• Structural bonding: Plasma replaces solvent and keying processes

    Schmitz Cargobull, Europe's leading semitrailer manufacturer, gave up using organic solvents prior to the structural bonding of sandwich panels several years ago. Instead, the company pretreats over 16,000 new refrigerated semitrailers a year with Openair®-Plasma. WERKSTOFFE (No. 5/2017) reports in detail on this large-scale application.

  • ‘We love lightweight construction’ – Interview with CEO Christian Buske

    Whether for the pretreatment of electronic mini-contacts for LED lights or for large surfaces in the automotive and aviation industries – atmospheric pressure plasma has enormous potential for growth. Georg Schätzl, chief editor of the German specialist metal magazine BBR and Plasmatreat CEO Christian Buske met to discuss this topic for the BBR „FUTURE Special" (9/2015).

  • Plasma Technology instead of Solvents

    A leading European semitrailer manufacturer is saving at least 20 tons of chemicals a year in the pretreatment of sandwich panels for large refrigerated trailers. Instead of environmentally harmful solvents, the company uses atmospheric pressure plasma to clean and activate the surfaces. A case study in JOT (2014/3), Germany’s top journal for surface technology, presents all the details.

  • Keep cool

    Environmental protection is a key issue to transport companies. Over 15 000 new refrigerated semi-trailers are produced by Europe's largest trailer manufacturer Schmitz Cargobull each year. The eco-friendly truck production involves the use of Openair® plasma. The German plastics magazine PLASTVERARBEITER (10/2010) gives the details.

  • Structural adhesive bonding: Openair® plasma in use at Schmitz Cargobull

    In order to obtain extreme adhesion, particularly good leak-proofing and improved environmental conservation in production at Europe’s leading manufacturer of lorry trailers, gigantic refrigerated container structures were pretreated with atmospheric-pressure plasma prior to adhesive bonding. In its four-page title story the 9/2008 issue of ADHÄSION reports on the background events.
