Applications of Coil Coatings and What makes Coil Coating different than other Painting Method?

Coil coating is a three-part liquid paint method that includes a topcoat, a backcoat, and primers. It comes in a wide selection of colours and finishes that may be applied to steel and aluminium coils using rollers. In just a minute, these can be cured and recoiled for delivery to end customers. Coil coating is a value-added procedure that is replacing traditional manufacturing methods. Percolated Sheet metal is being used to replace an old practise of painting unpainted bodies. When utilised in Nip coating or Dip coating, the amount of solvent employed is limited, which helps to reduce VOC emissions.

What makes Coil Coating different than other Painting Method?

Paints for coil coating are applied to a flat metal strip.

Cured at a high temperature in the oven, then quenched in cold water and recoiled.

For final use, coated coils are uncoiled, shaped, and cut.

Paint first, then build – everything is pre-painted.

When compared to other paint applications, this one has a relatively low DFT.

When compared to conventional paint application processes, over 100 percent of the paint is used during application, resulting in minimal paint loss.

As a result of the low solvent emission, there is a lower environmental impact.

As a result of the faster application, productivity is increased.

 

Applications of Coil Coatings:

A single coater and oven are available in one class.

These lines cater to markets that are primarily focused on consumer goods and feature products made of cold rolled steel (CRS), tin mill black plate (TMBP), and/or tin free steel (TFS). These marketplaces sell items like curtain rods, shelving, small appliance wrapping, and hot water heaters. These lines have a significant cost advantage over lines that operate two or more coaters and ovens in a single line, notwithstanding their limited product range.

 

Tandem lines are those that have two or more coaters.

They are capable of applying both a primer and a top coat in one pass. These lines cater mostly to the construction and appliance industries.

 

There are also a few lines with three coaters and three ovens.

They cater to a niche market of construction items that require priming, top coat, and barrier coats. These goods, as one might think, are exceptionally weather resistant and are commonly found in highly corrosive situations.
