Automotive
With more than 50 years of experience in the automotive sector, we know exactly what is important as a supplier to the car industry. Whether you require functional or decorative coatings, powder coatings or CDP (cataphoretic dip painting) – Holzapfel is the ideal partner when it comes to electroplating and surface finishing processes.
Convince yourself of our range of services with these concrete examples:
Flexcor pliable coating
- Pliable zinc-nickel alloy coating flexcor
Flexcor is a pliable and workable zinc-nickel alloy coating. With flexcor, bending and forming processes can also be carried out after the coating has been applied. Pipelines, oil and fuel lines etc. can thus be coated in a stretched state. Blocking and additional handling is no longer required, such as for automotive companies and their suppliers (e.g. pipelines, fastening systems such as large sleeves, bolts, stamped or flanged sheet metal parts) and especially for the hydraulics industry (e.g. oil and fuel lines).
Starter button made of copper-nickel-chrome
- starter button with laser inscription
Copper-nickel-chrome is the right coating system when good corrosion protection and excellent optics are equally important. The coating is particularly useful for the automotive industry (interior, exterior, e.g. start-stop systems), the lifestyle sector (e.g. household appliances, leisure time and sports equipment, furniture, sanitary fittings, office products and equipment), the electrical industry (e.g. electrical appliances, lamps), medical devices, precision engineering, optics, cameras and also bicycles.
Solutions for sophisticated sintered metals
- Holzapfel SinterSurfaceSolutions
With Sinter Surface Solutions, impregnation and coating come directly from one single source. The surface protection especially for sintered metals is used, for example, in the automotive industry where particularly high-grade corrosion protection is required. Sinter Surface Solutions are used for applications such as transmission parts (rings, hubs, clutch bodies), in the engine compartment (cogwheels, bearing covers, chain pulleys), in the steering system (plungers, guides) and for many other purposes.
Continuous improvements for the automobile industry
As a founding member of the German Fachverband industrieller Beschichter (Professional Association of Industrial Coaters) FIB, we are involved in focusing the interests of the automotive and the metal finishing industries and thereby constantly setting new standards for cooperation between the two sectors.
Even in the unlikely case of an emergency, despite refined fire detection technology and multiple safety measures, the “safety net” of the FIB helps to provide reliable emergency provisions.
