FEATURE / AUTOMOTIVE ENGINEERING WITH PL ASMA
With Industry 4.0 in mind, the interoperable
system components (plasma control unit and generator) have been designed for use in intelligent
process lines. Connection is via EtherCAT/CAN
open gateways. This means that interfaces are defined in a way that allows them to be used for automation systems. They can also be integrated into
existing production lines and network infrastructures.
OPENAIR-PLASMA - A DRIVER FOR CHANGE
IN THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY
There is no question that mobility is changing,
and with it the demands made on the automotive
industry. With Openair-Plasma technology, Plasmatreat provides a process-reliable, effective and
environmentally friendly solution which raises surface pretreatments to a new level. At the same time,
the innovative technology satisfies current process
requirements for mass production in full, including
reproducible process flows, high system reliability,
low manufacturing tolerances, consistent quality
levels and data-assisted automation.
