Powder coating: the process...
Powder coating consists of applying fine particles of dry paint to a part. The final cured coating has the same appearance as a 2-pack wet paint.
At BWi Powder Coating, the powdered paint is applied by the powdered paint being electrostatically charged and sprayed onto the part.
The part is then placed in our powder coating oven and the powder particles melt and coalesce to form a continuous film.
Why powder coat?
Powder coating produces a high specification coating which is relatively hard, abrasion resistant (depending on the specification) and tough. Thin powder coatings can be bent but this is not recommended for exterior applications.
When powder coated items are properly installed ie without damaging the powder coating, if maintained regularly the coating should be more or less permanent. The coating, although not metallurgically bonded to the metal will not crack, chip or peel as with conventional paint films
Powder coating ensures a superior metal finish by applying uniform powder coverage even on the most complex products. This is then fused to the surface (cured) in a temperature-controlled environment.
The advantages of powder coating include:
- cost-effective, even for small batches or single items
- speedy turnaround
- corrosion resistance
- resistance to abrasion, acids, solvents, etc
- a consistent high quality finish without runs
- the powder coating process ensures total coverage, even on intricate shapes (eg complex engineering components)
- selection of finishes - clear, plain colour, metallic or textured
- protection against ultra-violet fading
- improved gloss and colour retention
- electrical insulation capabilities
- suitable for steel, aluminium, brass and zinc
- environmentally friendly (negligible release of VOCs) and is energy and material efficient
