Definitions

  • This invention relates to a process and apparatus for applying a protective coating to wire mesh.
  • the present invention aims to overcome this disadvantage by providing an anti-corrosion layer on the wire mesh prior to applying a further layer of coating material in order to give both excellent penetration into the weld area and high adhesion.
  • a process for applying a protective coating to wire mesh comprising pretreating the wire mesh with a conversion coating, immersing the coated wire mesh in a bath of anti-corrosion primer coating which is suspended in water and charged, applying a powder coating exhibiting polar properties or characteristics and curing this over the primer coating.
  • the conversion coating is a chromate or phosphate to enhance adhesion and wetting by the anti-­corrosion primer coating.
  • the anti-corrosion primer coating is an electrophoretic deposited waterborne resin selected from one of the following: alkyds, acrylics, epoxide, esters, phenolics and polyesters.
  • the powder coating exhibiting polar properties or characteristics is preferably a low moisture-permeable weather-resistant coating that will crosslink and bond with the anti-corrosion primer coating when cured.
  • a continuous plant apparatus for applying a protective coating to wire mesh using the process as set forth in the four preceding paragraphs, comprising means for transporting wire mesh into a pretreatment section including a plurality of baths for containing material to apply a conversion coating to the wire mesh, an electrocoating section including a plurality of baths for containing an anti-corrosion primer coating and then passing the pretreated wire mesh through a plant apparatus having means to apply a powder coating exhibiting polar properties or characteristics and means to cure this coating over the wire mesh pretreated with the conversion and primer coatings.
  • the invention also extends to a wire mesh panel or a continuous length of wire mesh having a protective coating applied using the process according to the present invention.
  • the wire mesh used in the process is a steel based mesh for eventual use as fencing, reinforcement or other like products and is produced by weaving or by welding.
  • Existing products of this kind are currently protected from the environment by either galvanising or powder coating or by a combination of both.
  • the woven mesh is produced by applying an anti-­corrosion coating to the steel wire which is then woven and thereby a complete coating is applied to the mesh product.
  • the steel wire used in the production of the mesh can either be galvanised or coated with a powder or both.
  • the resulting three layer system meets the above test criteria and gives a finish which exhibits no rust after a simulated 10 to 20 years life cycle.
  • Figures 1 and 2 illustrate a continuous pretreatment plant comprising a loading station 1 for wire mesh in either roll form 2 or panels 3.
  • the wire mesh is transported by a mechanical handling system 4 and dipped into a series of baths. Five rolls measuring up to 2.4 metres wide and 750mm diameter (25 or 50 metres long) can be accommodated in each bath at the same time.
  • the panels 3 will normally measure 5 by 3.3 metres.
  • the transport is controlled from an electric control console 5 by an operator 6 standing on a platform 7.
  • the wire mesh is immersed in succession in a pretreatment section to apply a conversion coating comprising a bath 8 of alkali cleaner for five minutes at 70°C; two baths 9 and 10 of cold water rinse for periods of one minute at ambient temperature; a bath 11 of zinc phosphate for five minutes at 60°C; a bath 12 of cold water rinse for one minute at ambient temperature; a bath 13 containing chromic seal for one minute at ambient temperature; and a bath 14 containing a demineralised water rinse for one minute at ambient temperature.
  • the pretreated wire mesh is then passed through an electrocoating section 15 to apply an anti-­corrosive primer coating for a period of two minutes at 21°C and then to a post paint rinse section, comprising two baths 16 and 17 of ultrafiltrate rinse for periods of fifteen seconds at ambient temperature and finally to a bath 18 of demineralised water rinse for fifteen seconds at ambient temperature.
  • the wire mesh is then conveyed by an overhead conveyor 19 of the mechanical handling system 4 on a continuous path through a paint stoving oven 20 for a period of 25 minutes at 200°C.
  • the pretreated wire mesh is then transported back to an unloading station 21 at the beginning of the continuous plant conveyor.
  • the overhead conveyor 19 can carry 7.2 loads per hour.
  • an effluent treatment plant 22 Located at the rear of the operator platform 7 is an effluent treatment plant 22.
  • the pretreated wire mesh rolls or panels from the apparatus of Figures 1 and 2 are then coated with a powder coating exhibiting polar properties or characteristics in a further continuous coating plant illustrated in Figures 3 and 4.
  • the pretreated wire mesh rolls 2 are mounted on a roll supporting car 23 driven by an A.C. geared motor 24 to a snubber roll 25 which pays out wire mesh under the control of a pneumatic disc brake 26.
  • the wire mesh passes through a circular saw 27 where it may be cut to lengths as required, and through a joining press 28 to an accumulator 29, driven by a D.C. geared motor 30 and an accumulator drive A.C. torque control geared motor 31.
  • the continuous length of wire mesh is transported to a bridle 32 driven by a D.C. geared motor 33 and is treated in a spray booth 34 by applying a powder coating exhibiting polar properties or characteristics over the conversion coating and the anti-corrosion primer coating.
  • a powder coating exhibiting polar properties or characteristics over the conversion coating and the anti-corrosion primer coating.
  • the pretreated rolls 2 of wire mesh may be dipped into a fluidised bed containing the said powder coating.
  • This powder coating is preferably a low moisture-permeable weather-­resistant coating that will crosslink and bond with the anti-corrosion primer coating when cured.
  • the wire mesh with the protective coating is then passed through a bridle 37 driven by a D.C. geared motor 38 and into an exit accumulator 39 driven by a D.C. geared motor 40 and an accumulator drive A.C. torque controlled geared motor 41.
  • the wire mesh passes through a second circular saw 42 and onto a roll mandrel 43 driven by an A.C. geared motor 44.
  • the continuous plant illustrated in Figures 3 and 4 can also be used to apply a protective coating to panels 3 of wire mesh which have been pretreated in the plant of Figures 1 and 2, which panels are transported through the above described processing plant by an overhead monorail system 46.
  • the panels 3 are carried from the pretreatment plant and stacked at a location 47, for uncoated panels. These panels are then carried by the overhead monorail system 46 through the spray booth 34 or the fluidised bed and are unstacked at a location 48 for the coated and cured panels.
  • the speed of throughput of the panels or continuous sheets of wire mesh is normally 3 metres per minute.
  • the curing of the powder coating may be by infra-red or other suitable means, and normally takes one minute.
