Plan pretreatment, application, curing, material handling, and installation as one coordinated surface finishing system.
Discuss your finishing line
IMH FIELD PHOTOGRAPHY / MATERIAL HANDLING & INSTALLATIONA complete system is a strong fit for manufacturers with recurring part families, defined finish requirements, and enough production volume to coordinate multiple processes. It is also useful when disconnected batch operations create handling delays or inconsistent workflow. Our team can work with you to estimate start up and operating costs before beginning your project.
Powder coating is a strong fit for conductive metal parts that can tolerate the selected coating’s bake cycle, including steel frames, aluminum components, equipment guards, brackets, and electrical enclosures. It is especially useful for recurring part families that need a durable protective or decorative finish. Part geometry, grounding, pretreatment, and coating chemistry guide the final selection.
Liquid paint is a strong fit for large fabrications, assembled machinery, and parts requiring a specified liquid primer or topcoat. Heat-sensitive assemblies can benefit from a suitable ambient-cure coating when a conventional powder bake is impractical. Coating chemistry, substrate, appearance, exposure, and repair requirements determine the best process; some liquid coatings still require baking.
E-coat is a strong fit for conductive metal components with complex shapes, accessible recesses, and demanding corrosion requirements, such as automotive brackets, stamped assemblies, and agricultural equipment components. Parts must accept immersion, drain properly, make reliable electrical contact, and tolerate the selected bake cycle. E-coat is often used as a primer beneath a compatible powder or liquid topcoat.
Bring the largest part envelope and weight, production mix, target throughput, substrate, coating specification, available footprint, and utility information. Using this information, our team can design your layout around your distinct manufacturing needs, as well as provide cost, timeline, and ROI estimates as needed to inform your decision.
Not all finishing lines are the same. Based on your product, demand, layout requirements, and budget, we can tailor each element of your finishing line to best suit your company's needs.
