PHOS-PREP®AUTOWASH POWDER COATING PRE-TREATMENT MACHINE

Powder coating pre-treatment

PHOS-PREP® Autowash is our fully automated, pre-treatment machine for use in the powder coating industry. Successful powder coating involves more than spraying powder and curing in an oven. The pre-treatment process can determine the difference between an average job and a first class one. Quality standards are inexorably rising in all aspects of industry and none more so than in powder paint finishing. More and more customers are demanding a phosphate conversion coating. The days of wiping products down by hand are becoming limited and it is no coincidence that the most successful powder coaters have decent pre-treatment systems.

Our range of PHOS-PREP® Autowash machines are manufactured and designed around PHOS-PREP® Chemistry by well-established UK manufacturer Warren Services. Our standard machines come in various sizes with both 2 and 4 tanks and are suitable for most steel and aluminium processes.

Why choose PHOS-PREP® Autowash:

  • Simple to operate
  • Economical to run
  • Quick cycle times

After loading the parts, which can be done using a trolley system, the machine heats the chamber to 40°C to soften any oil or dirt residue, and then washes the parts with a detergent and phosphate solution. This is followed by a cold water rinse and finally drying at 100°C.

The PHOS-PREP® Autowash 4 stage system, used specifically for aluminium pre-treatment has been developed around our PHOS-PREP® Chemistry, to achieve Qualicoat standards.

PHOS-PREP® Autowash machines are made from high quality materials; all the tanks and internal surfaces are made from stainless steel.

The whole process is automatically controlled via an on board PLC computer.
