Core Advantages of Raymond Electrophoresis Automatic Equipment Production Lines
Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: Electrophoretic coatings provide a dense, uniform barrier that offers superior protection against rust, chemicals, and environmental degradation, significantly extending the service life of components, especially in harsh conditions.
Unmatched Coating Uniformity: The electrodeposition process ensures an incredibly even coating thickness across complex geometries, including recessed areas, sharp edges, and internal surfaces, eliminating common issues like runs, sags, and bare spots found in traditional painting methods.
High Transfer Efficiency & Material Utilization: With transfer efficiencies often exceeding 95%, E-coating minimizes paint waste. Our lines incorporate advanced ultrafiltration and recycling systems to recover unused paint, leading to significant material cost savings and reduced waste disposal.
Fully Automated & High Throughput: Designed for continuous, high-volume production, our lines feature intelligent automation, robotic handling, and optimized process sequences. This translates to reduced labor costs, increased production speed, and consistent output, meeting the demands of modern manufacturing.
Environmentally Friendly Operation: Utilizing water-based paints with low VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) content, combined with closed-loop rinsing, wastewater treatment, and fume extraction systems, our E-coating lines are highly compliant with global environmental standards, promoting sustainable manufacturing practices.
Versatile Application: Capable of coating a wide range of conductive materials and compatible with various types of E-coat paints (e.g., cathodic epoxy, acrylic), making it suitable for diverse applications from automotive parts and consumer electronics to industrial machinery.
Enhanced Safety: The enclosed nature of the E-coating process, combined with automated chemical handling and ventilation systems, significantly reduces operator exposure to hazardous materials, creating a safer working environment.

Process Flow

The Raymond Electrophoresis Automatic Equipment Production Line follows a precise, multi-stage process to ensure optimal coating quality and performance.

Pre-treatment

Workpieces undergo a series of cleaning and surface preparation steps, typically including degreasing, rinsing, and phosphating (or other conversion coatings). This crucial stage ensures a clean, active, and receptive surface for optimal paint adhesion and corrosion performance.

Electrophoretic Deposition (E-coating)

Parts are immersed in a tank containing the E-coat paint bath. An electric current is applied, causing the paint particles to migrate and deposit uniformly onto the conductive workpiece. Parameters such as voltage, current, immersion time, and bath temperature are precisely controlled.

Ultrafiltration Rinsing

After deposition, parts pass through multiple rinse stages using ultrafiltrate (UF) from the paint bath. This recovers excess paint solids, preventing drag-out and ensuring a clean, smooth surface before curing. The UF system also helps maintain bath purity.

Curing Oven

The coated parts are then transported into a high-temperature curing oven. Here, the paint film is cross-linked and polymerized, transforming it into a hard, durable, and corrosion-resistant finish. Oven temperature and dwell time are critical for achieving desired coating properties.

Cooling & Inspection

Finally, the cured parts are cooled and then conveyed to an inspection area. Quality checks are performed for coating thickness, appearance, adhesion, and other performance criteria. Automated systems can be integrated for defect detection and sorting.
