PITEC Deutschland GmbH is a recognised player in its technology field. Kronos Engineering, as an independent special-processes expert, brings a neutral perspective on these solutions — audit, benchmarking, multi-technology integration. With no commercial bias toward any brand, we steer you to the technology that genuinely fits your use case.
Kronos Engineering does not distribute PITEC Deutschland GmbH equipment. Our expertise lies in special processes and their qualification — this neutrality is our guarantee of technical objectivity: we recommend what is genuinely best for your part, your standard, your production volume.
Context and positioning
PITEC Deutschland GmbH develops PIT (Pneumatic Impact Treatment) technology, a pneumatic alternative to ultrasonic systems for HFMI. PIT tools are particularly valued for their robustness on site — steelwork, civil infrastructure, repair.
Kronos Engineering brings day-to-day PIT process expertise on steel structure sites, in operation and audit. Our neutral stance allows an independent benchmark between PIT, UIT and HiFIT depending on the part and the customer's standard.
Typical operations
Treatment of welds on heavy structures, DIN EN 1090 / IIW 2016 compliance. Mobile site or workshop.
Weld build-up + HFMI to delay crack re-initiation. Full documentation delivered to the principal.
Comparative test on customer coupon, footprint measurement, metallurgical analysis — decision support for technology selection.
PIT process deployment outside the manufacturer's service zone — North Africa, Middle East, Latin America.
