Definitions

  • the present invention comprises a procedure for the decoration of metallic pieces in general, and preferably of aluminium or iron profiles to which it is desired to apply a decorative coat imitating a natural finish such as marble, wood, etc.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a procedure for decoration in which the decorative motif can be reproduced with great precision offering therefore a very high quality finish, and at the same time permitting that the pieces to be treated can be manipulated during the decoration stage without this affecting the final quality of the decorative effect.
  • the present invention is of application in the field of decorating metallic pieces, and in particular in the decoration of aluminium or iron profiles by means of the application of powder paints.
  • the procedure for decoration disclosed in the present invention resolves satisfactorily the shortcomings of the procedures known at the present time, since it allows the decoration of metallic pieces with an extremely high degree of accuracy in the reproduction of decorative designs, and therefore it provides a finish of a quality much superior to the procedures for decoration known in the state of the art.
  • the procedure object of the invention starts from a first conventional stage, wherein a first polyester-based powder paint is deposited electrostatically on a metallic piece to be decorated, such as for example an aluminium or iron piece. Likewise in a conventional manner, this first powder paint is subjected to a heat treatment.
  • the innovation of the invention resides in the application by means of screen printing of a second powder paint with a particle size less than 40 microns, in contrast to habitual practice in these techniques, and all this with the object of achieving a very high definition in the reproduction of the decorative motif through the use of a very fine powder. In this way it is possible to reproduce details, like for example the grain of wood, with a precision that would not be possible with the procedures known at the present time.
  • this second powder paint with a selected grain size is subjected to a heat treatment in localised areas to fix it on the first paint.
  • the heat treatment consists of the application of radiation, preferably an infrared radiation, with the object of heating the second paint until the same reaches a gelled state which produces its adherence on the first coat of base paint, and which in this way allows the manipulation of the metallic piece to be decorated without the risk of the particles of the second paint moving and deforming the decorative design.
  • the procedure object of the invention achieves in this way levels of definition in the reproduction of a decorative motif much superior to those obtained by means of conventional decoration techniques.
  • the procedure for decoration object of the present invention comprises the following stages:
