The DeNoiser software greatly reduces or eliminates the need to spray surface treatments, powders, paints, or finishes on parts with reflective surfaces because the noisy data is automatically removed by the Point Cloud Denoiser software after the scanning is completed. The actual surface data is left intact by the software’s proprietary denoising algorithms http://finishing.industrysearch.com/cgi-bin/portal2/main.plx?file=13851%2etxt DuPont CoatingSolutions and American Trim have teamed up to promote an innovative coating technology. American Trim recently took delivery of a physical vapor deposition chamber (PVD) that allows for the processing of a chrome-like finish without the use of hexavalent chrome. The PVD process employs a base powder coating supplied by DuPont, which serves as a protective, functional layer and smoothes out the surface. Therefore, no sanding or buffing is required on rough parts, like castings. The PVD chamber is utilized to deposit the very thin layer of metal. Parts are then coated with a clear acrylic topcoat for protection of the metal layer and added durability http://finishing.industrysearch.com/cgi-bin/portal2/main.plx?file=13764%2etxt The Champion AAA spray system, from Nordson's Industrial Coating Systems division, is used for painting iron, wood and plastic materials http://finishing.industrysearch.com/cgi-bin/portal2/main.plx?file=13702%2etxt Cycle times have been reduced by as much as 75% on the new MAG Fadal 2216FX compared to their older machining centers http://finishing.industrysearch.com/cgi-bin/portal2/main.plx?file=13556%2etxt Ferro’s new solar paste production site will adjoin other Ferro facilities in the Suzhou Industrial Park, where the Company currently produces frits and colors used in tile and porcelain enamel coatings and electrolytes used in the manufacture of lithium batteries and other specialty chemical products. http://finishing.industrysearch.com/cgi-bin/portal2/main.plx?file=12904%2etxt
