Powder coating hand booths

The hand booth is the heart of the powder coating production - the room where the operator paints the part with a hand gun. The role of a good hand booth is to keep excess powder in the work zone, collect it for reuse and provide a safe and highly visible working environment for the operator. The right booth greatly improves painting quality, powder saving and operator working conditions.

In Estonia, Elister offers Gema and proprietary designed hand powder coating booths - from simple powder walls to fully automatic powder coating booths.

Why is it important to choose the right hand cabin?

• Powder recovery - a high quality booth with cyclone or filters allows up to 95-99% of excess powder to be recycled. Not reasonable for continuous colour change.
• Operator safety and working conditions - proper air circulation and lighting ensure comfort, good visibility and compliance with occupational safety standards.
• Speed of recruitment - fast cleaning means less downtime when there is a lot of variation in detail and colour.
• Production capacity - the size and configuration of the booth must be appropriate to the size of the parts and the daily production volume.
• Construction choice and durability - sandwich type, steel or special finish walls - depending on your needs.

Types of manual cabins

Powder Walls (Spray Walls)

• A simple and compact solution for sampling, small-scale production and prototyping.
• The back wall with filters collects the excess powder, which is directed to the filter.
• Low investment and flexible choice.

Special solutions

• Booths for painting large profiles, frames and cable ladders.
• Sensitive solutions (special class, special finish, non-sand-clean, etc.).
• Line booths with automatic part identification, paint robots and conveyor system.

Powder recovery - cyclone vs filter?

Cyclone system Suitable for best colour change and highest recovery - used in continuous production lines.
Filter-based recovery is simpler, more compact and lower investment - suitable for booths where the colour tone is constantly changing. We can help you choose the right solution for your production volume and number of colour zones.

Who can use a hand-held cabin?

Manual booths are the best choice:

• Recruitment service providers and subcontractors in the industry.
• For industries where the size and geometry of parts vary.
• For small and medium-sized enterprises.
• For painting large details (frames, profiles, beams) that are difficult to paint in an automatic booth.
• For productions where fast colour changes are essential.

“Turnkey” route solutions

A hand booth is often part of a complete powder coating line. Elister will design a turnkey solution for you: pre-wash (Aabo-Ideal), drying oven, hand booth (Gema), baking oven (Aabo-Ideal) and conveyor system.
