Powder Coating Part Design Guidelines, 2 PDH

These are basic guidelines for designers and engineers to use in the development of parts that may be finished with a powder coat finish.  Clearly there are some instances where these allowances and suggestions cannot be designed into a product.  But many times, this up-front consideration can save time and effort for many people in a future design or product.
