Case Studies

The demands placed on components in the automotive industry are becoming more and more stringent - as a result, the requirements placed on manufacturers and suppliers in terms of cleanliness are also increasing.

In the course of the expansion of production at IWIS in Landsberg and the acquisition of new parts washing systems, project manager Henning Fritz and the person responsible for the parts washing systems also considered a new wastewater treatment system. Due to the good experiences with the company H2O GmbH at the location in Munich and a very successful, quality-improving test run in their own production, the decision to use a sustainable VACUDEST vacuum distillation system for this site as well was made.

In November 2013, AUDI AG opened its new production facilities in Münchsmünster. In the Industrial Park in Münchsmünster, located approximately 30 kilometres to the east of the main plant, an Audi competence centre was created for the production of bodywork structural parts made of die-cast aluminium, hot and cold formed pressed parts, as well as chassis components.

Sustainable and economical production - this was also the wish of the company ZINKPOWER Coating Schopsdorf in Saxony-Anhalt. The company specialises in the powder coating of steel, hot-dip galvanised steel and aluminium components. The company opted for a VACUDEST vacuum distillation system for the water treatment process.

Within the MAN Truck & Bus Group, the MAN site in Nuremberg is the international competence centre for the development, production and sale of diesel and gas engines with an output range from 37 kW to 1,397 kW (50 hp to 1,900 hp).
