The
North
American Paint Application Company specializes in the optimization of
electrostatic and conventional industrial paint finishing systems and processes. Our core business
revolves around improving paint shop
efficiency. We excel
at applying the most efficient technologies and methods to existing
systems to significantly reduce operational cost, improve quality
and reliability, and streamline
processes. We design
and specify the most efficient paint
application systems available,
large or small, with regard to purchase and installation cost,
operational efficiency, and ecological impact. Our broad expertise in
engineering, systems integration, troubleshooting,
maintenance,
service
and repair of existing systems
is the best available.
The
benefits of efficient paint application are immediate and
large. Paint usage and overspray are significantly reduced,
lowering paint cost, material handling, waste generation and
disposal, and VOC/HAP emissions. Booth maintenance as a result of
paint build-up is greatly reduced, as are equipment cover and
filter changes. Greater transfer efficiency reduces cycle
times or allows more surface area to be coated within a
cycle. Improvements in quality and system reliability
increase up time, first time yield, and throughput, while reducing
levels of finesse labor, double processing, and system
maintenance. Can improved quality, flexibility, and greater
competitiveness benefit your existing customers and encourage
potential new ones, or even allow access to new markets? Efficient paint application truly
provides a cascade of benefit to your business bottom line.
Our
services cover the whole field of paint application including
servicing, troubleshooting, specifying, upgrade, design, engineering,
controls, supply,
integration and support of all equipment and processes, existing and
new. ABB, Fanuc, Kawasaki,
Motoman and other painting
robot
application integration is seamless, efficient, flexible, and robust.
We promote a paint
system audit
for a comprehensive assessment of paint system operational
efficiency. From reducing paint waste and minimizing
painted scrap, to reducing paint overspray
contamination and dirt or
imperfections in the paint
finish,
from inefficient manual or automatic
color changes
and costly
system faults, to inconsistent fluid delivery, unreliable and
inefficient process control, or paint system upgrades, we support
continuous improvement that can help you make your paint application system more
efficient than the day it was installed, and often dramatically more so.
Very
often, paint shops established only a few years ago have
experienced a decline in productivity. For many reasons, quality decreases while operating costs
increase. Often, operating efficiency was not well considered when
the system was specified and built. Frequently, a small investment, not a capital
investment, in applying modern and efficient application processes and
conditioning to existing equipment, can have an enormously profitable
impact on the business, literally overnight. At
one major automotive manufacturer, improved color change
efficiency saved US$ 26 million annually, more than the original
cost of the paint application equipment!
We
also provide paint application consultant and consulting
services. Whether
your application includes vertical reciprocators or fixed position
applicators with rotary atomizers, Ransburg, Behr, Nordson, Graco or
Sames electrostatic paint application systems, robotics or motion machines with air
atomized guns or bells, hand spray with airless, air assisted, or HVLP guns, flow
coaters or other fixed automation, water or solvent based paints, NA Paint
will achieve the highest
level of operational efficiency and process control.
