Painting line
A painting line is a production step in the industrial production of goods of various types, for example household appliances or automobiles . It is used to apply paint to the surface of a workpiece .
Today, painting lines are controlled fully automatically and usually consist of various stations, such as cleaning, painting and drying. The workpiece passes through the successive stations on a conveyor belt. The run can either take place in intermittent operation or in continuous conveying operation. In general, a painting line comprises the area of the actual paint application (one or more layers with one or more application processes such as dip painting or powder coating ), with liquid paints the evaporation of the solvents , the paint drying and, if necessary, the cooling . Painting lines can be a few meters long, for example when painting small parts, or up to 100 or more meters, for example when painting automobiles in series.
