Working together with a leading German university in the field of engine development, Plasmatreat has developed a process that significantly increases the heat dissipation from the interior hard coating in the cylinder barrel to the air-cooled engine block.
Micro-cleaning and surface augmentation with Openair® Plasma significantly improves the bonding of the coating, combined with reliable heat transfer. This simultaneously extends engine life and increases the potential for improved engine performance. The hard coating is then applied in a plasma spraying process.
Determining surface tension with dyne inks now
Plasmatreat constantly faces shifting demands as a result of new ideas, regulations, and standards. Customers are increasingly approaching the company with unique and innovative project requests. Consequently, the capacities of the technology and research center will now be expanded to include a class-6 cleanroom.
Plasmatreat supports digitized manufacturing with its Plasma Control Unit (PCU) and makes numerous controls, regulation, and monitoring functions available to ensure consistently high surface-treatment quality and reproducibility.
VOCs occur when solvents and solvent-containing products are used, and they are harmful to the environment. Nevertheless, manufacturing in many industries still involves pre-treating surfaces with primers, bonding agents or other chemicals that release VOCs. With its Openair-Plasma process, Plasmatreat offers an environmentally friendly alternative.
