Defect control in matte finishes: achieving Primer Coat success
In the car body painting process, the Primer Coat (primer surfacer) is a critical stage: it determines the leveling, adhesion, and aesthetic outcome of all subsequent layers. Unlike the final finish (Top Coat/Clear Coat), primer typically features low gloss and a texture that complicates visual inspection and reduces the performance of conventional machine vision. A […]
Underbody Inspection: preventing assembly errors in automotive manufacturing
In the automotive industry, many of the most critical issues remain invisible… until the vehicle is already on the road. The Underbody is home to elements vital for a vehicle’s safety, durability, and watertightness. A minor error in this area can manifest months later as cabin noise, water leaks, corrosion, or even structural failure. Historically, […]
ELPO Coating Inspection: Anti-Corrosion Protection in Automotive Manufacturing
In automotive manufacturing, corrosion is rarely visible at first—until it becomes a serious problem. When structural failures finally appear, their root cause is often found much earlier in the paint process, at a critical and frequently underestimated stage: the ELPO coating. Electrodeposition coating (ELPO) is the first real protective barrier of a car body. If […]
