How Will a Variable Speed System Improve My Paint System?
One of the most valuable upgrades you can make to a paint system is switching to a variable speed system—like the one offered by IntelliFinishing. Unlike traditional setups such as monorails or power-and-free conveyors, IntelliFinishing’s smart system allows each carrier to move independently and adjust its speed depending on where it is in the process.
As John Claman of IntelliFinishing explains, this flexibility allows carriers to speed up in non-process areas, helping eliminate gaps caused by product delays or issues in the booth. In traditional chain systems, such interruptions slow down the entire line. But with a variable speed system, those delays can be absorbed without compromising overall throughput.
The result is a smoother flow, more parts finished per hour, and greater productivity day-to-day. For many manufacturers, the efficiency gains can translate into hundreds of thousands of dollars in annual savings—a compelling reason to rethink legacy systems.
