The What, Why & How of Powder Coating
|
From ITW Gema
What is powder coating, why should I consider using it, and how will it work in my operation are questions that every finisher needs to be asking today. Briefly, these questions can be answered as follows: 1) powder is a dry, clean finish that gives a highly durable coating, 2) in the long run, powder will save you money, and 3) a powder coating system can be designed to meet just about any requirement your operation may have. The purpose of this booklet is to explain quickly and simply how powder coating delivers these highly desirable solutions to many finishing problems, and to provide you with a practical, worksheet approach, to help you decide if moving to powder is the right move for you. Over the past decade powder coating has been increasingly accepted as the preferred finishing process for the future. The reasons for this conversion from wet to dry can be attributed to three major forces: economy - Products & Services
Powder coating equipment is used to spray resin powder onto the surface of a pre-heated component, where the powder fuses and cures producing a protective coating.
