Technical Specifications of the Complex

Key Components of the Abrasive Blasting Chamber (KASO) and Paint & Drying Booth (IKFS)

Project Implementation

The project was implemented in stages and covered the period from September 2024 to October 2025, involving TWEKO’s engineering, design, manufacturing, and service departments, as well as the customer’s construction and installation contractors.

Operating Principle of the Complex

The technological complex is designed according to a pass-through layout and ensures the sequential execution of surface preparation, coating application, and drying operations for oversized assemblies and components.

Abrasive Blasting (KASO-15)

The workpiece is fed into the abrasive blasting chamber through the entrance gate and positioned within the working zone. Surface treatment is carried out using abrasive blasting units with a centralized abrasive supply and regeneration system.

During the blasting process:

• spent abrasive falls onto the scraper floor;
• is mechanically transported to the separator;
• is cleaned and separated from contaminants;
• is returned to the storage hopper for reuse.

Dust-laden air from the working zone is extracted through filtration and ventilation units, where it is cleaned before discharge. The operation of the abrasive recovery system, ventilation, and auxiliary mechanisms is coordinated via control panels.

Painting and Drying (IKFS-2-15)

After surface preparation is completed, the workpiece is transferred to the spray painting and drying booth, which is also designed as a pass-through, two-zone system. The booth allows painting and drying operations to be carried out in separate zones or enables parallel processing of two workpieces.

During painting:

• a controlled air exchange is maintained inside the booth;
• air is supplied via the intake ventilation system and extracted through side exhaust plenums;
• exhaust air passes through filtration before discharge.

In drying mode:

• thermo-ventilation units are activated;
• the control system ensures air circulation and maintains the specified process parameters;
• upon completion of drying, the booth switches to purge and cooling mode.

Control and System Interaction

All stages of the complex operation are integrated into a single control system, which enables:

• management of operating modes for each chamber;
• coordination of ventilation, abrasive regeneration, and drying processes;
• safe and stable operation of the equipment.

Thanks to the pass-through layout and the two-zone organization of working areas, the complex is integrated into a continuous production flow and adapted to the actual operational needs of the customer.

Results for the Customer

As a result of the project implementation, the customer received a fully functional technological complex integrated into the enterprise’s production infrastructure and adapted for processing oversized products and assemblies with complex geometry.

The implemented solution provided:

• a closed production cycle for surface preparation, painting, and drying within a single complex, without the need to involve external production facilities;
• a pass-through processing logic with a two-zone paint and drying section, enabling flexible production planning and adaptation to current operational tasks;
• stable equipment operation under intensive industrial conditions due to robust industrial design, automated control systems, and regulated installation;

The company’s primary focus is the development of reliable and efficient process equipment that optimizes production workflows, ensures high quality of finished products, and delivers strong economic efficiency during operation.

Solution

Within the project, TWEKO developed, manufactured, supplied, and commissioned a comprehensive process solution for the preparation and finishing of metal products. The solution combines abrasive blasting, paint application, and subsequent drying under controlled conditions. The equipment layout was designed with consideration for product dimensions, production intensity, and requirements for stable surface preparation quality and coating application consistency.

The solution is built on a modular principle and includes two key process areas: KASO series abrasive blasting chambers and IKFS series paint-spray and drying booths with integrated thermo-ventilation modules. This approach enabled a controlled production cycle for surface preparation and coating application with predictable results at every stage.

• Abrasive Blasting Chambers
  For mechanical surface preparation of metal products, the complex includes two industrial-grade abrasive blasting chambers — KASO-12 and KASO-15 — designed for processing large and heavy components. The chambers remove mill scale, corrosion, and process contaminants while forming the required surface roughness profile prior to painting.Both chambers share a unified structural and engineering architecture, including abrasive collection and recycling systems, ventilation, filtration, and automated control. The key difference between the two chambers is the size of the working area, which allows efficient distribution of production flow based on product dimensions and helps optimize equipment utilization.Structurally, the chambers are manufactured as metal-frame cabins with internal wear-resistant lining, designed for operation under intensive abrasive load. The layout provides convenient service access and safe processing of oversized products within the production workflow.Spent abrasive collection from the working area is implemented via a mechanized scraper floor, which continuously transports material to subsequent processing units without operator intervention.Abrasive delivery to the blasting process is performed by a bucket elevator, after which the media passes through a separator to remove dust, fine fractions, and foreign inclusions. Cleaned abrasive is accumulated in a hopper and returned to the process, ensuring stable blasting parameters and rational media consumption.For dust removal and maintenance of the specified air regime, the chambers are equipped with an industrial-grade filtration and ventilation system that provides controlled air exchange in the blasting zone.

  Chamber operation is controlled from a centralized control panel that coordinates key units and enables integration into the overall surface preparation line before painting.

• Paint-Spray and Drying Booths
  For coating application and subsequent processing, the complex includes a paint-spray and drying section based on industrial-grade IKFS series booths. The solution is intended for large metal structures and provides stable painting and drying conditions with predictable results at each stage of the process.The IKFS paint-spray and drying booths operate in conjunction with the upstream abrasive blasting area, forming a complete technological cycle for surface preparation and coating application. The booth design and engineering systems are aimed at maintaining a controlled air regime, uniform thermal load, and high-quality final surface finish.

  • two IKFS series booths, model IKFS-12 — for painting and drying products of standard and medium dimensions;
  • one IKFS series booth, model IKFS-15 — for processing longer and more massive products;
  • one IKFS Diagonal booth, model IKFS-D-12 — for products with complex geometry or increased dimensions, using a diagonal airflow pattern that обеспечивает efficient air exchange and uniform painting and drying conditions.

  

  This configuration formed a flexible paint-spray and drying section with parallel operation capability, optimal load distribution, and adaptation of the production process to different product sizes.

  The booths are manufactured as metal-frame structures with thermally and acoustically insulated panel enclosures, forming a closed working volume with controlled microclimate parameters. This design ensures process stability during painting and effective coating curing during drying.

  Airflow organization is implemented via a controlled supply-and-exhaust scheme with multi-stage filtration. This maintains clean air in the painting zone, minimizes dust ingress, and ensures uniform air distribution throughout the booth volume.

  Air heating is provided by thermo-ventilation modules with indirect heat exchange, preventing combustion products from contacting the working air. The booths operate in several modes — painting, drying, and cooling — with automated transitions between stages according to a predefined algorithm.

• Rationale for Using Different Booth Types
  ▼

  The IKFS-12 booths are intended for serial painting of standard-sized products and обеспечують high productivity due to the capability of parallel operation. This configuration enables even distribution of production load and execution of painting operations without взаимні downtime between product streams.

  The IKFS-15 booth is designed for processing extra-long products or complex metal structures where an expanded working space is required. This booth enables painting of large components without compromising coating uniformity or drying quality.

  The IKFS-D-12 Diagonal booth implements a specialized diagonal airflow scheme that differs fundamentally from the classic linear layout of paint-spray and drying booths. Air is supplied and extracted at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the product, which helps create uniform airflow around complex-shaped or oversized structures along their entire length and height.

  This airflow scheme is especially effective for painting products with variable cross-sections, large surface areas, or localized zones with increased coating thickness, where stable thermal and airflow balance is critical.

  Operating Principle of the Complex
  ▼

  The complex provides a fully closed technological cycle for anti-corrosion treatment of large metal structures — from abrasive blasting to painting and drying under controlled conditions. All process stages are integrated into a single production chain and operate according to coordinated algorithms.

  Stage 1. Abrasive Blasting (KASO series chambers)

  Surface preparation is performed by abrasive blasting to remove corrosion, mill scale, and process contaminants to the required cleanliness level. The process takes place in the enclosed volume of KASO series chambers with controlled air environment parameters.

  Spent abrasive and removed contaminants (rust, mill scale, dust) are collected by a mechanized scraper floor with four conveyors. The mixture is transported by a bucket elevator to a separator, where it is разделена: usable abrasive is cleaned and returned to the hopper for reuse, while dust and waste are removed from the system.

  Contaminated air is extracted by an aspiration system with subsequent multi-stage filtration, ensuring stable and safe working conditions for personnel.

  Stage 2. Painting and Drying (IKFS series booths)

  Painting Mode

  Paint application is carried out in the isolated working space of IKFS series paint-spray and drying booths with controlled air environment parameters.

  Drying Mode

  Coating curing occurs automatically using air recirculation. The cycle includes purge, temperature ramp-up, drying at temperatures up to 80 °C, and controlled cooling.
