The forthcoming Euro 7 emission standard will drastically reduce particulate matter levels for all new vehicles - regardless of the type of drive. As a result, brake systems are coming under increasing scrutiny. The solution: brake discs with low-wear hard coatings, because less wear means less particulate matter.
NAGEL is well prepared for this development. All the technologies for the environmentally friendly brake discs of the future are already available at the Nürtingen plant in the form of 2 prototype lines.
These include laser cells for coating using the high-speed LMD process and finishing on high-precision double-sided surface grinding machines. Fine dust emissions are reduced by 80% or more after machining. NAGEL supplies the entire process, i.e. the complete lines for coating and grinding with all peripheral equipment, e.g. for handling the coating powder, for extraction, cooling or rinsing agent preparation.
Also very important: precision systems for continuous quality control. When it comes to measuring, NAGEL can draw on a wealth of experience in fine and ultra-fine machining.
Not all coatings are the same. Different requirements call for individual coating thicknesses, coating compositions and surfaces. NAGEL's process development guarantees the right result for every purpose and can create coating systems on the two existing prototype lines and qualify them together with the customer. Thanks to the in-house development of abrasives, surface topographies can also be achieved in any desired quality.
The customer orientation continues with the automation. NAGEL supplies every conceivable configuration to increase productivity to the desired level, e.g. line linking or industrial robot solutions. Thanks to the modular design, the systems can be scaled very easily and quickly. Machine production, peripheral assembly and customisation are all carried out under one roof at the main factory. Customers receive a complete package "Made in Germany".
