Industrial Coatings with Exceptional Value

Henkel Autophoretic^® Coating Chemicals (ACC^®) 900 Series of epoxy resin-based coatings offer significant productivity and environmental benefits, while delivering improved finish appearance and superior corrosion resistance on ferrous substrates. In addition, the autodeposition coating process behind the ACC^® 900 Series greatly simplifies operations by removing manufacturing steps, which translates into shorter cycle times, lower operating costs and improved productivity. Applicators confirm the ACC^® 900 Series is an excellent complement to the existing family of Autophoretic^® coating products from Henkel that are used globally in automotive and general industrial metal coating applications.

Microwave Atmospheric Plasma Technology

Dana Corporation is developing a revolutionary microwave technology with the potential to radically change the future of metal heat-treating. Dana's AtmoPlas^™ technology generates a microwave-absorbing plasma that surrounds the part to be heated. As the plasma absorbs the microwaves, the temperature rises and rapidly heats the part.

Operating at atmospheric pressure, AtmoPlas^™ technology is fast, efficient, versatile, and cost-effective, and delivers quality, uniformity, and control. Examples of practical applications include carburizing, brazing, hardening, and sintering.
