Powder coating - our technologies

In our paint shop in Płochocin we use proven technologies of painting and sandblasting in various combinations, which gives a guarantee of anti-corrosion protection for many years. The combination of powder coating and shot blasting or corundum blasting of steel or aluminium structures depends on various factors, including the type of workpiece, the degree of purity and the application and guarantee required
 
The most common corrosion protection method chosen by our customers is:
 
  • shot blasting or corundum blasting + powder coating,
  • shot blasting or corundum blasting + zinc or epoxy powder primer + painting for outdoor use,
  • hot-dip galvanizing + powder coating.
  • aluminium chromating + powder coating

Corrosion protection - effective protection against rust

Corrosion protection is used to extend the life of steel components and protect them from corrosion, thereby extending their service life. The negative effect of corrosion on steel causes that elements in prolonged contact with water gradually lose their technical parameters and become brittle. Therefore, it is important to provide rustproofing using proven methods such as powder coating and hot-dip galvanizing.

Powder coating, Płochocin

The preservation procedure is based on the application of electrified particles (40-100 um) of powder coat to the metal surface. The deposited powder layer is held on the surface of the coated piece by electrostatic forces. Then, the coated parts are heated to high temperatures reaching 140-200*C. During this process, the coat melts and polymerizes. The coating (depending on the type of coat and technology used) obtained as a result of powder coating is resistant to corrosion, chemicals, high temperature and mechanical damage.
 
The main advantages of the TECHNIKOR shop in Płochocin are:
 
  • no emissions of thinners and solvents to the environment,
  • the coatings obtained thanks to their thickness (60-80 um) perfectly mask any inaccuracies of mechanical processing.
  • speed of service and short lead times thanks to 3 paint lines.

 

Shot blasting (sandblasting)

A technological procedure that involves cleaning or profiling any surface with a jet of compressed air with the addition of hard sand or grit particles. The effect of sandblasting is similar to grinding, but the surface cleaned by sandblasting is usually much smoother and there are no problems with cleaning hard-to-reach corners, nooks, crannies and other inaccessible parts of steel structures.

Shot blasting (sandblasting) is one of the methods of removing damage from steel structures caused by atmospheric factors. This can be done with various types of abrasives. One type of sandblasting is shot blasting, which is the process of treating steel using a jet of compressed air or liquid and stainless-steel shot.

 

Zinc plating

It is a series of treatments to coat the surface of steel objects with a thin layer of zinc to protect them from corrosion caused by air and water. In the conditions of urban corrosive environment, zinc coating shows from several to over a dozen times higher corrosion resistance than ungalvanized steel.
