I manage a powder coating line for a major lighting company. I built this system two years ago and put it to work. Pic one shows 12' housings housings being hung on the overhead conveyor four deep. Pic two shows parts traveling into the three stage zirconium phosphate pretreatment system to clean and treat the steel prior to paint. Pic three is the parts entering the automatic powder booth. Each booth has eight automatic powder guns and two manual touch-up guns that can be used if needed for odd shapes. Pic four is the powdered parts traveling into a 30' X 75' curing oven. Parts serpentine from end to end three times through the oven to get the needed 20 minutes of curing time. Pic five shows parts coming out of the curing oven and cooling down. In a few more feet they are cool enough to handle and pack. Done deal. I can coat 240 12' housings an hour. The numbers go up from there on the 8' and 4' products. 4' product runs off at 600 parts and hour and six operators can run it front to back. The booths are equipped with photo eyes to trigger guns off and on so no operator is needed. Booths are set up to reclaim any powder that does not attach to parts to be reused so we have very little waste.

And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
