Metal Welding

One of the critical technologies is welding the EN AW-5083H111 aluminum alloy using both TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) and MIG (Metal Inert Gas) methods. These techniques ensure high-strength welds, which are essential for creating reliable hulls capable of withstanding extreme loads and operating conditions. The EN AW-5083H111 alloy is known for its excellent weldability, allowing for the construction of monolithic and durable structures. High-quality welding enhances the hull’s strength and increases its resistance to mechanical damage and corrosion, which is vital for safety at sea.

Advantages of this method:

• High joint strength, ensuring hull reliability;
• The creation of long-lasting structures due to the alloy’s excellent weldability;
• Enhanced safety in extreme operating conditions.

Chromate-free TITANIUM Passivation: ENVIROX System

To improve corrosion resistance, GALAXY uses the ENVIROX passivation system based on titanium. This innovative approach creates a protective layer on aluminum surfaces without the use of chromates, thus minimizing environmental impact. The ENVIROX system provides reliable corrosion protection, significantly extending the lifespan of boat hulls.

The ENVIROX system offers:

• Superior corrosion protection through the formation of a durable conversion layer on the aluminum surface;
• Minimal environmental impact by eliminating the use of chromates and adopting eco-friendly components;
• Improved paint adhesion to the metal, enhanced by titanium-based components that contribute to the formation of a stronger and more resilient coating.

The ENVIROX system is recommended by the International Qualicoat Organization as one of the most effective passivation methods, free from harmful substances, making it ideal for modern marine vessel manufacturing.

Hull Painting

Another important technology is the use of marine-grade polyester powder paint for coating the boat hulls. This powder coating method provides excellent protection and enhances the aesthetic appeal of GALAXY boats.

Key advantages of powder coating:

• Even and extra-durable coverage, ensuring the hull’s protection in harsh conditions;
• UV resistance, preventing color fading and maintaining the boat’s visual appeal;
• Corrosion protection, crucial for vessels in constant contact with water;
• Mechanical resistance to scratches and impacts, helping the hull maintain its integrity over time;
• Eco-friendliness, as no volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are used, making the painting process safe for the environment.

Through these technologies, GALAXY produces high-quality boats that combine reliability, environmental sustainability, and longevity. These boats are designed to withstand the harshest conditions while ensuring maximum safety and comfort for their owners.
