(National Instruments: Austin, TX) -- Finishing Brands has become a global leader in electrostatic finishing equipment design, manufacturing, and marketing since Harold Ransburg invented the electrostatic process during the late 1940s. Electrostatic spray painting applies up to 100,000 VDC per coating, resulting in more consistent material coverage and significantly less paint overspray. Finishing Brands sells equipment for a wide range of industrial products, including off-road trucks, aluminum extrusions, metal office furniture, caskets, and leather. The company uses the most efficient technology to deliver a top-quality finish for each and every customer, while reducing volatile organic compounds and providing excellent transfer efficiency and atomization.

The challenge

When Finishing Brands decided to release a high-voltage cascade product, its goal was to decrease test labor cost and increase product testing throughput while ensuring product quality. Meeting this goal would make it more competitive and helps it to deliver products faster.
