What Is Powder Coating?

As the term implies, powder coating entails the controlled application of a dry powder to the work-piece. The application of the powder occurs via a process known as electrostatic spray deposition (ESD), which relies on a spray gun to distribute electrostatically charged powder particles on the surface of the substrate. Then, the coated parts enter a curing oven that produces a chemical reaction resulting in a high cross-link density of the molecules — and an extremely durable finish.

Surface preparation is a critical component of the powder coating process to ensure proper adhesion and a uniform coating distribution. Mechanical techniques such as shot peening and abrasive blasting can remove dirt, oil, lubricants, oxides, welding scale and other residues from the metal work-piece. In some situations, pre-treating the surface with chemicals will deliver better results.

What Are the Benefits of Implementing a Powder Coating System in Your Manufacturing Processes?

Powder coating can provide several advantages over painting and other commonly used finishing methods, including the following:nordson encore powder coating gun

  • Enhanced coating thickness: It’s possible to achieve a thicker coating application with powder instead of paint. Unlike paint, the powder does not run, drip or sag, which can ensure a more visually appealing finish.
  • Greater consistency of appearance: You’ll notice fewer differences between vertically and horizontally coated surfaces, which produces a more consistent look throughout the finished product.
  • Extra customization: The powder coating process is more amenable to the application of specialty finishes, offering greater flexibility to customize the work-piece’s appearance.
  • Quicker curing: Curing is much faster with powder coating than with other finishing techniques, helping to reduce overall production times.
  • More environmental friendliness: The powder coating process releases few, if any, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the atmosphere, which minimizes your environmental impact.
