RIH is major shareholder of Helios
T
he Helios group with headquarters in Domžale near Ljubljana,
Slovenia, is one of the 15 largest coatings producers in Europe and, since
3 April 2014, has had a new majority shareholder: the Austrian Remho Beteiligungs GmbH, the parent
company of the entire Coating Division of “Ring” International Holding
AG (RIH). With this step, the young
industrial group has succeeded in
acquiring the first company from a
long list of planned privatisations in
Slovenia. After a sales process lasting two-and-a-half years, the closing
of the deal saw 77.93 % of the shares
in the Slovenian coatings giant transferred to the industrial group. The acquisition expands the RIH workforce
to 3,600 staff, who generate sales of
around €530 million. Every year, 24

Bayer expands production for coating raw materials in China
B
ayer MaterialScience is increasing
its production capacities in the
Asia/Pacific region to meet the continued growth in demand there for
raw materials for coatings and adhesives. The ground-breaking ceremony
was held at the site in Shanghai, China, for a new plant for the production
of the precursor hexamethylene diiso-
cyanate (HDI). With an annual capacity
of 50,000 metric tons, it will be the one
of the largest facilities of its kind in the
world. Completion is scheduled for
2016. Bayer already has one HDI plant
in Shanghai, which was expanded in
2013 from its original annual capacity of 30,000 metric tons. There is considerable demand in the region, and
in particular in China, for coatings and
adhesives, which are used in the automotive industry, among others. The
new plant will utilise gas-phase technology, which requires substantially
less energy and solvent than conventional processes. Shanghai is one of
Bayer’s largest production sites worldwide.
Automated carriage coating at the new Siemens surface treatment centre

t the surface treatment centre of
Siemens AG Austria in Simmering/
Vienna, metro transit and passenger
carriages are automatically brought
to the designated booths by a central
transport system. The general contractor for the project is the German plant
engineering company Vollert. One of
the unique features of the new system is that the transfer platform can
move carriages onto and off the track
on both sides, so that the processing
stations can be arranged in parallel on
both sides. For the first time in Europe,
painting robots are used to coat the
carriages with waterborne coatings.

LIQUID COATING
Improving Processes for Greater Efficiency
Atomising Paint Effectively using
Nitrogen
The positive results of atomising paint with nitrogen have already been demonstrated, as the process
has been used in a range of different volume production applications. Major savings can be made in
particular by adjusting the process parameters to meet individual requirements.
A
tomising paint with nitrogen is
now a well-established process for
applying liquid coatings. The next step
is to take the procedure further, with
one example being the NitroSpray pro-
cess developed by Oltrogge. This essentially involves atomising the paint with
nitrogen using a combination of ionisation and heat, in contrast to the normal compressed air process. Nitrogen

process to reduce the

enables the paint to be atomised more
finely, which helps to ensure that the
spray pattern is more even and to reduce overspray. The technology can be
used with all paint atomising processes and for all types of liquid coatings.
The second major advantage over compressed air atomisation is the absolute
purity of nitrogen. It contains no impurities of any kind which could damage the paint, such as oil from the compressor or particles sucked in from the
compressor or the pipes.
Benefits of heating and ionising
The atomising gas is warmed in a heated pipe and this has a positive influence
on the viscosity of the paint and on the
atomising process. The temperature
can be continuously adjusted. The integrated ionisation system enables the
atomising gas to be positively or negatively charged to any level. This means
that the electrostatic charge of the paint
particles can be adjusted to match the
electrostatic charge of the components
being painted.
The most significant savings and
the best results are always achieved
when users are involved in the development of the process and monitor the results closely, from the initial
test through to the subsequent trial
phase. All the relevant existing painting parameters are evaluated and documented, in order to allow changes
resulting from the nitrogen tests to
be identified.
If users have specific requirements
for resolving problems such as orange
peel, runs, thick edges or blistering, the
test set-up can be designed accordingly.
Productivity is the objective
The use of
nitrogen in
combination
with ionisation
and heating
allows more
paint to be
applied (left

Installation diagram showing the machine and the application system.
In contrast, if there is a need to shorten the application time or the drying
time in order to achieve greater application efficiency or to reduce the number of coats, a different test set-up will
be required. In a number of different
projects it has been possible to reduce
the number of coats, for example, from
three to two or from two to one.
This allows for very interesting improvements in efficiency. The additional advantages lie in the reduction in
material and waste disposal costs resulting from the higher levels of application efficiency and also involve productivity and quality benefits. Contact:

LIQUID COATING
New Cleaning Device
Cleaning Spray Guns Quickly and Easily
A new and highly compact device has been developed to clean paint spray guns efficiently and carefully.
The device takes its supply of cleaning agent directly from the original barrel which dispenses with the
need to transfer the agent to smaller containers.
D
isposable cup systems for mixing and applying paint have significantly simplified the workf lows
in paint shops. Special cleaning systems for spray guns, such as the Sata clean RCS and Sata clean RCS compact, have been developed to save even
more time.
The clean RCS is recommended for mounting in the spray booth
to avoid unnecessary activity during
colour changes. In contrast, the clean
RCS compact is intended for use inside
the mixing room or outside the spray
booth, as it can be connected directly
to large containers of cleaning agent.
The same is true of the new clean
RCS micro, the latest addition to Sata’s
range of cleaning devices, which has a
highly compact design.
Cleaning in 20 seconds
The new device allows the cleaning
agent to be taken directly from the original container. The use of conventional large barrels significantly increases
the time between changeovers, when
compared with the standard cleaning device (clean RCS), because the
agent does not need to be transferred
to smaller containers. The paint channel and the air nozzle can be cleaned
within only 20 seconds leaving absolutely no residues.
This short amount of time is even
sufficient for critical colour changes,
for example from black to white. This
is due to the special, non-damaging
cleaning process used, which is known
as cavitation cleaning and is a feature of
all of the cleaning devices in the man-
The new device allows spray guns to be cleaned using cleaning products taken directly from
the original container.
10
ufacturer’s range. It enables good results to be achieved even with standard
cleaning agents. No costly special products are needed. In addition, the cleaning system is highly cost-effective, because it is easy to use and almost maintenance-free.
Simple and safe to operate
Users find it easy to position the spray
gun in the device. The flexible cleaning nozzle and spring-mounted cleaning brush clean the air nozzle and the
gun effectively without causing any
damage.
Before the cleaning process, the
gun is connected to a compressed air
supply so that cleaning agent cannot
penetrate into the air ducts. This ensures that no deposits build up and a
blow drying device prevents corrosion
from forming on the body of the gun.
A suction pipe available as an accessory extracts vapours from the cleaning
system before they can reach the working area.
The cleaning system is fitted with
a quick connector for the spray guns
that are being cleaned, a spray protection device and a practical storage area
for cups on top of the system. It is suitable for use with all types of spray guns
which have gravity feed cups. Contact:

LIQUID COATING
New Anti-Corrosion Topcoat
Perfect Tightening Control
A new topcoat prevents assembly problems on cataphoretic coated surfaces and exhibits
good results for screw connections on aluminum or into aluminum threads.
he growing use of light alloy parts,
the increase of tightening speed and
the high preloads require more and
more efficient topcoats.
For many years now, one of the
most important requirements of the
German automobile industry is the
topcoat Plus VL, applied on the basecoat Geomet 321 which combines excellent anticorrosion performances
and perfect tightening control at a very
competitive price.
Long before the implementation
of the European directive concerning the recycling of end-of-life vehicles (2000/53/CE), NOF Metal Coatings Group, only supplier of zinc flake
anti-corrosion coatings whose chemical compounds are in an aqueous
phase and contain only a few Volatile
Organic Compounds (VOC), offered
completely chromium-free (chrome VI
and III) solutions under the trademark
Geomet.
Approved by Volkswagen
since 2004
At the same time, topcoats also were
developed with improved anticorrosion performances and close control of
friction coefficients. However, the increased use of cataphoretic coated steel
showed new problems when tightening
such as stick-slip. Volkswagen transformed this into new testing procedures that detect potential problems
better in real assembly situations:
— pre-tightening at 200 rpm and final
tightening at 20 rpm
consecutive
tightening
—
loosening
at
150°C
—
new internal standard VW 01131 was
published and some tightening criteria
included in the VDA235-203 standard.
Geomet 321 + PLUS VL became
the most widely used zinc flake system
in Germany and Europe thanks to a
network of highly qualified applicators
united by the unique quality system of
the NOF Metal Coatings Group.
Materials evolution and precise
tightening conditions
Today an important number of assemblies are made with increased rotation
speeds but also with a torque-angle sequence procedure. Certain bolt geometries, in combination with volume produced e-coat surfaces, may present a
higher tendency for stick-slip occurance.
Most importantly, however, the obligation to decrease vehicle weights led
to an increased use of light materials
such as aluminum either for the bearing surface of the screw but also for the
thread tapped into large parts where
the threaded length is larger than 2.5
times the thread diameter of the screw.

T
Fasteners coated with the new coating
system
If in automated production processes the preload varies or sometimes is even out of tolerance, this may
become critical for security relevant
assemblies such as chassis and suspension parts.
To provide more precise requirements Volkswagen has included in the
last version of the standard 01131-1/2:
— 5 consecutive tightening onto
e-coat surfaces
— an assembly onto aluminum with
a torque exceeding the yield point.
The new coating
system provides
a uniform
preload force
in the case of
consecutive
tightening into
aluminium
As a result, Plus VL was tested and
approved by Volkswagen in 2004 after
industrial trials on different types of
fasteners (flange, washer). In 2006, the
12
— a list of reference parts (bolts, nuts,
aluminum and e-coat plates) from
a sole supplier
Other car manufacturers have emphasized their own internal test procedures to make sure the friction behavior fulfi lls the complex requirements of
real assembly situations.
Plus VLh: the standard for
consecutive tightening
NOF Metal Coatings Group decided
to improve the Plus VL, which already
showed excellent results, by taking into account these new requirements.
The Plus VLh solves the problems mentioned on assembled, cataphoretically
pre-coated surfaces but above all provides exceptional tightening results
on and into aluminum and even aluminum critical assemblies.
Th is topcoat is applied under the
same technical conditions, temperatures etc. as its predecessor. The coat
uses the same IMDS number, as the
optimization of the properties was
achieved by a very subtle evolution of
Plus VL. All product characteristics
such as nominal friction value, corrosion resistance or the influence on
dimensional tolerances remain unchanged and as a consequence, the
new topcoat Plus VLh can easily be
used as a complete replacement of the
existing solutions.
Industrial line trials at Volkswagen and Daimler proved the general
usability of Plus VLh and also its capability to solve the most critical tightening circumstances. The torque values remained in the specified range
and the torque-angle sequence procedure showed a significantly lower variation and better repeatability of the final load.
Since the end of 2013, Plus VLh
is used according to the Volkswagen (TL245 t647) and Daimler (DBL
9440.40) standards. Other carmakers
are currently testing this topcoat in order to include it in their technical anticorrosion/tightening standards in the
near future.
Unique performances even in
offshore atmosphere
Business sectors such as offshore, wind
power and building are also very interested in this system. Indeed, Geomet 321 + Plus VLh was certified by the
institute Germanischer Lloyd who confirmed corrosion resistance according
to DIN EN ISO 12944-6 :1998, C5-M
High, 1440 hours extended to 2016

LIQUID COATING
Automotive Supplier Relies on Efficient Pump Technology
High-Performance Double Diaphragm
Pump in the Paint Shop
A leading automotive
supplier has invested in highperformance pump technology
for coating bumpers. With
this investment, the company
achieves a long service life
for the pumps and can at the
same time ensure high process
reliability and energy efficiency.
A
s a leading global automotive supplier, Magna has 315 production
sites and 82 centres for product development, engineering and sales in 29
countries. The Magna Exteriors plant
in Obertshausen, Germany, produces
bumper systems for the automotive industry. In 2011, the decision was made
to build a new paint shop to meet the
highest, state-of-the-art demands with
regard to performance, efficiency, economy and environmental compatibility.
A painting line from the company
Lactec from Rodgau was chosen. The
pump technology for pumping the special paint was supplied by the company
Timmer-Pneumatik. Around 40 colour
changes take place during each shift. To
ensure that the painting robots are able
to operate, the paint must be delivered
at a pressure of around 8 to 10 bar. This
is the basic requirement for the compressed air diaphragm pump which is
used in such painting lines. The pressure required is produced by a 3:1 double diaphragm pump from Timmer.
The energy source and driving medium for the pump is the factory’s normal compressed air system.
High start-up reliability
An important criterion in selecting the
right pump is start-up reliability. If the

painting robot, for example, changes to
a new colour, there is a brief moment
during which the robot is not spraying
any paint. Accordingly, the pump stops
as soon as the pressure equilibrium has
been achieved. If this pump standstill
occurs in an unfavourable position, this
can result in start-up problems in conventional pumps when paint is suddenly required by the robot again.
An important new development
therefore concerns the pump’s reversing valve, which has been newly
designed as a low-wear, ceramic f lat
slide valve and, in combination with
the spring-loaded valve, ensures the
start-up reliability of the double diaphragm pump even at pressures of
below 1 bar.
The situation becomes more complex when the bumpers need to be
painted in a new colour. As the paint
materials are expensive and there is a
need to protect the environment, Magna therefore aims at minimising paint
losses and using cleaning agents as economically as possible. For that reason,
during colour changes the paint is first
transferred back to the paint container
by a pig. This ensures that the paint that
is still in the pipe system can be almost
completely reused.
Significant reduction in cleaning
time
Pig technology, however, cannot be
used in the pump itself or in any pulsation dampers that may be installed.
The new valve technology used in the
pump means that it has such low pulsation that no pulsation dampers are required. As a result, only the amount of
paint that finally remains in the pump
is actually lost.
The Timmer 3:1 double diaphragm
pump has a very small chamber volume (approximately 200 ml) relative
to the pumping performance and at
the same time has a favourable geometry. This means that paint loss here is
very low. Only approximately 80 ml of
paint remain in the chamber even when
the pump has been separated from the
paint container and the remaining
paint has been pumped off.
In addition to paint recovery, complete cleaning of paint residues from
the system is important. After pigging,
there are still small amounts of paint
left in the pipe and in the pump. These
are dissolved by using suitable cleaning
agents and are flushed from the system.
This process should take place as quickly as possible in order to minimise time
losses during colour changes.
Unlike conventional products, the
new pump has a high double stroke
frequency due to its reversing valve,
thus minimising cleaning time. As the
pump must also remove the cleaning
agent from the pipe system, the pump
should be capable of dry running. This
is not always the case with all pumps on
the market. In contrast to the Timmer
pump, the diaphragm in some competitor pumps can suffer permanent damage as a result.
Perfection
in every detail
Summary and conclusion
These double diaphragm pumps are
compact, process-reliable, energy-saving and low-maintenance pumps with
ATEX certification even for difficult
conditions. A particular feature is the
pump’s long service life.
In addition to the general advantages of the pump, there are also specific benefits for painting applications,
such as the pump’s high dry-running
capability, low pulsation, low chamber volume and high double stroke frequency. The 3:1 pumps can generate a
pumping pressure of up to 20 bar and
are available in stainless steel. hnology:

Improving Quality and Productivity
Services for Automotive Paint Shops
The world of car production relies on the division of labour – and that also apples to the finishing
process. Service providers support car manufacturers in improving the quality and productivity of the
entire paint shop.
T
he finishing process is one of the
most complicated – and also one
of the most expensive –processes in a
car’s production chain. Many different
chemical, physical and mechanical procedures need to be perfectly mastered
in order to achieve an optimum result.
And there are also many influencing
factors that can either impair or optimise the process. As a specialised service provider, Voith Industrial Services has taken on the task of advising car
manufacturers in this activity and supporting them with a wide range of services.
From cleaning to paint defect
analysis
The most effective way of achieving cost
savings in the finishing process is to reduce unit costs by avoiding paint defects. Frequent sources of defects are
contaminants such as fibres, abrasion
products from conveyor systems or ex-
cess overspray. However, cleaning processes, workers and the workpieces
themselves can also be a source of dirt
contamination.
In order to eliminate these sources of defects in the long term, it is important to analyse the dirt contamination and to introduce corresponding
preventive measures. For this purpose,
Voith Industrial Services has developed a tool called Paint Defect Analysis (PDA). It is based on a program that
was developed to analyse, classify and
determine the origin of contaminants.
There are various models for implementing the PDA system in the
paint shop. This optimisation method at its most effective when it is performed continuously and parallel to
production. A service technician from
Voith is either permanently on site or
visits the production process at regular intervals in order to analyse any defects that may have occurred. The op-
erator then receives a report that provides clear suggestions on eliminating
the source of the defect.
Objective: optimisation of the
painting process
Furthermore, there is also the possibility to train the operator’s workforce in
using the Paint Defect Analysis system.
The objective is to optimise the painting process with regard to reducing rework rates, increasing plant availability
and cutting operating costs. The PDA
system is also frequently the starting
point for a package of measures aimed
at improving the first run rate and
which is tailor-made to the customer. This package consists of optimised
cleaning of the painting equipment and
measures to generally avoid dirt contamination. These may take the form
of organisational measures but can also
include technical modification or optimisation of the existing paint shop.
Technical plant cleaning is one
of the basic tasks performed by
industrial service providers in
paint shops. Here, the sensitive
application equipment of a
painting robot is undergoing
expert intermediate cleaning.
16
An industrial service
provider for the
automotive industry
Voith is a globally active technology group operating in a wide variety of markets. Its operative business is pooled in four Group Divisions: Voith Paper, Voith Hydro,
Voith Turbo and Voith Industrial
Services. The largest division of
Voith Industrial Services is Automotive. More than 14,000 employees support the processes of the
international Voith customers in
the automotive industry. According to the company, it is the world
market leader in technical services
for paint shops and provides continuous support for more than 90
painting lines worldwide.
Independent of the PDA system,
regular technical cleaning of the finishing equipment is one of the measures with which operators can ensure
reproducible quality of the paint finish. Cleaning the increasingly complex equipment requires a detailed understanding of all processes. The specialists from Voith Industrial Services
are precisely familiar with the requirements and can ensure the continuous
availability of the finishing lines by
applying fast, non-harmful processes. Technical plant cleaning is a typical on-site service. In addition, how-

ever, Voith also offers special technical
cleaning services, such as ultra-highpressure water cleaning at up to 2500
bar or dry ice cleaning.
Intelligent maintenance ensures
availability
The step from Paint Defect Analysis
and special technical plant cleaning to
plant maintenance is not a small one
but it is still only one step. Voith Industrial Services offers tailor-made maintenance concepts for many areas of car
production, including and in particular for paint shops. The aim is to co-
operate with the customer to minimise
downtime and optimise maintenance
processes. On request, Voith can take
responsibility for the complete maintenance of all machines and equipment
required for production. This ranges
from conveyor systems and painting
robots to complete painting lines.
A good example of this comprehensive service is the online and offline maintenance of a paint shop for
a car manufacturer in Brazil. Whereas
the focus at the beginning of the project
in 2003 was on launch support, guarantee management and plant availability

assurance, it is now on plant optimisation, continuous improvement and further development, including, for example, the use of new materials and paints.
Build Operate Transfer remains
common practice
A further focus is on the operation of
complete paint shops or self-contained
sub-sections of a painting line. As long
ago as 2008, Voith planned a paint shop
in Slovakia for one of Europe’s largest
commercial vehicle manufacturers,
which it put into operation in 2009. At
this plant, add-on parts for commercial vehicles are electrocoated and powder coated on behalf of customers. A
throughput time of less than 36 hours
per job enabled the customer to drastically reduce logistics costs.
From the customer’s perspective,
the Build Operate Transfer concept offers the advantage that customers can
concentrate on their core business, as
the complete process reliability lies
with the operator. The package of services is rounded off by clear interfaces
between the operator and the custom-
er as well as full service provision for
the plant, including plant cleaning and
maintenance. On request, the customers’ painting lines can also be used for
third-party orders, thus improving the
utilisation of the line’s capacity.
Voith has recently taken on responsibility for equipping an electrocoat line for an automotive supplier.
Such sub-areas are ideally suited for a
Build Operate Transfer model. These
also include, for example, filter management for the complete ventilation
and exhaust systems, the paint supply
room with a pump service, paint sludge
coagulation or the supply of wax and
PVC. Within the framework of a Build
Operate Transfer concept, Voith can
also take responsibility for logistical
tasks such as operating material logistics, including paint removal, or nonproduction tasks such as process data
recording and documentation.
Integrated solutions are in
demand
The fact that there is a great demand for
such services in the automotive industry is shown not only by the experience
and business development of Voith, but
also by the statistics. At approximately 32 percent (in 2012), “Maintenance”
makes up by far the largest percentage of the industrial service provider’s
sales. Customers are increasingly asking for integrated solutions and often
hand over entire service units to the
service provider, thus enabling them
to concentrate on their core processes.
Within the range of services, the second largest percentage is the technical
cleaning of plant and machines (approximately 10 percent), followed by
“Engineering” (approximately 9 percent). Consulting services play a secondary role. The subject of “Integrated
Services” remains important. Services
provided from a single source are still
in great demand among customers of
industrial service companies.
Production partner
Specialist staff check the filters in a spot repair booth.
18
Modern service providers for automotive paint shops have meanwhile become more of a partner for the production process than a pure supplier.
In many areas, they support value-cre-
ating processes and serve as an innovator and mediator for new technologies. In order to further advance this
development, Voith Industrial Services established its “Integrated Paint Services” (IPS) business unit in 2012 with
the aid of combining all services relating to the painting process – from process and plant planning to the operation of complete painting lines. IPS is
centred around a core team of painting
experts. Specialists from the different
sites can support the core team at any
time. In this way, Voith can combine
the expert knowledge that it has gained
worldwide in order to make it available
to the customer.
Beyond the limits of service
provision
The formation of the IPS business unit
shows that the business field and range
of services of an industrial service provider is being continuously expanded
and is moving towards integrated service packages. A few years ago, for example, it was still unthinkable for service providers to carry out the maintenance of an automotive painting line
on their own responsibility. Today, it
has already become a reality and there
are many other areas in which service
providers can support the OEM in the
paint shop without a product losing its
identity.
If the development of recent years
is taken a step further, it is absolutely
conceivable that a service provider will
take responsibility for operating a complete vehicle painting line. The knowledge required to do this is certainly already available. If one takes all the individual services provided by Voith and
combines them, this can result in an interesting approach towards future projects – particularly in regions in which
car manufacturers do not have or do
not want to build up their own resources and competences. solid&powerful

POWDER COATING
Increasing Cost-Effectiveness
New Application System Provides
Consistent Powder Output
The key features of a newly developed pump for applying powder coatings are its compact design,
high levels of cost-effectiveness, constant powder flow and low maintenance requirements.
The pump has been designed specifically for users who expect a large and consistent powder output
and high-quality coatings in multiple colours.
P
quality, reproducible coatings across
multiple shifts.
“During the development of the
OptiSpray AP01, we had the specific
requirements of manufacturers of aluminium profiles, large components,
white goods and automotive parts in
mind. The new pump is particularly
suited to applications which have a high
powder consumption, use long hoses
or need constant coating quality over
long production cycles. In all other areas, injector technology will still be our
first choice for transporting the powder to the gun,” explains Roman Mlakar, product manager at Gema Switzerland GmbH.
Slim, low-maintenance design
One significant feature of the application pump is its slim design. It takes up
no more space than an injector, which
means that it can easily be integrated
into a system. The new pump is currently the most compact of its kind on
the market and can be installed horizontally or vertically.
The pump offers other benefits:
“Our main focus in the development
process was on achieving a consistent
powder output. Other types of system
require daily adjustment because their
parts are subjected to heavy wear. The
OptiSpray AP01 has no wear parts of
this kind, which enables it to offer high

umps have been used in electrostatic powder coating processes for some years, but until now the
complex design and high maintenance level of the pumps available
have prevented them from becoming a common component of powder
coating systems.
Gema Switzerland GmbH has
successfully employed powder pumps
for transporting powder within a coating system for a long time. On the basis of its experience in this area, the
company has developed a new powder pump (OptiSpray AP01). It is used
for applying the powder and is aimed
specifically at users who require high-

levels of reproducibility over a very long
period,” says Roman Mlakar.
Cost-effective and non-damaging
The powder pump is based on Gema’s
SIT (smart inline technology) principle, which involves a completely linear
powder flow. In contrast to other systems, in which the powder changes direction within the pump by up to 180
degrees, this allows for gentle handling
of the powder and makes the automatic colour changes simpler and cleaner. The low speed at which the powder
moves ensures that sensitive powders
are processed carefully and not damaged during the transport process.
Integrating the pump into the OptiCenter OC03 powder management
system results in very short suction
pipes, which in turn leads to a significantly improved and more consistent powder output. The new pump can
maintain a constant output of between
50 and 300 g/min.
The direct supply of atomising air
at the powder gun (OptiGun GA03-P)
enables the powder cloud to be precisely adjusted, which is particularly useful for powder coaters with high quali-
ty standards. Together with the consistent powder output, this allows powder
savings of up to 15 percent.
In summary, the OptiSpray AP01
is a highly versatile component which
can increase the cost-effectiveness of
the powder coating process.
Positive experiences in practice
One of Europe’s largest furniture manufacturers has been using the new powder pumping system for some time. The
company has thoroughly tested the
new product and found that its powder
handling and maintenance levels remain impressive even after six months.
“Throughout the entire period, we
achieved a constant powder output,
consistent film thicknesses and reproducible coating results. This guarantees
that our coatings are of a consistently
high quality, which is essential to us as
a manufacturer of furniture in the premium segment,” says the head of the
company’s coating department.
Identical design and operating
concept
One of the main characteristics of the
latest generation of Gema application
systems is their compact design. This
applies to every component in the system, including the devices used to
transport the powder from the container, the powder management system (OptiCenter OC03), which comes
with the new pumps and pump control
modules (OptiStar CG12-CP), and the
most recent generation of automatic
spray guns (OptiGun GA03-P).
All the components of the new application systems have an identical design and operating concept, whether
the injector technology or the application pump. In combination with modern rapid-colour-change booths (with
Equiflow technology), the integrated
system offers a constant flow of powder, consistent coating thicknesses,
high levels of reproducibility and fast,
clean colour changes. Contact:

POWDER COATING
Lower Curing Temperatures
Saving Energy with Low-Temperature
Powders
Reducing energy consumption is a topic of growing importance. The possibility of using lower curing
temperatures with standard powders is very high on the wish list of many powder coating companies.
IST carried out a survey of leading coating manufacturers to find out about their views on the subject
and the solutions they offer.
T
systems cure at much lower temperatures than standard powders, but over
the same period of time. Lowering the
curing temperature cuts the consumption of oil, gas or electricity (in the case
of electric ovens), but is reducing the
temperature also the key to increased
cost-effectiveness?
The combination of the time and
the temperature is crucial
All the powder manufacturers in the
survey emphasise that the focus should
not only be on the curing temperature,
but also on the combination of time
and temperature. “It is of little use for
a coating company to cure a powder
at 140°C, but for a period of at least 30
minutes,” says the representative of one
German manufacturer.
In addition, simply reducing the
curing temperature only brings finan-
cial benefits if the oven can be operated permanently at the lower setting and
the throughput of the substrate is correspondingly high. Specialist coating
companies in particular are not able
to adjust their oven settings constantly in order to select the right temperature for each powder. This is not possible because of the slow response of the
oven and the time needed to make the
adjustments.
Companies that coat their own
products in-house do have the potential
to lower their energy costs by reducing
the oven temperature, because the process is simpler and involves a consistent
range of parts and colours.
The other option is to keep the curing oven at the temperature needed for
standard systems. If low-temperature
powders are cured within this temperature range, they cross-link much more
© ebm-papst
he first question to ask is which
products can be considered to
be “standard powders”. The powder
manufacturers Axalta (formerly DuPont), Brillux, FreiLacke, Ganzlin, IGP
and Karl Bubenhofer agree that curing temperatures between 160°C and
180°C and a curing time of 10 minutes
are characteristic of standard powders. Some other manufacturers classify standard powders as needing a curing time of 10 minutes at a temperature
of 200°C.
Many coating companies would
like to save energy by reducing curing temperatures, but they often do
not realise that they are pushing at an
open door. Low-temperature powders
with curing temperatures in the range
of 140°C to 150°C and a curing period of 10 minutes have been available
for several years. These highly reactive

22
quickly. As the oven is often the bottleneck in the coating system, this increases the production capacity and
leads to reduced overall costs. However,
it is important to obtain precise information in advance about the processing
parameters of the powder in question.
In any case, improved productivity can be achieved within the coating
system as a result of the increase in the
conveyor speed or the reduction in the
oven processing time.
The low curing temperatures also
open up a range of additional applications, such as powder coating on plastic substrates. In addition, in the case of
complex assemblies with walls of varying thicknesses, reducing the peak temperature can lower the risk of over-curing (yellowing).
Why are low-temperature
powders not widely used?
Low-temperature powders are the ideal
solution for reducing energy consumption and increasing cost-effectiveness.
So why are they not more commonly
used? What are the reservations about
this type of system?
One powder manufacturer describes a possible reason for this: “For
specialist coating companies in particular, lowering the oven temperature is
the exception rather than the rule. Because the various manufacturers produce different types of powder coating,
there has been no attempt to standardise the curing temperature at a low level. As a result, the different powders
need different oven settings.”
Of course, some users with short
continuous oven systems have been
consistently making use of low-temperature powders for several years. However, the majority have taken the approach that low-temperature powder is
a positive development, but they have
not fully exploited all its various benefits.
Another reservation among users
concerns the quality and handling of
low-temperature powders. A few years
ago there were problems with poor flow
and low storage stability, but modern,
energy-efficient low-temperature powders are now the equal of standard systems in terms of their technology and

their appearance. The argument that
manufacturers offer only a limited
range of products is now no longer valid, because powder producers have almost all shades and gloss levels in their
portfolios.
The only restrictions relate to a few
special applications, where the coating
is required to be highly weather resistant or easy to clean. A wide range of
low-temperature powders is also available for external use and these products come with approvals from quality control bodies such as Qualicoat and
GSB. This allows metal profiles and façade components to be coated without
problems.
The final argument is the slightly
higher price of low-temperature powders. Because they are still manufactured in smaller quantities, the pricing structures are different from those
of standard powders manufactured
on a mass scale. However, one powder manufacturer gives a concise solution to this problem: “If a large volume
of low-temperature powder was used,
this would definitely have an impact on
the pricing. The more users who choose
low-temperature powders as their default solution, the closer the prices will
get to those of standard powders.”
Some companies still believe that
low-temperature powders involve a different way of working, new coating parameters and changes to logistics systems. “The only difference relates to
the storage of low-temperature powders. It is important to ensure that they
are not exposed to direct sunlight or
to other sources of heat, because they
cross-link much more quickly. Otherwise they can be used in just the same
way as standard powders,” says one experienced production manager from
a company that has been using lowtemperature powders for several years.
Other users confirm that the powder
can be processed without the need for
any changes and gives reproducible results at all times, including in volume
production.
Individual consultancy for the
perfect solution
Low-temperature powder really seems
to be the answer to the problem of saving energy. Therefore, one powder
manufacturer has made the following
call to users: “Coating companies must
be brave enough to give low-temperature powders a try. If they do this, then
the low-temperature powders of today
will become the standard powders of
tomorrow.”
However, as the effective energy saving potential of low-temperature powder is ultimately the result of
a combination of individual production parameters, we strongly recommend that users ask their powder manufacturer of choice for in-depth advice.
Most powder manufacturers have efficient energy calculators which allow
each individual coating process to be
optimised. This will result in reproducible and sustainable energy savings, together with an increase in cost-effectiveness. Contacts:

CLEANING AND PRE-TREATMENT
Continuous Cleaning Machines for a Gearbox Manufacturer
Fully Automatic Cleaning Line
with Clean Room Connection
In order to meet very high standards of cleanliness reliably, a well-known international gearbox
manufacturer has invested in new aqueous cleaning machines which are integrated into the production
line and have a direct connection to the clean room.
W
hen companies attempt to achieve
even higher standards of parts
cleanliness, many find that their existing cleaning systems have reached the
limits of their performance. This is why
an international supplier to the automotive industry decided to take a new
approach as part of the process of extending its gearbox factory. The spotlight was on several machines for cleaning circuit boards for automatic and
double-clutch gearboxes before the assembly process in the clean room.
Limits on the maximum permitted particle size were very strict, as
were the levels of overall residual contamination on the components, which
was measured gravimetrically. A sim-
ple continuous spray machine was no
longer able to meet these requirements.
However, a continuous system was still
needed to enable the machine to be integrated into the production line. Following a search for a suitable solution
to its parts cleaning problem, the company finally chose a machine manufactured by Höckh.
Continuous machine for
integration into the production
process
On the basis of its Multiclean-P aqueous single chamber cleaning machine,
Höckh developed a customised solution specifically for the customer which
could be integrated into the production
line with a direct clean room connection. The machine has two cleaning
chambers arranged in series.
The high throughput of up to eight
baskets per hour required by the customer made it necessary to split the
process. The clean, dry parts leave the
machine opposite the loading area. The
first of a total of seven machines for the
automotive supplier came into operation at the end of 2013.

ed into special parts holders for final
cleaning. An RFID (radio frequency
identification) chip on the basket com-
municates with the machine and records all the relevant process parameters for the purpose of documenting
the batch.
The machine loads the parts into
the first cleaning chamber, where they
undergo an alkaline cleaning process
with ultrasonic support and bath agitation, followed by the initial rinse. After
a short interim drying phase, the parts
move into the second cleaning chamber. There they are rinsed for a second
time and then dried in a vacuum before passing along an enclosed conveyor system with a double air lock into
the assembly clean room. At the same
time the empty parts holders return to
the loading area.
A large oil trap in the first circuit
and a cartridge filter in the main flow
and the bypass of each tank are responsible for removing contamination from
the cleaning agent.
Energy-efficient solution
The machines also keep energy consumption to a minimum. The fact that
these are enclosed systems without vapour losses results in a significant energy saving when compared with the previous spray machines.
In addition, the multi-stage circulation pumps (with a maximum pressure of 8 bar) are fitted with IE-3 motors and frequency converters, as is the
dry screw vacuum pump. This allows
the performance of the pumps to be
adjusted to each individual stage of the
process. The tanks, cleaning chambers
and pipes are fully insulated to reduce
unnecessary energy losses. An energy
meter records the actual consumption
of the machine and enables the operator to cut energy use even further by
means of a range of software options. Contact:

New Solutions for the Engine and Gearbox Manufacturing Process
Cleaning Without Spots and
Discolouration
The sensitive surfaces of components can easily be attacked by cleaning agents, which can lead to
discolouration. In order to prevent this problem from occurring, a new cleaning product has been
developed that can be used in any interim and final cleaning processes in the engine and gearbox
manufacturing process.
C
leaning procedures in the automotive and supplier industries are becoming increasingly demanding and
complex and involve the removal of
different types of contamination from
components. The use of machining oils
must not affect the results of the cleaning process and the appearance and the
thickness of the surfaces must not be
impaired by the cleaning agent.
One example is sensitive aluminium alloys, particularly those with a
high proportion of silicon, which are
often used to make cylinder heads.
They can very easily be attacked by
the cleaning product and, as a result,
become dark coloured. This discolouration is not only a visual problem,
but also leads to faults with optical
surface scanning systems and, therefore, to the parts being reworked or
rejected. This phenomenon occurs
particularly when parts are cleaned at
higher temperatures of around 60°C
or more and/or exposed to the clean-
Components of engines and gearboxes, such as this ball bearing, require precisely the right
cleaning agents which do not have a negative impact on the appearance or the thickness of
the surfaces.
Two newly developed cleaning agents can
clean parts without marks forming and
allow the parts to be dried quickly.

ing agent for more than 15 minutes.
This may happen if the machine has
to be shut down, for example, which
results in the parts remaining in contact with the cleaning solution or being left in the vapour space above the
cleaning baths.
Rapid drying of parts
Chemische Werke Kluthe has developed a new cleaning agent (Hakupur
800) that avoids these problems and
prevents spots from forming, parts
from being inadequately dried and aluminium and other non-ferrous metals
from being attacked, even in unfavourable conditions.
The formulation contains no inorganic salts which helps to avoid marks
and residues occurring. It contains
glycols which have very good wetting
properties and ensure that the water
film runs off consistently. The result is
an even distribution of the corrosion
protection film and rapid drying of the
component.
The combination of glycols guarantees very good cleaning results and
wetting across the entire temperature
range from 20°C to 60°C, together
with effective inhibition of foam, even
in high pressure systems. The cleaning
agent also has excellent demulsifying
properties, which allows oils to be removed from the surface of the liquid by
bath maintenance systems.
duction shutdowns caused by foam formation can be avoided.
The cleaning solutions offer the following benefits:
—— can be sprayed cold and under high
pressure
—— cost-effective and energy saving,
can be used at room temperature
and above
—— contain no boron, phosphate or
FAD
—— resistant to bacteria
—— excellent wetting properties
—— free from inorganic salts
—— corrosion category 0 at a 2% concentration in accordance with DIN
51360 part 2
—— suitable for use with non-ferrous
metals
—— demulsifying
Summary
The newly developed cleaning solutions
produce high-quality results in almost
all cleaning processes. Hakupur 800
is ideally suited for interim and final
cleaning after machining and before
and after hardening processes (including before critical nitriding processes).
If the parts are more heavily contaminated, for example with long-term anti-corrosion agents, graphite or polishes, Hakupur 850 is generally the best
choice.

Effective removal of heavier
contamination
In order to remove heavier contamination (for example, mixtures of
graphite and oil, corrosion protection agents, cooling lubricants that
have become resinous), a more powerful cleaning agent is needed: Hakupur 850. This produces similar results
to highly alkaline systems. The surfactant structure has been designed
in such a way as to produce excellent
results even at temperatures below
40°C, without the problem of foam
forming. As the employees responsible for the cleaning systems generally come into direct contact with the
cleaning agent, highly caustic substances have not been used in the formulation of this product.
When alkaline systems are combined with corrosion protection products or greases, the result is often the
formation of large quantities of foam.
The combination of surfactants in
Hakupur 850 was deliberately designed
to counteract the formation of foam
under unfavourable conditions. This
means that in cases where common
highly alkaline cleaners are used with
an anti-foaming agent, if the newly developed cleaning product is chosen instead, the second component is no longer needed. In most cases, the number of
products used can be reduced and pro-

Flexible Multi-Metal Pre-treatment System
No Restrictions on Aluminium
A new pre-treatment technology for the automotive industry allows for a multi-metal treatment
at unlimited throughput of aluminium substrates. The process allows for greater flexibility in the
use of the capacity of production facilities.
T
he rising mix of metal substrates,
notably the lightweight construction material aluminium and also increasing volumes of zinc-magnesium
materials are imposing new challenges on the pre-treatment process. This is
why industry has for quite some time
been looking for possibilities of retaining the known benefits of the tried
and tested zinc phosphating technology while at the same time also meeting new market demands. Besides the
substrate mix, demands also include
ever more stringent environmental requirements, rising cost pressure and
also compliance with specific quality
standards and tests of the automotive
manufacturers.
Tailer-made pre-treatment
process improves productivity
The new GardoFlex system from
Chemetall consists of a large number
of high-performance modules around
the zinc phosphating technology. The
new process combines the traditional
benefits of a conventional zinc phos-
phating with optimised process components and thus meets the current requirements of the global automotive industry.
For every process step in zinc
phosphating, Chemetall offers adequate technologies that are coordinated to match each other – from cleaning and degreasing to activation and
phosphating through to the last rinsing step. These modules are specifically
combined to suit each individual production line. This allows increasing the
process efficiency and raising the production yield. Modules are selected as
a function of the substrate throughput, the plant technology available, local market conditions and legal regulations. By working together with the
customer, it is therefore possible to develop the ideal solution for every pretreatment process.
Modules reduce process costs
The new system allows for significant
reductions in process costs, for example by reducing the temperature down
to 35 °C in the zinc phosphating bath.
Practical experience has shown that –
depending on the throughput – energy costs in the six-figure range can be
saved. All process elements are optimally aligned and together with a distinctly longer bath service life, meaning
lower water consumption and smaller
effluent volumes, contribute to the resource-saving aspect of this technology. The reduced coating weight and
finer crystal formation on the metal
surface require less replenishment solution and thus lead to a reduction in the
chemicals consumption. Chemetall also offers an effective demulsifying process for degreasing baths, which brings
further benefits in terms of bath service
life and maintenance costs.
The GardoFlex technology can
be used in existing plants and usually
does not require any alterations of the
plant. Expensive cooling for activation
or rinsing baths to suppress the formation of a phosphate coating on aluminium substrates is no longer required as
the aim is to generate thin coatings.

No limits
Up to 70 per cent of the lightweight material aluminium are pre-treated in the production
plants of the automotive manufacturers – a fact that may lead to technically most demanding
application when using conventional zinc phosphating processes. This is where the strengths
of the new system lie, as it is suited for multi-metal applications without restrictions.
28
For some years already, the lightweight
material aluminium has been gaining
ground in automotive manufacture. Up
to 70 per cent are pre-treated in the production plants of the automotive manufacturers – a fact that may lead to technically most demanding application
when using conventional zinc phosphating processes. In contrast, GardoFlex is suited for multi-metal applications without restrictions. This stateof-the-art technology can be used for
all standard metal materials used in
vehicle manufacturing. No limits exist
for the throughput of aluminium sub-
sequent application of the cataphoretic paint (E-Coat) which could only
be remedied by way of extensive manual work. The GardoFlex process, by
contrast, generates a phosphate coating that smoothes minor irregularities
from upstream processes and thereby
supports a homogeneous deposition of
the e-coat.

A little more independence
On aluminium substrates the new system is especially beneficial: reduced coating weight,
fine crystal formation and low etching rate.
strates and even non-galvanized steel
can be treated without any problem.
This allows for greater flexibility with
regard to the utilization rate of production facilities.
On aluminium substrates GardoFlex ensures a reduced pickling loss
on the metal surface. This has a dual
positive effect for the user: it reduces
the consumption of fluoride-containing additives and significantly curbs
the phosphate sludge volumes. Espe-
cially the latter aspect helps economize
on maintenance and disposal costs.
Another benefit of the GardoFlex
technology is the deposition of a uniform, thin phosphate coating on the
aluminium substrate. With only a zirconium passivation, surface irregularities resulting from car body construction or pressing, like for example scrub
marks, scratches or impressions from
the vacuum cups of the robots, could
lead to visible problems for the sub-
Modern GardoFlex technology suited for multi-metal application can be
directly integrated into any production line. As a consequence, no costintensive alterations are required and
the benefits of the new technology can
be optimally adapted to each individual production line. Well-known vehicle
manufacturers throughout the world
are already putting their trust in this
new zinc phosphating process. It offers the automotive industry the maximum flexibility with regard to both
the production process and the substrate throughput, while maintaining
high standards of quality and keeping
process costs low. Contact:

Environmentally friendly pretreatment
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.
he sandwich panel construction of
modern reefer semitrailers is entirely bonded nowadays, rather than
bolted. This results in greater inherent
strength and more durable joints whilst
at the same time reducing production
costs. An added benefit is the reduced
weight, which in turn cuts down on fuel consumption and reduces CO2 emissions throughout the vehicle’s lifetime.
Schmitz Cargobull manufactures
its container vehicles in Vreden in
Westphalia. Here alone 15,000 new refrigerated semitrailers roll off the production line every year. For the environmentally safe production of the
walls and roofs of the vehicles measuring 13.50 meters long, 2.60 meters wide
and 2.80 meters high Openair atmospheric-pressure plasma technology is
employed before structural bonding.
Pretreatment in a matter of
seconds
This process developed by Plasmatreat,
Steinhagen almost 20 years ago and
used today in practically all sectors in
industry worldwide for pretreating the
surfaces of materials carries out some
key tasks for Europe’s largest trailer

tainer structures built completely free
of rivets withstand in optimum fashion the high demands on strength and
constancy of temperature imposed on
their freight spaces on their journeys
between producers and customers. The
Openair-Plasma process allows for microfine cleaning and simultaneous activation or for functional nano-coating of surfaces without interrupting
the production process. The systems
based on a jet principle operate in-line
and can be integrated easily in any new
or already existing production line. The
treatment is carried out under normal
air conditions and within a matter of
seconds. All that the environmentally friendly operation of the systems requires is electricity and compressed air.
Also the systems are without restric-
tion compatible with robots while the
process is safe and reproducible.
Cleaning and activating in one
step
“We became aware of Plasmatreat’s
technology first time at an international technical meeting some years
ago”, reports Johannes Pierick, Head
of Quality Assurance and Application
Technology at Schmitz Cargobull in
Vreden. “The capabilities of this process exactly matched our expectations
which we intended to incorporate into the construction of a new bonding
plant.” The trailer manufacturer’s primary goal was to eliminate completely the organic solvents used until now,
of which there were at least one liter
per finished container structure, and

in this way to rule out from the outset any risk of environmental pollution.
At the same time the manual surface
cleaning and manual roughening carried out up to that point was to be replaced by an industrial process. Both
requirements were to be performed by
the plasma process in one single working step.
In collaboration with the University of Kaiserslautern a test phase lasting six months was launched. Apart
from the interactions between atmospheric-pressure plasma, two-pack adhesives and the working material the
level of any emissions were also tested
since several plasma systems were to be
used simultaneously.

Following satisfactory test results,
planning of the technology for the entire plant including the in-line plasma system and the coating process ensued. When the first large-scale plant
with atmospheric plasma application
for the structural bonding of refrigerated box superstructures was finally commissioned at Schmitz Cargo
bull, this new application resulted in
important rationalization of production. While previously separate workstations were needed, it was now possible to combine pretreatment and adhesive coating in one operation since
the plasma system was integrated into the frame of the adhesive mixing
and metering unit. Pierick: „The special advantages of the atmosphericpressure plasma system consisted not
only in its space-saving method of application and the reliability of the process, but also primarily in that due to
the ultrafine cleaning and high activation by the plasma both wet degreasing and roughening are eliminated and
by substituting the use of solvent it was
possible to achieve a higher degree of
contentment among employees. Just a
year later we fitted out a second gluing
station with plasma units.”

of rivets. The walls and roofs consist of
a sandwich structure. This is a panel
sealed against diffusion of water vapor
having two sheet steel covering layers
and an intervening high-density polyurethane rigid foam core. The selfsupporting characteristic is obtained
by adhesively bonding the large panels into aluminium angle rails. To ensure optimum durability, strength and
imperviousness of the bonded joints
the panels are pretreated in advance in
the region of the bonding surfaces with
plasma.
Of the two plasma treatment stations running today at the Vreden
works one is used exclusively for the
structural bonding of the side wall
and roof panels. The triaxial installation containing the integrated plasma
system and the mixing and metering
head for the adhesive smear application
runs completely automatically after being invoked by the machining program
for controlling and adjusting the spacing relative to the object to be treated.
The plasma unit consists of two jet
systems each mounted to the right and
left on the outer edge of the same traversing unit on which the mixing and
metering head for the adhesive smear
application is also seated. Each jet system contains four rotary jets arranged
in offset manner. After a transport
crane has set the panels down the axle
with the now active plasma jets starts
32
moving and travels at a speed of 20 m/
min along the outer edge of a panel. The
rotary jets, specially designed for largescale treatment, spread the plasma at an
angle of 45° over a treatment width of
47 mm per jet. Depending on the direction 150 – 180 mm of the surface can
be cleaned and activated in this way in
one pass.
Pierick: “The important objective
here is to establish a reference standard set in advance by the pretreatment
of the plastic-coated sheet steel surfaces since it cannot be ruled out that the
parts exhibit fine impurities picked up
in transport. If that happened, however, they would no longer meet the reference requirements. The coatings are
mainly non-polar plastics (polyester
coating), which due to the plasma activation are now given new surface properties amenable to adhesion.”
Pretreatment must take place over
a minimum width of 300 mm along the
entire length or width of the panel. This
is the area on which immediately afterwards three beads of two-pack PU adhesive are applied. On safety grounds
generous overlaps are allowed for in the
pretreatment. In a total of three passes
the plasma system travels over the areas to be adhesively bonded.
A second pretreatment station is
available for ultrafine cleaning and activation of container fittings such as
double-decker and load-securing rails.
In the case of these parts also a fixed
reference state is produced in advance
by the pretreatment. In this way it is
ensured in further processing that the
flush joints on the panels reliably withstand all stresses.
Conclusion
The demands imposed on the bonded joints are correspondingly high and
can only be met by means of reliable
and reproducible pretreatment. In this
field treatment with atmospheric-pressure plasma successfully replaces conventional pretreatment, i.e. mechanical
roughening and activation by means of
environmentally polluting solvents.
The contribution to environmental
conservation that Schmitz Cargobull is
making in the production of refrigerated trailers is impressive. At least 20
metric tons of wet chemicals are saved
every year here solely due to the use
of Openair technology. Moreover, the
high-tech rotary plasma systems integrated into the process workflow allow
not only a reliable but also an extremely effective and distinctly economical
pretreatment of surfaces to be bonded.

More Reliable Solvent-Based Cleaning Processes
Solvent Analyses
and Oil Compatibility Tests
In addition to its expertise in optimising solvent cleaning processes, a new laboratory service also offers
solvent analyses and oil compatibility tests to improve process reliability.
H
igh-quality parts cleaning and degreasing plays an increasingly decisive role in many industries. Choosing the right cleaning system and the
most appropriate solvent is as important in competitive terms as continuous quality control.
Under the brand Chemaware, Safechem Europe offers expertise and
services relating to the sustainable and
efficient use of solvents in industrial
parts cleaning. Its portfolio now also
includes the well-established and varied laboratory services from Dow/Safechem, such as solvent analyses and oil
compatibility tests. Because of the high
levels of demand, the company has increased its capacity by opening additional labs in Germany. The new certified Chemaware labs are equipped with
state-of-the-art analysis facilities and a
faster logistics system. Different analytical processes are used to monitor the
quality of the solvent. They enable important factors to be measured, such
as the purity, stabiliser concentration,
decomposition products, oil and water
content and acid profile of the solvent,
which could affect the cleaning process. However, the analyses are not only used to track down and resolve the
causes of cleaning problems. They are
also a means of documenting the stability and quality of the cleaning process for the purpose of quality audits or
to provide proof for customers. At the
same time, carrying out checks on the
quality of the solvent makes it possible
to take the necessary bath maintenance
measures in good time. When a company decides to invest in a new cleaning system, oil compatibility tests can
help to ensure that the system chosen
is the right one. They enable the possible influence of machining oils on the
properties of the solvent and the relia-
bility of the cleaning process to be identified in advance. The results allow an
informed decision to be made about the
most suitable solvent and stabiliser for
the application in question. As the tests
can be carried out at normal pressure
and in a vacuum, it is also possible to
identify the best type of machine, from
both a technical and a cost perspective.
This is an important criterion for plant
manufacturers, in particular in the case
of customers who are using critical oils
containing chlorine or sulphur.

Supplier Optimises Parts Cleaning for Changing Requirements
The Cleaning System and Tank
Combination is the Key
With a portfolio of around 1,000 different parts, it is no easy task to fulfil the growing demands regarding
technical surface cleanliness. In order to meet this challenge, a precision parts supplier has invested in
two new custom-equipped cleaning systems and a set of versatile cleaning tanks.
A
llweier Präzisionsteile GmbH was
already established more than 40
years ago as a vendor and system/development partner for machining solutions. The core competencies of this
family-owned enterprise based in
southern Germany lie in CNC turning,
milling and grinding services as well as
in module and component assembly.
The company owns an extensive pool
of state-of-the-art equipment for machining aluminium parts, including
castings, steels, cast iron, cast steel, titanium and special materials. Its portfolio currently comprises around 1,000
different items for diverse applications
in mechanical engineering, plant construction, automotive manufacturing,
conveyor technology and robotics, marine and offshore systems, optical and
medical equipment, railways and other sectors. In all, Allweier processes
around 20 million parts each year.
“ Cleaning the machined parts
poses quite a challenge, on the one
hand, because of the sheer diversity of
materials, part geometries and dimensions. On the other hand, demands on
the technical cleanliness of surfaces
have grown significantly over the last
few years. Requirements such as ‘zero
particles larger than 600 µm’ are common today, and steel parts need to be
perfectly protected against corrosion
as well”, explained Thomas Schmidt,
Technology Planner for Rotary Machining Processes at Allweier Präzisionsteile GmbH. In order to reach the
specified levels of cleanliness with process reliability while boosting the effi-

ciency of the cleaning step in the manufacturing chain, the company invested in two cleaning systems (Universal
81W) from Dürr Ecoclean plus a set of
custom-designed cleaning tanks designed and manufactured by Metallform Wächter.
Tailor-made equipment for higher
efficiency
“We talked to four equipment manufacturers and conducted cleaning trials.
Dürr Ecoclean not only gave us excellent advice but also offered the equipment solution best suited to our task”,
said Thomas Schmidt. The cleaning
system has a vacuum-tight working
chamber in which its cleaning, rinsing
and drying operations take place. Both
systems are designed for a basket size
of 670 x 480 x 300 mm (LxWxH) and
a maximum charge weight of 150 kg.
In order to ensure a reliable removal of adhering particles and chips as
well as of machining fluid residue, the
work chamber is equipped with a highperformance injection flood washing
function and an ultrasonic cleaning
system with a power rating of 10 watts
per litre of bath volume.
The parts are dried by combined
hot-air and vacuum treatment. “We also have parts with cavities which were
often still moist on leaving our old continuous cleaning line. Thanks to vacuum drying, these products now come
out completely dry as well”, Thomas
Schmidt added .
The different requirements regarding cleaning aluminium and steel parts
are addressed by a tailor-made configuration of the new cleaning systems.
Upon completion of the cleaning process, the product passes through a cooling zone so that
the cleaned parts can enter the packaging station without delay.
The fluids from all flood tanks are
subjected to full-flow filtration in the
supply and return lines alike. While the
cleaning fluids are run through bag filters, cartridge filters are used for the
rinsing and anti-corrosion fluids. This
ensures highly effective removal of particulate contaminants.
Film-type contaminants such as
emulsions are removed first by the oil
separator and then additionally by the
Aquaclean system. This evaporates the
Pictures: Allweier
For example, the system for steel parts
and steel castings has four flood tanks.
This makes it possible to adapt the fluid used in the cleaning step to the given
part (i.e. steel or casting). The third and
fourth flood tanks hold the rinsing and
preservation fluids, respectively.
The new aluminium cleaning line
is equipped with three flood tanks. It
comprises an additional treatment system for the demineralised rinsing water. The quality of this water is monitored continuously. “ With aluminium parts, it is very important to rinse
with demineralised water and to ensure quick and complete drying. This
ensures that the parts will remain free
of stains and discolorations”, the Technology Planner explained.
Around 80 percent of all parts are
cleaned in a defined position. Parts are
supplied by an automatic feeding system comprising buffer sections at the
entry and exit. Appropriate cleaning
programs are stored in the system controllers. The part-specific program for
each load is selected either by a basket identification system using sensors, or manually by the operator. After the cleaning process, the parts pass
through a cooling zone from which
they emerge ready for immediate packaging.
The load can be made up of one or more “standalone” part carriers designed for a specific
component or family of components each. In addition, part-specific inserts or a fully flexible
system for disc-shaped parts are used.
fluid from the flood tanks and returns
the condensed liquid into the process
circuit while collecting the dirt residue
in the Aquaclean tank. This fluid treatment method increases bath life while
also reducing the equipment outage
times necessitated by bath changes.
Versatile tanks purpose-designed
for the cleaning process
In order to realise the full potential of
their new systems, Allweier invested in
a set of new cleaning tanks. These allow
all parts to be variously arranged inside
for maximum cleaning and drying performance. The requirement specified by
the company to its four candidate suppliers was that all parts had to be protected as effectively as possible in the
tank, apart from being arranged and
secured to withstand rotation. After
all, the baskets are swung and turned
through up to 360 degrees in the cleaning cycle.
At the same time, each tank needed to hold a maximum number of parts
without restricting fluid or ultrasound
access to the product and impairing the
system’s cleaning action. Ease of handling was also high on the priority list.
“In the first phase, we were looking at
tanks for ten different parts. With that
objective in mind, all companies received the same documentation from
us. Metallform already stood out from
the other vendors in this bidding phase.
35
Disc-shaped parts are secured in the Mefo box with the aid of two different inserts, one of
which defines the number of shelf rows while the other defines the shelf depths. With six
different inserts, Allweier covers a broad range of disc-shaped components.
For instance, they supplied 3D design
drawings of the tanks with parts arranged inside, so I was able to imagine
at once how the part would be placed
and fixed in the basket. Their consulting service, too, was and continues to
be excellent. All this is backed by plenty
of competence and in-depth analysis”,
said Thomas Schmidt, explaining his
company’s decision in favour of Metallform Wächter.
In addition to a range of rigid, partspecific product carriers for fast-selling
parts, a variety of different semi-flexible and fully flexible solutions were
implemented. These are designed to be
used for different components or com-
ponent families at the same time and to
be quickly and easily adaptable to another part by the operator while production continues.
“Metallform provides us with optimum support in reducing the necessary number of part carriers by providing flexible technology. We derive
benefit from this not merely by saving
investment cost but also through reduced space requirements on the shop
f loor”, the Technology Planner explained. For instance, the range comprises a part carrier for aluminium annular housings measuring between 240
and 320 mm in diameter and between
20 and 100 mm in length. Relocatable
Teflon tube sheaths are used to protect the parts. These can be flexibly affixed to the part
carriers.
36
prism-type rake supports inserted into the basic carrier allow different parts
to be reliably accommodated and secured. At the same time, the part fixtures can be arranged in such a way as
to be in contact with the parts at uncritical points only.
For disc-shaped parts of various
diameters, Metallform developed a fully variable system. It consists of two different inserts, one of which defines the
number of shelf rows while the other
defines their depth. This makes it possible to create a part-holding structure
in no time, either in a Mefo box or in
the basic rack. Locking is by means of
spring-loaded snap engagement bolts.
All part carriers and cleaning baskets are made of round stainless steel
wire with an electropolished surface
finish. The round wire ensures good
all-round fluid and ultrasound access
to the parts. In addition, optimum
draining properties are ensured while
dirt and fluid carryover is minimised.
Moreover, the round wire provides a
reduced contact surface area. Local
sheathing in clip-on Teflon tube sections for additional part protection is
an option.
Improved quality and higher
cost-efficiency
This combination of new cleaning systems and tanks enables Allweier not
only to achieve, but in fact to outperform the technical cleanliness standards for all parts in a reliable manner. “We carry out regular laboratory analyses, and these have shown that
we are achieving a much better cleaning result. Unlike our previous continuous cleaning line, the system no longer requires compressed air for drying.
Moreover, the cleaning process is now
so effective that parts made in three
shifts can now be cleaned in just under two. It goes without saying that we
are working more efficiently as well”,
Thomas Schmidt concluded.

Change in concentration

changed by consumption but also by the carry-over in the part

oil separator) and the dilution
via return of rinsing water. Both

Determining the active surfactant concentration with bubble pressure tensiometers.
Often the dosing of the cleaning agent
components is carried out in a fixed
proportion based on the builder concentration that was determined by the
titration of the alkalinity. This proportion is determined when running-in
the cleaning process or by the supplier of the chemicals. It does not take into account the variety of contamination
on the parts. This type of dosing often
leads to surfactant depletion especially
with the drag in of oil.
To extend the lifetime of cleaning
processes bath care measures are used.
Ultrafiltration causes not only the removal of oil and contamination but
also the filtering of parts of the surfactants. Low-foaming spray cleaners
are used to remove the oil phase, but
also remove surfactants in the process.
This leads to surfactant depletion. The
same effect occurres, if dosing according to consumption is not carried out
duly.
The result of surfactant depletion
due to the lack of bath monitoring is
insufficient parts cleanliness which often causes the production of rejects in
cleanliness-critical follow-up processes such as bonding, welding or coating.

To prevent this, the surfactant is overdosed in numerous cleaning processes
due to safety aspects resulting in high
carry-over into the rinsing baths. Frequently, cleaning agent residuals remain at the part surface which could
have a negative effect on subsequent
processes.
In practice the bath lifetime is often determined based on experience.
An increased rate of defects in followup processes will be used as an indicator to change the bath solution. The real
reason for the insufficient parts cleanliness is the surfactant concentration
dropping below a critical threshold.
TheLack of bath monitoring results in
utilizing a new bath solution instead
of dosing according to consumption.
Bath monitoring as well as dosing of
surfactant and builder based on measuring values assure stable parts cleanliness.
Bubble pressure tensiometrie –
Measuring the surface tension
An effective way for monitoring the
Surfactant is measuring the surface
tension with bubble pressure tensio
meters of Sita. The surface tension is determined by measuring the inside pressure of a bubble in a liquid. The reference value for measuring the surface
tension is the water value of 72.8 mN/m
at 20°C (substance constant). The combination of the surfactant concentrations is realized with reference characteristic curves that are saved within
the device.
The surface tension shows the concentration of free surfactants that de-
termine the cleaning power. Active
surfactants that are not bound to contamination such as oil or particles attach to the bubble and change the bubble pressure. The current cleaning power can be monitored by measuring the
surface tension because only free surfactants are available for the cleaning
mechanism. Changes can be identified
immediately and replenishment can
take place in time. Over-dosage with
stronger surfactant depletion into rinsing baths is prevented.
Devices for manual and
automated monitoring
With the mobile device (DynoTester+)
cleaning and rinsing baths are controlled fast and easily and the required
surfactant dosage can be determined
reliably. For continuous process monitoring and dosing surfactants accord-
ing to consumption a process tensiometer (clean line ST) is used. It features
self-monitoring as well as fully-automated cleaning and calibration and
therefore, assures high process reliability.
Monitoring the surfactant component of the cleaning agent with bubble
pressure tensiometers assures stable
parts cleanliness due to consumptiondependent replenishment of the cleaning agent components. By extending
the bath lifetime and using the cleaning agent according to consumption
economic efficient process management is optimized. Contact:

High-Pressure Cleaning and Deburring
Machines Designed for Extreme Cases
High-pressure cleaning and deburring machines must produce good, reliable results. However, it is also
important that they are compact, cost-effective and flexible, offer high-speed processes and functions,
operate energy efficiently and can easily be integrated into existing production lines.
S
maller, rotationally symmetrical
components are generally processed
in rotary transfer machines and larger cubic parts in more complex cleaning lines. The processes available on
both types of machine include brush
deburring, high-pressure cleaning and
deburring, precision cleaning, immersion washing, ultrasonic cleaning, rinsing, blow drying, vacuum drying and
cooling. Other processes, such as plasma and laser cleaning, can also be provided by both types of system.
With its broad portfolio of products, the Sturm Group can offer a vari-
ety of different solutions. These range
from compact rotary transfer cleaning
machines through to complex cleaning lines which combine high-pressure processes with interlinking functions, automation and other technologies.
Special features of rotary transfer
machines
Rotary transfer systems are particularly suitable for rotationally symmetrical
components. They also make it possible
to use flexible parts holders, which can
be adjusted or replaced quickly, easily
and cost-effectively, when a wide variety of parts is being processed. These
machines have a high level of reusability and can accommodate many different types of parts if the parts holders
are standardised.
In these systems, drilled holes,
edges, undercuts and surfaces are processed at pressures of up to 800 bar in
alternating cycles. By rocking or turning the workpieces or the high-pressure tools, the angle of the cleaning jet
can be continuously adjusted. This allows high-quality, consistent results to
be achieved even at lower pressures and
with a smaller number of high-pressure
nozzles. The constantly changing angle
means that even chip build-up can be
removed reliably.
Cleaning chamber and cleaning
tool in one

As the high pressure tool is a solid cleaning chamber surrounding the
workpiece, it helps to reduce noise.
Therefore, the machine can be loaded
and unloaded manually at noise levels
below 75 dB(A), even when high-pressure processes are used. In addition, the
workpieces can be placed on the rotary
table manually or loaded automatically via a portal or a robot, depending on
the user’s requirements.
When the highest standards of
cleanliness are needed, the cycle times
start at 5 seconds. Because of the way
the different units are laid out, long
processing times and short non-productive periods can be guaranteed.
Furthermore, depending on the application, it is possible to meet cleanliness
requirements that include particles of
less than 200 μm in size and remaining
contamination levels of a maximum of
0.5 mg per part (for example, for gearbox shafts).
In each unit the parts holders are
tilted or turned using gearwheels, so
that the parts are cleaned from a different angle. This means that the deburring or cleaning agent hits the parts at
varying angles and in different positions. Ultimately, the process produces high-quality results which are also
cost-effective, because fewer nozzles
and air knives are needed.
Complex high-pressure cleaning
and deburring line
In a complex high-pressure cleaning
and deburring line, the actual highpressure unit is the robot cell. Inside
the cell, a robot picks up the part and
moves it through the individual cleaning processes without changing its grip
or putting the part down. On the one
hand, this makes a space-saving layout
possible, because the cleaning units can
also be positioned overhead. On the
other hand, the machine does not need
to be set up for different parts, which
also saves time. In addition, the cleaning line has an intelligent documentation system which takes into account
the data obtained while the machine is
operating and constantly improves the
process.
The round table can be equipped with between 20 and 24 positions.
Flexible, automated machines
A flexible system makes it possible to
adapt to the requirements of the different workpieces. In the same way as the
rotary transfer machine, the cleaning
line has a high level of reusability and
This complete processing line includes units for brushing, high-pressure deburring, highpressure cleaning, rinsing, blow drying, vacuum drying and cooling.
can accommodate a variety of different
components as a result of the standardised parts holders. Drilled holes, edges,
undercuts and surfaces are processed
in alternating cycles at pressures between 300 and 3000 bar. The high degree of freedom of the workpieces enables complex parts of different kinds
to be processed individually in different positions. As a result, high cleanliness standards can be met consistently where the parts have complicated shapes. In the case of complex cubic
components, such as engine blocks,
cylinder heads and gearbox casings, cycle times of up to 30 seconds are possible, as the individual processes, which
include brushing, high-pressure deburring, high-pressure cleaning, rinsing, vacuum drying and cooling, can
be set up separately and automated using the interlinking function. Contact:

Maximum Throughput and Maximum Cleanliness
A Benchmark for Cleaning Pipes
An innovative cleaning system for copper pipes sets new standards for throughput and cleanliness.
With a maximum batch weight of 4.6 tonnes, the machine can clean three batches per hour leaving
minimal residual contamination.
A
southern European manufacturing company produces high-quality copper and copper-alloy pipes for
almost all conceivable purposes, including general industrial uses and specialist applications in the drinking water and medical technology sectors. In
the medical technology industry it is
no longer sufficient to provide general
information about remaining levels of
contamination. Instead it is essential to
keep within the clearly defined limits.
Peter Hösel, head of the technical
department at Emo, has been confronted with increasingly stringent requirements over recent years: “The specifications are becoming more and more
challenging. In this case, the residual
carbon level after the copper pipes have
been cleaned must be lower than 0.1mg/
dm2. Requirements like this cannot be
met using conventional cleaning ma-
chines, in particular given the high
throughput that is needed.”
Strict specifications for cycle time
and cleanliness
The pipe manufacturer’s additional requirements for the cleaning system also presented a challenge. The machine
must be able to handle pipes of different lengths up to a maximum of 8.2 metres and with diameters between four
and 160 millimetres. However, the real
problem lies not only in the cleanliness
levels but also in the required throughput. For example, the time taken to
clean a batch of pipes which are 8.2 metres long and 60 centimetres in diameter and weigh a total of more than two
tonnes must not exceed 20 minutes.
In order to be able to meet these
demanding requirements reliably,
Emo simulated the application in its
in-house technical centre under reallife production conditions. In the adjacent laboratories, Emo carried out
its own cleanliness analyses. This simplified the choice of a suitable process
and machine and enabled the size of
the machine to be determined. After
the results had been presented to the
pipe manufacturer, the company decided to invest in a toploading system
(Vaiocs) from Emo Oberflächentechnik
which had been customised specifically
for this application.
High-speed filling and emptying
The technology in question is the first
choice when it comes to this type of
problem. Emo constructed the cleaning machine to meet the customer’s
specific requirements. The top-loading machine is designed to take up as
little space as possible when compared

of hot solvent. Once this vacuum stage
has been completed, the solvent passes through a filter unit and is returned
to the tank. The next stage involves degreasing the pipes with solvent vapour.
Finally, the pipes undergo an intensive
drying process. All the stages of the
cleaning process take place in a vacuum. In the first stage, perchloroethylene is used as the cleaning agent. “The
machine can easily be converted for use
with non-chlorinated hydrocarbons or
cleaning agents based on modified alcohols,” explains Hösel.
Excellent cleaning results
While the front parts container waits to be unloaded, the batch at the back is making its way
into the cleaning chamber.
with other systems. Nevertheless, a
high-performance machine of this
kind is still large. Including the automatic loading system, the machine is
16 metres long, seven metres wide and
4.5 metres high. It weighs around 40
tonnes and has a connected load of
around 300 kilowatts.
One of the key technical features
of the enclosed system is the parts containers, which are angled by four de-
grees. As Peter Hösel explains: “Angling the pipes makes the cleaning process significantly easier. Together with
the high-performance pumps, it also
allows the cleaning chamber to be filled
and emptied at high speed, which is essential to enable the cleaning process to
be completed within such a short time.”
The process consists of three stages.
In the first of these the cleaning chamber is flooded with around 6000 litres
The angle of the container helps the cleaning process and allows the chamber to be emptied
quickly.
The Vaiocs toploader complies with all
the customer’s specifications. The pipes
are cleaned to the required standard
of cleanliness and the process is fast
and cost-effective. With an average
batch weight of significantly above two
tonnes, the cleaning process lasts just
under 20 minutes, which is within the
required timeframe.
To ensure that the machine can operate 24 hours a day and seven days a
week, Emo has designed a new, easyto-use loading system. This consists of
a chain conveyor at the side of the machine which transports the parts containers to the loading and unloading
areas. It also has an electrohydraulic
handling system that loads the containers into the cleaning chamber and removes them after the process has been
completed. This means that two containers are constantly in use. While one
is in the cleaning chamber, the operators are removing the cleaned pipes
from the other and refilling it with contaminated pipes.
During test operations at Emo’s
site, the machine demonstrated that it
could meet all the requirements and in
particular those regarding the speed
of the process. As a result, the customer will need employees who can work
quickly and efficiently and a sophisticated internal logistics system in order
to keep pace with the machine’s fast
cleaning cycles.

Special Solutions Keep Costs Low
Hangers and Masking Made Easy
In order to guarantee the cost-effectiveness of the parts handling processes in paint shops,
state-of-the-art solutions for hanging and masking the parts are needed. Two practical examples
demonstrate the successful use of special solutions in real-life applications.

A
s a result of the constantly growing demands of the painting industry, standard hangers and masking solutions often no longer meet the
needs of paint shops. For this reason,
specially designed products are becoming increasingly common. At first
glance these special solutions often appear to be more complex and costly, but
a closer look generally shows that they
pay for themselves within a very short
time. Solutions developed specifically for each individual component that
is being painted significantly reduce
the number of faulty products and improve efficiency, because they often enable a much larger number of parts to
be painted at once.

known German bicycle manufacturer
which are used in the process of painting bicycle chain guards. The customer’s main requirement was to achieve a
significant increase in the throughput
of chain guards by opting for a special
hanger design.
Originally each chain guard had
to be fixed to an individual hanger and
painted separately in the spray booth.
Therefore, the aim was to be able to attach up to ten chain guards to one hanger, which would speed up and simplify the painting process. Following de-

tailed discussions between the designer
and the members of Emptmeyer’s inhouse prototyping team, the first prototype was developed. After some improvements had been made, the hanger was designed in such a way that five
chain guards could be attached to each
side. It is now also possible to fit different sizes of chain guard to one hanger.
Following a successful test phase,
the specially developed hanger system
went into volume production and is
now in use at the bicycle manufacturing plant. It has enabled the company
to increase the efficiency of its painting
process tenfold.
Special masking solutions
Masking parts reliably often presents
a problem in the painting industry. By
using special masking solutions, it is
possible to avoid the need for complex
and time-consuming tasks and this
can considerably increase the efficiency of the painting process. Emptmeyer developed a special silicone mask for
painting a rear light. The exact fit of the
masking solution prevents paint from
adhering to the outside surface of the
light when the inside of the reflector is
being painted. If this were to happen,
the light would no longer be reflective.
This type of special masking solution made from silicone and plastic
is developed on the basis of CAD data, drawings and samples of the components. The latest CAD technology
is used to produce real masking solutions during the project phase. This
avoids the need for the time-consuming creation of prototype parts. In addition, the masking is resistant to high
temperatures and chemicals and can
be reused several times. The use of this
type of masking also means that timeconsuming reworking is often no longer needed. AUTOMATED

Floor Conveyor for the Automotive Industry
A Faster and More Flexible System for
Painting Bumpers
The Japanese car manufacturer Honda has invested in a new paint shop for coating vehicle bumpers. A
power & free conveyor was chosen to transport the bumpers, which provides a simple and cost-effective
solution to the problem of a plant operating on different levels.
M
any international car manufacturers produce vehicles for the
US market in Mexico, including the
Japanese company Honda, which has a
production site in Celeya. In contrast to
many other manufacturers which outsource the production and painting of
their bumpers, Honda prefers to do this
in-house. In 2013, Dürr was awarded
the contract for a complete paint shop
for bumpers in Celeya. Unlike many
European companies, Honda opted for
a power & free floor conveyor system
to transport the bumpers, rather than a
skid conveyor. As part of the team engineering process, Dürr worked together
with the conveyor specialist Caldan to
plan the implementation of the P&F100
floor conveyor. By using tried-and-tested standard components together with
modifications specifically for the project in question, it was possible to integrate the new system seamlessly into
the Dürr paint shop.
Protection from steam and water
droplets
The power & free conveyor system has
double trolleys with a total length of
1800 mm. Each of these consists of one
front trolley and one rear trolley, which
are connected by a specially designed
main load bar. Goosenecks are mounted on the bar to meet the process requirements of a power wash cleaning
system. This allows the trolleys to be
given effective protection from steam
and water droplets as they pass through
the cleaning unit. To enable the jigs to
be turned in certain areas of the paint
shop, Dürr fitted rotation heads above
the main load bar.
The power & free conveyor supplies
the individual stations of the painting
line from the loading area in the plastic
manufacturing zone through to the unloading area. The trolleys pass through
the pre-treatment line and drying area, the primer, base coat and clear coat
spray booths with painting robots and
the individual f lash-off and drying
zones. The overall length of the conveyor, which has seven chain circuits,
is 1480 m and it is fitted with more than
200 trolleys.
The paint shop is arranged on four
different levels, with the loading and
unloading bays on the lowest storey,
the spray booths and interim dryer on
the next floors and the clear coat oven

conveyor has the benefit of being able
to accommodate inclines, in contrast to
conventional skid conveyor systems. It
can transport the bumpers to the different levels much more cost-effectively and simply. The design of the power & free system allows inclines and also trolley transfers and diversions to be
managed much more easily than with
traditional floor conveyors. This applies in particular to the control system
where the number of actuators and sensors can be kept to a minimum, which
in turn reduces the potential sources of

mm apart. Th is design results in a cycle time of 50 seconds per trolley, which
in theory allows 144 bumpers to be processed per hour, if two are loaded onto

SHOT BLASTING
Blasting Machine for Complex Welded Structures
Cleaning Steel Bridge Segments
The largest Russian manufacturer of steel bridges has invested in a new blasting machine to remove
scale, welding residues and other contamination. As a result, the bridge components, which are up
to 21 metres in length, are perfectly prepared for the next phase in the manufacturing process.
I
n November 2013, the largest Russian
manufacturer of steel bridges, Voronezhstalmost, installed a blasting system developed by Rump for cleaning
its steel bridge segments. The bridge
components are complex steel welded structures up to 21 metres long and
weighing between 5 and 32 tonnes. The
blasting machine is responsible for mechanically removing scale, welding residues and other contamination from
these components to ensure that their
surface has a uniform structure and is
perfectly prepared for the subsequent
coating process.
The blasting chamber is 50 metres
in length and in the centre has a 10-metre long blasting wheel zone made from
highly wear-resistant manganese steel
with an opening 2.5 x 3.6 metres in size.
Below the blasting zone is a hopper to
capture the shot.
Automated system with a large
blasting area
The bridge segments are placed on two
transport trolleys by a gantry crane and
moved into the blasting chamber on a
chain conveyor. After the outer door
has been closed, the automated blasting process begins. This involves the
trolleys transporting the component
through the blasting zone and back
again at a predefined speed. At a conveyor speed of around 1 to 2 m/minute
and with a surface cleanliness requirement of B SA 2.5, the blasting area varies between 15 and 24 m 2/minute, depending on the complexity of the parts.
If necessary, the internal surfaces of the
segments can be blasted manually in
the front part of the chamber.
The 20 blasting wheels are easily

improved efficiency and a blasting area around 12% larger than conventional blasting wheels. The special way
in which the shot is transferred to the
wheels almost doubles the size of the
so-called hotspot, the area where the
blasting is most intense, and ensures
that the individual grains of shot are
more evenly distributed in this area.
This produces a more uniform finish
on the blasted surfaces.
The housing of the blast wheels is
made entirely from manganese steel.
Inside the housing are three protective
collars made from highly wear-resistant
hard cast iron, which form an arc in the
roof area that is the shape of the blasting wheel. This prevents turbulence and

additional wear on the wheels. The collars can easily be removed.
Each blasting wheel has two side
disks and eight straight throwing
blades made from highly wear-resistant
special steel. They have an outer diameter of 410 mm. The wheels work on the
principle of mechanical pre-acceleration and have a centrally located distributor wheel. The adjustable distributor casing allows the blasting angle to
be chosen on the basis of the shape of
the components. The blades are guided
between the two side disks.
Easily replaceable blades
In order to make the job of maintenance staff easier, on this generation
of Rump turbines for the first time the
blades are fastened to the wheels without any additional fixing materials. To
change the blades, the inner structure
of the wheel is simply removed by undoing three bolts and the blades are
dismantled towards the centre of the
wheel. The low centrifugal mass ensures a high level of efficiency.
The wheels are driven by directly
connected AC motors with reinforced
bearings and a power output of 11 kW.
The throwing speed of the blast wheels
is around 87 m/s at a motor speed of
3000 rpm and with a shot throughput
per wheel of approximately 150 kg per
minute.
Significant reduction in wear
Depending on the type of parts being
blasted and their surface properties,
the shot consumption of each wheel is
around 2 kg/hour. Spherical cast steel
shot with a grain diameter of 1.2 mm
is used as the blasting agent. The shot
is targeted at the surface of the moving
bridge segments and creates an overlapping blasting pattern. This significantly reduces the wear on the blasting chamber and its internal panelling.
To adjust the intensity of the blasting
process, the motor speed of the blasting wheels and the throwing speed of
the shot can be changed from the control unit using a frequency-controlled
speed adjustment function.
The blasting wheels are located
on the wedge-shaped segments of the

hopper. Additional panels made from
manganese steel are positioned in the
direct blasting area to protect the machine housing from wear. The shot is
recovered by a screw conveyor in the
hopper and transported to a bucket
conveyor. In the downstream cyclone
phase, lighter and undersized particles
of shot are removed by an airflow and
transferred to the filter system. This is
followed by a sieving phase where the
coarse grains are separated out. The
cleaned shot is then stored in a bunker
and returned to the blasting wheels by
pneumatic dispensing units.
If the main bunker reports a shortage of shot, a top-up bunker that forms
part of the shot recovery system automatically adds new shot to the circuit,
until the main bunker is full. This ensures that the proportion of shot in the
blasting mix remains consistent.
Control system consisting of a
PLC and a touch panel
Dust extractors connected to the blasting chamber and the cyclone by pipes
are used to remove the dust. They contain cartridge filters with automated
cleaning units that use pulses of compressed air. The filtered dust passes
through the dust hoppers fitted with
slit valves below the cleaning units and
into Big Bags. The fans connected to
the units have a total airflow of 37,500
m 3/hour and a pressure difference of
250 daPa with a total power output
of 37.5 kW. To enable the cleaned air
to be returned to the factory building
and to save heating energy, an additional extractor with a secondary fine filter
has been fitted, which results in a dust
concentration in the waste air of <0.6
mg/m 3. The control unit is equipped
with a PLC and ensures that the machine functions without problems. The
machine is operated via a touch panel with a text display. Several configurable blasting programs are available
for components of different sizes to ensure that the results of the blasting process are reproducible. The machine’s total electrical connected load is approximately 336 kW.
In the area around the turbines in
the blasting zone, soundproofing has
been installed to reduce the noise produced by the machine to a maximum
of 85 db(A) when it is in operation. Because the process is largely automated,
manual intervention is only needed in
the loading and unloading areas and
for additional cleaning tasks.
The machine, which weighs around
170 tonnes in total, was installed and
commissioned within the scheduled
period of nine weeks and was then
handed over to the bridge manufacturer ready for operation. Contact:

Measuring the thickness of plastic coatings before they have been cured allows corrections
to be made early in the process. This article describes process improvements of this kind using
the example of different suppliers to the automotive industry and shows how measuring a
plastic coating immediately after it has been applied helps to increase the quality of the coating
and prevents parts from being rejected.
V
ariations in the plastic coating process often result in the plastic not
being applied evenly. If inline measurements are made using the CoatMaster
device from Winterthur Instruments,
deviations in the process can be identified at an early stage and corrected by
adjusting the process parameters.
Plastic coatings on plain bearings,
seals and other metal components are
an essential feature of the automotive
industry. Without these coatings, the
parts could not function without generating friction, because their surfaces
are exposed to specific loads. For example, the sliding properties and, therefore, the accurate fit of plain bearings
and pistons are extremely important
for their function. If a coating is too
thick, the component will no longer fit
in its intended position. If a coating is
too thin, it will wear away under load.
As a result, the manufacturing process
for plain bearings and pistons has to
meet very high standards.
and corrected at an early stage. The result is a controlled process which remains within tight tolerances. The device has already been successfully used
to measure plastic coatings in the production line, as the following two examples show.
Identifying problems early
A manufacturer of plain bearings needed to measure the plastic coating on
the half shells that would later be used
to make the bearings while they were
still wet. Incorrect settings, together
with ageing and wear of system components, can lead to the coating being
applied outside the required tolerances.
The existing magnetic induction measuring system used for quality assurance
purposes has to come into contact with
the coated half shells. This means that
the coating can only be measured once
it has dried, which wastes at least half
an hour. As a result, by the time the reference measurement is taken to identify any problems with the process, at
a production rate of 40 half shells per
minute, around 1200 half shells will
have passed through the coating process.
The CoatMaster will now be used
to detect any deviations in the process
immediately after the coating is applied, by measuring the thickness of
the coating on the wet half shells.
Firstly, the thickness of the dried
plastic coating is determined using
the CoatMaster. The results are compared with those of a magnetic induction measurement in the same position.
With an R 2 of 0.98, both methods cor-
The CoatMaster device from Winterthur Instruments allows coating properties such as thickness, porosity and
thermal resistance to be measured in
real time using a non-destructive, noncontact method. This means that deviations in the process can be identified

Measuring wet coatings
respond very closely. The standard deviation is identified over five repeated
measurements. For the CoatMaster it
is 0.2 μm and for the magnetic induction method 0.5 μm.
This means that the results of the
magnetic induction method have to be
averaged over six measurements in order to achieve a comparable level of accuracy to that of the CoatMaster. The
coating on the half shells is measured
vertically and from the side at an angle of around 50° using the CoatMaster, which means that the thickness can
be determined reliably at different positions on the half shell without having
to tip up the measuring device. Therefore, significantly more points on the
half shell can be measured in the same
amount of time when compared with
the magnetic induction method.
In order to allow problems to be
identified at an early stage of the process, the CoatMaster measures the
coating while it is still wet. Using the
measurement of the wet film, the device predicts the thickness of the dry
coating. For calibration purposes, a
measurement is taken of a sample with
a coating 8 μm thick, which is the required thickness. Then samples with
thinner and thicker coatings are measured with this single-point calibration.
The CoatMaster reliably detects deviations from the tolerance range, which
enables incorrect settings, ageing and
wear to be identified early and rectified
immediately without wasting time or
materials.
Documenting the coating process
reliably
At a piston manufacturing company,
the coating process is adjusted on the
basis of measurements of the diameter of the dry piston before and after
coating. However, it takes around two
hours for the coated pistons to dry and
to reach the correct temperature for the
second diameter measurement. Using
the CoatMaster, the thickness of the
anti-friction coating on the piston can
be measured while it is still wet, in order to save time.
The thickness of the coating on
both friction surfaces is measured automatically for every piston and the
Inline measuring series with the CoatMaster on both sides of a piston (red one side, blue
other side) with wet plastic coating. From the graph it can be seen that during the first four
measurements the coating thickness exceeds or falls below the tolerance range (pink area).
After the coating plant was readjusted prior to the fifth measurement, the coating thickness
is within the tolerance range on both sides. The results of the diameter measurement
(grey cross) are always within the tolerance range and do not allow any conclusions about
symmetry.
results are shown on a display. The
measurements indicate that the coating thickness is sometimes above and
sometimes below the specified tolerance range. The tactile measurement of
the diameter of the dry piston, which
takes place two hours after the coating
process and, therefore, two hours after
the CoatMaster measurement, shows
that the diameter is well within the tolerance range, but the asymmetrical distribution of the coating is not identified.
However, the measurements made
by the CoatMaster enable the uneven
application of the coating to be detected immediately and to be resolved by
adjusting the coating system. After
this, the thickness of the coating on
both sides of the piston is within the
tolerance range. The CoatMaster has
helped to ensure that the coating is applied evenly on both sides of the piston
and, therefore, that the piston is symmetrical.
This guarantees that the piston fits
accurately in the plain bearing. In addition, the tolerances for the process
can be made increasingly tight and
the start-up time for the coating system shortened considerably, because
the CoatMaster allows the thickness of
the anti-friction coating on the test pis-
tons to be measured while the coating is
still wet. The ageing process of the doctor blades can also be monitored. This
guarantees that they can be replaced
before they become too soft and the
coating too thick.
Shorter production times and
more accurate process data
Using the CoatMaster, companies that
apply plastic coatings can respond rapidly to problems with their coating processes. This not only shortens the production time, but also ensures that the
required quality standards are met.
The coating process can be fully documented for every part. In addition,
the CoatMaster reduces the time needed for process monitoring and quality assurance while increasing the accuracy of the process data. The examples described above demonstrate that
using the CoatMaster for inline measurements of the thickness of both wet
and dry plastic coatings is the ideal solution, also on curved and porous surfaces. Contact:

Environmentally Friendly Wastewater Treatment
W
hen deburring or polishing metal parts after they have been separated, a chemical additive in the water in the vibratory bowl feeder to supplement the mechanical effect of the
grinding cone is essential. The process
produces wastewater which is heavily
contaminated with heavy metals from
the workpieces and the cone, in particular when copper-based holders are
used. For this purpose, NGL supplies
a liquid polishing additive (containing
Tribo 110) which does not use NTA. It
is ideal for use in drums for polishing
parts and for producing a high-gloss
finish on ferrous metals, copper, aluminium, silver and gold. The chemical
effect is compatible with copper holders, porcelain and automatic highgloss systems. The additive provides
good protection against corrosion.

Handy, Intuitive Devices for Measuring Coating Thickness
H
elmut Fischer has added a new
automatically rotating graphical display and an easy-to-use menu
system to its MP0R range of devices
for measuring coating thickness. This
means that the devices each have two
displays to make reading the measurements easier in the different positions
that the systems are used in, such as
above head height or in areas that are
difficult to access. The main display
rotates depending on the position of
the device. Visual and audible
signals inform
users about the
measurement
results and indicate whether
they are inside
or outside the
specifications.
Saved measurements can
also be shown
on the display.
In addition, individual f ig ures c an b e
analysed and
statistical values can be requested. This
enables users
to identify anomalies and to monitor compliance with the specified tolerances. The robust devices provide
good repeatability, statistics func-
tions and standards-based calibration.
The hard metal pin used as a probe is
wear-resistant and particularly durable. According to the manufacturer, it
will last for many more measurement
cycles than conventional hardened
metal pins. The measurement regulations relating to the 90/10 rule, in accordance with the requirements of the
Performance Standard for Protective
Coatings issued by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO PSPC),
and the SSPC-PA2 measurement regulation issued by the Society for Protective Coatings (SSPC) are also stored
in the measuring devices. This means
that the devices are ideal for measuring anti-corrosion coatings. They can
be connected to a PC via a USB port
and the measurements can be evaluated and logged using the DataCenter software package. The different device models use either the magnetic
induction method (Permascope), the
eddy current method (Isoscope) or
both (Dualscope). The devices automatically identify the substrate and
select the appropriate measurement
process.

Intelligent Coatings Increase Competitiveness
T
he powder coating manufacturer Adapta Color has presented two
new collections for architectural applications, Vivendi A08 and A12, together
with the Smart Coatings Booklet, which
includes powder coatings with new
52
functional properties. For example, the
photocatalytic +Bio-Nox powder coating converts environmentally harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) into harmless
substances. The nitrogen oxide particles
from vehicle exhausts are captured, the
gases that damage the environment
are broken down (oxidative mineralisation) and, using ultraviolet radiation
from sunlight and oxygen from the air,
are turned into non-damaging nitrates.

Modular Two-Component Mixing and Dispensing System
F
ast, efficient processes and accurate dosing are key factors for increasing productivity in the application of liquid coatings. During the
process of expanding
its range of FlexControl products, Wagner
has focused even more
closely on the efficiency of the systems. According to the manufacturer, the electronic
control system of the
new FlexControl Smart
two-component mixing and dispensing machine allows for highly precise mixing and
rapid recipe changes, while at the same
time offering extremely user friendly operation and reductions in
material costs. In part as a result of
the integrated, fully automatic rinsing function, the machine meets the
highest standards for coating metal,
wood and plastic products with twocomponent materials. The new machine enables up to five paints and
two hardening agents to be used.
The Start, Stop, Flush and Change
Recipe functions can be activated
quickly and easily using four buttons or a remote control unit. Reci-
pes can be selected from the touch
screen or via a USB port from management software on a PC, which
also allows the data to be managed
ef ficiently. The additional functions make it possible to configure
the FlexControl Smart to meet individual needs. The VM 5000 electro-
static control unit increases safety for
users and the machine. It automatically switches off the high-voltage
supply during feeding or flushing
processes. A gun
distributor valve
allows individual
guns to be cleaned
independently in
two-gun applications. In flushing
mode, the double
dump valve keeps
the ready - mixe d
material already in
the machine and
the flushing agent
separate from one
another, which not
only makes manual use of the system easier, but also
saves time and cuts
costs. In the case of automatic applications, the mixing and dosing unit
can exchange information with a robot, which guarantees the reliability of the process. The machine can
also be used for processing threecomponent materials.

Effective Cleaning of Sensitive Substrates
H
ighly sensitive surfaces and components with very delicate struc-
tures, such as those found in the semiconductor industry, microsystems,
nanotechnology and microoptics, present major challenges for parts cleaning machines. On the one hand even
the tiniest particles must be removed
reliably, while on the other hand the
cleaning process must not damage
the surface. Weber Ultrasonics has
developed the 1 MHz Ultrasonic Micro Cleaning (UMC) module generator for these highly demanding cleaning tasks. The 19” megasonic generator has a power output of 250 and
500 watts and can easily be adapted
to meet individual cleaning requirements. The use of a modern control
system ensures the maximum consistency of all the process parameters,
high levels of efficiency and a very
compact design.
