Types Of Machine Shop Industry Teflon Coatings
The first machine shops surfaced sometime in the nineteenth century, during the industrial revolution. Before the industrial revolution, local workshops and villages would produce parts and tools for most companies to do work by hand. In the late of the twentieth century, the introduction of industrial robots further increased factory automation. Any machine shop that is cutting raw materials into specific shapes and sizes is a vital component to our economy, specifically within the United States. At Coating Solutions, we do our best to be a supportive company that aids machine shops in getting the job done right.
Low Friction Coatings
The low coefficient of friction that comes with fluoropolymer coatings allows many industries to use them as a dry lubricant. Anything with metal on metal rubbing parts can benefit from a fluoropolymer coating in order to reduce the friction created by the parts. The Teflon coatings’ properties serve machine shop companies well.
Chemical-Resistant Coatings
No matter what type of chemicals you use at your shop, our Teflon coating will help protect your machinery against it. No one wants their machines or parts to be permeable to chemicals. Having the right Teflon coating allows for impenetrable resistance.
Non-Wetting Properties
Whether it’s your own machinery or the machinery you are producing, Teflon coatings are known for being non-wetting. This means that it does not require a lubricant and repels any liquid that may try to seep into your machinery.
Temperature-Resistant Properties
The same can be said for its ability to resist temperature. Being infamous for its resistance to high and low temperatures, Teflon coatings are the ideal coatings to place on any sort of machine that must function in extreme temperatures.
