CONT

Powder molding. ... The metal part is usually coated in a two component tank in which the powdered resin held in place by a porous plate is mixed with a highly-compressed gas which is forced through the porous metal plate. The gas-powder mixture, which resembles a fluid, adheres to any metal part, which, after being preheated above the melting point of the resin, is placed in the fluidized bed atmosphere. ... The final fusing of the polymer takes place in an oven or in a bath of molten salt.
