All training seminars are customized to the installed finishing process and include all mechanical and chemical components of the process.

​

The seminars emphasize the existing process variables and how each variable effects the quality, quantity, and costs associated with your finishing line.

​

All training is done at the installation location.  Training time varies with the complexity of the flatline and the time available of employees to attend training.

Companies enjoying high growth must automate their finishing process to meet demand.  I offer an independent service to help you design the best automated finishing system for your particular needs. 

​

We also establish a cost estimate of the total project by including plant service modifications that may be necessary.  Having a predetermined line design and capital budget will allow you to save considerable time and money when searching for appropriate equipment vendors.

I have over 40 years of direct on-line process experience split roughly into 20 years each with industrial coatings suppliers followed by another 20 years with flatline machinery vendors.  I have experience in virtually all automated methods for high volume finishing of wood based products and components including:

• wide belt spraying

• roll coating

• curtain coating

• vacuum coating

• off-set printing

• digital printing

​

This combination has allowed me to work on or visit installations all over North America and much of Europe.  I am very familiar with all of the other common components and process controls needed for a successful installation and operation of smaller "work cell" automation to the most complex single pass and highly automated finishing systems.
