About Small Conveyor Plants
Conveyor Painting Plants are used for painting of components for mass productions and are generally upgraded from batch painting to conveyor painting because of distinct advantages in manpower saving, process control, rejection reduction and the ability to add accelerated drying or curing ovens. Payback is typically achieved in 2 to 3 years when volume is more than 100–200 nos. per shift for smaller and medium components.
In a conveyor painting plant, each part moves through the manufacturing process at the same rate. If graphed, conveyor painting would be a straight line moving from start to finish — with no wait time or down time because progress is happening constantly. Conveyor painting is well-suited for manufacturers with a large volume of parts, as they do not need to manually move parts into the next phase of the finishing process.
Typically, Autocoat’s Small Conveyor Painting Plant is designed with a Dry Back Paint Booth, Flash Off Enclosure and Accelerated Drying Oven — with conveyor speed ranging from 0.3 mtrs per minute to 1 mtr per minute for economical pricing.
Why Upgrade to Conveyor Painting?
Conveyor Painting Plants offer six distinct advantages over batch painting operations:
👷
Saving in Manpower Cost
Continuous flow eliminates manual handling between stages — reducing the number of operators needed and directly lowering labour costs per unit produced.
⚙️
Better Process Control
Each part spends a fixed, controlled time in each process zone — ensuring consistent coating thickness, drying time and quality across every component in the run.
📉
Saving in Rejection Cost
Consistent process parameters reduce painting defects and rejections — improving yield and eliminating the cost of rework on poorly finished components.
🔥
Accelerated Drying & Curing
Adding a drying or curing oven to the conveyor line enables accelerated drying — saving floor space, ensuring consistent quality even during monsoon and improving overall productivity.
💰
Payback in 2–3 Years
For volumes above 100–200 nos. per shift, a small conveyor painting plant delivers full return on investment within 2 to 3 years — making it a sound long-term capital decision.
📦
Space-Efficient Expansion
If you wish to expand your paint shop but space is a problem, conveyor painting plant installation is the ideal solution — fitting more production capacity into a smaller footprint.
Small Conveyor Plant – Components
A typical Autocoat Small Conveyor Painting Plant consists of three integrated components working in sequence:
Dry Back Paint Booth
Painting zoneThe painting enclosure in the conveyor system — using Autocoat’s specialty cleanable metal baffle filtration for amazingly low running cost.
- ✓4-level metal baffle filtration
- ✓Meets CPCB Particulate Matter norms
- ✓No ETP required on-site
- ✓Low filter replacement cost
- ✓Suitable for PU & air-drying paints
Flash Off Enclosure
Solvent evaporation zoneA controlled enclosure immediately after the paint booth where solvent evaporates from the freshly painted surface before entering the drying oven.
- ✓Prevents solvent blistering in oven
- ✓Ensures uniform surface before curing
- ✓Integrated into conveyor line seamlessly
- ✓Improves final paint finish quality
- ✓Reduces oven contamination risk
Accelerated Drying Oven
Curing zoneReplaces air drying with controlled accelerated heat drying (typically 60–80°C) — saving floor space, ensuring consistent quality even during monsoon and improving productivity.
- ✓Consistent quality regardless of season
- ✓Space-saving vs. air-drying racks
- ✓Electric, oil-fired or gas-fired options
- ✓Controlled temperature per paint type
- ✓Integrated with conveyor speed settings
Typical Conveyor Speed: 0.3 to 1 Mtr / MinuteAutocoat designs Small Conveyor Painting Plants with conveyor speed ranging from 0.3 mtrs per minute to 1 mtr per minute — chosen based on the drying oven length, paint type and required production volume. This economical speed range ensures proper flash-off and oven dwell time without over-engineering the system. Every project is custom-designed with a free AutoCAD drawing and full technical review before order placement.
Batch Painting vs Conveyor Painting
Understanding the key differences helps decide when to upgrade from batch to conveyor painting:
Batch Painting
- ›Parts painted in groups then moved manually
- ›Wait time and downtime between stages
- ›Variable process control — quality inconsistency
- ›Higher manpower requirement per unit
- ›Air drying takes floor space & monsoon-sensitive
- ›Suitable for low volume & varied component sizes
Conveyor Painting Plant
- ›Each part moves continuously — no wait time
- ›Straight-line flow from start to finish
- ›Consistent, controlled process at every stage
- ›Lower manpower — no manual inter-stage handling
- ›Accelerated drying oven — consistent year-round
- ›Ideal for high volume of similar-sized components

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Small Conveyor Painting Plant? +
A Small Conveyor Painting Plant is a continuous production painting system where each part moves through the painting, flash-off and drying stages at the same rate — with no wait time or downtime between stages. It is designed for mass production of smaller and medium components, offering significant savings in manpower, better process control and consistent quality compared to batch painting.
When should I upgrade from batch painting to a conveyor plant? +
A conveyor painting plant is recommended when your production volume exceeds 100–200 nos. per shift of similar-sized components, when space is a problem and you need to introduce accelerated drying instead of air drying, or when you need to improve consistency and reduce manpower costs. The typical payback period is 2 to 3 years at suitable volumes.
What does Autocoat’s Small Conveyor Plant include? +
Autocoat’s Small Conveyor Painting Plant is designed with three integrated components: a Dry Back Paint Booth (4-level cleanable metal baffle filtration), a Flash Off Enclosure (for solvent evaporation before the oven), and an Accelerated Drying Oven (electric, oil or gas fired, typically operating at 60–80°C). Conveyor speed is set between 0.3 to 1 mtr per minute depending on the paint type and required drying time.
Is a conveyor plant suitable for all component types? +
Conveyor painting is best suited for manufacturers with a large volume of similarly sized and shaped components. It is important to note that the continuous flow of a conveyor system is not ideally suited for lines containing parts of very different sizes and shapes — for such applications, batch painting or a customised handling solution may be more appropriate.
What is the price of a Small Conveyor Plant in India? +
Prices vary based on conveyor length, speed, oven type and the size and configuration of the paint booth included. Contact Autocoat Engineering at +91-7738638116 for a free customised quotation complete with an AutoCAD drawing tailored to your production requirements.
