Primary Methods for Preventing Rust on Metal Parts
1. Protective Coatings Paints/Powder Coatings: Create a physical barrier against moisture and oxygen. Epoxy, polyurethane, and enamel paints are common. Powder coating offers superior durability. Metal Plating: Electroplating with corrosion-resistant metals: Zinc (Galvanizing): Sacrificial anode protection for steel. Nickel/Chrome: Decorative and corrosion-resistant. Cadmium: Used in aerospace/military (toxic, requires care). Anodizing (Aluminum): Forms a thick, protective oxide layer via electrolysis. 2. Barrier Films & […]
Enhanced Cutting in Harsh Environments
The first and probably the best benefit of CNC plasma cutting is the better and higher quality of cuts. Unlike laser cutters, which require clean and controlled environments, plasma cutting performs well in rugged industrial settings. CNC plasma cutters function efficiently and effectively in dusty, humid, or high-temperature conditions; ideal for field applications such as […]
