How is Powder Coating Applied?
Powder coating application is a process where metal surfaces are coated using specialized equipment. The first step involves cleaning the surface from any dirt, grease, or oxide to prepare it for powder coating. Then, positively charged powder particles are sprayed onto the negatively charged metal surface using a powder coating gun, ensuring the paint adheres evenly and without forming a thick layer.
The curing stage allows the powder to fuse with the surface. Painted objects are heated in ovens at temperatures ranging from 180-200°C. At this temperature, the powder melts and integrates with the surface, creating a smooth, hard coating. This process maximizes the durability of the coating and its resistance to environmental factors.
The final stage, cooling, hardens the powder coating and makes it ready for use. This three-step process, assisted by a powder coating machine, guarantees high-quality standards and long-lasting performance for powder coatings. Powder coating is an ideal choice for industrial coatings, standing out with its aesthetic and protective properties.
