OVENS, SPRAYBOOTHS & PROCESS HEATING

Trimline are global experts
in the interior refurbishment
of marine vehicles with
prestigious clients such
as Cunard, Royal Navy,
BAE Systems and Princess
Cruises. The quality of
the fi nish they provide
is paramount to their
ongoing success, and as
the refi nishing area is part
of the factory tour for new
and prospective clients, the
aesthetics of their factory
are key. Having out grown
their current spraybooth
Trimline turned to Junair
to install a new refi nishing
area in their workshop.
Junair consulted closely with Trimline to interpret
their requirements. Trimline manufacture and
refinish small items such as cabin fixtures
and fittings, which require slow baking for
extended periods of time causing a back log
in the spraybooth. Therefore to increase
productivity a spraybooth with an adjoining
baking oven has been installed.

lighting. These energy
efficient extras will
provide Trimline with
significant savings,
when compared to
their original set up.
The 1 Series spraybooth is 5m x 4.5m and is
accessed via 2 leaf doors along the side of
the booth. The fixtures and fittings that are
being refurbished will be sprayed within the
1 Series and then moved to the adjacent 5m
long baking oven, via a set of 4 leaf doors
connecting the two areas. The parts can then
be stored in the baking oven until full, and
then baked in batches. This new process flow
is much more time efficient and will enable
Trimline to increase their throughput.
A separate paint mixing room with ventilated
mix bench ensures that paints can be mixed
in a controlled environment and harmful
paint vapours are removed from the
atmosphere protecting the operatives.
The spraybooth is fitted with fuel saver mode,
variable speed drives and patented QADs
to ensure maximum energy efficiency.

room is illuminated using Junair UltraLux LED

The entire installation
was designed in 3D
CAD to ensure it met
with Trimlines stringent
requirements. The
spraybooth, baking oven
and paint mixing room
were finished in an
aesthetically pleasing
white powder coated
panelling to enhance the looks of the
refinishing area for when clients come to visit.
Steven Wood, Sales Manager Junair
Spraybooths commented, “I am very
pleased to officially hand over a completed
project for Trimline, a Southampton based
shipbuilding company. A combi spraybooth
with energy saving and productivity boosting
features, a separate bake oven and a paint
mixing room. It was a challenging project
working around a low ceiling, exposed
columns and difficult duct routing out of
the building. The final results are very
impressive and will provide service for
many years to come.”
