Ovens are the primary source of process dirt contamination. Thermal expansion and contraction of paint overspray causes dried paint particles to “pop off” off from fixtures, carriers, & jigs. The mechanical action of the conveyors grinds these conglomerates into smaller sizes that become airborne in the turbulent zones. Ovens cannot be cycled quickly, so they cannot be cleaned frequently, ensuring a buildup of potential contaminants. OvenSaver™ products capture and isolate these particles to ensure a reduction in dirt seed defects.
“Booth Dirt” is another leading source of dirt seed paint defects. Whether from overspray, paint tracking, airflow problems, or internal/external migration- the challenge is to eliminate these dirt seeds before they make it to the vehicle. With the emphasis toward full production levels, the paint area is unable to allocate the downtime required for proper booth maintenance using traditional cleaning techniques. BoothSaver™ products not only capture and isolate the dirt seeds, but also allow for speedier and less labor intensive booth cleaning procedures.

Robots and paint lines are still another major source of paint defects. Fabric covers lead to fiber defects while their inherent elasticity leads to conglomerate defects as dried overspray “knocks off” from the moving equipment. Electrostatic painting aggravates the situation as overspray migrates to the electrostatically charged robot, rather than migrating to treatment system below. RobotSaver™ covers protect the robot’s mechanics and provide easy visual inspection. They reduce the overspray’s electrostatic attraction to the robot thus reducing overspray buildup. The cover’s elongation matches that of the paint overspray so that it does not “knock” off during movements. The multi-sectional covers allow rapid and frequent replacement of heavy overspray zones without the time or expense of replacing the entire set.
Grates and particularly grate cleaning are a large source of dirt seeds. Proper grate cleaning is critical to the paint shop’s booth balance and paint transfer efficiency. Current cleaning methods generate hazardous waste and create volumes of dirt seeds that remain in the booth. Electrostatic painting aggravates the situation as overspray migrates to the electrostatically charged grates, rather than migrating to treatment system below. Grate occlusion results and leads to booth imbalance and paint transfer efficiency losses. GrateSaver™ covers address these concerns by allowing rapid drop-in cleaning & replacement.
