Powder Coating

A continuous, 2 metre/minute conveyorised system is one of the few systems in Australia to produce powder coated parts that comply with AS 4506 - a rigorous specification for powder coated steel products that need to withstand the harsh Australian outdoors.

6 Stage Zinc Phosphate Pretreatment

This pretreatment is at the heart of the coating's outdoor longevity. 240 individual spray nozzles deliver over 20,000 litres/hour of chemical pretreatment.

  • Alkaline cleaner - to remove oil and give a clean substrate.
  • Grain refiner - prepares the surface to accept coating
  • Zinc phosphate - creates a rust barrier. Far more successful than more commonly applied iron phosphate.
  • Overflowing water - excess phosphate is rinsed off, using reclaimed water from stage 6.
  • Passivation Rinse - seals the crystalline surface ready for powder coat adhesion.
  • De-ionised rinse - Removes remaining chemical residue prior to drying.

Powder Coating

Dual corona type electro static powder application guns operate from a common box feeding system to ensure all guns apply the same powder mix.
