A workpiece processing arrangement comprises a spray booth (2) defining a work space (21), and operable to provide a controlled environment for spraying of material, a first oven (4) located adjacent a first end of the spray booth, the first oven defining an internal zone, and a second oven (5) located adjacent a second end of the spray booth, the second oven defining an internal zone (51). The arrangement also includes a transport rail (6) which extends from the internal zone (41) of the first oven (4), through the work space (21) of the spray booth (2) into the internal zone (51) of the second oven (5), the transport rail (6) being adapted for transport of a workpiece (10) between the work space (21) of the spray booth (2) to the internal zone of the first or second oven (4, 5). A corresponding method of processing a work piece in such an arrangement indicates the steps to be used when processing a first and a second workpiece The ovens may have both a baking and a curing zone. A ventilation system with an air curtain (23) may be included.

A recirculating powder applicator includes an applicator body having an inlet on an upstream surface and an outlet on a downstream surface, wherein the inlet and outlet define a passage that extends transversely through the thickness of the applicator body, a powder conduit, an air inlet, an exhaust aperture located on one of the upstream or downstream surfaces, and a circulation chamber located on the interior of the applicator body. The powder conduit and air inlet are in fluid communication with the passage and the passage is in fluid communication with the circulation chamber. A method of applying powder to a substrate during a continuous process includes using a recirculating powder applicator.

A spray booth for spraying pieces to be painted with a painting product includes a system that conveys the pieces to be painted inside the booth, a supplying circuit that supplies a painting product or solvent to painting tools, a plenum, a mobile wall providing access to the inside of the spray booth, optionally a reading system for the pieces to be painted, optionally a filtering system, a plurality of spraying tools that include one or more a spray guns each placed on an independent arm moving on a plane and optionally in a vertical direction, one or more cleaning stations, placed in correspondence of the mobile wall and provided with a drawer that is mobile between rest and a cleaning positions and that includes a painting product or solvent draining tube having a mouth, a slot for supplying compressed air, and a brush for brushing the spray guns.

Disclosed is a surface treatment device. The surface treatment device includes: a frame; a disc hanger; two support wheels for supporting the disk hanger; a rotation drive mechanism for driving the disk hanger supported on the two support wheels to rotate; a vertical spray rack for spraying liquid medicine on the circuit board on the disk hanger; and a lift mechanism for driving the vertical spray rack up and down.

A court tile for an athletic event and method of marking and installing the same. A court tile includes a plurality of playing surface boards, a plurality of first sub floor members are disposed between surface boards and a second sub floor layer. Resilient pads are provided for cushioning of the court tile. A sliding pad covers the resilient pads to permit positioning of the court tile on the venue floor. A system and method of marking a court pre-printing a segment of the court markings on a court tile. A method of creating a court with markings includes pre-marking each of a plurality of court tiles with a selected segment of a court marking for which the court tile is intended and assembling a court surface according to a predetermined placement of the pre-marked court tiles.

A positioning apparatus for a handling robot, wherein the positioning apparatus is designed to keep the handling robot in an idle position in a first state of the positioning apparatus, and to keep the handling robot in an active position in a second state, wherein, in the idle position, the handling robot is arranged below an object to be handled. The invention further relates to a device for handling objects, comprising a conveying apparatus for moving the objects to be handled and a positioning apparatus.

A modular apparatus for coating glass articles with a chemical compound includes a coating hood section (10a) including a series of interconnected walls (12) defining an interior chamber (18, 20a, 20b) having an inlet (32) and an outlet (44), a blower (24) positioned at least partially in the interior chamber (18, 20a, 20b) to carry air from the inlet (32) towards the outlet (44); and a connector (50) for connecting the coating hood section (10a) to an identical coating hood section (10b). The connector (50) for connecting being defined on at least one of the interconnected walls (12) of the coating hood section (10a).

An electrostatic powdering robot for a powder booth, the robot including a projector for performing electrostatic powder coating. In order to reduce the time required for powder removal from the booth and facilitate automation of powder removal, the robot further includes a robotic arm, which is articulated and which carries the projector for positioning the projector, as well as a blower, for blowing a powder removal fluid, preferably air, the robotic arm carrying the blower to position the blower inside the booth, so that the blower blows the powder removal fluid onto a surface to be de-powdered inside the electrostatic powdering booth and thereby removes the residual powder coating the surface to be de-powdered.

A material application and curing system incorporating a spray booth connected alongside a curing chamber along with a pivoting cantilever therebetween adapted to swing materials between them, such that materials can be coated with substances in the spray booth and then quickly, easily, and efficiently transferred to the curing chamber.
