Electrocoat rack stripping is a substantial cost to coaters, so it is imperative to use practices that reduce high energy requirements and identify techniques to minimize these costs that contribute to the electrical contact defects. ArticlePublished: 3/1/2011
The selection of a paint or powder finishing system depends on a number of factors, including the types of parts being coated, the required surface-treatment process, size and weight of the parts, sequence of process steps and the flow of material t... ArticlePublished: 2/22/2011
Electrocoating is a process by which electrically charged particles are deposited out of a water suspension to coat a conductive part. During the electrocoat process, paint is applied to a part at a certain film thickness, which is regulated by the ... ArticlePublished: 2/21/2011
Electrocoat products and processes continue to evolve, with development focused on lower energy use, very low VOC content and methods to reduce cost per applied square foot. The following is a primer on how a combination of new materials and good pr... ArticlePublished: 9/1/2007
