Automotive industry

Fittings, screw connections and valves are used in various areas of the automotive industry, including in painting technology and in engine test benches.

In painting technology, fittings are used to ensure the smooth supply of paints and coating materials to systems. They enable the connection of paint supply systems and painting units, ensure precise dosing and ensure even distribution of paints, resulting in high-quality painting. Depending on the application, the components should be easy to clean, LABS-free or piggable, for example. The patented "Ecotube" development from Schwer Fittings guarantees these properties and ensures a transition with minimal dead space in the screw connection.

In engine test benches, fittings are used to connect fuel, air and cooling systems. High-precision fittings ensure that measurements and tests can be carried out under the most accurate conditions. The use of durable and high-quality components ensures the reliability of the test benches, which is crucial for obtaining accurate engine performance data. The selection of suitable materials ensures that wear measurement results are not falsified by leaching from the stainless steels.

To summarise, fittings, screw connections and valves are indispensable components in the automotive industry that not only improve the efficiency of production processes, but also ensure the quality and safety of the vehicles produced.
