E Coating Companies in India (10 picks)

The strong and vibrant ‘paintjob’ on automobiles is often produced by E Coating, a cross between painting and plating.

India has a number of great companies who’re experts in the e coating process and could be options for importers sourcing new suppliers outside of East Asia to coat their metal products or components.

We’ve researched a list to get you started…

 

What is E Coating?

E coating, also named electro disposition coating, electro coating, or electrophoretic coating, is a finishing process where a metallic object, such as a vehicle panel, product component, or item of jewellery is covered in a fine layer of lacquer or paint emulsion by the application of an electrical current.

The part is pretreated and then when ready is immersed in a water bath containing the emulsion and a current is passed through the water which makes the negatively charged emulsion ‘stick’ or condense all over the positively charged metal part. The thickness of the coat applied is decided by the amount of voltage applied while it is in the bath (higher voltage equaling thicker coats).
It is then risned and placed into a kiln or oven to harden or cure at a high temperature and is then cooled. It may also be finished with polishing.
Depending on the goal of the coat, the end result may be a matte or glossy finish, but the coating is always hard and durable.

For instance, an automobile’s chassis is on the inside of the vehicle and is not seen by the driver, so it will only require a matte finish. The key goal is not aesthetic, rather it is to provide protection against corrosion for years to come (new vehicles often come with a 10-year corrosion guarantee as Electro Coating is so effective).

It is also used to coat many other metallic products and parts, such as jewellery, eyewear, fasteners, electrical parts, home radiators, machinery such as lawnmowers, various enclosures, etc. Almost anything made from metal can be e coated!

To gain an understanding of what the ED coating process involves, watch this video as it offers a clear demonstration:

 

Electro Coating Benefits

  • ED coating provides both protective and decorative finishes with very accurate color reproduction
  • It provides excellent corrosion resistance, such as against salt spray, and so is favored by automakers
  • All surfaces of the item are coated more or less evenly, as the electrically-charged paint molecules seek out and stick to the entire positively-charged metal surface, regardless of its shape…this is superior to traditional liquid or powder spray coatings where some surfaces are hard to reach and coat properly
  • Coating thickness is consistent and can be controlled by increasing or reducing the voltage used…again, superior to spray coatings which can suffer from uneven thickness
  • More cost-effective than other coating methods as the coating is transferred more efficiently with less wastage and the process can be automated requiring less staff time to manage and faster movement of parts through the line
  • Large volumes of parts can be coated at the same time, further reducing costs and increasing efficiency
  • Relatively environmentally friendly as e coating emits low or no VOCs and hazardous air pollutants, avoids heavy metals, has little waste discharge, and workers’ exposures to hazardous materials are minimal (unlike manually spraying toxic chromium-based coatings)
  • Can be FDA compliant for food contact applications
  • It is not flammable
  • It is very resistant to UV damage from the sun
