| TRAFFIC SAFETY MIRRORS A safe start to your journey – thanks to a clear view! FLABEG traffic mirrors are the embodiment of what is truly important in road traffic: a good view all round with no diversions and no distortions. Modern high-tech systems developed in-house ensure that our mirrors are bent with precision. The result is clear to see. Their truly optimal optical quality stands out. As does their safety, since the triple splinter protection varnish has integrated splinter netting that prevents the glass from shattering in the event of damage by binding the loose splinters. How practical! Advantages: • Simple assembly as a set: mirror support (spider), screw set, and pole bracket • Outstanding precision, even with extremely small tolerances • Splinter binding in the event of damage to the traffic mirror (TÜV B 9711 3122 001) • 5-year anti-corrosion guarantee thanks to a special varnish HYDROPHILIC TRAFFIC MIRRORS Vision protection for dull days – part of the package! The FLABEG range of mirrors has another special feature to offer: the hydrophilic coated traffic mirror which even on dull days and in rain does not fog over, obscuring visual facts. So, better vision whatever the weather is the promise this mirror makes to observers. And it won’t break it. Advantages: • Simple assembly as a set: mirror support (spider), screw set, and pole bracket • Outstanding precision, even with extremely small tolerances • Splinter binding in the event of damage to the traffic mirror (TÜV B 9711 3122 001) • 5-year anti-corrosion guarantee thanks to a special varnish • Improved vision in the wet with no fogging over thanks to a homogenous film • of water on the mirror’s surface Bent glass FLABEG offers convex and bent glass components as an alternative to instrument panel covers made from flat glass. These convex glass covers lend a “classic” look to the instruments and are specially suited to outdoor applications where glare and water stains are of concern. We produce custom round or rectangular shapes from clear or etched (anti-glare) glass. Optical thin-film coatings can also be applied to these products if anti-reflection or anti-fogging is also required. The edge finishes available can be found here. Technology: With special tools we can produce up to 50,000 units a week in an automated process for large-volume production runs in a state-of-the-art bending furnace. The manual process for small batches, non-repeat orders, and prototype manufacture is realized with minimal tooling and shorter lead times. Anti-fog coating Anti-fog coating consists of a hydrophilic polymer-based coating that improves visibility with transparent lenses, windows, and domed glass by preventing condensation from ambient moisture. The coating is liquid-based, and after application forms a permanent, transparent coating approximately 8.9 µm thick. The anti-fog coating can be applied to all substrates, typically glass and thermoplastics, using a variety of methods. These include dip coating, spin coating, spray coating, and flow coating. There are also anti-fog plastic films available for laminating to glass substrates which help to increase impact resistance. NGC helps determine the best possible combination of coatings and processes for customer-specific price and performance requirements. Applications: Anti-fog coatings are most frequently required for marine gauges, heavy construction equipment, automotive mirrors and instrument panels, aerospace glazing, night vision lenses for military applications, caravans and SUVs, and the optics industry. Hardcoating This is a polysiloxane-based liquid coating, which provides protection against abrasion and scratching for non-glass materials, such as injection-molded instrument panel covers made of polycarbonate. It can also be used to seal and protect products made of special glass that is prone to environmental degradation. Hardcoating can be combined with chemical anti-fog treatment in order to obtain a coating that shares both properties. The final coating thickness is approximately 10 µm. The application methods are the same as those used for anti-fog coating. Applications: The possible uses are similar to the anti-fog applications, with the additional option of treating opaque substrates, such as automotive trims, where abrasion resistance is desirable. UV coating The UV coating is a custom blended coating with a carrier material, such as the silicone hardcoating referred to above, which is loaded with UV absorbers in order to block the transmission of harmful ultraviolet rays. The coating can be applied to glass or plastic substrates. The application methods are the same as those used for anti-fog coating. Applications: Uses include solar energy applications, optical applications for outdoors, aerospace and military products, and any applications that are exposed to high levels of UV radiation. Metalization Metalized components are precision-fabricated first inside the factory and, if necessary, coated with a thin film of glass substrates that are 1.6 mm² small and 7 mm thin. The parts can be rectangular, round or odd-shaped. Applications: With the metalizing process, the parts are first coated with platinum and then fired to bond the platinum to the glass. Solder is then applied to the platinum surface to prepare it for installation into your panel housing. The glass-platinum-solder bond guarantees a hermetic seal that can also withstand harsh environmental conditions. |
