Alongside our processing capabilities we work with OEM and Tier 1 companies in international research projects, developing and improving coating and joining systems.
We have developed our INTRICOAT service – a precise, defect-free, intricate powder coating system with masking for low volume machined components.
•Masking schemes are prepared by our expert team on CAD, in discussion with you
•Masking and coating carried out in a laboratory style room with conscientious attention to detail and quality control
Your machined components have been expertly designed and engineered. They need a beautiful, durable finish. They need INTRICOAT.
We are also specialists in cleaning and conversion coatings for aluminium, including TiZr passivation.
TiZr (titanium zirconium) passivation creates a stable surface which will allow bonding and welding processes to deliver repeatable, strong, durable adhesive bonds. This conversion coating process also provides a stable base for powder coating and offers additional protection against corrosion.
As the first metal treatment provider in the UK to install TiZr as a chrome-free passivation process (since 2001), Powdertech Surface Science is the most experienced outsource TiZr pre-treatment provider in the country with an unrivalled body of knowledge. We use the latest Gardobond® systems for TiZr passivation and apply it to aluminium components (cast, extruded or formed) to enhance adhesive durability for metal-to-metal bonding and welding.
