Powder coating – komaxit

What is powder coating?

Powder coating is also known as komaxit. It is an innovative technology for applying dry paints to various surfaces, especially metal. The process begins with the preparation of the surface, which must be thoroughly cleaned and degreased. Preparation is key to ensuring perfect paint adhesion.

What you want to know about Powder Coating

How does powder coating work?

Powder coating is a method in which a powder coating is applied to a metal surface, which is then cured at temperatures between 150 and 200 °C. After preparation, the surface is treated with an electrostatic charge that allows the powder coating to adhere evenly. The paint, in the form of a fine powder, is applied using an electrostatic gun that charges the powder particles and allows them to adhere to an electrically grounded surface. This powder is a mixture of polymer resins, pigments and other ingredients that provide the desired properties of the coating.Once the surface is evenly covered with powder, it is placed in an oven where, at high temperatures (usually around 180-200 °C), the powder melts and forms a uniform, smooth and durable coating. This process is called curing and ensures that the paint adheres perfectly to the surface and forms a protective layer.

The resulting coating is not only aesthetically attractive, but also highly resistant to mechanical damage, corrosion, chemicals and weathering. Powder coating is therefore an ideal choice for industrial sectors, the automotive industry, construction and many other application areas where a high-quality and durable coating is required.This process involves several key steps:

Surface Preparation: The surface must be thoroughly cleaned and free of contaminants.
Powder Coating: The powder coating is applied electrostatically, ensuring even coverage.
Curing: The parts are heated in an oven, where the powder coating melts and creates a smooth, durable surface.

Applying powder coating is like putting a bulletproof coat on metal that not only protects but also looks great.

Benefits and Advantages

Powder coating offers a wide range of advantages:

Environmental friendliness

It does not contain solvents, which means minimal VOC (volatile organic compound) emissions.

Endurance

It creates a surface that is resistant to scratches, corrosion and chemicals.

Flexibility

It allows for quick color changes and is available in countless shades and textures.

Why choose powder coating?

Powder coating is ideal for machines, vehicles, windows, doors and many other objects. Its functional properties include high mechanical resistance and easy maintenance.

Powder coating is not only a modern and effective, but also an environmentally friendly solution for metal surface treatment. Its advantages are obvious: high durability, aesthetic quality and environmental friendliness.
