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 …
Four Basic Pieces of Equipment for Electrostatic Spray Systems
Most powder coating electrostatic spray systems are comprised of four basic pieces of equipment – the feed hopper, electrostatic powder spray gun, electrostatic power source, and powder recovery unit. A discussion of each piece, its interactions with other components, and the various styles available is necessary to understand the functional operation of this process. Powder is supplied to the spray gun from the powder feeder unit. Usually powder material stored in this unit is either fluidized or gravity-fed to aRead More …
What is Powder Coating Line
Powder Coating Line – Powder coat line – Powder spray both – Spraying gun – Curing oven Spraying both A powder booth is an enclosure that is designed to contain the powder application process. A recovery system is attached to the powder booth shell. The recovery system uses a fan to pull air into the booth and prevent the oversprayed powder from migrating out of the enclosure. Spraying gun The spray gun is designed to impart an electrostatic charge to theRead More …
