To reduce waste-disposal concerns and save time and money during powder coating of metal parts, Advanced Finishing, Fairview, PA, switched from using masking tape to incorporating magnetic shielding. The company eliminated the time formerly spent taping each part and then removing the tape after curing. Applying a magnetic mask saves the company an average of 30 sec./part, which compounds significantly on production runs that range from hundreds to 1000 parts or more.
