POLYC participated in the 21st China International Coatings Exhibition, a large-scale, comprehensive event covering paint raw materials, green coatings, intelligent manufacturing and a first-time industry-university-research zone across 100,000 square meters. POLYC has built wet-grinding and dispersion equipment since 2001.
A Comprehensive Coatings Platform
With an unprecedented scale of 100,000 square meters, the exhibition attracted well-known coating manufacturers and professional visitors worldwide, showcasing the latest products, technologies and trends that shape the modern paint industry system.
POLYC's Equipment for the Show
- Pin-Type Bead Mill for ultrafine pigment and coating grinding.
- Basket Mill for flexible, small-batch dispersion.
- High-Shearing Emulsifier Kettle for homogenization.
- Mixing / Tinting Kettle for batch preparation.
- Ink Production Line from grinding to filling.
Green Coatings and Intelligent Manufacturing
The show's green-coatings and intelligent-manufacturing themes align with POLYC's focus on efficient, low-energy dispersion. Our inline disperser guide shows how continuous dispersion cuts milling time and cost.
| Theme | POLYC answer |
|---|---|
| Green coatings | Energy-efficient bead milling |
| Intelligent manufacturing | Inline / continuous dispersion |
| Industry-research | Custom line engineering |
Buyer Takeaways from POLYC at the 21st China International Coatings Exhibition
Coatings, ink and adhesive producers visiting POLYC at the 21st China International Coatings Exhibition in Shanghai typically benchmark three things: achievable fineness, stable throughput, and how quickly a line can change color or formulation. A bead mill that reaches the target D50 but needs hours to clean between shades is a poor fit for a job shop, while a high-throughput horizontal mill suits a single-product plant. POLYC's engineers frame every recommendation around the slowest step of the buyer's own process rather than the headline specification of a single machine, because that slowest step is what fixes the plant's real output.
Questions Worth Asking at the Booth
Beyond price, buyers who get lasting value ask suppliers for a trial on their own formulation, a documented reference at a similar plant, spare-parts lead time, and the warranty terms on the grinding chamber and separator. A low quotation backed by slow spare-parts delivery can cost more in downtime than a slightly higher price with local stock. POLYC's 3-year warranty and spare-parts program give this question a concrete answer.
From the Booth to a Real Trial
After collecting brochures at POLYC at the 21st China International Coatings Exhibition, the practical next step is a lab or pilot trial on your actual formulation. POLYC routinely runs customer samples through lab-scale pin-type and basket mills to confirm fineness, viscosity behavior and cooling before any production machine is quoted. This de-risks the purchase: the numbers that enter the quotation are measured on your own paint, ink or adhesive, not on a catalog standard, and the trial record becomes the acceptance baseline when the production machine arrives.
| What to verify | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Fineness on your product | Measured on your formula, not a standard paste |
| Cleanability between colors | Decides changeover time and labor cost |
| Spare parts and local support | Determines real uptime over the machine's life |
| Reference plant of similar scale | Proves the claim under real conditions |
