This simple-to-use technique involves depositing an organic coating (paint) by dipping and emersing metal parts in a suitably sized tank.

To ensure reproducibility of application, the paint bath must be maintained throughout the operation.

• The technical requirements for optimizing the application are summarized by the following parameters, which must be monitored when using this technique:

  • check that parts are immersed and ejected smoothly and at a constant speed;

  • regulate bath temperature at a constant value during application;

  • agitate the paint bath mechanically and regularly,...
