Reducing Energy Usage and Improving Production with Process Ovens

Manufacturers are always looking for ways to improve efficiency and sustainability. There are many innovations in the paint finishing industry to help manufacturers reduce energy and streamline operations. Process ovens are a key component to curing finishes and reducing energy usage for processes with powder, liquid, and composite paints and coatings. 

How Process Ovens Help Manufacturers
Process ovens are used across a variety of applications to cure coatings for parts and accessories in the automotive, aerospace, heavy equipment and manufacturing industries. Proper curing ensures the durability and appearance of products whether you are using powder coating, liquid paint, or advanced composite materials. With advancements in design, process ovens can be built for different coatings, temperatures, and cure times. 

How Does a Process Oven Reduce Energy Usage?
With new advancements in insulation and heat distribution design, process ovens are built to minimize heat loss, recirculate air, and create specific heating zones designed for your process. This allows you to use high-efficiency components with quick heating and cool-down cycles to reduce time between batches and wasted energy, while increasing throughput and production. Process ovens can be integrated with conveyor systems or spray booths to help reduce energy loss, while smart controls and automation allow your team to adjust in real-time to reduce errors and waste. 

Custom Options for your Production Line
Based on your production and volume, you can design process ovens for small or large volume output and be able to handle multiple coating types. This can reduce the need for additional equipment, maximize space in your facility, and help streamline operations. With enhanced features and automation, your team can minimize rework, improve quality of your products, and ensure compliance with industry regulations. 

Process ovens are an energy-efficient tool that can have a huge impact on your production and sustainability of your operations. If you’re using powder, liquid paint, or composite coatings, having the right oven will improve quality and lower operating costs.
