And metal furniture is always a reliable and attractive option that designers love so much. Therefore, it is important to protect this material as much as possible so that the furniture serves for a long time and does not change its appearance.<\/p>\r\n<p>Today, the capabilities of metal furniture manufacturers are not limited to banal benches or flower stands. Modern technologies make it possible to make anything from metal, and in such a way that no one can tell the exact material from which the thing is made. The peculiarity of metal is that it should be additionally protected. For this, powder coatings are most often used. They do their job perfectly.<\/p>\r\n<p>That is why, it has already become so widespread when powder coating lines are immediately installed in production. After all, if they are correctly designed, they do not take up much space, but they significantly save the time and money of the enterprise. No need to look for contractors and overpay for their services. And you can completely customize your line to your own needs and get perfect coverage on all products.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Why not leave raw metal?<\/h3>\r\n<p>Yes, metal is a wonderful material, durable and reliable. However, any air has a certain degree of humidity. Most of the available metals are capable of reacting with water and oxygen and transforming it into corrosion, or more simply starting the rusting process. The sun&#8217;s heat and UV rays accelerate the reaction at times. Indeed, no one want to keep rusty furniture at home, which can ruin not only the mood, but also clothes. Therefore, it is worth paying attention to the fact that with the relative stability of the conditions in which the product will be used, we will never be able to place it in those where it will not come into action with atmospheric factors.<\/p>\r\n<p>It is for this that powder paint has long been used, which perfectly protects the metal from corrosion, is resistant to any impact, moreover, makes the surface smooth, uniform, and sometimes even adds a unique look, if you use, for example, textured coatings: metallic, antique or shagreen.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Powder paint is the obvious choice<\/h3>\r\n<p>There is no better alternative than powder paint. Among all coloring materials, it honestly won first place for the ability to combine good anti-corrosion and decorative properties.<\/p>\r\n<p>The powder coating is really long-lasting, it is scratch-resistant and fits into any interior. But it requires a number of processes that are performed on a specific powder coating line. The paint is sprayed onto the product from an electrostatic or tribostatic device, which charges paint particles to the opposite charge from what is on the product. Thus, a sufficient amount of paint is attracted like a magnet to the surface, while the other enters the recovery system. Then the product is polymerized &#8211; that is, it is heated to a high temperature and held for up to 10 minutes at the peak point, when the powder particles begin to melt, form a continuous film and, after decreasing the temperature, solidify into a perfect coating.<\/p>\r\n<p>So, the work takes place in several stages: cleaning and preparation, applying powder to the product, polymerization and solidification. Thus, creating the ideal coating requires solutions for cleaning metal from dirt, a spraying chamber with spray guns, a controller and a polymerization chamber. And if we are talking about mass production, then it is also needed a conveyor unit that quickly moves elements between stages.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Advantages of companies own powder coating line<\/h3>\r\n<p>The powder coating process does not require a lot of physical strength, but it does require good equipment and a well-designed conveyor line. Nowadays, there are many businesses that apply powder coating on products to order. But in fact, the equipment is completely available, that it is much easier to set up a line right in production than to figure out how to transport parts to a paint shop every time.<\/p>\r\n<p>Fortunately, companies that manufacture the equipment themselves are always able to create a project that suits your premises and will work as efficiently as possible within the framework that is allocated for it. In addition, compared with the possible costs of additional painting services, a one-time installation at your own enterprise will significantly save money, plus a good bonus will be the complete independence from the work of workers in another field.<\/p>\r\n<p>Companies that manufacture powder coating equipment are not only able to find the right size, but also teach workers how to operate it and provide regular maintenance. This all in a heap will speed up your production process.<\/p>\r\n<p>Also, the advantage is serial color and paint economy. For example, a company that manufactures metal office chairs may choose several colors for the season. This will create the possibility of waste-free production through recovery, and will allow manufacturers to control the dyeing process.<\/p>\r\n<p>This also applies to any other furniture, such as doors or other heavy metal structures.<\/p>\r\n<p>When deciding whether it is possible to install such equipment at your own enterprise, it is worth checking the following points:<\/p>\r\n<h4>Estimating enough free space<\/h4>\r\n<p>Since the work cycle must be continuous, all stages must be performed in succession. To carry out mass painting of the same type of parts, you need at least: a place for the cleaning stage (usually equipped with containers with solvents), a spray chamber (next to which it should be possible to install a ventilation system), a polymerization chamber, as well as a composition for preserving paint and finished products.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Temperature and humidity<\/h4>\r\n<p>Temperature indicators and stable humidity are one of the conditions for high-quality painting by electrostatic method. Therefore, the temperature should be in the range of 20-30 \u00b0 C, and the humidity should not exceed 50-60%.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Ventilation system<\/h4>\r\n<p>Normal air circulation is required to achieve the best coating properties, uniform application and a safe painting process. Ventilation systems must regulate the air supply and distill about 600 cubic meters of air per hour. It is also necessary for the normal storage of the coloring powder and the safety of the worker.<\/p>\r\n<p>It is also worth entrusting several workers to supervise the painting. Although this process can be completely automated, someone must monitor the health of the conveyor and all its components.<\/p>\r\n<p>The choice of devices for your enterprise already depends on what kind of result you want to get. It is better to design your line together with specialists who will help you to place all equipment ergonomically and correctly select its dimensions for the size of the products to be painted. The coating is created in about 30 minutes, while transportation to the paint shop can take many times longer. And the availability of paints, qualified specialists for training personnel to work with equipment and the equipment itself is simply amazing. Therefore, there is no doubt about the effectiveness of our own paint shop.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>House design is a thing that has long been included in the &#8220;must have&#8221; list when it comes to any&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":17004,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/smartline.in.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17003"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/smartline.in.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/smartline.in.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smartline.in.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smartline.in.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17003"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/smartline.in.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17003\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17006,"href":"https:\/\/smartline.in.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17003\/revisions\/17006"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smartline.in.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17004"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/smartline.in.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17003"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smartline.in.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17003"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smartline.in.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17003"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
