In a world where quality and durability are paramount, selecting the right finish for an aluminium surface is more than a mere aesthetic choice. This article aims to clear the fog by providing a ...

The authors experiment with a resonant acoustic mixer as a method for dry powder coating. Efficient handling and transport of fine-particle powders can be difficult because of the highly cohesive ...

Powder coatings, substances that are decorative, protective, or both, are developed by applying a coating powder to a substrate and then fusing the coating into a continuous film by applying heat or ...

LAYRR’s high-speed surface engineering process modifies standard metal powders at the atomic level. Seen here is surface-level engineered metal powder shown under an electron microscope (Courtesy ...

Coating technologies for surface engineering encompass a broad array of methods designed to modify the outermost layers of materials to achieve desired mechanical, chemical, optical and tribological ...

Cold spray is a solid-state deposition technique whereby metallic or composite powder particles are entrained within a high-velocity gas jet and accelerated to supersonic speeds before impacting a ...

This article was originally published on MedicalDesign.com in May 2014. Applying a coating to a medical device or instrument can improve the device’s performance and reduce potential side effects. As ...

PreTect thread masking plugs from PennEngineering protect internal threads of self-clinching nuts and standoffs during paint and powder coating processes. The pre-installed silicone masking plugs ...
