Plants for electroplating, surface treatment, water and exhaust air technology – planning, manufacturing and installation from a single source
ERO GmbH Anlagenbau
Herrnhut (02747), SaxonyNew on Amplifa
System provider for surface technology
ERO GmbH Anlagenbau is a system provider for surface technology plants and components based in Herrnhut, Saxony. Its product range includes electroplating plants as manual plants, mechanized plants and automatic lines (rail and overhead conveyor constructions), plastic electroplating plants for ABS plastics, electroless nickel plants including internal and selective nickel plating, anodizing/hard anodizing plants, blackening and phosphating plants, pickling and degreasing plants, KTL (cathodic dip painting) plants as well as spray and pre-treatment plants. In addition, the company supplies water treatment (eroIAKA, eroSOND), wastewater treatment (eroCLEAN) and air supply/exhaust systems made of flame-retardant polypropylene. Plants are automated with the company's own control and visualization systems (eroGAL, eroFLEX, eroTAKT, eroVIS-ProX) as well as the production planning system eroPPS. The team comprises engineers in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, water management, environmental protection and computer science, as well as mechanics, plastics technicians, electronics technicians and electricians; a laboratory and pilot plant serve process development. In addition to turnkey plants including the industrial building, support with BImSchG permitting, financing, service, remote maintenance and workpiece carrier design are offered. Customers come from electroplating, automotive supply, and the beverage and plastics industries.
