The horizontal line is the classic powder coating layout and the sensible entry point if you do not have a 9-metre-tall building or the volumes that justify a vertical plant. Aluminium profiles (and sheets) travel on a conveyor through sequential stations: surface pre-treatment, drying, an electrostatic spray booth with powder recovery, a 180-220°C curing oven and a cooling zone. The full process cycle takes 18-20 minutes.
Two arguments favour horizontal over vertical: entry cost and versatility. A horizontal line fits a standard 5-6 m production hall, costs a fraction of a vertical installation, and comfortably handles work that a vertical line struggles with: sheets, unusual sections, short runs, machined parts. The honest flip side: hanging and unloading profiles is manual work, so you need more people per coated tonne, and throughput sits well below the 800-1200 t/month a vertical plant achieves. Actual capacity depends on oven length, booth count and racking practice, parameters we size during the project stage.
We configure the line for your plant: maximum profile length, number of booths (fast colour change calls for a second booth), firing on natural gas, LPG, diesel or electric, and a layout drawn to your floor plan. Since we sell both layouts, horizontal and vertical (US spelling: aluminum powder coating line), we have no interest in steering you toward either; send your hall dimensions and target volume and we will price both options. The factory-standard line requires EU conformity work on guarding and safety circuits; we state the scope and cost of that work plainly in the offer.

Applications
Powder coating of architectural and industrial profiles, aluminium sheets and sections; base coat for wood grain sublimation; job-shop coaters with a varied product mix.
Who it is for
Extruders starting their first in-house coating plant, job-shop coaters replacing worn-out installations, plants whose building height rules out a vertical line.
FAQ
How much does a horizontal powder coating line cost?
Indicatively €80-200k EXW depending on line length, booth count and automation level. The range is public. The exact quote is prepared for your hall dimensions and target volume.
Horizontal or vertical?
Horizontal: lower entry cost, a normal 5-6 m hall, versatility (sheets, short runs). Vertical: 800-1200 t/month with 2-3 operators, but it needs an 8.5-9 m building and a several times larger budget. We sell both: send your hall data and we will price both options.
Can it serve as the base coat for wood grain sublimation?
Yes: powder coating in the base colour is the first step of the wood-grain process. We design the coating line and the sublimation machine as one production flow.
