TOP 100 - Eloxalwerk Ludwigsburg (ELB) is Top Innovator 2020 ELB relies on individual, customer-specific solutions for all surfaces. From metal analysis in the ppm range, e.g. by means of X-ray fluorescence analysis, to laser microscopic surface analyses and a broadly positioned metallography, to... Read more
Say goodbye to wear and tear: up to 100 times longer life service for components
5. February 2019
Poor corrosion resistance and low hardness of metals such as magnesium can now be remedied with a new process: Laser beams are used to melt the high-performance plastic PEEK onto a component precisely where it is subjected to particular stress. Read more
Thin King Awards: Groundbreaking for lightweight construction, ELB recognized for new plastic coating process
2. January 2019
Eloxalwerk Ludwigsburg (ELB) is not actually a lightweight construction company, but the medium-sized company from Ludwigsburg-Neckarweihingen received the audience award at the first state-wide Thin King Awards of the Baden-Württemberg Lightweight Construction Agency. Read more
Lightweight construction made possible – through the systematic research work of ELB
1. January 2019
Thanks to the systematic research work carried out by ELB® - Eloxalwerk Ludwigsburg - on the protective armoring of corrosion-sensitive light metals, it is now possible to depict a component self-protection system that enables integrated and extended multi-material use. Read more
Targeted laser application of PEEK makes it wear-resistant
20. June 2018
Poor corrosion resistance and low hardness are the disadvantages of magnesium as a lightweight material. However, components made of magnesium and other metals can be specifically protected against corrosion and wear using an innovative process. Read more
