Subject = engineering Description = Harley Engineering specialise in the design, manufacture and installation of welded and fabricated sheet metal products. Category = engineering
seeks to provide a clear understanding of all aspects of
powder coating
technology. The client help includes an insight into the formulation and manufacture of
powder coating
, both thermoplastic and thermosetting. Particular emphasis is given to coating selection (based on the anticipated requirements of the end user)
engineering
, outdoor exposure, corrosion resistance and costs benefits associated with
powder coating
. Application techniques are discussed in-depth from simple fluidised bed dipping to fully automated electrostatic systems. Health, safety and environmental isssues are covered for both the
manufacturing
and application processes used in
powder coating
. The course includes a half-day
engineering
practical session at a nearby
powder coating
installation, where there will be opportunities to apply coating powders, understand application parameters,and test
powder coating
in
product
ion conditions. Powder coating is by far the youngest of the surface finishing techniques in common use today. Powder coating is the technique of applying dry
engineering
paint to a part. The final cured
powder coating
is the same as a 2-pack wet paint. In normal wet painting such as house paints, the solids are in suspension in a liquid carrier, which must evaporate before the solid paint coating is produced. In
powder coating
, the powdered paint
engineering
may be applied by either of two techniques. There are two main types of
powder coating
available to the surface finisher: Thermoplastic
powder coating
that will remelt when heated, and
Thermosetting
powder coating
that will not remelt upon reheating. During the curing process (in the oven) a chemical cross-linking
engineering
reaction is triggered at the curing temperature and it is this chemical reaction which gives the
powder coating
many of its desirable properties. Harley
