High-speed, high-volume production with no margin for error

Corrosion in wet-use appliances

Tool wear and VOC compliance challenges from generic lubricants

Residue buildup or inadequate cleaning that interferes with coating or assembly

Surface quality issues impacting first-pass yield

Challenge

A large appliance manufacturer experienced product delivery delays due to a powder coat cure issue on certain substrates.

Solution

The Circle-Prosco Solution Squad partnered with the customer and powder vendor to pinpoint the root cause—finding that the oven temperatures were too high. We adjusted the cure parameters to resolve the issue.

Result

The cure issue was eliminated, production returned to schedule, and the product was successfully released to market. Confidence restored. Delivery secured.
