 BEASY predicts how
effective an Electrocoating process is at providing
the required paint thickness without the need for
pilot studies or full scale tests. With the software
you can create a virtual prototype of the process
and optimise the parameters to achieve the required
film build.

Unique
Experience
The BEASY team bring together over twenty years experience in electrochemical
modelling and practical experience in paint coating technology. Therefore we
can provide not only modelling tools but also expert advice on their application
to bring real world business benefits. Predict Paint
aint Thickness
The model simulates the electrochemical process and the electric fields to
enable the film thickness to be predicted. Based on easily performed experimental
tests to obtain the paint characteristics, the voltage and the current fields
can be predicted which determine the paint film thickness.
Reduce Prototyping
Costs
Testing on a virtual process is much less costly and safer than a real one.
The paint, process design and product design can be optimised using the computer
model as the impact of changes can be predicted very quickly and easily. In
the case of assessing the coating of a vehicle the savings of one prototype
can pay for the investment in the modelling many times over.
 
Optimise Anode
Cell Placement and
Line Speed
Create a virtual model of your bath to optimise the process parameters.
Save
Paint
Use the model to determine the minimum paint usage to achieve the target paint
thickness.
Ensure Coating
in Recessed Areas
One of the most difficult tasks is to ensure that adequate coating is achieved
in recessed or difficult to reach areas. Modelling provides the answer to this
problem by predicting the paint thickness even with very complex geometric parts.
Simply change the process parameters or even the design of the part itself and
see the results.
Upfront
DesignTool
Avoid last minute changes to your product to enable adequate coating of difficult
to reach areas. Create a model as part of your product design process to enable
the corrosion integrity to be assured without compromising the structural integrity.
Informed upfront decision making saves
money by reducing last minute changes and expensive prototypes.
Improve
Quality and Reduce Risk
Use the virtual model to reduce the risks in the process. Ensure that the target
film thickness is achieved under all the process viabilities and tolerances.
