A system includes is provided to include an air conditioner in each zone of a painting process line supplying heated air according to temperature/humidity stabilization conditions for a painting process of each zone of a spray booth. A controller transmits operation information of the air conditioner including temperatures and humidities of outdoor air flowing into the air conditioner and indoor air inside each zone of the booth and temperature/humidity stabilization condition values for each zone of the booth. A server extracts stabilization time of the operation information equal to current operation information in a database in which the stabilization time required for temperature and humidity of each both zone to reach the condition values is stored and applies operation command for the air conditioner to the controller at operation schedule time derived by calculating the stabilization time backward from a time when a vehicle arrives at each booth zone.

A base for a powder coating booth, including a base structure, through which the booth is intended to rest on a floor, the base structure being configured to support a powder coating compartment of the booth. The base also includes a floor, which is supported by the base structure and which is configured to delimit the bottom of the powder coating compartment. To reduce the accumulation of residual powder, the floor includes at least one oblique panel, which is inclined with respect to the horizontal and which is configured to delimit the bottom of the powder coating compartment of the booth, whereas the at least one oblique panel is porous so as to be permeable to the air and impermeable to the residual powder resulting from powder coating an article within the powder coating compartment.

Plasma spray apparatus for coating substrates, including at least a working chamber including a plasma torch and at least a substrate support, in which an inert gas or a mixture of inert gases is contained at a pressure which is close to the normal pressure, and at least a gas circuit, in communication with said working chamber, including recirculating means of the inert gases contained in said working chamber. The recirculating means include a closed loop, including a blower and a first heat exchanger communicating with said working chamber for extracting the inert gases and supplying a first fraction of the cooled inert gases back into a first portion of the working chamber, and at least a path, communicating with said closed loop and including a compressor and a second heat exchanger for supplying a second fraction of the cooled inert gases into a second portion of the working chamber.

The present invention relates to accelerated directional airflows for use in, preferably, paint booths. Specifically, the present invention relates to apparatuses, systems, and methods of using the same that create an accelerated directional airflow while eliminating the requirement of having multiple vents, nozzles, hoses, and the like. Even more specifically, the present invention controls airflow more efficiently, requires fewer parts, and costs less to use and maintain. Specifically, the accelerated directional airflows are useful in paint booths for drying painted parts and for ventilation.

The disclosure encompasses systems and methods for performing high temperature and high humidity curing of tablets using air flow delivered from a recirculating air handler to a pan coater of a tablet coating device. The recirculating air handler may be integrated into a preexisting tablet coating device so that the air flow may be delivered by the preexisting air handler or by the recirculating air handler as desired.
