Résumé : |
Automotive manufacturers can replace costly and time-consuming processes with plasma surface treatments. The technology facilitates production of strongly bonded composite materials and new material combinations. |
Note de contenu : |
- Modifying the surface characteristics of solid materials
- Reducing costs with lean production processes
- More reliable processes
- Surfaces must be clean
- Microfine cleaning for durable adhesive bonds
- Activation increases adhesion capacity
- Plasma treatment instead of primers
- Functional surface coatings
- Fig. 1 : The surface of the instrument panel blank is micro-cleaned and activated with plasma to ensure strong, long-time stable adhesion of the foamed thermoplastic front which is subsequently applied
- Fig. 2 : Plasma processes are often used to manfuacture the displays of driver assistance systems which are now a standard feature in almost all modern cars
- Fig. 3 : A plasma treatment enhances the durability of coatings and printed lettering on the control elements in the vehicle interior
- Fig. 4 : The plasma coatings also provide corrosion protection |
