Precision powder coating for high-end specialist sports equipment

The Muoverti TiltBike is a unique indoor cycling experience. This lightweight cycling indoor trainer tilts with you as you bank around corners. It accelerates and brakes and lets you ‘shift’ between gears on approaching gradients.

The inner-workings include an algorithm-driven physics engine that simulates real-world forces such as acceleration, incline, and braking, a digitised handlebar steering and an elastomer-guided side-to-side tilt.

High quality, small volume powder coating for demonstrator units

This is clearly a high-end product and demonstrator units needed to be powder coated with great precision and attention to aesthetic detail. Our INTRICOAT team provided technical input for masking scheme design, leaving certain component surfaces free from powder coating. INTRICOAT masking schemes are sufficiently detailed to be viewed on CAD without the need for masked prototypes, saving time and costs for our customers.

Our services provided not only precision INTRICOAT coating for exceptional aesthetic quality on machined aluminium but we also advised on the most suitable powder coating formulation and colour choice, a metallic dark grey.

Fast turnaround to meet tight deadlines

For our clients, producing prototype or demonstration products for shows and exhibitions invariably ends up being a close-to-the-wire exercise. We can help to alleviate the pressure in these situations. We have the capability to design and implement complicated masking schemes within short timescales and to carry out detailed precision coating to meet our client’s deadlines. All of our testing, masking and coating facilities are on the same site, under the same roof.

Benefits of INTRICOAT - Taking care of every aspect

• Your work is in safe, experienced hands

• We take responsibility for all aspects of masking and coating so that you can concentrate on critical design and engineering.

• The final stage of manufacture, the finish, is generally under time pressure. We understand this and have invested in a dedicated separate facility, located within our plant, to be used exclusively for customers requiring INTRICOAT services.
