Powder Coating Equipment for Alloy Wheels
Inovatec supplies equipment for powder coating suitable alloy wheels, including electrostatic spray units, powder booths, and curing ovens. These machines perform different stages of the process and are selected separately. Match the equipment to your wheel dimensions, approved preparation method, powder cure schedule, utilities, and production requirements.
The YH-606 is an electrostatic powder spray unit with a spray gun and interchangeable nozzles. The listed maximum powder output is 600 g/min; actual delivery depends on the powder and operating settings. Confirm the gun, nozzles, and accessories included in the quotation.
The YH-121319P provides a contained area for manual wheel spraying with powder extraction and cartridge filters. Its filter-cleaning arrangement uses pneumatic cleaning. Select the booth clearance and extraction configuration for the wheel envelope and intended spraying method.
The KX102 is a compact curing oven for a nominal two-wheel load, with wheels up to 24 inches listed in the range description. Check the wheel width, fixtures, and usable chamber clearance before ordering. Allow suitable spacing around the loaded wheels for airflow.
The KX202 uses a four-level loading arrangement for up to four suitable wheels. Actual loading depends on wheel dimensions, supports, and clearance. Confirm the proposed batch layout and cure schedule with the selected configuration.
The KL-1688 offers a batch curing arrangement with hanging or rack-mounted parts and air circulation. Select the supports for the wheel dimensions and batch weight. Check the loaded temperature profile rather than assuming every load heats at the same rate.
The KL-1864 uses a trolley for batch loading. The range description lists a maximum temperature of 250°C; this is an equipment limit, not a recommended wheel-curing setting. Confirm the quoted operating range and follow the approved powder and wheel process requirements.
Oven Features and Related Spray Booth Options
PLC controls manage the oven heating cycle. Specify the control functions, monitoring, and program requirements in the quotation. The powder supplier’s cure schedule and the temperature reached by the loaded wheels determine the process settings.
A circulation fan moves heated air around the load. The listed option uses a 0.75 kW fan, with a top-mounted arrangement available for compact oven configurations. Confirm the fan layout for the selected model and check airflow with the intended wheel load.
The listed transport arrangement uses separate trolleys for inside and outside the oven. Select the wheel supports, load rating, and loading method for your batch. Keep contact surfaces clean and maintain the trolleys according to the equipment instructions.
The listed oven construction includes 100 mm rock wool insulation, a 1 mm galvanized steel inner lining, and an outer steel panel. Insulation reduces heat loss; confirm the construction and installation requirements for the quoted model.
These filters belong to the powder spray booth, rather than the heated curing chamber. The listed cartridges are made from 100% polyester and measure 325 × 900 mm. Confirm filter compatibility and follow the supplier’s cleaning and replacement instructions.
A pneumatic filter-cleaning system helps maintain airflow in the powder spray booth. Manual or programmed cleaning depends on the selected configuration. It does not replace routine booth housekeeping, filter inspection, or safe powder handling.
CNC Wheel Machining Before Final Finishing
Where the approved refurbishment process calls for a machined wheel face, a CNC wheel lathe provides that separate operation. It does not straighten a bent wheel or establish its structural condition. Coordinate machining, preparation, coating, and inspection around the finish required for the particular wheel.

What does powder coating equipment provide?
The equipment supports powder application and thermal curing for a specified wheel finish. Coating appearance and protection depend on wheel condition, preparation, powder selection, application, and cure. A coating does not make every wheel resistant to all impact, chemical exposure, or corrosion.
Can every alloy wheel be powder coated?
Check the wheel material, construction, condition, previous repairs, and permitted thermal process. The wheel requirements and powder data must be compatible. Do not assume that every wheel can tolerate the same preparation or oven schedule.
What are the main process stages?
Establish an approved preparation method, inspect and clean the wheel, and ensure it is ready for powder application. Apply powder in the selected spray booth, cure according to the specified thermal schedule, then cool and inspect the finish. Pretreatment or outgassing steps should be used only when required by the approved process.
Does a powder spray unit include an oven and booth?
A spray unit, powder booth, and curing oven are separate machines unless the quotation explicitly includes them in a package. Confirm the supplied gun, booth extraction, filters, oven, wheel supports, controls, and accessories before ordering.
How are the curing settings chosen?
Use the powder supplier’s technical data sheet together with the approved wheel temperature limits. The required time relates to the specified cure conditions reached by the parts, rather than simply the time displayed on the oven controller. Check the loaded process and distinguish warm-up from the required curing period.
What should I check about oven insulation?
Confirm the insulation, inner lining, door arrangement, and installation requirements for the chosen model. The listed option uses 100 mm rock wool insulation and a 1 mm galvanized steel inner lining. Insulation reduces heat loss, but does not eliminate the need to assess the heating system and operating conditions.
How does oven airflow affect the load?
Circulation distributes heated air around the wheels. Wheel spacing, supports, load mass, and the fan arrangement influence the temperature profile. Allow clearance and check the loaded cycle. Recirculation and exhaust serve different purposes; confirm both requirements for the installed oven.
How should spray nozzles and settings be selected?
Match the nozzle and spray settings to the powder, wheel geometry, coverage requirements, and equipment instructions. Recesses and complex shapes may need a different application approach from an open face. Use representative wheels to establish the method rather than applying one universal setting.
How are booth filters maintained?
Inspect airflow, filters, powder collection, and pneumatic cleaning according to the booth instructions. Automatic cleaning helps maintain the filters but does not clean every surface or replace housekeeping. Use the approved cleaning method and replace damaged or unsuitable cartridges.
Which spray unit and booth are listed?
The range lists the YH-606 electrostatic powder spray unit and the YH-121319P compact powder coating booth. Select the spray unit and booth for the wheel envelope, application method, and workshop utilities. Confirm the quoted model and accessories for your application.
Which curing ovens are listed?
The range includes the KX102 compact two-wheel oven, KX202 four-wheel arrangement, KL-1688 batch oven, and KL-1864 trolley-loading oven. Nominal wheel counts depend on wheel dimensions, supports, and loaded clearance. Choose the oven around the actual batch and approved cure schedule.
What should a complete equipment quotation cover?
Provide wheel dimensions, output requirements, powder and process data, available power and compressed air, and a workshop layout. Identify which machines you need and any handling or monitoring options. Agree equipment scope, installation requirements, packing, delivery, payment, and support before placing the order.
