Powder Coating Equipment

Take a hands-on training class on powder coating tools Immerse yourself in all aspects of the industry with a hands-on class. These classes, provided by suppliers who are eager to sell powder coat equipment, can be an invaluable way to gain critical knowledge. You'll not only learn about pretreatment, powder application and all the powder coating tools and powder coating supplies you'll need, but you may also pick up insights into quality control, environmental concerns, job costing and marketing.

I recommend:  Powder-X Coating Systems offers classes in their own training facility.

Hire your own expert in powder coating systems A consultant with extensive experience in the powder coating industry can be a smart investment. Consultants can help you buy equipment and supplies, set up your shop, ensure compliance with EPA and OSHA regulations, help you price projects to maximize profit and even help train your employees.

I recommend:  Performance Consulting works with clients at their Illinois facility, over the phone or online.

Think outside the oven: portable power coat equipment Traditional powder coating uses ovens to cure the coating. This requires that items must both fit in the oven and be able to withstand the oven's temperature. New portable systems offer ways to get around these requirements, and may suit your needs better. Lightweight and relatively simple to use, they can coat almost any material and are significantly cheaper to operate. Portable systems can be up and running on site quickly. You can also use a portable system alongside your traditional powder coating system to expand your options.

I recommend:  The Xiom Corporation makes the Xiom 1000 and Xiom 5000 portable powder coating systems with many applications.
