Massey Ferguson upgrades tractor finish durability with Kremlin two‐component pumps

Abstract

Last year Massey Ferguson Manufacturing Ltd. decided to upgrade the durability of the finish on the agricultural tractor chassis produced at Banner Lane, Coventry, by switching from conventional melamine stoving alkyds to a two‐page epoxy primer, followed by a two‐pack acrylic topcoat. Application of these two‐component materials calls for precise metering of each component and their efficient mixing in order to obtain consistent quality of finish. Additionally, the metering and mixing pump units must be easy to clean after use in order to prevent the coating hardening up within the equipment.
