Commercial E-Coating Services

Professional Electrocoating Service for Industrial Applications

Beacon Industries is one of the leading providers of commercial e-coating services in the Midwest and beyond. This state-of-the-art metal finishing service is available at both our Edinburgh, Indiana and New Castle, Indiana locations. Backed by more than 25 years of experience in the application of high-performance e-coatings for automotive, heavy equipment, and a wide range of industrial products, Beacon’s e-coating services have met or exceeded the strict quality expectations of manufacturers and part makers around the nation.

Our High-Capacity E Coating Process

Our high-capacity monorail e-coat processing begins with a 12-stage pre-treatment that includes alkaline cleaning, an immersion conditioner, and zinc phosphate for maximum adhesion. This 4-stage e-coat process includes impingement and immersion rinsing, with a capacity of 180 sq. ft of coating per minute to accommodate high-volume commercial/industrial projects.

Benefits of Beacon’s Commercial E Coating

The Advantages of Our E-Coat Services: Better Coverage, Durability, and Sustainability

Excellent Corrosion Protection – Beacon’s e-coating services provide excellent corrosion resistance, substantially better than most traditional liquid paints. Resistant to both rust and chemical wear, e-coat is ideal for metal parts that will be exposed to harsh environments or rough operational conditions, such as modern manufacturing facilities, farming operations, and other demanding industrial applications.

Uniform Coating Thickness with Better Adhesion – The e-coating process gives us precise control over the coating thickness. Your metal parts are immersed in a bath of electrically charged paint particles which are attracted to the part’s surface. The electrical attraction naturally ensures an even distribution of coating material across the entire exposed surface of the part. The result is extremely consistent coating thickness and coverage, even for complex part designs with intricate geometries.

An Economical and Sustainable Coating Solution – E-coating is a relatively cost-effective coating method due to its high transfer efficiency. Basically, that means more of the coating sticks to the product, and there’s less left over as waste when compared to conventional paint spraying. Further adding to the sustainability of the e-coating process, non-adhered paint particles can be easily recaptured and reused.

All of that boils down to better sustainability and better cost-effectiveness for your project. Additionally, with Beacon’s high-volume process, we can coat numerous parts simultaneously with no loss in quality, increasing productivity while minimizing labor costs.

Exceptionally Environmentally Friendly – Striving for even better sustainability, Beacon employs the most environmentally-friendly techniques available in the production of all e-coated products. E-coating is inherently one of the more environmentally-friendly coating processes available for modern industrial applications because it uses water-based paints, which have lower levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) compared to solvent-based coatings and conventional liquid paints. The low VOC emissions mean less pollution and a safer working environment for Beacon’s dedicated employees.

Versatile E-Coating Services for Commercial and Industrial Applications

Beacon’s e-coating services are compatible with many metal substrates, including steel, aluminum, and cast iron, among many others. The process is compatible with virtually any part sizes and shape, enabling us to reliably coat even the most complex parts and components. We can also e-coat in virtually all common colors and finishes, providing the design flexibility that modern commercial metal finishing projects demand.
