Powder Coating Lines

conveyorized powder coating line is designed to handle high volume runs quickly and efficiently. Color changes on this system can be done in as little as fifteen minutes, which minimizes downtime and keeps the process flowing. The conveyor line work opening is three feet wide, five feet tall and the line can handle parts up to twelve feet long while running at speeds of up to 12 feet per minute. This system is designed to complete high-quality jobs quickly and efficiently.

Powder coat finishing is being used to provide high quality, durable paint finishes for a wider range of products and material types than ever before. Although the powder coating paint finishing process was originally developed to paint metal items, today it can be applied to plastics, glass, wood and medium density fibreboard (MDF).

We has several conveyor types that have provided excellent solutions for handling a products through the powder coating paint process. Important conveyor features include:

Compact and able to handle tight curves to minimize the size of the paint booth or fluidized bed and ovens.

Able to withstand temperatures up to 450 degrees fahrenheit during curing.

Can endure the the harsh chemicals used during the washing, degreasing, outgassing and sandblasting processes.

Offer hooks and carriers suitable to hold or hang the particular items being powder coated.

The conveyorized process includes several steps:

1、The parts are loaded onto the conveyor system.

2、The parts travel through our three stage washing system, followed by our dry off oven. Once the parts are clean and dry they are ready for coating.

3、The first coating booth that the parts arrive at is our base coat booth. When applicable, an epoxy primer or any other required base coat can be applied in this booth by two highly trained applicators. If no base coat is required then the parts simply pass through this booth untouched.

4、A gelling oven, heated by four gas-fired infrared catalytic burners, is used to partially cure any primer/basecoat material that is applied in the base coat booth. Again, if no base coat is required then the parts pass through the oven at ambient temperature.

5、The next step in our process is where the excitement really happens. The parts are now approaching our state of the art Wagner Super Cube booth.

5.1、As the parts enter this booth, their geometry is read by a light curtain that automatically detects their presence as well as their size. There is a highly trained applicator just after the light curtain who will begin the final coating process by targeting any hard to reach or difficult to cover areas.

5.2、Once into the heart of the Super Cube, the parts pass by 6 computer controlled automatic guns. All six guns are on sliding tables and reciprocators that move the guns in, out, up, and down to evenly coat the part based upon the software program and information from the light curtain. A 7th automatic gun is positioned underneath the parts when required for additional powder coverage.

5.3、Upon exiting the booth, the parts pass by a second highly trained applicator who inspects and completes any required touch ups.

6、After coating, the parts pass through our gas fired infrared cure oven. The speed of the conveyor and the temperature inside the oven are set for each specific part to ensure the coating is cured properly.

7、The last step in our conveyorized system occurs when the job exits the cure oven and is thoroughly inspected by our trained quality control personnel to ensure that the customer’s specifications have been met. Finally, the parts are packed to avoid any damage during shipment.

Conclusion:

Choosing the right powder coating conveyor system is essential to ensure production efficiency, reduce costs, and improve spray quality. First, choosing a well-designed and sturdy system will greatly improve the operating efficiency of the production line and avoid production delays or quality fluctuations caused by equipment problems. Second, different types of powder coating conveyor systems have their own advantages and limitations. It is important to make decisions based on the characteristics of your own production line, the required delivery efficiency, and the specific challenges you face. In addition, the maintenance requirements of the equipment, the energy efficiency level, and the adaptability of the spatial layout should also be considered.

The selection of a powder coating conveyor system is a comprehensive decision that requires a balance between equipment performance, economy, and production needs. By understanding the characteristics of various system types and combining them with actual production needs, you can choose the most suitable solution to ensure the stability and efficiency of the powder coating process and further enhance the competitiveness of your company.
