Powder coating technology

The most popular of the powders in this area is black matt paint for furniture.

The powder coating is applied in several stages. Initially, the product is thoroughly cleaned from contamination, oxides and rust by mechanical means. For example, with the sandblasting. Also, the old cover should be removed. Then the surface must be degreased with a special tool, washed and dried.

The next stage is the painting. The powder is applied in an electric field. A special gun is needed to spray the powder.

It can be electrostatic or tribostatic. The first requires an external source that charges particles of powder. It needs to be added to the gun. In the second charge of particles occurs during their friction on the gun. You need to select a gun with a specialist, based on the features of painted products and workloads.

The product should be hung in the spraying chamber. And the painter should put powder on it with a gun. All equipment, products and painters must be well-grounded. This is the main condition for a successful coating.

After spraying the powder, the painted part is placed in a polymerization furnace. There the paint melts and solidifies.

In order to automate and simplify the whole process, automatic lines are installed in large production facilities. They do most of the work on their own, and the painter only controls and corrects them.
