Multi-Stage Surface Preparation Systems are utilized for metal and plastic substrates. These systems are used extensively to prepare surfaces prior to painting or to clean parts after machining or forming operations.

The number of stages and the design of a Washer System depends upon the customers finish specifications and the complexity of the parts. A Global Finishing Solutions Washer can be designed and customized as a spray, immersion or combination of both types.

Most basic Washer Systems include a chemical cleaning stage followed by a water rinse and seal rinse stages. Per specification requirements, the washer may include the addition of phosphate stages, additional rinse stages and deionized or surfactant final rinse stages.

Applications:

Typically, Global Finishing Solutions Washers are used in the Electrocoat Process and Pre-Treatment of Class A finished surfaces. Parts requiring high corrosion protection such as: exterior automobile parts, aluminum wheels, appliances and office furniture may require up to nine washer stages. Parts that have a less stringent requirements may have only five or six stages.

Washers are used to clean and prepare substrates prior to Powder and Liquid Coating, Electrocoating and Autophoretic Coating. Global Finishing Solutions Washers are used before or after machining or forming of component parts.

Global Finishing Solutions also designs and builds Blow-Off Units and Dry-Off Ovens to completely dry parts after washing operations.
