Gema Switzerland, based in Gossau SG, is an international supplier of electrostatic powder coating equipment. The products range from manual coating to fully automated powder coating. [ 1 ] Since 2012, Gema has been a part of the Graco Group , a worldwide supplier of liquid conveyance systems and components.
The D-gun atomises the powder feedstock into extremely small particles (80–95% of particles by total number are of size <100 nm). This means proper extraction facilities are required for inhalation safety purposes. Also isolation of the D-gun is recommended to avoid operators breathing in the dangerous dust and fumes. [14]
The origins of the cold spray process go back to the beginning of the 20th century, when it was developed and patented by Thurston. [3] The process was further investigated by in the 1950s by Rocheville [4] [3] and was re-discovered in the 1980s at the Institute of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics of the Russian Academy of Science [5] and developed as a coating technology.
As with their air-actuated cousins, powder-actuated guns have a muzzle safety interlock. If the muzzle is not pressed against a surface with sufficient force, the firing pin is blocked and cannot reach the load to fire it. This helps ensure that the gun does not discharge in an unsafe manner, causing the nail to become an unrestrained projectile.
Heat-sensitive carbon fiber tubes coated with a UV curable powder coating. Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder.Unlike conventional liquid paint, which is delivered via an evaporating solvent, powder coating is typically applied electrostatically and then cured under heat or with ultraviolet light.
Spray guns are aligned above the material and the guns are in motion to hit all the grooves of the material. The guns can be moved in a cycle, circle, or can be moved back and forth to apply the paint evenly across the material. Flatline systems are typically large and can paint doors, kitchen cabinets, and other plastic or wooden products.
Powder coating on glass requires specialized equipment. The biggest challenge is getting the powder to adhere to the glass surface since there is no natural electrostatic attraction like there is with different metals. A clean glass subsurface that will not interfere with the process is essential before beginning the powder coating procedure. [3]
A nail gun, nailgun or nailer is a form of hammer used to drive nails into wood or other materials. It is usually driven by compressed air , electromagnetism, highly flammable gases such as butane or propane, or, for powder-actuated tools, a small explosive charge. Nail guns have in many ways replaced hammers as tools of choice among builders.
