Automatic Painting Machine &
Auto Spray Painting System – Autocoat

Autocoat Engineering offers Automatic Painting Machines and Auto Spray Painting Systems — designed in Japan, Taiwan and China — to Indian manufacturers seeking to increase productivity, reduce painting costs and achieve consistent international-quality finishes. Turnkey painting plant manufacturer since 1985, based in Thane, Maharashtra.

About Automatic Painting Machines

Autocoat Engineering (I) Pvt. Ltd. is already in manufacturing of painting plants on a Turn Key Basis — having supplied many large Spray Painting Booths and Conveyorised Phosphating & Painting Plants all over India, Bahrain, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and more.

To increase productivity and reduce the cost of painting, Automatic Spray Painting Systems are designed and developed in Japan, Taiwan and China — and are extremely popular, resulting in competitive products. Autocoat is now offering great opportunities to Indian manufacturers with such versatile Automatic Painting Machines.

The basic need for an automatic painting machine is that the quality of painting cannot be matched with manual spray painting — and high production capacity can be achieved at a comparatively lower cost when compared with conventional painting practices in India.


How the Automatic Painting System Works

Automatic Painting System — Technical Description

An Automatic Painting System has a Painting Booth composed of a partition having side walls, a ceiling and a floor — which jointly define a working space isolated by the partition from exterior space for accommodating a work piece to be painted in a position therein. The partition has air inlet and outlet ports opening into the working space.

A movable painting mechanism — such as an Automatic Spray Gun — is disposed adjacent to the work piece position and controlled by a control unit disposed outside of the Painting Booth, including a drive source. The control unit and the movable painting mechanism are interconnected by an arm accommodated in an arm housing extending through the partition — with a sealing member hermetically sealing the gap between the arm housing and the partition.


What an Automatic Painting Machine Must Deliver

Autocoat evaluates every Automatic Painting Machine against the following key performance requirements before offering it to Indian manufacturers:

🧑‍🔧

Eliminate Skilled Painter Dependency

The machine must replace the need for a skilled painter or operator — enabling any trained worker to achieve consistent results without specialist painting expertise.

🎯

Consistent Quality on Every Product

Must deliver consistent, repeatable painting quality on every unit — eliminating the variation in finish that comes with manual spraying and reducing rejection rates.

Simple to Operate

The system must be simple to operate — with intuitive controls and minimal operator intervention required once the machine is set up for a specific product and paint type.

📈

High Productivity of Paint Consumption

Achieves high production output with optimal paint consumption — reducing paint waste and overspray compared to manual painting methods for the same production volume.

💰

Lowest Cost Per Unit

The combination of reduced manpower, consistent quality, lower rejection rates and optimised paint consumption delivers the lowest possible cost per painted unit in production.

🌍

International Quality & Highly Economical

Must be of international quality, highly economical and reliable — meeting the quality standards of Indian manufacturers who supply to export markets and ISO-certified customers.
