The Made in Italy of the painting

SAT presents CUBE® Trevisan: the new revolution in the vertical plants
A
aluminum is a building
material of which the
use is growing steadily, thanks to the characteristics of flexibility, lightness
and full recyclability. But as
with all metals, the surface
tends to corrode in contact
with atmospheric agents. For
its maintenance, the most efficient and environmentally
friendly process is the powder
coating, which is divided into
the following phases: loading
of the profiles to an air carrier that takes them to the various stages of the procedure;
pre-treatment of the surface
by degreasing, pickling and
conversion; drying; powder
coating; polymerization of
the dust on the surface by
baking at a temperature of
about 180°; unloading of the
profiles. SAT is been world
leader in the design and man-
ufacture of vertical painting
systems for the past thirty-five
years. This role is recognized
by the market and it is confirmed by the commitment
and the drive towards the application of new technological solutions. In the 80s, the
rapid growth of demand for
aluminum profiles for doors
and windows, led to the development of vertical painting: the verticality allows a
higher production compared
to obsolete horizontal plants.
In a standard vertical plant, it
is possible to paint up to 800
profiles per hour, for a total of about 3 tons. In those
years the main demand for
the workers was the highest
productivity, as the profiles
were almost entirely painted
in white. The evolution of the
market, which today requires
ever greater flexibility in
terms of production lots
and varieties of colors
used in painting, led the
first revolution of SAT’s
systems.
First in the world, SAT
has entered on the same
plant
two
different
paint booths connected
in parallel, with the ability to process profiles in
either booth at the same
time, using different
colors. Further innovations introduced on the
market by the veronese
company, involved the
installation of self-cleaning cabins which are

compared to approximately 800 required for

very low operating costs, optimized use of powder paint
by using a revolutionary cabin
that can transfer on the profile about twice the amount
of paint compared to the best
