- Preparation & Cleaning: The first stage is to put the item through our cleaning station. Specialized solutions and machinery is used to strip away oils, dirt, grease and other contaminants that could negatively affect adhesion of the powder coat finish.
- Painting Booth: Once the parts are properly cleaned, they’re transported to the painting booth. The booth holds two skilled paints who work side by side to powder coat the grounded parts.
- Dry Off Oven: After the finish has been applied, the parts are ready to be cured. While the product cures in the dry off oven the finish hardens and sets into a durable and visually appealing protective coating.
At Ameriblasts we utilize two main methods for powder coating application: electrostatic deposition (ESD) and fluidized bed powder coating). Either one of these applications will produce an even, hard finish that is more durable, long lasting and polished than traditional liquid paint.
Electrostatic Spray: This method requires a powder spray booth, powder feeder, electrostatic spray gun and a power unit. Powder material is distributed from the feeder into the powder coat gun. The gun electrically charges the powder allowing it to adhere to the electrically grounded surface of the metal item. Fluidized Bed Application: Unlike the ESD method, in fluidized bed powder coating preheated parts are dipped into the powder material.
