Equipment Used In Paint Industry | JCT Machinery

The paint industry employs a variety of equipment to manufacture, mix, store, and package different types of paints and coatings.

Equipment used in paint industry

1. Dispersion Equipment

High speed disperser: Used for pre-mixing and dispersing pigments and other raw materials into a liquid base. These dispersers operate at high speeds to break down agglomerates and achieve a homogenous mixture.

2. Mixing Equipment

Planetary mixer: Utilize a planetary motion to mix and blend paints. These mixers are effective in chieving uniformity in the mixture.

Sigma mixer: Particularly used for high-viscosity materials, such as putties and heavy pastes. They have twin blades that move in a planetary motion to knead and mixe materials.

3. Grinding Mills

Roller mill: Utilize rollers to crush and grind materials. They are used for producting fine particle dispersions.

4. Filtration Equipment

Filter press: Used for separating solids from liquid paint. They consist of a series of plates with filter media that trap solids while allowing liquids to pass through.

5. Storage Tank and Reactor

Stainless steel tank: Used for storing and mixing paints. They are corrosion-resistant and can withstand the chemical nature of many paint formulations.

Reactor: Used for chemical reactions, such as polymerization or curing, during the paint manufacturing process.

6. Filling Machine

Filling machine: Used for filling paint products into containers. These can include piston fillers, gravity fillers and rotary fillers.

7. Packaging Equipment

Filling and capping machines: Automate the filling and sealing of paint containers.

Labeling machine: Apply labels to paint containers for product identification.
