Optimized Airflow and Filtration Technology
Airflow and recovery is crucial to any painting and coating line. With over 100 years of experience in air technology, Moldow’s knowhow within this area is always an advantage.
Precise airflow control improves coating quality, reduces powder loss, and extends filter lifespan — ensuring stable and clean production conditions.
Yes. All Moldow painting lines are built with energy-saving features such as high quality panels, insulation of needed walls and pipes to ensure heat conservation and efficient components design. In addition, extra energy efficient systems and features can be included such as heat recovery systems, controlled air recirculation, and efficient exhaust filtration. These reduce both energy costs and environmental impact, while maintaining strict process stability.
Moldow primarily delivers powder coating lines to customers across Europe, where the company has a strong presence and established service network. This includes in particular Denmark, Poland, Sweden, Germany, Czech Replublic and Finland but also other European countries. Do not hesitate to contact our sales team to discuss your project.
In special cases, Moldow can also supply and support installations outside Europe, depending on the project scope and technical requirements.
If you are located outside of Europe and are interested in a Moldow powder coating line, please contact our sales team to discuss your project — we will assess feasibility and provide guidance on how we can best support your needs.
Powder coating and wet painting are both popular methods for protecting and finishing metal parts, but they differ in application, durability, and environmental impact.
| Aspect | Powder Coating | Wet Painting |
| Application method | Uses an electrostatic process to apply dry powder that is then cured in an oven. | Applies liquid paint using spray guns or dipping, followed by air or heat drying. |
| Durability | Forms a hard, uniform surface that resists corrosion, chipping, and UV exposure. Ideal for heavy-duty industrial use. | More prone to scratching, fading, and corrosion over time. Often used for decorative finishes or low-stress environments. |
| Environmental impact | Eco-friendly – no solvents or VOC emissions; overspray can be recycled. | Less sustainable – contains solvents that release VOCs during drying. |
| Finish quality | Provides a smooth, even coat with excellent color retention and gloss consistency. | May show drips, uneven thickness, or orange peel if not applied carefully. |
| Cost-effectiveness | Lower long-term cost due to material reuse and reduced maintenance. | Lower initial cost, but typically higher lifetime maintenance. |
In summary, powder coating lines offer a more durable, consistent, and environmentally friendly finish compared to wet painting — making them the preferred choice for industrial and metal fabrication applications. Moldow’s systems are engineered to maximize these advantages with energy-efficient ovens, precise air management, and advanced automation.
Choosing the right powder coating line depends on factors such as:
- Type and size of parts to be coated
- Required throughput and cycle time
- Space constraints and layout
- Desired automation level
- Energy and environmental requirements.
Moldow’s experts can design a customized powder coating line tailored to your production flow — from manual to fully automatic systems, including robotic application and energy-efficient ventilation solutions. With more than 50 years of experience in design and supply of powder coating lines, we can advise on the right solution for your production.
Powder coating lines offer several key benefits:
- High durability – resistant to corrosion, impact, and UV exposure.
- Eco-friendly – emits almost no VOCs and allows powder overspray to be reused.
- Cost-effective – efficient material use and reduced waste.
- Superior finish quality – provides a smooth, uniform, and attractive coating.
By optimizing airflow, heat recovery, and automation, Moldow’s systems reduce energy consumption and operational costs.
A typical powder coating line includes:
- Conveyor system – moves parts automatically through each stage for consistent results.
- Pre-treatment section – cleans and prepares the surface of the parts for coating.
- Drying oven – dries the parts after pretreatment and removes any residual moisture before the powder application.
- Cooling zone – cools down the parts after drying and before powder application.
- Powder booth(s) – where the powder is electrostatically applied to the parts.
- Curing oven – melts and bonds the powder to form a hard, even finish.
- Cooling zone – cools down the coated parts before handling or packaging.
In addition, it can include complete ventilation system, heat recovery, water treatment system and automized functions.
Moldow designs and integrates each of these sections to match any production capacity and energy-efficiency goals.
A powder coating line is a complete production system used to apply a dry powder paint to metal components. A powder coating line typically includes pre-treatment, drying, powder application, curing, and cooling zones. Parts move through these stages on a conveyor system to ensure consistent coverage and curing.
Powder coating lines are widely used in especially industrial applications due to their durability, efficiency, and eco-friendly operation.
Both wet paint and powder coating lines are used to apply protective and decorative coatings, but they differ in technology and performance:
- Wet paint lines use liquid paints and are suitable for materials like plastic or wood, or when special finishes (metallic, gloss, etc.) are required.
- Powder coating lines use dry powder that is electrostatically applied and cured, offering superior durability and environmental performance — ideal for metal products.
Moldow provides both types and can advise on which process best fits your product type, throughput, and finish requirements.
