The scope of services from Dürr includes the complete paint shop for light to heavy truck cabs. The RoDip E flexible rotational dip process is used for pre-treatment and electro dip coating. This process is quite persuasive with its fewer runs and sags, less carry-over and almost total rinsing out of dirt particles – even in hard to reach cavities. This leads to less rework and a uniform coating. Optimized immersion and retrieval phases result in reduction of the dip tank saving space, material and energy.
Two type EcoRP 6F painting robots provide fully automatic exterior painting. Interior painting takes place at manual workstations which are delivered by Dürr along with the entire paint supply system. The robots are visualized and monitored by Dürr's EcoEMOS supervisory control technology as are the skid conveyors and the decentralized electrical engineering.
Eicher relies on Dürr's proven technology, and with it they reduce their unit costs. At the start 12 units per hour are to be painted – the extremely space-saving layout allows for an easy plant expansion to about 18 units per hour at any time. This allows the customer to quickly and easily respond to changing market demands.
The plant will go into operation for Eicher in June 2012. This order benefits Dürr in terms of its international network and its local presence in India. 75% of the order's volume will be taken care of by the local Dürr subsidiary.
Along with Dürr India, which is significantly involved in the construction of the paint shop for VECV, Dürr has a second powerful subsidiary in India with Schenck RoTec India. With approximately 200 employees, Schenck RoTec India, based in Noida near Delhi, specializes in balancing technology.
