HENKEL to redefine manufacturing process at GIFA 2019

 Tuesday, June 18, 2019

Henkel is gearing up to display unique solutions for every step in die casting value chain at GIFA 2019. With expertise in important areas of die-casting as well as metalworking value chain, machining, casting, surface treatment, bonding, cleaning and impregnation. Henkel is repositioning as a brand that assist in cost reduction and streamlining manufacturing process. At the GIFA Henkel will exhibit its comprehensive offerings for the industry, including Bonderite cleaning, surface treatment to Loctite impregnation, bonding solution.

 

 

Recently Henkel introduced Bonderite L-CA CP 1030N, an agent that includes the company’s patented siloxane technology with a new approach to bio-stability. “With the additions of Bonderite L-CA CP 1030N and L-CA CP 799 a broad and comprehensive portfolio of cleaning and lubrication products can be offered for the sustainable and cost-effective manufacture of high-quality castings – from high- and low-pressure casting release agents to water-miscible metalworking fluids, liquid neutral and alkaline cleaners” says Martin Desinger, European Business Development Manager for Machining and Grinding Solutions at Henkel.

 

 

Besides this, Henkel will also offer a host of sustainable as well as process saving surface treatment solutions for high-quality application, involving the growing number of aluminium parts in e-mobility. Such as, the Bonderite M-NT 20140 etch passivation treatment lends aluminum components a durable surface resistance for excellent welding properties and high-performance adhesive bonding even after months of storage. Other thin-film light metal pretreatment solutions, such as Bonderite M-NT400 for aluminium or Bonderite M-NT 160/161 for magnesium, have a proven fit in saving energy and process water, maintenance efforts and waste compared to traditional pretreatment processes.

 

Henkel further developed the “2-step-process” for zinc-phosphating of multi-metal components with high aluminium content. The 2-step-process separates the pretreatment of galvanized and steel substrates in the Zn-phosphate-stage from the aluminium passivation, that takes place in the last process or post-rinse stage. In this way, the excessive sludge formation on aluminium known from layer-forming Zn-phosphate-processes is almost completely eliminated.

 

 

Other solutions on display will be Bonderite duaLCys process, an innovative solution for the machining and cleaning of casted parts and Loctite Impregnation Solutions, based on a full range of porosity-sealing resins and equipment and available at 16 service centres across Europe.

 

 

With extensive expertise in all key areas of the die-casting and metalworking value chain, Henkel is ideally positioned to partner with customers and help them reduce costs and streamline their manufacturing processes.
