When people talk about savings in powder coating, most immediately think about powder consumption. However,ย Dr. Nguyen Thao, bringing her scientific expertise from the OptiSense Regional Office for Southeast Asia & India, together withย Lasse Bergjรผrgen, Sales Project Engineer at OptiSense Germany, conducted an impressive ROI analysis that revealed substantial cost-saving potential for one of our customers.



In this real-world application, we calculated an annual savings potential of โ‚ฌ92,537.


ย โžก๏ธ Important: The biggest savings driver is not the powder itself.

Material savings account for only part of the overall potential. Even greater benefits result from:


ย โœ” Reduced rework


ย โœ” Lower scrap rates


ย โœ” Earlier detection of process deviations


ย โœ” Increased available production capacity


ย โœ” Reduced quality and warranty-related costs

Over the coming weeks, we will break down each savings category step by step, explain the assumptions behind our calculations, and show how coating companies can realize these savings in practice.



Weโ€™ll start with the most obvious metric in our next post:


How much powder can actually be saved through dry film thickness measurement before curing?
