Practically any material can be coated.
Given their considerable size, being able to hang doors and windows is essential. Moreover, overhead lines allow both sides to coated.
While quality is entirely subjective, using an automatic system guarantees coating application consistency/precision on the produced lots.
While an automatic coating system ensures steady product consumption and ensures application consistency throughout the day, a manual system may cause significant variations in terms of both productivity and quality. This variation is the main source of low coating process efficiency.
What's more, our software enhances efficiency, making the operator's work easier.
It couldn't be simpler. Our 2D or 3D scanner captures images of the piece to be coated as it passes. The software then automatically generates the trajectories needed for optimal piece coating.
That depends on the machine in use. As a rough guide, from 10 minutes for the simplest up to half an hour for the most complex. In the case of a window coating line, there will be several machines performing different applications.
Yes, with the aid of additional systems.
Yes, by using a specific 2D and 3D scanner.
Coating can be done either way without any shape or size restrictions. It's this aspect, in fact, that makes overhead lines so advantageous.
Little previous experience is needed to start coating. However, close consultation with specialists is essential to find the process that's right for you, based on, for example, productivity goals and the material to be coated. What's more, our solutions require little worker supervision.
We have plants that have been in regular operation for over 25 years.
Yes. Colour changes are done almost exclusively while the machine is running.
Trajectories are programmed automatically by our machine control software. The only information that needs to be added concerns the speed/distance/angle of the spray guns.
Depending on the type of instrument, they can be coated either assembled or disassembled.
Both the coating and the spraying equipment are usually supplied. A sanding solution will also be needed to complete the process.
Automatic spraying solutions (e.g. iGiotto or reciprocators) are ideal for this. Manually coating pieces that can be as large as 5000 x H3000 mm is problematic and results in low productivity. Manual coating also means poor application consistency and excessive or uncontrollable product consumption. This affects the final quality of the coating and the piece.
A line must be flexible. It must be designed according to customers' needs and their available space.
When it comes to shape, size and thickness, overhead coating poses no particular limits. In fact, the same station can even be used to coat 2 pieces in different ways.
From a minimum of 2 people for a simple line, up to a maximum of 4 for more complex ones.
