Painting and Powder Coating Belmont NC | Industrial Metal Finishing | Farris Group
Belmont manufacturers move fast. Tight windows, quick changeovers, and steady volume place pressure on finishing. We support those realities with industrial painting and powder coating in Belmont, NC. Our work focuses on adhesion, corrosion resistance, gloss control, and consistent film build. Our finishing team processes carbon steel, stainless steel, and aluminum components. These range from compact brackets to large weldments and enclosures.
Every order runs inside our ISO 9001:2015 certified system. We document pretreatment chemistry, application parameters, cure profiles, and inspections. Travelers, lot tags, and revision control keep work aligned with your print and your latest color standard.
A Coating Line Built for Repeatability
Durability starts with preparation. We remove contamination with alkaline cleaning and multi-stage rinses, then apply iron phosphate for steel and zirconium conversion coatings where specifications call for stronger bond and improved salt-spray performance. If parts carry mill scale or weld discoloration, we add media blasting to create an anchor profile matched to the coating system. Masking is planned early. We protect threads, bores, sealing faces, and grounding points using silicone caps, high-temperature tapes, and custom plugs.
Powder is applied with electrostatic guns tuned for kV, flow, and air balance. Operators manage gun angle, part distance, and wrap to minimize Faraday shadowing. Typical dry film thickness (DFT) targets for exterior TGIC polyester fall between 2.0 and 4.0 mils. For high UV exposure, we specify superdurable polyester. For chemical resistance indoors, we use epoxy powders. When the spec requires a liquid system, we spray epoxy primers and 2K urethane topcoats. This approach meets gloss and hardness goals.
Cure validation is more than time in the oven. We use metal temperature probes and data loggers to verify time-at-temperature, then map ovens to confirm zone uniformity. Post-cure checks include crosshatch adhesion (ASTM D3359), impact resistance (ASTM D2794), MEK double rubs when specified, gloss readings (ASTM D523), and calibrated DFT measurements. Color panels and drawdowns support approval before release.
Handling and packaging protect the finish you approved. Hanging plans reduce touch points and ensure coverage on critical faces. After cure, parts cool on soft racks and move to inspection. We kit by subsystem, label per line or work order, and use edge guards and foam to prevent transit rubs.
Finishes That Clear Approvals
Belmont projects often intersect with regulated environments and public infrastructure. We are a FedLinks Verified Federal Vendor. This means we supply pretreatment logs, DFT and cure records, adhesion and impact results, batch numbers, and certificates of compliance. Submittals are delivered digitally and with the shipment. This helps procurement teams close files quickly.
We plan deliveries to match your staging plan. Orders ship bulk, kitted by subsystem, or serialized by cell. Labels carry part numbers, revision levels, and destinations to speed line-side placement.
