Metal parts are used extensively in mechanical engineering. Applying a coating to machine parts increases corrosion resistance and thus extends the life of the machine. By doing so, you not only invest in the preservation of your machine(s), but also realize substantial cost savings over time.
Many machines experience corrosion at some point. There can be several causes for this. Intensive use can cause scratches or other minor damage that encourages rusting. This process is usually accelerated when condensation can occur in the production process.
Apart from the potential safety risks associated with this wear and tear, the continuity of the production process is also disrupted. After all, the machine must be temporarily taken out of production for maintenance or repair work, resulting in unnecessary lost sales.
With Korthals’ primers and topcoats, you no longer have to worry about the above. Together, these products form a
So many machine parts, so many uses. These are the most common use applications of metal coatings within mechanical engineering:
Within the process industry, think of the (petro)chemical industry, non-mechanical machine parts are generally used, such as valves, pipes, reaction boilers, sheet metal and casings. For optimal corrosion resistance and to beautify these objects, heat-resistant coatings can be applied.
In addition to these properties, Korthals also has coatings with a strong signaling function for this type of machine parts. For example, the temperature change paints change color as soon as these objects show weak spots and danger lurks.
You see: parts for machines have different uses. It is very important to choose the right coating for your product. Korthals is happy to advise you on the best coatings for your machine. Because of our dedication and high quality of our coatings, you can always count on a successful finish.
