AUTOMATED SPRAY COATING SYSTEMS
Arnold Machine provides automated spray coating systems designed to deliver consistent coverage, reduce material waste, and improve production efficiency.
Our lineup includes standardized coating systems that are pre-engineered for faster implementation and reliable performance, helping manufacturers get up and running quickly without the delays of full custom development.
For applications that require it, we also support custom-built systems tailored to specific production requirements.
Our Automated Spray Coating Systems
Chain-on-Edge Coating Systems (Single & Two Coat)
Used for high-volume coating of round parts, these systems rotate components during application to maintain uniform coverage across internal or external surfaces. Continuous or indexing motion supports faster cycle times, while single and two-coat configurations provide flexibility based on application requirements and performance goals.
Tumble Spray Coating Systems
Built for parts with complex geometries, tumble spray systems provide full exterior coverage without the inconsistencies common in dip processes. This approach improves coating uniformity while reducing handling and manual intervention.
Interior Diameter (ID) Tube Spray Systems
Developed for long tubular components, these systems deliver internal coating coverage with integrated drying and material control. They are particularly effective for applications where interior surface treatment is critical to performance.
Roll Transfer Coating Systems
Roll transfer systems apply coatings through controlled contact, making them well-suited for applications requiring precise material distribution and efficient usage. Their design supports high-throughput production while reducing excess material consumption.
Automatic Viscosity Bulk Mixing Stations
These systems regulate material viscosity in real time, helping maintain stable coating conditions throughout production. By automating mixing and monitoring, they reduce operator involvement and support smoother system operation.
Custom Coating Equipment
Every system is engineered from the ground up to meet your unique specifications and part geometries. Designed for water-based, solvent-based, UV-cured, and specialty coatings.
Benefits of Automated Spray Coating Systems
Process Control
Achieve consistent coating results through precise control over every parameter.
Reduced Waste
Maximize material usage and eliminate unnecessary overspray for significant cost savings.
Easy Maintenance
Minimize downtime with simple maintenance procedures and readily available parts.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT AUTOMATED SPRAY COATING SYSTEM
Selecting the right automated spray coating system for your production line requires careful consideration. Here are the key factors to keep in mind:
- Throughput Capability: Choose a system designed to match your part size, coverage requirements, and production volume. Evaluating throughput early helps ensure long-term cost-effectiveness.
- Expertise and Technology: Work with a manufacturer that offers proven systems and technology for tracking material usage, reducing waste, and maintaining consistent part quality.
- PLC Integration: Select a system with PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) integration to monitor critical process data, ensure consistent coating quality, and support traceability.
- Safety and Environmental Compliance: When working with solvent-based materials, ensure the system meets all applicable safety and environmental regulations.
- Automation vs. Robotics: Robotic systems offer greater flexibility in spray gun positioning, improving transfer efficiency and reducing changeover time. Evaluate both options based on your application and future production needs.
- Batch vs. Continuous Processing: Arnold Machine systems support batch processing, with options for continuous operation depending on your production requirements and part mix.
