The FTS service offering for surface finishing

FTS is specialised in fluorination with 25 years experience in the field. Our high level of competence is based on our highly qualified personnel and our equipment fleet, which is maintained to the latest technological standards by our in-house plant engineering department. Regular participation in research projects ensures that we keep abreast of state-of-the-art technology, and underlines our position as a development leader.

Process development
FTS changes the properties of plastics in such a way that specified functions are achieved in an optimal manner: adhesion, sliding, wetting and barrier formation are optimised. The components' dimensions and physical properties remain unchanged. FTS identifies the possibilities and also the limits of the fluorination process.

Tests and pre-production series
Each new treatment is subject to a series of tests, adjusting it to the product and defining the optimal parameters that are then saved as the formula. Our customers are welcome to participate in the testing process and to verify the new impact of the component in its intended use. The parameters used can be repeated reliably and will later be applied in series production.

Series production
FTS can fluorinate small and medium production series, even if parts are highly diverse:

  • Bulk material from 1 mm in size
  • Components in racks and transport units up 1.800 mm in size
  • Web material up to a width of 2.100 mm
