The Power of Smart Controls

IntelliFinishing’s smart controls are a key feature that sets us apart, enhancing flexibility, efficiency, and customization in our powder coating and liquid paint systems.

Key Features

  • RECIPE-BASED CONTROL
    • Customization:  Create specific “recipes” for different part families, dictating precise parameters like timing, temperature, and interaction with equipment.
    • Consistency:  Store and recall recipes to ensure consistent, high-quality processing.
  • INDIVIDUAL CARRIER CONTROL
    • Granular Control:  Independently control each carrier’s speed, direction, and stopping, reducing bottlenecks and optimizing throughput.
  • VARIABLE SPEEDS AND ZONES
    • Independent Zones:  Each zone operates independently with its own speed settings, reducing energy consumption and operational costs.
    • Energy Savings:  Conveyor zones and process equipment turn off or go to “low fire” when carriers with products are not being processed in that area.
  • MONITORING AND TRACKING
    • Real-Time Data:  Monitor and track parts in real-time, ensuring optimal processing conditions and improving quality.
    • Quality Assurance:  Log system parameters to reduce defects.
  • FLEXIBILITY AND EXPANDABILITY
    • Modular Design:  Easily expand the system as production needs change with little or no downtime.
    • Adaptability:Quickly adapt to changes in part sizes, shapes, processes, and volumes.

Benefits

  • Flexibility:  Precise customization for various parts and production needs.
  • Space Savings:  Reduced system footprint with individual carrier control and modular, more flexible layout design.
  • Minimal Downtime:  Up to 99% uptime with low maintenance.
  • Improved Quality:  Consistent processing conditions ensure high-quality finishes.
  • Improved Efficiency:  Reduced chemical and water waste, energy usage, and overall paint or powder usage, with higher throughput.

Practical Applications

  • Custom Finishing:  Easily switch between different finishing processes without reconfiguring the entire system.
  • Lean Manufacturing:  Reduce waste and improve workflow efficiency.
  • Data-Driven Decisions:  Use detailed data to identify inefficiencies and improve processes.

In summary, IntelliFinishing’s smart controls offer an easy to use, yet sophisticated, flexible, and efficient solution. It improves finish quality, lowers the cost to operate, and provides greater system adaptability. If you have any questions or need further details, feel free to ask!
