Design Considerations for Powder Coating
When surface finishing a product with powder coating, there are some key design considerations that must be taken into account, such as: Tolerances & coating thickness: The thickness of a typical powder coat adds .006”-.012” of surface thickness, which can throw off some low-tolerance builds or through-hole diameters. The thickness of the powder coat should […]
chemical elements that affect the properties of steel casting
There are various chemical elements in steel, which make up hundreds of different grades, so what role do these chemical elements play in steel? Carbon (Carbon): The role of carbon in steel is a double-edged sword. As the carbon content increases, the yield point and tensile strength of the material will gradually increase, but […]
