Industrial powder enamel application equipment (Frame)

<body> <h1>Powder enamel equipment</h1> <p>As shown in <a target="_top" href="Benefits.html">our presentation</a>, powder enameling has many benefits compared to traditional wet enameling.</p> <p>Beneath some pictures of powder enameling systems for respectively cookers & boilers.</p> <p><a target="_top" href="../../../Plant/Cookers/Index.htm"> <img border="0" src="../../../../../ALL/images/Enameling/bahgat.jpg" width="315" height="200" alt="Powder enameling system for cookers"></a> <a target="_top" href="../../../Plant/Boilers/Frames.htm"> <img border="0" src="../../../../../ALL/images/Enameling/Kwikot%2002.jpg" width="290" height="200" alt="Powder enameling system for boilers"></a> </p> <p>The core of every powder enamel system is the application equipment. The type of application equipment, their set-up and utilized parameters determine the first pass transfer efficiency of the dry powder enameling processes. This transfer efficiency is very important, because (although powder enameling may achieve almost 100% material utilization) powder enamel tend to lose it electrostatic properties when recycled too often or over long distances. </p> <p>Studies showed that recycled powder is hydroscopic & therefore more sensitive for humidity then virgin powder and damp powder has a poor adhesion to the metal substrate. For this reason powder enameling systems are sometimes placed in a clean room with closed-loop air-conditioning system to maintain constant temperature and relative humidity.</p> <p> <img border="0" src="../../../../../ALL/images/Enameling/powder%20recyling%20process.JPG" alt="Powder recycling process at Nordson Horizon booth" width="363" height="196"></p> <p>The picture above shows the complete powder cycle at a modern powder enameling system; from automatic enamel supply from a drum unloader, sieving/mixing/fluidizing in a rotary sieve, automatic spraying, recovery of oversprayed powder with cartridge filters and recycling back into the rotary sieve via a magnetic separator.</p> <p>Leading manufacturers of powder enamel systems (in alphabetic order) are : Eisenman, ITW Gema, Nordson, VET & Wagner-Itep.</p> <p>Ditmer Trading & Consulting B.V. provides <a href="../../../../Services/Professional%20Services.htm">independent consultancy</a> to the international enameling industry. <a target="_self" href="../../../../DTC/Contact%20details.htm">Click here for our contact details</a></p> <p>Below two video's showing the electrostatic application of powder enamel inside respectively a baking oven and large solar boilers<br><br> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/hldc4eyUE44&hl=nl&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/hldc4eyUE44&hl=nl&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> <br><br> <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/NEnlLASkJUs&color1=0xb1b1b1&color2=0xcfcfcf&hl=nl_NL&feature=player_detailpage&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/NEnlLASkJUs&color1=0xb1b1b1&color2=0xcfcfcf&hl=nl_NL&feature=player_detailpage&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="385"></embed></object> </p> <p> </p> <p>Related topics : </p> <ul> <li><a href="Benefits.html">Benefits of powder enameling</a></li> <li><a href="../Calculation%20of%20enamel%20consumption.htm">Calculation enamel consumption</a></li> <li>Calculation of transfer efficiency</li> <li>Recommended ambient conditions for powder enameling </li> <li><a href="../../../glossary_for_industrial_enameling.htm">PE glossary</a></li> <li><a href="../../../Defects/Testing%20powder%20enamel.htm">Testing powder enamels</a> </li> <li><a href="../../../Defects/Typical%20enameling%20defects.htm">Typical powder enameling defects</a> </li> </ul> <script type="text/javascript"> var $zoho=$zoho || {};$zoho.salesiq = $zoho.salesiq || {widgetcode:"9fdccf9bb5735b43005fb79911b403c99ed37399c5fd4a63530cfd161c2c6d6cf1bdeceb76154be6aa491d3f75f3c6b992bfd2045cbc83c765e85ec0ea2b18a2", values:{},ready:function(){}};var d=document;s=d.createElement("script");s.type="text/javascript";s.id="zsiqscript";s.defer=true;s.src="https://salesiq.zoho.eu/widget";t=d.getElementsByTagName("script")[0];t.parentNode.insertBefore(s,t);d.write("<div id='zsiqwidget'></div>"); </script> <script type="text/javascript" src='https://crm.zoho.eu/crm/javascript/zcga.js'> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src='https://forms.zoho.eu/js/zf_gclid.js'></script> </body>
