Uses for E-Coating System

Our automotive e-coat systems have been widely installed throughout various automotive and general engineering sectors where a combination of corrosion protection and uniformity are very important when coating the part.

• Automotive OEM and Tier-1 Production

Excellent for high-volume production of chassis, suspension, engine bracket, and structural component parts; with the automated conveyor type systems (overhead monorail, power & free, and shuttle type) capable of producing between 500 and 5000 parts per shift are available giving steadily capable production rates.

• Safety Critical Parts

Brakes, steering, transferring cases, and fasteners should all be applied with a uniform primer coat prior to a powder or top-coat application; therefore, the e-coat system will not be able to prevent part-edge painting and will build a consistent coating assuring long-term durability and adherence to automotive corrosion certification requirements.

• Handling Mixed Parts
  

A custom rack and or fixturing will allow processing of mixed part sizes and geometries through the same e-coat system thereby optimizing the processing utilization of each processing line and reducing the time in which parts are not being processed.

• Body-In-White and Other Structural Assemblies
  

By using the electromigration/immersion process of e-coating, it will allow the coating to get into cavities and weld seams making it ideal for use in structural reinforcements and parts which are welded assemblies.
