Heavy Equipment Paint Booths: Custom-Engineered for Large-Scale Production
PFS heavy equipment booths handle 30'–60'+ wide parts: construction equipment, mining machinery, rail cars, agricultural implements. Custom structural engineering for every project — Fox Engineering stamped drawings for local wind/snow loads. Large-scale booths integrated with production material handling and cure systems. Nationwide installation of heavy equipment finishing systems.
Heavy equipment booths are not scaled-up standard booths.
At 30'+ spans and 80,000+ CFM airflow, every component is custom-engineered — structure, airflow, controls, and integration.
Structural Engineering
Booth spans of 30'+ require engineered structural frames. James Fox Engineering provides calculations for custom I-beam sizing (fabricated from plate steel), column spacing and foundation loads, roof structure and equipment weight, and wind/snow loads per local code. Every large booth gets stamped drawings — no pre-engineered frames at this scale.
Airflow Engineering
Large booths require serious airflow: 40' wide booth at 100 FPM = 80,000+ CFM. Fan systems use multiple units in parallel, VFD control for energy management, and staged exhaust for partial-booth use. PFS engineers complete air systems — not just fan selection.
Built for the largest finishing operations in North America.
PFS heavy equipment booths are engineered for the most demanding production-scale finishing applications.
Construction Equipment
Frame components, bodies, and assemblies for excavators, loaders, dozers, and motor graders. 30'–50' booth spans common.
Mining Machinery
Underground and surface mining equipment, haul truck bodies, drill rigs, and conveyor structures.
Rail & Transit
Locomotives, passenger cars, freight cars, and transit components up to 60'+ spans.
Agricultural Implements
Tractors, combines, sprayer assemblies, and oversized agricultural equipment.
Defense & Military Vehicles
Armored vehicles, military trailers, and defense platform finishing in NFPA-compliant booths.
Engineering at production scale.
PFS heavy equipment booths integrate the full set of system components needed for large-scale production finishing.
Custom Frame Fabrication
PFS fabricates I-beam structural frames from plate steel — W6×6, W8×4, W10×4 sized to span and load. No pre-engineered frame catalogs at this scale.
Multi-Fan Air Systems
Multiple parallel fan systems with VFD control. Staged exhaust allows partial-booth use for energy management on smaller parts.
Material Handling Integration
Floor conveyors, transfer carts, and crane systems integrated with booth entry/exit. Booth airflow synchronized with material handling speed.
Heated Make-Up Air
Apollo Heat air make-up units sized to booth CFM and local climate. Heated, filtered fresh air for booth pressurization.
