UV Powder coating Drying Time is under One minute

Yes its true UV powder coating is the next game changer in the powder coating industry where you can dry UV powder in less than a minute compared to traditional powder coating which takes between 20 -25 minutes to dry. A UV-cured powder system can produce more material in a given period of time. This results in an increased operating capacity, reduced WIP inventory, lower cost of quality, less energy usage, and increased profits per hour. All of these factors lead to a higher ROI. UV-curable powder coating is faster and uses less energy than other finishing processes. This key benefit allows you to coat more products in less time while using less energy without damaging the substrate. This increases productivity and reduces running costs.

UV powder is  safe to use, and can easily be recycled. Manufacturing and use of UV-curable powder coatings do not require any permits, special air handling, operator breathing devices or flammability restrictions or controls.Material handling and cleanup are very simple and easy. A spill can be swept up or vacuumed with no residual damage to equipment or property. Leftover powder can also be recycled. UV powder coating technology can be used in automotive components, industrial products, steel furniture, plastic parts, composites etc.

Things to Consider in a UV Powder Coating Line

Over the years paints are formulated to either cure at ambient temperature or at elevated temperatures. This depends on the paint formulation. Paints which are cured in convection oven normally take between 20-30 minutes and the same paints are cured within 3-4 minutes in IR ovens. When you use UV powder system along with UV powder it takes less than a minute. This reduces your energy consumption drastically in your powder coating line/plant. This becomes a game changer. UV powder is generally followed by IR gel zone .UV technology can be used on metal, plastics, wood MDF, composites etc. The finish achieved with UV powder with far more superior compared to traditional powder coating. UV lighting technology together with the right paint formulation could offer the potential to expand to to other industries.The industries that can benefit using UV powder coating technology include automotive components, all types of steel furniture, utility vehicles, aerospace, industrial products, healthcare and many more. Prism surface coatings is a turnkey system supplier of complete UV powder coating line and systems. Prism can also supply you the UV powder.

Best Paint Spray Gun to Paint Steel Wheels-Magic Painter Gun

Yes the ideal paint gun to paint steel wheels is the magic painter gun. The magic painter gun is a gun that does not use compressed air and saves upto 60% paint. The special feature of this gun apart from the paint savings is its penetration capability to reach into grooves and crevices of the wheel which otherwise cannot be reached by electrostatic guns because of Faraday cage effect due to consistent grounding is required. Also paint resistivity has to be maintained. The cost of maintaining electrostatic guns are also very expensive and there is a risk of operator safety. With the magic painter gun no such earthing or grounding is required and it can penetrate to all the grooves and crevices of the wheel. We have supplied to wheel companies worldwide and they are successful in saving huge amounts of paint and money. The magic painter gun gives a transfer efficiency between 85-90%.

What is the Magic Painter Gun and Areas of application?

Magic painter gun is a gun that sprays paint without the use of compressed air and saves you upto 60% paint due to no over spray. It gives you a transfer efficiency of 85-90% and spray paint at 0.6 bar pressure which reduces paint and energy costs drastically. Magic Painter also supplies warm and dry dehumidified air  and there is no presence of oil and moisture which is ideal for painting. Due to this you a get a unmatched finish on your product. Magic painter gun replaces all conventional paint spray gun technologies in the market which has been the same for over 100 years.

Unmatched Advantages of the Magic Painter Gun:

  1. Gives you transfer efficiency of 85-90%
  2. Saves you 50% energy costs due to elimination of compressed air  and the usage capacity of compressed air reduces.Compressor maintenance costs also reduces.
  3. Saves you paint upto 60% and 10%-15% more paint savings than electrostatic guns.Paint fog and over spray is eliminated.
  4. Reduces VOC in your paint shop and increases operator safety. Helps control pollution levels and the environment.Cleaner and greener environment.
  5. Reduces your paint sludge separation treatment chemicals and water consumption due to high paint savings.
  6. As  compressed air is eliminated , issues faced with compressor such as oil, moisture and humidity is eliminated which in turns gives you better finish
  7. reaches difficult parts of the component such as grooves and crevices which cannot be penetrated by electrostatic guns due to Faraday cage effect
  8. No complex electrostatic procedures are used in magic painter gun as there is no earthing and charging required unlike electrostatic guns. This increases operator safety
  9. Magic painter gun also quickens drying time in the oven  as it supplies warm air during painting.
  10. reduces the amount of air intake in the booth and it can also reduce the blower capacity required in the booth.
  11. Can turn your wet paint booth into dry booth due to low paint consumption and high paint savings.
  12. Millions of dollars are spent on paint , with this technology you can achieve faster ROI and reduce running costs which can increase you PROFIT.
