Relocation of the coating line to the new factory including a layout change and the addition of a conveyor
We assisted Valdek AS with relocating the entire painting line from their old production facility to a new plant. We transported and installed all painting line equipment at the new location, ensuring minimal downtime and a quick restart. During the relocation, we modified the line layout and added conveyor to make the line more productive.
Project challenge
The existing powder coating line had to be relocated from the old production facility to the new factory in Keila. The challenge was to ensure the safe transport and installation of the equipment as well as minimal downtime, so that production could resume as quickly as possible. Instead of a simple relocation, the client also wanted to make the line more productive at the same time.
How we built it
We carried out the complete transport and installation of the painting line equipment at the new location. During the relocation, we did not merely restore the old solution, but redesigned the line layout and enhanced it to increase productivity.

"Power&Free" conveyor fully automatic powder coating line
A modern powder coating line was designed and installed for Torm Metall OÜ, enabling the washing and coating of products with dimensions of 4500 x 1000 x 1800 mm. The solution included a chamber-based 7-stage washing line with separate cabins for ferrous metal and aluminium, a combi oven, and a fully automatic "Power&Free" conveyor system. In the combi oven, the residual temperature of the curing oven is utilised in the drying oven, which increases energy efficiency.
Investment in a New Automated Powder Coating Line
We designed and installed a fully automatic powder coating line for Tammer, complete with an Aabo-Ideal gas- and electric-heated curing oven and a Gema paint booth operating 16 automatic guns. The monorail conveyor has a load capacity of 100 kg per metre. In addition, we built out the compressed air and ventilation lines. The entire installation was completed in May 2023, having started already before Midsummer.
Powder Coating Automatic Line with Power&Free Conveyor
For Sami AS, for whom we built a two-chamber liquid painting line in 2020, we established an automatic powder coating line as part of a production expansion. The solution includes a Power&Free conveyor and a tunnel-type washing automatic line that enables production analysis and future expansion. The equipment is sourced from reliable manufacturers Gema AG, Aabo-Ideal and Hjort-Conveyor.
