Surface treatment technology: "Surface treatment to improve the slip wear resistance of stainless steel."
BICOAT
[Presentation of Materials] A surface treatment that improves the slip properties of stainless steel and excels in wear resistance. We will introduce examples of surface treatments that achieve both slip properties and wear resistance.
Stainless steel is used in situations where products are packaged or transported. We introduce surface treatments that lead to solutions for challenges that could not be resolved by polishing the surface or embossing. ■Problems Occurring in Packaging Machines and Production Lines In packaging lines for food and pharmaceuticals, products are transported using stainless steel guides. Even if stainless steel is polished with a buff or embossed to facilitate product flow, there can be occurrences of line jams. ■Key Points for Problem Solving When using polishing materials for transport guides, if the surface becomes even slightly less slippery during high-speed and high-volume transport, products can jam, causing the equipment to stop. The slippery "fluororesin coating" allows products to flow at high speeds, but there are concerns about foreign matter contamination due to wear particles from the coating. In such cases, by adopting 'Bicoat,' which combines the hard coating of HV700-900 with the lubricating properties of fluororesin, we can achieve both wear resistance and slip properties, thus solving the issues of smooth product transport and surface treatment wear. *For product information on 'Bicoat(R),' please click on "PDF Download" or feel free to contact us.

basic information
■What is "Bicoat"? The ultra-durable fluorine-based organic coating "Bicoat" is a composite organic coating system that combines inorganic materials with high hardness, such as metals, ceramics, and chemical conversion coatings, with organic materials that excel in lubricity and release properties, such as fluororesins, siloxane resins, and super engineering plastics. It can be safely used in molds that require micron-level dimensional accuracy, providing reliable release properties. 【Features】 ■ High hardness and scratch resistance ■ High dimensional stability ■ Excellent non-stick properties ■ Long lifespan ■ Excellent pressure resistance ■ Bicoat achieves both "toughness" and "non-stick properties" on the coating surface ■ Can be safely used in molds that require micron-level dimensional accuracy *For more details, please contact us or refer to the catalog.
