Engineered Coating Unsticks Food Processing Operation

Sticky glues and adhesives as well as wear and abrasion are particularly common threats to machine reliability, and they can halt production as workers clean and repair the damage. Over time, these interruptions can significantly impact the bottom line.

Engineered Coatings Give Old Parts New Life

When machine parts wear out, they can hurt the plant’s productivity and costs. While replacing these parts may be appropriate, MRO professionals should consider refurbishing them with the help of engineered surface enhancement coatings.

Engineered Coatings Optimize Powder and Bulk Solids Equipment Output

In the powder bulk solids industry, precise metering and efficient material feeding are critical. However, several conditions can hinder machine performance and affect lifetime.

Engineered Coatings Protect Valves in Harsh Conditions of Oil and Gas Facilities

As oil and gas facilities move to more remote locations with extreme conditions, any equipment downtime due to parts failure can be costly.

Video - Engineered Coatings for Food Processing

Throughout the food processing process, a variety of conditions can affect your equipment’s performance and reliability.

To Keep Mining Operations Running, Protect Valves With Engineered Coatings

Mining and mineral processing facilities present a host of threats that can affect valve reliability and uptime. Knife gate valves used in slurry transport, for example, must consistently perform despite heavy contact with abrasive, corrosive metal solids or acids that can erode the valve.

Carrying Forward a Legacy of Excellence in Aerospace

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission to the moon. General Magnaplate was part of the Apollo program's success from the beginning, both on the ground innovating surface coatings for space exploration and, later, on the moon protecting the drill tubes that sampled the moon's soil and rocks.

How Engineered Coatings Help Packaging Machines Run Smoothly

Fast-paced, high-volume production facilities cannot afford downtime caused by poorly performing packaging equipment.

Polymer Coatings Withstand Corrosion and Take the Heat

When it comes to protecting metal and mixed metal components, harsh conditions and high performance requirements often prove too demanding for conventional coatings.
