With extensive tests at GEMA in Switzerland, powder application methods, film thickness and Finishing Ovens requirement were determined.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Enhancing production<\/h3>\n<p>The powder coating plant was specially designed to integrate with the existing pre-treatment plant. TD Finishing Ltd designed the Finishing Ovens to wrap around the existing building columns and roof structure, the result being a compact, efficient facility arrangement that enhances the production flow through the powder finishing plant.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Easy maintenance and servicing<\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tdfinishing.co.uk\/powder-coating-systems\/\">powder coating conveyor plant<\/a> operates at a speed of 3.5 meters\/min and can handle wheels up to a weight of 275kg. The curing oven is a direct gas fired oven with 3 heater units. Each with 2 indirect driven multivane circulation fans and gas &amp; air modulating burners. The circulation fans and burners are all located at shop floor level for ease of maintenance and servicing.<\/p>\n<p>Heavy wheels are manually hung on the overhead monorail conveyor on the load area, the product pass through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tdfinishing.co.uk\/powder-coating-system\">powder coating booth<\/a>\u00a0before entering the multi pass direct gas fired curing oven for a period 60 minutes in the heat zone at the temperature of 200\u00b0C (max 250\u00b0C). The wheel exits the oven and after a period of 77 minutes of natural cooling products pass to the unload area.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>More Details<\/h4>\n<p>If you\u2019d like more details on how\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/tdfinishing.co.uk\/\">TD Finishing<\/a>\u00a0can provide your company an in-house professional, industrial\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/tdfinishing.co.uk\/products\/powder-coating-systems\">Powder Coating Plant<\/a>\u00a0or process line.
