WHY POLYC
One line, one accountable partner.
Single machine to turnkey line
Work with one engineering partner instead of coordinating multiple equipment suppliers.
Wet-grinding process experience
Process parameters are selected around pigment wetting, fineness, temperature, and cleaning needs.
Worldwide project support
Experience supplying equipment to more than 60 countries helps align the line to local plant needs.
Engineer-led delivery
Engineering support follows the project from design through commissioning and operator handover.
LINE DESIGN FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to set up a paint production line?
After design confirmation, typical delivery takes 30 to 45 days. Installation and commissioning commonly take 7 to 15 days, depending on line scope and site readiness.
Can you provide a turnkey solution including installation?
Yes. POLYC MACHINE can provide a complete line from process design and manufacturing through installation guidance, commissioning, and handover.
What capacity options are available?
Configurations range from 5 L laboratory systems to large production lines with 10,000 L batches. The final capacity is selected around formulation, shift pattern, and output target.
Do you provide training for operators?
Yes. We provide on-site operating training and English operating manuals as part of the agreed project scope.
What is the typical lead time for a paint production line?
Standard line delivery is commonly 30 to 45 days after design confirmation. Custom automation, explosion-proof configuration, and site-specific scope may extend the final schedule.
How do you control color consistency across batches?
The process controls pigment weighing, premixing, milling energy, temperature, and letdown order. Retained standards and agreed viscosity, fineness, and color checks support repeatable batch release.
What options are available for water-based vs solvent-based coatings?
Water-based lines can prioritize corrosion-resistant contact parts, foam control, and washing. Solvent-based lines can add closed transfer, explosion-proof electrical equipment, grounding, ventilation connections, and compatible seals.
Can you handle high-viscosity architectural coatings?
Yes. High-torque dispersion, suitable vessel geometry, and basket-mill batch processing can be configured for high-solids or high-viscosity architectural coating formulations after a material review.
