PAINT PROCESS OPTIMIZATION

 

The expense of operating a paint shop is heavy upon a business.  When inefficiencies occur, this cost can spiral quickly out of control impacting not only operating budgets, but also affecting product quality and customer relationships.  Moreover, an inefficient paint shop is a burden upon the environment.

 

If the infrastructure is in place, an efficient paint shop is not difficult to obtain.  Large capital expenditures are not required.  The conditioning of existing equipment and the implementation of modern and efficient application processes can have an immediate and enormously profitable impact on the business.  At one major automotive manufacturer, improved color change efficiency saved US$ 26 million annually, more than the original cost of the paint application equipment!

 

 

How efficient is your process ?

 

To get the highest level of productivity and quality from your paint shop, it must be efficient.  North American Paint Applications can help you quantify the level of efficiency and assign a meaningful value to it.  We offer a low cost comprehensive paint application system audit for this very purpose.  Some questions that we frequently seek answers to are listed up below.  You may well benefit from a review of them.

  

Does your process need continual manual supervision and adjustment for,

  • Drips, runs, and sags ?

  • Uneven film build distribution ?

  • Light spray and no paints ?

  • Equipment positioning ?

  • Troublesome system faults or equipment failure ?

Is the quality of your finished product reliable and consistent with customer requirements ?

Is the quality of your finished product better than the competition ?

Do you have excessive orange peel, low gloss, or color matching issues ?

Is your first time through reject rate less than 98% ?

Do you have to stop your paint conveyor because of,

  • Manual color changes ?

  • Waste removal ?

  • Cap or other cleaning ?

  • Changing totes ?

  • Changing filters ?

  • Or for any other reason ?

Are there gaps on your conveyor ?

What level of conveyor utilization have you ?

Is your conveyor speed limited for any reason other that oven curing requirements ?

Do you strip your conveyor every day ?

Is your production flexibility limited to certain product sequences ?

Is your equipment operating with high efficiency ?

Is your color change fast, reliable, and efficient ?

Do you have excessive overspray or paint build-up in the booth, on equipment, or on filters ?

Is your system flexible enough to support your production needs ?
