Enercon has adopted various interactive technologies that will allow customers to connect with company experts through video conferencing, collaborative discussions, video demonstrations, and technical presentations.
Bonding in automotive, aerospace, and other assembly operations can be improved through effective surface pretreatment technologies such as carbonic cleaning.
Cleaning and surface pretreatment are directly related in many industries. Traditional pretreatment methods such as alcohol wiping or air nozzles are used to clean off contaminants and prepare surfaces for adhesion.
Most polymers have a low surface energy, which results in difficulties when further processing (e.g., coating, printing, or gluing) and requires the use of surface treatment to increase the surface energy.
PPG recently announced that the U.S. Air Force has qualified PPG Aerocron™ aerospace electrocoat (e-coat) primer to provide corrosion resistance and enhanced topcoat adhesion for aircraft parts.
Visitors to the company’s stand will reportedly have the opportunity to explore five electrode assemblies featuring variations of high-powered ceramic and stainless steel electrodes.
Enercon Industries recently announced that it will showcase hands-on displays that cover its range of corona, plasma, and flame surface treating technologies at K 2019.
Henkel recently announced new REACh-compliant Bonderite products for etch passivation and corrosion protection that are reportedly chromium-free, allow the toxicity labeling to be removed, and reduce the user’s carbon footprint thanks to fewer active steps.
Brian Croke will oversee new product development and the continuous improvement of existing products across all induction cap sealing and surface treating lines for Enercon.
