Dürr China hosted its Open House 2024, marking the return of Dürr’s Open House exhibition for customers in China after seven years. This year's theme, "Feel the Innovative Spirit of the Future”, celebrates a significant milestone in Dürr's 128-year history and highlights Dürr China's research and development initiatives.
This four-day Open House featured topics showcasing advancements in automotive painting and final assembly systems, as well as innovations in painting, gluing and environmental technology for various industries.
Dürr China has delivered over 100 turnkey projects for vehicle painting and final assembly in China by the end of 2023, underscoring its engagement with the local economy. Dürr's ‘local for local’ approach ensures projects for China are planned locally, with dedicated local contacts. The Dürr subsidiary has made significant investments, generating CNY 3.3 billion.
On November 12 and 13, the “Paint Shop of the Future” was presented. The Paint Shop of the Future breaks with traditional layouts by dividing industrial automotive painting into boxes or short process sections. This includes the integration of the EcoProBooth, which enables both interior and exterior painting of vehicle bodies within the same booth.
The EcoPaintJet Pro, which enables the fully automatic painting of cars in two colors without overspray, also contributes to this. With the EcoBell4 rotary atomizer, color change becomes a matter of seconds. This means faster cycle times, higher capacities and lower VOC emissions. Live demonstrations allowed participants to experience these innovative products firsthand.
On November 14, the focus shifted to NEXT.assembly of the future. Dürr showcased its customized turnkey solutions for the automotive final assembly sector, aligned with its future-oriented vision. NEXT.assembly of the future is not a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, it will be designed to meet each OEM’s requirements.
The final day of the Open House focused on industrial painting and gluing technologies highlighting the ready2integrate concept and the new EcoSupply P Core paint supply system. These products bring new flexibility and high efficiency to automated painting solutions in industrial sectors.
