Dazzling Depth

May 1, 2005
No Comments
The versatility in powder coating effects and textures has come about over the past 10 years, changing the look of an appliance from simply a necessary piece of equipment to a focal point that makes a statement. Where liquid coatings once reigned because they could be applied without the heat temperatures necessary for curing powder coatings, thermosetting powders with lower temperature curing methods have helped powder coating expand to substrates beyond metal, including plastics and wood-based products.

Let the Math Drive the Mover

April 1, 2005
No Comments
You might ask why anyone would write an article about oscillators and reciprocators in the first place? Aren't fixed guns just as effective as oscillators and reciprocators? No, not in all cases. Aren't fixed guns less costly? Yes, the initial investment is less costly. While fixed guns are quite adequate for many applications, there can be issues. I will use a flat panel as an example. On a flat panel, gun-to-gun striping, as well as unevenly distributed single-gun fan patterns can produce non-uniform film build across the part causing uneven coverage, resulting in costly rejects and rework.
