{"id":127,"count":3,"description":"We always plan pre-treatment systems on a customer-specific basis, depending on the component and material. The right choice of surface pre-treatment system creates the conditions for a high-quality and durable paint finish. Without pre-treatment, the paint will not adhere. As the requirements for pre-treatment systems are always individual, planning in advance is extremely important. We manufacture pre-treatment systems as individual components or as part of a complete painting line. In order to find the most economical solution together, we also consult with chemical suppliers and wastewater technology specialists.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.luterbach-ag.ch\/en\/where-can-you-find-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Request a quote now!<\/a>\r\n<h2>What is meant by pre-treatment?<\/h2>\r\nPre-treatment for the painting process is the process that takes place before the actual painting. This step is crucial to ensure that the paint adheres well and that the surface is clean, free of contaminants and ready for painting. Thorough pre-treatment is crucial for the quality and longevity of the paint finish. Surface preparation involves several steps.\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><strong>Cleaning<\/strong>: Pre-treatment by cleaning removes dust, grease, oil, rust, dirt or other contaminants from the surface of the workpiece by washing, chemical cleaning agents or other cleaning techniques.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Degreasing &amp; pickling<\/strong>: Degreasing is a particularly important step for greasy surfaces, as grease can impair the adhesion of the paint. Degreasing agents are used to clean the surface of oil and grease. It may also be necessary to integrate a pickling stage to remove the anodized layer or scale, for example.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Passivation<\/strong>: During passivation, a protective layer is applied to the surface to improve corrosion protection. The layer also helps the paint to adhere better.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Rinsing &amp; drying<\/strong>: After pre-treatment, it is extremely important to remove all residues of cleaning agents and chemicals from the workpiece and to dry the surface.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nPre-treatment systems are used in various industries such as the automotive, furniture, electronics and household appliance industries as well as in metal processing.\r\n<p>We manufacture various pre-treatment systems, including spray pre-treatment systems, dip pre-treatment systems and manual cleaning systems. We also offer customized pre- treatment systems that are tailored precisely to your needs.<\/p>","link":"https:\/\/www.luterbach-ag.ch\/en\/productgroup\/pre-treatment-systems\/","name":"Pre-treatment systems in Swiss quality","slug":"pre-treatment-systems","taxonomy":"productgroup","parent":0,"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.luterbach-ag.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productgroup\/127","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.luterbach-ag.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productgroup"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.luterbach-ag.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/productgroup"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.luterbach-ag.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/products?productgroup=127"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
