Abstract
An electrocoating tank arrangement characterized by a centrally and longitudinally disposed paint supply header extending along and proximate to the bottom of the tank, where the tank has sloped bottom walls, and where a highly desirable paint agitation pattern is achieved, permitting the part or article under processing to be effectively coated with optimum results. The electrocoating tank may further include adjustable weir arrangements at opposite ends thereof to promote surface circulation. The paint material is recirculated through conventional means and the electrocoating tank forms an important function in a conveyorized operation.
