Agriculture machinery

Agricultural machinery, as well as transport machinery, is an industrial sector where COLORLAK has traditionally been a significant and long-standing supplier. COLORLAK offers a wide range of industrial coatings and coating systems with a number of specific certificates. Both special two-component materials and more traditional solvent-based synthetic coatings are represented here, and again, in-house development and technical service are required.

Surface treatment of agricultural machinery

The choice of suitable coatings for a specific application is influenced by many technical and economic parameters, the importance of which may not be the same in every situation. It is necessary to take into account the corrosive aggressiveness of the environment, the required service life of the treated surface, maintenance and restoration options, aesthetic requirements, hygiene and environmental regulations, the suitability of the application equipment and, of course, a summary of the properties determining the given coating, such as drying speed, workability time, shade range, application options, etc.

In addition to various spraying methods (conventional air, with air addition, high-pressure), there is painting with a brush or roller. Practical experience shows that for applying the first layer (basic anti-corrosion paints and single-layer paints), the best method is painting with a brush or airless spraying. To ensure the most uniform film thickness, it is advisable to always apply cross-coatings if possible. Special attention should be paid to edges, corners and hard-to-reach areas.

The viscosity of the paint supply is usually adjusted for the selected application technology using prescribed thinners.

The most suitable paint system designs for specific cases will be prepared for you by the technical service department.
