At Talleres ECI, we continue to incorporate advanced technologies that optimize our manufacturing and industrial assembly processes. One of the most innovative is the stress relief treatment by vibration, a technique that stabilizes metallic structures without the need for heat.

What is stress relief by vibration?

During welding, machining, or metal forming processes, internal stresses are generated that can cause deformations, cracks, or dimensional variations over time.
Traditionally, these stresses were removed by thermal treatments in furnaces, which involved high energy consumption and size limitations.

The vibration treatment, however, uses controlled mechanical energy to redistribute residual stresses within the material. Through a vibration unit attached to the structure, specific frequencies are applied to induce microscopic molecular movements, balancing the structure without altering its mechanical properties.

Advantages of vibration treatment over thermal methods

  • No deformation or metallurgical changes

  • Up to 95% energy savings

  • Significant reduction in processing time

  • Can be applied on-site, without dismantling the structure

  • Suitable for carbon steels, stainless steels, and special alloys

This method allows the treatment of large structures directly at our facilities or at the client’s site, ensuring dimensional stability and structural reliability.

Industrial applications

The stress relief by vibration process is especially effective in industries where precision and stability are essential:

  • Heavy and industrial boilermaking

  • Metal and support structures

  • Pressure vessels and welded tanks

  • Large machined components

  • Frames, chassis, and structural supports

In all these cases, the process enhances component performance and extends service life.

Commitment to quality and innovation

At Talleres ECI, we combine engineering, experience, and technology to deliver safe, efficient, and sustainable industrial solutions.
The stress relief treatment by vibration reflects our commitment to precision, continuous improvement, and reduced energy impact across all our projects.
