Precision Coating Delivery: Pneumatic diaphragm pumps with pressure stabilization.
-
Drying/Curing Tunnel: Modular IR or convection drying with zoned temperature control (ambient to 120°C).
-
Automatic Unloading & Stacking: Organized collection of finished products.
-
Centralized PLC Control Panel: Touch-screen HMI with Mitsubishi or Delta components for recipe management and speed synchronization.
Note: The line configuration—including the number of stations, spray gun quantity, and conveyor layout—is fully customizable to fit your specific factory space and production volume.
Product Description
This Internal Spray Coating Production Line is a high-precision, automated solution specifically engineered for applying uniform functional coatings to the internal and external surfaces of furniture panels and molded pulp products.
For furniture panel applications, the system utilizes reciprocating spray technology with multiple guns to ensure even coverage on flat panels, cabinet doors, and decorative boards. It handles various substrates including solid wood, MDF, particleboard, and composite materials.
For molded pulp packaging (such as eco-friendly food containers, trays, and tableware), the machine employs advanced rotary/spin-coating technology. Each product is securely held on a custom-engineered fixture while precision nozzles dispense coating. The centrifugal force created by spinning ensures the liquid coating spreads evenly across all complex interior geometries, including deep corners and sidewalls, creating a seamless barrier.
The process is ideal for applying waterproof, oil-proof, high-temperature resistant (exceeding 100°C), and surface hardening coatings that meet stringent food safety standards. By automating the application, the line guarantees consistent coating weight (typically 5-50 microns), eliminates manual errors, and significantly reduces material waste with coating utilization reaching nearly 100%.
The system is designed for 24/7 continuous operation and is fully customizable to handle various product shapes, sizes, coating materials (water-based, UV, PU), and production speeds.

FAQ
Q: What is the difference between spray coating and spin coating for molded pulp?
A: Spray coating uses compressed air to atomize coating; spin coating uses centrifugal force for even distribution on complex shapes. Our lines can be customized with either technology based on your product requirements.
Q: Can this line handle different product shapes on the same production line?
A: Yes. The key is customizable fixtures. Changeover between products involves swapping fixtures and loading a different PLC recipe, completed in minutes.
Q: What types of coatings can be applied?
A: The system is compatible with water-based acrylics, PU varnishes, UV-curable coatings, PFAS-free oil-barrier coatings, and bio-polymer films. Fluid path components can be customized for specific viscosities.
Q: How is coating thickness controlled?
A: Thickness is controlled by programmable parameters: spray pressure, rotational speed, conveyor speed, and material viscosity. All parameters stored in PLC for repeatability (5-50 microns range).
Q: Is the coating food-safe for contact applications?
A: Yes. The system applies food-grade coatings meeting international safety standards, with FDA-compliant materials available.
Q: What is the warranty period?
A: Standard warranty is 12 months for the whole machine (1 year mechanical, 6 months electrical components).
Q: Can the line be integrated with my existing conveyor system?
A: Yes. The machine's conveyor height, speed, and interface can be customized to match your existing line.
Q: What is the typical lead time for a customized line?
A: Manufacturing typically takes 25-40 working days after finalizing the design, followed by shipping.
