Conveyorised Painting Plant - Manual / Automatic



Conveyorised Spray Painting Systems or Paint Booth for Continuous Production Process:
Quattro is mainly engaged into design of Conveyorised Spray Painting Plant, are especially suitable for painting of high volumes of components / products. Depends on size & weight of product to be painted, we define customized Material Handling, Pre-Treatment Zone, Painting Booth & Paint Curing Oven.
Conveyorised Spray Painting Plants are generally designed to achieve desired output in industry along with defined timeline. Conveyorised Painting Plant can be either manual or automatic. In case of manual / semi-automatic painting process, material handling will be automatic by means of conveyor and painting will be manual (through operator). In case of automatic Conveyorised spray painting plant, we can make painting automatic by means of reciprocator / robot. Generally, in case of auto painting, for linear shapes reciprocator is used and in case of complicated shapes robots are used.
Conveyorised Spray Painting Plant are mainly chemically resistant, mechanically durable, pleasant in appearance and finish painting is sought for by all quality seekers. Our system is designed to comply international safety norms (like European Standards, NFPA Standards, OSHA Norms) and local government regulations related with environmental control. Other goals are the best of product quality, minimum unit production cost, and conforming to emission control requirements. A high degree of automation has become a necessity for consistency in quality and to avoid the hazardous working environment demanded by the painting processes.
Conveyorised Spray Painting Plant is mainly consist of following –
  1. Material Handling of component (Overhead or Floor Based Conveyor – Continuous type or stop & go type / Transporter / Hoist / Motorized or Manual type Trolley)
  2. Pretreatment Plant (Dip / Spray Type) – PT process can be 3 tank process / 7 tank process / 11 tank process.
  3. Spray Painting Booth (Dip / Spray Type) – Painting process can be manual / automatic type.
  4. Paint Curing Oven – Electrically Heated / HSD fired / Gas fired
Why Conveyorised Painting Plant is used in Industry:

Increased production output:
It is one of the major benefit of conveyorised system that the demands increased production rates can be met easily by synchronization of Conveyor speed with other process / equipment.
The plant can operate round the clock without any increase in capital equipment; that is, a plant designed to produce a quantity in one shift of eight hours is capable of increasing the output three times by operating for three shifts.

Optimized design leads to effective utilization of space in plant:
A Conveyorised Painting Plant with an overhead conveyor for transportation of components will normally leave the floor area clear for storage and other movement of material.

Minimum Manforce:
Since handling is considerably reduced to mainly loading and unloading components, the employment of unskilled labour is reduced. Skilled operator will be mainly required part in case of Conveyorised painting plant, however now a days even skilled painting operators can be replaced with either reciprocator or painting robots (depends on application).

Operator’s convenience:
The product to be painted / sprayed are moved at a defined speed and accessible / convenient height. This leads to operator’s confirm for painting, and results in greater efficiency and increased output.

Supervision and Control:
This is automatically taken care of due to the defined conveyor speed and optimized design. Once the product is loaded, the conveyor carries it to the spray painting station where painting operator paint as the components pass in front of them. Oversprayed paint particles are collected in painting booth in exhaust system. No direct supervision is required to ensure the rated production. However, now a days in total automatic system, we can introduce SCADA / PLC Based system to track product movement at each point with data collection system.

Faster spraying:
Since, product handling is reduced, operator don’t need to wait till second product is being loaded. Operator can continuously focus only on painting as products to be painted will pass inside the booth in front of him.

Consistent, high quality finish: A Conveyorised system ensures operator to be focused on his job only which leads to high quality / up to some extend uniform quality as well. By accommodating paint mixing system and automatic painting system facility we can even put control on saving of paint which can be second necessary requirement by any organization who have high paint consumption in a day.

Saving in paint :
Practical paint saving is possible by means of buying volume of paint. And second way is to use proper painting equipment for painting which ensures less overspray of paint particles

Reduced painting cost:
In a Conveyorised Plant Painting cost gets reduced by considering all required factors / parameters like painting equipment, operator cost, labor cost etc. Total Conveyorised painting plant mainly consist of design, development, manufacture and installation of pre-treatment equipment, spray booths, flash-off chambers, stoving equipment, conveyors and spray painting equipment, water dry off oven, paint baking oven.
