LATEST TECHNOLOGIES IN PAINT SHOP

Prism over the years have a track record of having supplied high performing powder coating plants and Paint Shops which last for over 15-20 years. In our r&d center in Bangalore we have developed many technologies that is realistic,affordable and can give immediate benefits in your paint shop in terms of energy and paint savings. These technologies have been developed over the years. Here are some of our latest technologies in paint shops  that we currently offer:

  1. Magic Painter Gun– This is a revolutionary gun that can save you around 50% paint and it does not use compressed air. It eliminates complete paint over spray and paint fog which occurs in almost all guns in today’s market. It gives a transfer efficiency around 85-90% and it supplies warm dry air between 45-60 degrees Celsius. As it does not use compressed air it eliminates all issues related to compressed air such as oil and moisture. This gun can be used to paint any object except for shipyards where ver high viscous paint are used.
  2. Gas catalytic oven – This oven can bring down drying/curing time drastically and only consumes 50% fuel compared to normal traditional conventional ovens. This can be used in powder coating or painting. It can also be used as a booster oven to reduce the length of the conventional oven to reduce investment costs. This also speeds up the drying time.
  3. UV Powder coating– UV powder coating is the next game changer in the powder coating industry where you can dry UV powder in less than a minute compared to traditional powder coating which takes between 20 -25 minutes to dry. A UV-cured powder system can produce more material in a given period of time. This results in an increased operating capacity, reduced WIP inventory, lower cost of quality, less energy usage, and increased profits per hour. All of these factors lead to a higher ROI. UV-curable powder coating is faster and uses less energy than other finishing processes. This key benefit allows you to coat more products in less time while using less energy without damaging the substrate. This increases productivity and reduces running costs. UV powder can be reused just like normal powder which reduces your running costs.
  4. Pneumatic 3 axis man lift platform– This platform is fitted in paint and blast booths to paint or blast large objects. This increases operator comfort and reduces fatigue. It also help in bring down refinishing costs. It is powered only by air and since a paint booth is an explosive atmosphere we dont use hydraulic or electric which can cause explosions. Our platforms are CE certified and have been exported to Europe and USA. Widely used in railways, aerospace, trucks,bus,windmills and any large fabricated machinery.

All the above technologies are present in our R&D lab and customers are welcome to come and see it for themselves to believe what we are offering.

How to Shot Blast Large Components without using Ladder?

Shot blasting large components can always be a challenge especially when it cannot be reached by the operator.Manual ladders can be difficult to climb and exhausting for the operator.Also there is a risk of few critical areas which cannot be accessed due to its size and this results in improper blasting.

Instead we offer you a complete man lift which is pneumatic powered by air which can be controlled by the operator which can be fitted in the blast booth or room.This man lift will be mounted to the the booth wall and can travel on all 3 axis by the operator(X,Y,Z). This can be used to in grit, sand and other media blast systems. Our man lift systems are designed to operate under harsh conditions.The man lifts will increase operator safety and productivity. Our platforms give trouble free performance for over 15-20 years.

Prism designs and manufactures complete industrial man lift systems used in paint booths and blast booths which are pneumatic.

How 3 Axis Platforms increases productivity in Paint booths?

Painting large equipment’s such as Aircraft’s, trucks , buses, rail coaches/locomotives , power transformers , wind mills and other components can be difficult to paint as some areas are hard to reach. This becomes increasing difficult for the operator to keep using manual ladders or platforms to paint the difficult areas. This can lead to finish issues, decreased productivity , operator fatigue and increasing the cost of repainting. To overcome these issues Prism introduces the ‘Tall Boy’ which is a Pneumatic 3 axis platform which can be fitted in your paint booths or Blast rooms. All our platforms are completely Pneumatic (powered by air) and not electric because of the explosive atmosphere present in Paint booths where any spark can be a hazardous in the paint booth. We also dont use hydraulic platforms because there could be a possibility of oil leakage and could affect the finish.Also your maintenance costs will increase as the booth needs to be regularly cleaned if here is oil leakage.

ADVANTAGES OF PRISM’S PNEUMATIC ACCESS PLATFORMS/LIFTS:

  1. Designed in Germany and manufactured in India. You are assured of technology from Germany and the manufacturing is in India which gives you a cost advantage and faster ROI for your investment. The Tall boy can fit into any type of spray paint booth and is easy to use.
  2. Our platforms are designed to reduce operator fatigue, increases productivity and helps you save on paint by bringing down the cost of over painting or repainting.
  3. Our platforms travel and reach to difficult areas of the object while painting (sometimes which cannot be reached by the human hand)which can be vertically ,telescopic or horizontally).
  4. All our platforms are powered by air which makes it safe to use in explosive atmospheres such as paint spray booths
  5. Our Platforms require less maintenance and are easy to operate.

Main Areas of Application

Manufacturers of Buses,trucks, large valves, large engines , power transformers, aircraft’s , military vehicles ,rail coaches,locomotives , metro bogies ,wind mills and any component that cannot be reached by the human hand.Our platforms can be used in Paint booths, Blast rooms as well as powder coating booths.
