HiFIT - Technische Entwicklung und Anwendung

HiFIT - Technical development and application.

In the past three years the HiFIT technology for application on welded parts has been investigated in the REFRESH project. Many treatment parameters have been tested. Using prototype devices a lot of experience has been gained by treatment of several parts in cooperation with the project partners. The design of the HiFIT device is optimized for industrial application where efficiency, ergonomics and quality assurance are the main topics. An application benchmark of HiFIT and the treatment should be done only by specially trained employees. This restriction is not only HiFIT specific. The trademark HiFIT means a solution for improvement of fatigue strength of new and cyclic pre-damaged welded structures. The solution contains assessment of fatigue strength, treatment devices, training and consulting.
