Whether you’re into horizontal spray coating or vertical applications, we at Cefla Finishing have been building innovative spray coaters since the 1960’s, installing them around the world  and developing new solutions year after year to increase production efficiency, enhance the quality of the final product and enable lower operating costs.

And if we’re still here in 2018, something tells us we’re doing things right. 
At the Atlanta trade show this summer, we presented 3 of our spray coating solutions, but above all, learn of the singular benefits each one will provide.
 
For example, our ROCTRE machine ensures high output capacity and features 2 cleaning trolleys to enable non-stop coating even when you need to change color. If your current paint consumption appears excessive, you will be pleased to know ROCTRE, as well as another of our machines on show at IWF called MITO, features specific software allowing the operator to set a selection of parameters and keep consumption under control. This happens from the moment the panels cross the reading barrier as they enter the spraying area, by sending data to the spray guns to optimize coating performance.
 
Both ROCTRE and MITO are horizontal spray coaters, ideal for flat or raised panels, but you will also be able to check out iGiotto, our vertical spraying robot used for coating any kind of object, simple panels, window frames or with a complex shape such as flower vases, guitars and even cajóns.
You may be used to spraying panels vertically. We build solutions so that you can choose between vertical and horizontal. Just like baseball’s linear or rotational hitting, we let you try them both.

Furniture trends: the best solution for office environments.

Furniture trends: the best solution for office environments.

Appliances technlogies coating

Open-air office environments have been all the rage in recent years, but recent changes in our communities, including social distancing policies, are giving wall partition and cubicle systems a come-back. Even conference rooms are having to be rethought to encourage safe working environments. The solution: modular, even temporary, structures are helping employers stay flexible.

Hard and soft surfaces for office and lobby furniture can be made from a variety of materials, including wood, plastic, material, and recycled materials. Furniture can be mass produced or can be as unique as the individual who requested it, it is based much on personal taste, preferred style, trends, and budget. No matter the material, taste or budget, all office furniture requires a finish to enhance its features and provide durability.

Cefla Finishing’s technologies and solutions enhance the look of wall partitions, table surfaces, chairs, lobby furniture, cubicles. A proper finish provides a beautiful and safe working environments for employees and customers, while offering a durable surface that is easy to clean. Cefla Finishing technologies result from over 70 years of experience, bringing you the best automated solutions for the treatment and painting office furniture and office wall systems.

What are the advantages of vertical door and window coating?

What are the advantages of vertical door and window coating?

Doors and windows vertical coating advantages

What are the advantages of vertical door and window coating?

Given their considerable size, being able to hang doors and windows is essential. Moreover, overhead lines allow both sides to coated.

How can I measure workpiece coating quality and how can I make my window coating process more efficient?

Thanks to an automatic system. While quality is entirely subjective, using an automatic system guarantees coating application consistency/precision on the produced batches. Whereas a manual system may cause significant variations in terms of both productivity and quality, and thereby low coating process efficiency, an automatic coating system ensures steady product consumption and application consistency throughout the day.

Straight or flexible? The answer is both!

Straight or flexible? The answer is both!

Cefla Finishing Smartedge

Edges may be straight, but flexibility is what makes the difference when processing them. The more flexible your edge processing solution is, the more straightforward your production will be.

Smartedge copes perfectly with an increasing tendency for small batches and frequent demands for customisation, avoiding production bottlenecks and unprofitable downtime. Smartedge will finish any type of edge - sanding, coating, drying - from start to finish. No need to stop machinery for time-consuming adjustments according to edge shape or thickness. Disassembling the application head, re-aligning the components to handle a different edge can repeatedly hold up production. Our patented Edge&Go head for vacuum application technology enables continuous processing of different edges.

Same shape thickness adjustments between 16 and 50 mm take between 5 and 10 seconds. Edge shape changeovers using Edge&Go in no more than 15 seconds; for example, from a straight edge with a 3 mm radius to a J-Pull.

Profile changeover: fast, automated, just‑in‑time.

How long does it take you to change profile?

Wrapping technology

Every time you watch RoboWrap getting ready for the next job, you wonder if someone hired a choreographer to define the automated set-up sequence. And that sequence, with its fully robotized mechanisms, allowing profile changeovers to be completed in few minutes, combines limited set-up and maintenance times with high output rates.

No other profile wrapping solution can compare to RoboWrap. It features intelligent software which analyses key factors prior to process set-up. This even takes into account worn or age-deformed pressure rollers and no matter how much a profile's geometry differs from another, the set-up time (which can take hours with conventional wrapping machines) remains a matter of minutes. This cuts downtime. Consequently, any company manufacturing wooden and PVC profiles, with a need for a highly flexible system capable of responding quickly to customers' just-in-time demands, while maintaining high-quality standards, can easily stay competitive.

But there are solutions similar to RoboWrap, representing different levels of investment: PowerWrap, MultiWrap and EasyWrap. In all cases, the process parameters are constantly under control, so at the end of each job, there are no surprises. What is surprising are the high output rates for all wrapping machines.

Furthermore, all wrapping machines by our brand Duspohl simplify your activities with a design concept that is the same as RoboWrap, enabling fewer manual interventions for cleaning, glue application and daily maintenance tasks. This turns into additional time for production on a daily, weekly, monthly basis, boosting productivity and increasing ROI.

On all Duspohl wrapping machines, all components are designed and built in-house, from the feeding system, pre-melter and glue application unit through to the separating system. This ensures perfect matching and much less need for maintenance thanks to the durability of all key parts.

Do you know how much it costs you to work with a paint recovery system?

Do you know how much it costs you to work with a paint recovery system?

Cost of spray painting recycling system

Today, we focus on spraying machine paint recovery and cleaning system.

Less detergent means lower operating costs, it safeguards your equipment and ensures a healthier environment.

Working with a sprayer or a robot with a belt that allows paint recovery means cleaning the belt regularly to remove any trace of the applied product. If your spray cleaning system is conventional, you will not only throw away a lot of paint, but you will also use a significant amount of detergent. Conventional systems also lead to rapid belt deterioration, either through the abrasion from belt cleaner blades or aggressive solvents. You will benefit from:

  • increased paint recovery
  • detergent consumption which drops to around 50 litres per shift
  • fewer production stoppages to replace belts
  • minimal end-of-session cleaning times
  • enhanced production efficiency

Our simplified patented system allows you to reduce machine recovery times and detergent costs, even when changing colour.
