What is Curtain Coating? Curtain coating is a high-speed, non-contact coating method used to apply a thin, uniform layer of liquid onto a moving substrate. In this process, a continuous curtain of coating liquid freely falls onto the substrate which is moving underneath the curtain. As the substrate passes through […]

How Peelable Soldermask Works Peelable soldermask is typically applied to PCBs using screen printing or spray coating techniques. The mask is composed of a polymer material that is formulated to withstand the high temperatures associated with soldering while remaining easy to remove once the process is complete. The main functions […]

Understanding the Powder Spray Process The powder spray process consists of several key steps that ensure the proper application and adhesion of the coating material to the surface. These steps include: Surface Preparation Powder Application Curing Surface Preparation Before the powder coating can be applied, the surface of the object […]

Introduction to Electrostatic Powder Spray Electrostatic powder spray is a coating process that uses electrically charged particles to create a uniform and durable finish on various surfaces. This technology has gained popularity in recent years due to its numerous benefits, including improved efficiency, reduced waste, and enhanced coating quality. In […]

Introduction to Eye-catching Red Solder Resist Solder resist, also known as solder mask, is a protective coating applied to printed circuit boards (PCBs) to prevent solder bridges and short circuits during the soldering process. While green is the most common color for solder resist, red has become increasingly popular due […]
