Without proper maintenance, equipment wears down quickly. When machinery needs repair, schedules and operations can be adversely affected. However, metal surface reconditioning of equipment reduces downtime and maximizes its lifespan. The following are reconditioning processes to consider for optimizing the effectiveness and longevity of your machinery.
Sandblasting
Sandblasting is the ideal solution for removing dirt, grime, and rust from metal surfaces. It efficiently blasts fine grains of sand through a nozzle directly onto a metal surface at high speeds, ensuring a quick and thorough cleaning process that is more efficient than other cleaning applications.
Electrostatic Painting
Electrostatic painting restores metal surfaces to their original appearance while inhibiting damaging rust. The electrostatic painting process involves applying a negative electric charge to the paint before it is sprayed. The negatively charged paint particles spread out evenly, becoming like magnets and attracted to the positively charged surface. Electrostatic painting produces less waste than other painting processes because the paint particles are pulled from the air onto the surface.
Powder Coating
An alternative to traditional paint, powder coating is a dry finishing process that provides a high level of protection for your metal surfaces. Its extremely durable finish, double the thickness of standard paint, ensures long-lasting protection. The powder is applied using an electrostatic spray deposition (ESD) on a metal surface, and it is pliable enough to meld onto the surface it’s applied.
