BST GmbH and Coatema Coating Machinery GmbH have today signed an important cooperation agreement. The aim is to jointly further develop process control systems for web-based production processes, such as those used in the manufacture of fuel cell components, lithium-ion electrodes, organic printed electronic materials, and other electrochemical systems.
The partnership focuses on integrating BST's networked inspection solutions - including the BST iPQ-Surface surface inspection system - into Coatema's technical center line. This will create a platform that enables realistic production testing under real-life conditions. Customers are invited to use the Coatema technical center line to further develop materials or to test optimization approaches for their own production under realistic conditions.
Another focus of the cooperation is on the continuous improvement of BST's inline quality assurance systems and their seamless integration into Coatema machines. In addition to mechanical aspects, the long-term goal of the collaboration is to achieve standardized electrical and software integration of BST systems, which are also compatible with Coatema's Industry 4.0 solutions.
Furthermore, the cooperation will be extended to customer support: Joint training directly on the systems will provide customers with even more comprehensive support and consultation.
