Our materials

DOTHERM and ISOCOS design, produce and supply insulation concepts - whether for full-surface insulation of the equipment or partial-surface, strip insulation with highly insulating materials in the intermediate areas. Thanks to our many years of experience and proven combinations of insulation materials, we can create the right concept for your application.

Engineering plastics with good properties, adapted to the respective application, ensure stable processes - From standard materials to components for extreme requirements.

The selection of suitable insulation materials has a decisive influence on the quality of the products manufactured as well as the service life and energy consumption of the production equipment. It is therefore important to rely on a partner who provides qualified advice, offers necessary interfaces for efficient data processing and supplies materials that reliably meet the required specifications.

Process optimization

Avoiding unscheduled machine downtime

The primary cause of machine downtime is the unexpected failure of specific components of a production plant. Machine downtime or machine failure causes high costs firstly due to the urgent need for spare parts and secondly due to “non-productivity”.

Process optimization

Electrical insulation in combination with mechanical requirements

When thermally and electrically insulating parts are used in the different procedures, choosing the right high-temperature material is key.

Cost/time savings

Energy loss

During thermal processes, contact between hot surfaces transfers heat into the machine. Likewise, hot tools radiate the temperature.

Process optimization, Cost/time savings

Heating process

To enable thermal processes to function, the tools or the entire system are heated to the required temperature. A process that ends after each period of heating is referred to as a dynamic process. A static process is one in which heating occurs at the start of a long production process and is readjusted by sensors if necessary.

Process optimization

Personal protection

In the case of thermal and electrical processes, special care must be taken to protecting the people working there. Added to the fact that process heat makes working at these types of machines intolerable, there is the danger of burns or electric shocks if safety measures are not observed.

Process reliability

Process reliability

Wear, deformations and breakages are critical phenomena in the production process. The function of quality-relevant components made from conventional materials can quickly deteriorate in very challenging application areas.

Extended service life

Thermal wear

As temperature increases, the mechanical strength of materials reduces. Wear increases at an exponential rate. Conventional materials are unable to withstand sudden and high temperature differences (thermal shock). In addition, dimensional stability is then frequently no longer guaranteed.
