Abstract
Processes are disclosed for the coating of objects with a coating composition. The processes include positioning the objects on a continuous belt comprising a supporting member positioned to retain the object thereon, conveying the continuous belt with a drive member such that the continuous belt passes through both a coating unit and a drying unit, coating the objects on the continuous belt with the coating composition, and drying the objects on the continuous belt.
Claims20
A process for coating objects with a coating composition, comprising:
- positioning the objects on a continuous belt comprising a supporting member positioned to retain the object thereon;
- conveying the continuous belt with a drive member such that the continuous belt passes through both a coating unit and a drying unit;
- coating the objects on the continuous belt with the coating composition;
- and
- drying the objects on the continuous belt.
A process for the electrophoretic application of an aqueous electrodepositable coating composition to objects on a continuous belt comprising a supporting member positioned to retain the objects thereon, the process comprising:
- feeding the objects on the continuous belt;
- positioning the objects on the continuous belt, wherein the supporting member comprises a blade member comprising a plurality of saw teeth arranged to contact the objects;
- conveying the continuous belt with a drive member such that the continuous belt passes through both a coating unit and a drying unit;
- electrophoretically coating the objects on the continuous belt with the aqueous electrodepositable coating composition;
- and
- drying the objects on the continuous belt.
