Why Spray Booths Are Essential for Construction & Farming
Construction and agricultural machinery, such as bulldozers, tractors, and harvesters, endure extreme weather, dirt, and heavy use. Over time, their coatings wear down, requiring refinishing to maintain durability and prevent corrosion.
Platinum Finishing Systems (PFS) specializes in high-performance spray booths designed for large-scale construction and farming equipment. Our booths provide superior finishes, advanced airflow control, and full compliance with safety standards, ensuring an efficient and reliable painting process.
Types of Spray Booths for Large-Scale Equipment
The right spray booth depends on the type of machinery and the finishing process required. Below are the primary types of PFS spray booths designed for construction and farming applications.
1. Crossflow Spray Booths
How It Works: Air flows horizontally from one end of the booth to the other.
Best For: Large machinery requiring even paint application with minimal overspray.
Key Benefits:
Cost-effective and space-efficient
Reduces contamination in the work area
Simple yet highly effective airflow design
2. Side Downdraft Spray Booths
How It Works: Air enters from the ceiling and exits through filters located along the booth’s sides.
Best For: Large farming and construction equipment requiring a clean, controlled environment.
Key Benefits:
Efficient overspray removal
Uniform airflow for consistent coatings
Cleaner painting environment with fewer airborne contaminants
3. Downdraft Spray Booths
How It Works: Air moves from the ceiling downward, drawing overspray and fumes into floor filtration systems.
Best For: Large-scale equipment needing the highest level of contamination control.
Key Benefits:
Provides the cleanest possible painting environment
Maximizes safety by pulling harmful fumes away from workers
Ensures a high-quality, dust-free finish
4. Semi-Downdraft Spray Booths
How It Works: Air enters from the top and exits through exhaust filters along the rear or sides.
Best For: Businesses needing an efficient and cost-effective solution with some downdraft benefits.
Key Benefits:
Balanced airflow minimizes overspray
Cost-effective alternative to full downdraft booths
Suitable for various painting applications
5. Vertical Downdraft Spray Booths
How It Works: Compact booths with controlled vertical airflow for precision-based applications.
Best For: Small machinery parts or detailed finishing work on construction and farming equipment.
Key Benefits:
Ensures high-precision coatings
Compact design saves space
Reduces contamination on detailed work
