Production Processes
We process parts up to 10 000 kg at maximum dimensions of 7 metres in length, 4 metres in width and 4 metres in height.
Technicoat applies surface coatings following these steps:
Surface Preparation
- Degreasing
- Gritblasting - using silica sand and aluminium oxide
- Phosphating using ZnCa and Mn to ensure increased anti-corrosion properties
- Base coat application to improve coating properties
Coating Process
- Disperse spray coating
- Electrostatic and tribo-electric application method
- Fluidised bed coating
- Application of powder to pre-heated surface
Curing
- Curing at temperatures from 150°C to 420 °C under computer controlled temperature-curing curve.
Quality Control
- Measuring of applied coat thickness (5 microns to -1000 microns)
- Quality checks to coat curing
- Quality checks to coat-substrate adhesion
