Digital tech and connected systems offer massive opportunities to improve metal pretreatment processes. The BONDERITE E-CO Flex controller is a powerful example. It’s able to monitor and manage up to six stages in the process, and can automatically adjust a broad range of different parameters. This makes it possible for manufacturers to increase quality and cut costs, while making important contributions to safety and sustainability.

BONDERITE E-CO Flex

Metal pretreatment is a key process for all kinds of industries – from making agricultural machinery through to manufacturing white goods, aluminum profiles and many more products. The E-CO Flex system from BONDERITE® controls and manages the main stages in this process to enhance and facilitate the use of chemical surface treatment technologies.

The equipment gathers data from measurement sensors and then uses that data to automatically adjust dosing pumps, electro valves, alarms or other parts of the process. It is able to manage factors including the pH level, conductivities and temperature. And E-CO Flex even has the capacity to control and manage six processes at the same time.
