Innovation continues at a great pace in the area of plating automation. The latest development comes in the form of a fully portable automated electroplating system, able to be moved directly to a specific component for in situ plating.
Teknos developed hygienic coatings for use in public spaces where there is a lot of movement, and infections spread easily. Study results confirm that these coatings are both safe and effective.
A new category of durable, high-tech, all-epoxy coating is dramatically increasing traction and improving safety in a wide range of slip and fall prone areas such as production floors, warehouse space, loading docks, platforms, ramps, and more.
Pest control coatings are truly innovative. By targeting a crawling pest’s inability to climb a smooth surface, a physical barrier around a home can be created with a coating.
Singulus Technologies has developed a new layer system with titanium for sustainable coatings with the DECOLINE II production line. The innovative coating process reduces the necessary production steps and is, therefore, significantly more economical.
A line of powder coatings from Sherwin-Williams are now formulated with trailblazing polyester resins comprised of 25 percent post-consumer recycled plastic (rPET).
Internal combustion engines (ICEs) are falling out of fashion to make way for battery electric vehicles (BEVs). Many components, including battery packs and power conversion parts, should have coatings to increase the car’s longevity, and to help with the issues BEV batteries bring. Creative solutions are coming out of the industry to help maintain BEVs for longer.
