Abstract
An automated coating system includes a first coating station where a coating material is sequentially applied to bearing assemblies while a first side of each bearing assembly faces upward. A conveyor sequentially moves the bearing assemblies to a turning station where the bearing assemblies are turned over. The conveyor then moves the bearing assemblies to a second coating station where coating material is sequentially applied to the bearing assemblies while second sides of the bearing assemblies face upward. The conveyor then moves the bearing assemblies to a rotating station where an inner bearing race is rotated relative to an outer bearing race to promote even distribution of the coating material.
