Every can needs and end.! Beverage Can Ends are formed from a coil of aluminum, typically aluminum alloy 5182-H48, first forming process happens in a shell press to create plain aluminum shells and then shells transferred to another press that converts them to easy open ends. This press is known as a conversion press which forms an integral rivet button in the lid and scores the opening, while concurrently forming the tabs in another progressive die from a separate strip of aluminum 5182-H48.

This walkthrough of the powder coat shop offers valuable insights into the entire process. I'm particularly interested in the color swap and reclaim system—how efficient is it in terms of time? Having a multi-colored powder coat booth provides significant advantages, such as minimizing the facility's footprint and reducing capital expenditures. These innovations streamline operations and enhance cost-effectiveness, making them a worthwhile investment. If you have some more insight about it, please share your comments #powdercoating

Looking for an alternative to Molykote 44? Versilube G351 is one of Novagard’s lithium soap thickened greases designed to reduce friction and wear under loads, slow speeds, and variable environmental conditions. Formulated to conform with the specifications outlined in MIL L-15719A, G351 resists oxidation and degradation even under extreme conditions. It’s often used in closed systems, such as refrigerators or vacuum cleaners, where trouble-free service for the life of the ball bearing may be expected. Ideally suited for the bearings of conveyor systems, kiln pre-heater fans, oven fans, and textile dryers. See how G351 compares to DuPont Molykote 44 at https://lnkd.in/gqGz8Tpf. 

Some people will tell you, "It’s better to apply hot. It’s impossible to apply a second coat cool." The inability to apply a second coat of powder cool has zero to do with the science of powder coating. People claim you can't because they don't know how to do it correctly. At our Building A Successful Powder Coating Business Seminar & Hands-On Experience, we provide you with the knowledge and tools to properly run your powder coating business. Ready to learn more?

Here, the master batch is mixed with sulfur, preparing it for the manufacturing and curing process. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗦𝘂𝗹𝗳𝘂𝗿. It is the key ingredient that facilitates curing, also known as vulcanization, of rubber. The meticulous addition and thorough mixing of sulfur enhance the rubber's hardness and elasticity. 𝗧𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹. The introduction of sulfur makes temperature control paramount. An increase in temperature could lead to premature vulcanization, an outcome that must be carefully avoided. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗞𝗻𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿. It is in this context the Kneader is chosen as the preferred device for finalization. Esteemed for its ability to maintain the right temperature, it safeguards the master batch from exceeding vulcanization limits prematurely. 🔎 The physical properties of a high-performance rubber fender depend not only on the rubber compound's quality but also on the correct material handling and equipment choice during the mixing process.

When operating both the Banbury and the Kneader mixers, our skilled operators meticulously select the most suitable ✅❌ machine for each step, showcasing our commitment to producing high-quality fenders 🔝. Before the next step, coming soon, the finalization of our rubber compound undergoes the same series of steps in the rolling mill beneath the Kneader, including embossing for traceability. Curious to know more about high-performance fender manufacturing❓ Join us on a journey that explores the meticulous process at our Malaysian factory, from the initial stage of compounding to the moment our high-performance fenders are ready to protect people, vessels, and port infrastructures worldwide. #FenderExpert #FenderManufacturing #RubberFender #TrustedPartner #ShibataFenderTeam

What is powder coating and how does it work? Powder coating is a type of finish that can be applied to metal parts. Powder (that has an electrostatic charge) is applied to a grounded part via a spray gun. The coated part is then cured in a specialized oven using heat. While the powder cures, the pigments mixed with resins within the powder chemically react. Once the part comes out of the oven, it cools to create a hardened, durable coat.

#APS used GEMCO’s #Formulator to tackle the metal powder blending challenge. The customers’ products consisted of tungsten, nickel, and iron, which have different particle sizes and densities. They had a problem achieving a uniform and quality mix. While trying to print the material, they could see that the powder was different in color and could not get the right ratio of materials they planned. The goal was simple: to see if GEMCO’s formulator could improve blending and powder flow. APS used a 3CF Formulator, a versatile machine that can perform multiple functions in one unit. The process consisted of blending and drying. #Safety was a top priority. Since metal powders are combustible and an explosion hazard, APS took precautions. They purged the machine with nitrogen to prevent fire or explosions and followed all safety rules.
