Abstract
An automated powder-coating system and method is provided. A series of conveyor belts are arranged end to end to transition one or more work pieces between the conveyor belts. Sensors are used to determine the current location of a work piece with respect to the series of conveyor belts. An induction heating coil for preheating work pieces and a powder-coating apparatus for powder coating work pieces are located adjacent to the conveyor belts. A control unit independently starts and stops the individual conveyor belts based on the current location of the work piece. A cooling area may also be included in the powder-coating system. The powder-coating system and method may be used to powder coat varying lengths of work pieces.
