Testing Methods for Powder Coating Application Process
TESTING METHODS FOR POWDER COATING Testing methods are designed for two purposes: 1. Performance reliability ; 2. Quality control (1) GLOSS TEST (ASTM D523) Test coated flat panel with Gardener 60 degree meter. Coating shall not vary + or – 5% from data sheet requirements on each material supplied. (2) BENDING TEST (ASTM D522) Coating on .036 inch thick phosphated steel panel shall withstand 180 degree bend over 1/4″ mandrel. No crazing or loss of adhesion and finish at the bend beRead More …
Powder Coating Storage And Handling
Powder Coating Storage And Handling Powder, like any coating material must be shipped, inventoried, and handled in its journey from the powder coating manufacturer to the point of application. Manufacturers’ recommendations, procedures, and cautions should be followed. Although various powders may have specific requirements, some universal rules apply. It is important that powders should always be: Protected from excess heat; Protected from humidity and water; Protected from contamination with foreign materials, such as other powders, dust, dirt, etc. These areRead More …
Quality Control of Powder Coating
Quality Control Of Powder Coating Quality control in the finishing industry requires attention to more than just coating. In fact, the majority of problems occur for reasons other than coating faults. To assure quality where coating may be a factor, statistical process control (SPC) can be a useful tool. SPC SPC involves measuring the powder coating process using statistical methods and improving it to reduce variation at desired process levels. SPC can also help determine the difference between typical variationRead More …

Environmental advantages of powder coating mean substantial savings
Today’s environmental concerns are a major economic factor in the selection or operation of a finishing system. The environmental advantages of powder coating-no VOC problems and essentially no waste- can mean substantial savings in finishing costs. As energy costs continue to rise, other advantages of powder coating become even more important. Without the need for solvent recovery, complex filtering systems are not required, and less air has to be moved, heated, or cooled, which can be a significant cost saving.Read More …
Powder Coating Equipment Advancements Increase Production Capacity
Powder Coating Equipment Improvements in powder coating materials have brought advancements in application and recovery equipment technology. They are aimed at reducing the cost of powder coating systems, making the powder coating operation more efficient, and expanding to new production requirements and part configurations. Overall material efficiency of a powder coating system commonly exceeds 95%. Equipment engineers have made considerable progress in improving first-pass transfer efficiency and in better part coverage to eliminate manual touch-up from automated systems. Improved sprayRead More …
Powder Coating Materials Today And Tomorrow
Today, the manufacturers of powder coating materials have solved problems of the past, and ongoing research and technology continue to break down the few remaining barriers to powder coating. Powder Coating Materials The most significant material breakthrough has been the development of engineered resin systems designed to meet the diverse and specific needs of the metal finishing industry. Epoxy resins were used almost exclusively during the early years of thermosetting powder coating and are still in broad use today. TheRead More …
