Terwingo companies participated in the WIRE-2012 International Trade Fair (Dusseldorf, Germany).

The team in charge of the Advanced Wire Technologies (AWT) project, which involves the current construction of a plant specializing in the production of ultra-tensile strength sawing wire to be used in the fields of solar energy in the Lipetsk SEZ, participated in the exhibition’s business program as well as met and held negotiations with foreign partners concerning the construction of the plant.

Petroplasma, another Terwingo group company, was one of the six Russian companies with a booth at the  fair.

There Petroplasma demonstrated the latest development in plasma modification technology, specifically its IV generation machine used in wire rod surface cleaning. It also shared its progress concerning the applications of plasma processing technology in cleaning the outer and, most importantly, inner surfaces of pipes and of sheet and strip steel, as well as its applications in various manual and robotic tools and equipment used in the application of metal coatings.

Approximately 50 wire and rod production representatives from all over the world visited the Petroplasma booth. The development of plasma technology is of particular interest to potential clients as it allows them to replace the costly and environmentally harmful process of chemical pickling while still ensuring the high quality of cleaning and preparation of metal surfaces for further processing.
