The Industrial Heating Equipment Association (IHEA), the Chemical Coaters Association International (CCAI), Products Finishing magazine and Southern Company have teamed up to provide a comprehensive training course. The Powder Coating and Curing Processes Seminar is scheduled for October 20-21, 2020, at the Alabama Power Technology Application Center (TAC) in Calera, Alabama.
The day-and-a-half introductory course includes classroom instruction and hands-on lab demonstrations. Attendees benefit from personal interaction with the speakers who are seasoned experts in all aspects of powder coating and curing processes. Attendees also receive technical resources to complement the program and gain valuable experience by spraying and curing a part during the course.
The classroom agenda will cover a variety of topics presented by members of the organizations who are dedicated to the education and growth of the industry. This seminar also includes a section on curing that reviews the basics of infrared technology, several useful electric and gas applications, and helpful case studies to prove the benefits to those who use it.
