Truss Painting

Truss painting is a vital aspect of escalator maintenance and refurbishment. Over time, the steel truss structure of escalators can become prone to rust and corrosion due to exposure to environmental elements and general wear and tear. To address this, truss painting involves a systematic process. First, the existing paint and any rust are removed through methods like sandblasting or chemical stripping. Next, a primer is applied to the cleaned surface to enhance adhesion and provide a protective layer against future corrosion. Finally, specialized paint is used to coat the truss, not only for aesthetic purposes but also to provide a robust shield against moisture and other external factors. Truss painting not only revitalizes the appearance of escalators but also plays a critical role in extending their lifespan and maintaining their structural integrity. Regular painting as part of a comprehensive maintenance plan is essential in preserving these essential transportation systems.
