Casting Impregnation with Godfrey & Wing's HVLV

Anoplate utilizes Godfrey & Wing’s innovative High Value Low Volume (HVLV) vacuum impregnation technology to replace the traditional batch flow approach.

Single-piece flow equipment enables Anoplate to conserve resources (floor space, sealant, and electricity) while achieving nearly 100% sealing performance. The savings in cycle time alone is upwards of 80%. This technology is time- and energy-efficient, and it provides our customers with the security of knowing their pressure retention requirements will be met throughout the life of the component.
