to achieve a level of cleanliness that complies with the highest standards required in their sector, while minimizing the risk of corrosion and optimizing operational efficiency.
