Small spray inefficiencies can have a big impact.
Spray applications are not just used in the paintshop, they are used throughout the vehicle manufacturing process. Small differences in nozzle selection, pressure and coverage can contribute to defects, rework, excess material use and costly downtime.
In this webinar, Sam Scully follows a vehicle body through the plant, from the press and body shop through pretreatment, paint, final assembly and testing, highlighting common challenges, and where spray performance can be improved and waste reduced.
You'll learn practical ways to improve spray processes across your plant including how to:
Reduce material and water waste across lubricant, cleaning, sealing and coating applications.
Improve coverage consistency across complex body geometry, seams, anti-chip and underbody applications.
Cut compressed air consumption in blow-off processes while maintaining effective performance.
Reduce downtime caused by nozzle wear, clogging and unplanned stoppages.
Identify optimisation opportunities across the production line, with practical ideas for process engineering, maintenance, paint quality, operations and sustainability teams.
