Powder Coating and Painting
Infrared in Powder Coating and Painting
Infrared technology is a proven and versatile solution for curing and drying in coating and finishing applications.
Powder coating and painting are among the classic fields of application for infrared systems. Infrared ovens can be used for the curing of powder coatings as well as for drying water-based or solvent-based paints, offering high efficiency, precise temperature control, and consistent surface quality.

Infrared in Powder Coating
Most common powder coatings are highly suitable for curing with infrared technology.
Depending on available space, energy supply, and component geometry, it can be determined whether complete curing is performed entirely with infrared or through a combination of infrared and hot air.
The key to successful curing lies in the correct dimensioning of power output and the precise alignment of the infrared emitter fields, ensuring uniform heating, optimal surface results, and efficient energy use.
Infrared in Liquid Coating
Infrared systems provide efficient and precisely controllable drying for water-based and solvent-based liquid coatings.
Similar to curing ovens used in powder coating, infrared technology can also be applied in liquid paint and coating processes. It is important to consider whether the coatings are water-based or solvent-based, as the system design must be adapted accordingly.
Infrared systems can also be configured for use in explosion-protected (ATEX) environments, ensuring safe and reliable operation in sensitive production areas.
