New wet-paint cabin

Alara-Lukagro started using a newly installed wet-paint cabin at the beginning of October. “Due to the significant increase in the number of (large) assignments, the new cabin was desperately needed,” said Annold de Jong, Manager Coating Systems at Alara-Lukagro. “The wet paint process has various stages, including sanding and taping, painting itself and drying the paint. With this new cabin we now have 4 wet-paint cabins that we can utilise the process continuously. ”The new cabin is placed in the extension of one of the existing cabins, this makes it possible to coat even longer products, such as acoustic enclosures.  The total length of the 2 cabins together is more than 30 meters. Besides that the cabin has an internal height of 8 meters and a width of 6.5 meters.

The sides and ceiling of the new wet paint cabin are equipped with LED light boxes. This lighting is a lot more energy efficient than the old lighting, while the light output is almost the same. Besides that the cabin is equipped with a good and energy-efficient ventilation supply via filters and extraction via two extraction duct columns. The cabin is accessible via two large rolling doors and two service doors.

Rails on the ceiling make it possible for people on the Coating Systems department to guide smaller products through the cabin easily and with little physical effort. Compressed air connection points have been placed at several places in the wall where the paint sprayers can be connected. This makes it easy to reach all places of the cabin without dangerous situations with long hoses.
