System Modifications

KOCH Finishing Systems works with customers to make modifications to any existing finishing system.

System modifications are determined based on the answers to the following questions:

  1. What are the system’s specific pain points?
  2. Is the quality of the current paint finish causing part rejects?
  3. Is the system’s line speed achieving quantity and quality requirements?
  4. Are expenses from paint, washer chemicals or WWT causing noticeable price increases?

Reasons to Modify a System

  • Line regression caused by long-term use such as:
    • Rusted black iron washer stages that need to be replaced with stainless steel (i.e., tanks, pipe housing, pumps, burners, or full washer)
    • Oven heater unit or insulated panels that need to be replaced due to accumulation of paint build-up
    • Conveyor chain and trolleys that require replacement due to age
    • Outdated controls that are limiting production capabilities
  • Shifting paint requirements (Ie., time in oven, washer chemical stages, type of finish)
  • Shifting production requirements that require adjusting of conveyor speed
  • Change in the size of parts traveling through the system that requires modification of all part openings
  • System damage caused by a natural disaster (i.e., tornado, fire, flood, etc.)
