Less loss, more control: EcoSupply P Core optimises colour changes in the paint line
Every drop counts - especially in modern industrial paint shops, where colour changes are increasingly frequent and wastage quickly builds up. The new EcoSupply P Core from Dürr cleverly addresses this: an innovative system that drastically reduces paint loss as well as rinse agent consumption during colour changes.
At TLCA, we follow these technological developments closely, as they fit perfectly with our mission: provide efficient, sustainable and technically optimised paint systems to industrial customers.
Less loss, more control: EcoSupply P Core optimises colour changes in the paint line
In many paint applications, the number of colour changes has increased significantly in recent years. Customers demand more customisation and shorter runs, leading to more rinse cycles and thus:
-
more consumption of rinse agent,
-
More paint loss at each changeover,
-
as well as longer downtimes.
The result: higher costs, a larger carbon footprint and reduced process efficiency.
EcoSupply P Core: a smart technological solution
Dürr developed the EcoSupply P Core in response to this efficiency issue. The system is a pneumatically controlled colour change block which is placed directly on the robot and provides an ultra-efficient transition from colour A to colour B.
What makes the system unique?
-
Compact and lightweight design
-
Shortened flush routereducing the loss of lacquer and rinse agent
-
Faster colour change without compromising on quality
-
Full integration with modern painting robots and application technology
The concrete benefits for your paint line
The EcoSupply P Core was tested in the lab and applied in real production lines. The results speak for themselves:
-
To 50% less paint loss at every colour change
-
To 70% reduced rinse agent consumption
-
Faster cycle times and thus higher output
-
Suitable for higher colour variation without yield loss
For production environments with short runs, many changeovers or high quality standards, this means concrete gains in terms of profitability and sustainability.
