Advanced Coating Technologies

At Great Dane Powder Coating, Inc., we are not only experts in durable, high quality powder coating, we work with some of the most advanced coating technologies available today.

Electrocoating is an exceptional alternative to powder coating, with some unique advantages when working with industrial parts runs.

Electrophoretic Coating

While powder coating is applied as an electrostatic spray, e-coating is a “wet” application where metal parts are immersed in a bath of paint and epoxy. Applying an electric current attracts the coating to the metal, after which the part is cured in an oven.

What advances does electrocoating offer over traditional powder coating?

• E-coating applies the coating uniformly to the most complex shapes, even those with hard-to-reach surfaces.
• Regardless of part configuration, coating thickness can be precisely controlled, with thin, precision coats possible.
• E-coating is great for high-production part runs, as many parts can be racked and immersed simultaneously.
• E-coating offers improved corrosion protection and can even be used as a base coat for powder coating. This approach delivers superior performance under the most challenging conditions.
• Electrophoretic coating is a green, environmentally friendly process where material utilization is close to 100%.

Electrocoating is very effective at providing corrosion protection and helps improve substrate durability.  At Great Dane Powder Coating, we work with you to determine the best coating technology for use with your production project. Call us today at 724-537-9709 to learn more.

Electrocoating is a Dynamically Expanding Market

E-coating technology represents a globally expanding market. If you’re looking for the latest coatings technology being adopted by the biggest companies around the world, electrophoretic coating is it.

The business intelligence report on ‘Global Electrocoating Market’ forecasts market size to deliver robust growth through 2028. The increase in electrocoated products across a wide range of industries is attributed to their high performance and durability, as well as being eco-friendly.

The global electrocoating market is projected to gain momentum over the next seven years in tandem with a rising demand for paints and coatings. In North America, electrocoating is slated to showcase a robust year-over-year growth rate through 2028, due to escalating transportation manufacturing, as well as growing demand for E-coating used for military products, security devices, home appliances, and construction commodities.
