In the electrostatic powder spray system operation, powder is siphoned, or pumped, from a feeder unit through a powder feed hose to the spray guns(s). Spectrum incorporate automated powder coat spray booth positioned in lie for quick color change and special applications. We equipped with advanced technology from ITW Gema from Switzerland which allow us to provide the best flexibility, efficiency, and quality guaranteed.
The electrostatic powder spray guns direct the flow of powder; control the pattern size, shape and density of the spray as it's released from the gun; charge the powder being sprayed and control the deposition rate and location of powder on the part. Spray guns can be either manual or automatic.
This electrostatic process encourages the powder to wrap around the part or deposit on the surfaces of the part that are not directly in the path of the gun.
Located after our primary guns, are manual hand spray guns. This give our applicators the ability to reinforce those areas that are more difficult to paint because of recesses or areas affected by Faraday Cage (the attraction of charges paint particles to the nearest surface). This gives our customer the best quality possible.
Spectrum can provide you with powder coating finishes from almost any supplier, including: PPG Duranar, TCI Powder Coating, Akzo-
After the paint has cured, material is inspected by our quality assurance team for color, gloss, mil thickness, appearance and multiple other performance specifications.
