What happens here
Cleaned and dried parts are conveyed to the powder coating booth. The parts are chemically treated to further aid rust prevention and paint adhesion. Inside the booth, an operator in a full protective suit manually sprays the yellow powder paint onto the parts. The powder itself is stored in a 'powder kitchen,' where it is fluidized by pumping air through the bottom, making it behave like a liquid. This fluidized powder is then pumped through hoses to the spray guns in the booth. Any oversprayed powder is collected and recycled, demonstrating efficient material use. After coating, the parts are hot, indicating they were pre-heated to aid powder adhesion.
Goal: Apply a durable powder coat finish to metal components.
