When a company is planning to purchase a paint shop, a crucial question often arises: “Are we biting off more than we can chew?” .
It is useless to say the opposite: complete painting systems have an initial investment cost that significantly affects a company’s budget, which is why we have always focused on the concept of modularity to allow small and medium-sized companies to have a system capable of growing together with the growth of their business volume.
For Eurotherm, modularity is an approach that allows companies to offer economically sustainable and highly adaptable solutions . Thanks to the modular system, with which all our manual painting systems are designed, it is possible to start with an “essential” system and subsequently progressively expand it based on future needs, thus ensuring growth compatible with medium and long-term objectives .
Eurotherm modularity is: a scalable investment based on production volumes
The distinctive feature of Eurotherm manual systems is in fact their predisposition for growth . Each cabin, oven or component is designed to be easily integrated into other structures over time. This means that the company can start with a basic system and subsequently enrich it over time with new functions or production capacities , based on its needs, without having to overturn or replace existing structures.
If it is true that the powder coating oven is the heart of the initial plant and is sufficient to start a manual painting activity, it is also true that it is the basis for proceeding with subsequent and regular updates over time such as:
- The installation of a manual or semi-automatic elevated transport system , ideal for optimising production flows when volumes increase;
- The addition of a lift station , useful for increasing speed or handling more complex pieces;
- The addition of an effective pre-treatment system to improve the quality of the finish, such as a manual washing booth, a shot blasting booth or an automatic washing tunnel;
- The addition of a second powder or liquid coating booth , depending on specific needs.
In this way, the plant grows together with the company , avoiding expensive initial investments and reducing the risks associated with wrong or oversized choices compared to actual current needs.
Eurotherm modularity is: the answer to new quality needs
A modular system not only allows you to expand production capacity, but also improve the quality of painted products and respond to new operational challenges.
For example, if the need arises at a later stage to wash the pieces before painting to improve adhesion and resistance, you can start with a manual washing cabin , suitable for small volumes or, if the volumes increase, you can add an automatic washing tunnel for pre-treatment, ideal for more intense production cycles.
In areas subject to strong corrosion, if it becomes crucial to prepare processes that improve surface protection, it will be possible to integrate a sandblasting cabin at a later stage , which prepares the pieces by eliminating impurities and rust, ensuring a long-lasting and high-quality paint finish.
Eurotherm’s modular paint systems
Eurotherm’s modular approach offers companies:
- Cost-effectiveness because the investment is made only for what is needed immediately, without tying up resources in unused or oversized structures at the present time;
- Adaptability because the system evolves together with production needs, reducing the risk of having to replace entire sections and nullifying the previous investment;
- Sustainability given by the possibility of updating and reusing existing components, reducing waste, both economic and environmental.
- Production flexibility because each additional module is designed to integrate perfectly with the existing system, ensuring harmonious growth.
For these reasons we are certain that investing in a modular painting system means making a strategic and far-sighted choice, which allows you to build the future of your company without sacrificing the economic sustainability of the present.
