Erzinger Equipment and Total Finishing Systems have entered into an exclusive and strategic partnership with the intent to expand both companies’ footprints in North America, especially in the powder and ecoat markets.

With more than 40 years in the market, Erzinger Equipment is Brazil’s largest national manufacturer for equipment for surface pretreatment systems, electrostatic powder and ecoat.

Together, through the partnership, the companies aim to have the ability to take on projects of any scale in North America. A major focus is on the transportation, agriculture and aerospace markets for coating systems.

“We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to co-brand with Erzinger Equipment and expand our presence in North America,” says Fabian Cardenas, Total Finishing Systems’ general manager. “Our customers will now have access to more coating solutions as we bring an ecoat option into our portfolio.”

Hexavalent-Chromium-Free Aluminum Sacrificial Paint Validation

Hexavalent chromium is a known carcinogen, repro-toxin and mutagen. Its elimination is of high importance to the aerospace industry, which has struggled to find high performing alternatives. Legacy aluminum sacrificial paints have traditionally utilized hexavalent chromium to prevent corrosion and coatings which are equal to or better than have been difficult. This second of two papers discusses the hexavalent-chromium-free process from the user point-of-view in terms of the process validation work by Rolls Royce Corporation.
