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<\/strong> over time. <\/p>\n\n

Anti-corrosion is a must<\/h2>\n\n

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. <\/p>\n\n

Apart from the potential safety risks<\/a> 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. <\/p>\n\n

With Korthals’ primers<\/a> and topcoats<\/a>, you no longer have to worry about the above. Together, these products form a powerful anti-corrosion system<\/strong> on machines and machine parts. The coating system forms a protective layer<\/strong> between the metal<\/a> of which the machine is made and the environment. <\/p>\n\n

Coatings for various machine applications<\/h2>\n\n

So many machine parts, so many uses. These are the most common use applications of metal coatings within mechanical engineering: <\/p>\n\n
