Choosing the Right Paint Production Line
How to Choose1
Define the scope
List product families, annual output, batch sizes, formulation routes and packaging formats so the line is sized to real demand.
2
Size each stage
Size dispersion, milling, mixing, filtration, storage and filling from your production schedule, choosing 1-2 high-shear stages and optional bead milling for the target fineness.
3
Confirm site and expansion
Plan utilities, solvent zoning and explosion-proof requirements, automation level, cleaning strategy, building constraints and future expansion so the line grows with your business.

How it works
The POLYC Paint/Coating Production Line is a complete turnkey system that takes raw material dosing and pre-mixing through high-shear dispersion, optional bead milling, colourant tinting, filtration and finally filling, capping, labelling and palletising. POLYC designs, manufactures, installs and commissions the whole line as one accountable package.
Configurations serve architectural, industrial, automotive, wood, coil, marine and powder coatings, with modular stages for both water-based and solvent-based formulations. Optional ceramic-lined mills protect abrasion-sensitive products, and explosion-proof zoning, vapour management and dust collection are engineered for solvent-based routes.
Central PLC controls with recipe management and batch reporting improve repeatability and production visibility, while layout, steel-structure construction, piping, utilities and future expansion are engineered together so the line grows with your business.

Process Engineering
Working Principle
- 1
Raw materials are dosed and premixed before high-speed dispersion and, where required, bead or basket milling.
- 2
The batch is adjusted in mixing or let-down vessels, then filtered and transferred to filling equipment.
- 3
Piping, controls, cooling, dust or vapor management, and cleaning systems connect the stages into one production process.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a POLYC paint and coating production line and what does it include?
A POLYC paint and coating production line is a complete turnkey system covering raw material dosing and pre-mixing, high-shear dispersion, optional bead milling, colourant tinting, filtration, and integrated filling, capping, labelling and palletising. POLYC designs, manufactures, installs and commissions the whole line as one accountable package, including steel-structure construction and pipeline installation.
What throughput and batch sizes can the line handle?
Line capacity is configurable from 2,000 to 50,000 tonnes per year, with per-vessel batch sizes from 500 to 15,000 L. The exact configuration depends on your product families, annual output and packaging formats.
Does the line cover both water-based and solvent-based coatings?
Yes. The stages are modular so the same platform serves water-based and solvent-based formulations. Solvent-based routes are engineered with explosion-proof zoning, vapour management and dust collection, and optional ceramic-lined mills protect abrasion-sensitive products.
How is colour consistency and multi-shade production handled?
Automatic tinting and colourant dosing with recipe-controlled weighing support multi-shade production, while viscosity and standardisation control before filling keeps every batch on specification.
What milling and fineness can the line achieve?
High-shear dispersion is followed by optional one to two bead mill stages sized to the fineness target, covering architectural paints through industrial and automotive coating requirements.
How is batch repeatability and quality controlled?
A central PLC system with recipe management and batch reporting controls dosing, dispersion, milling, standardisation and filling, with filtration and quality-control sampling points built into the line.
How do I size and select the right paint production line?
Start by defining product families, annual output, batch sizes, formulation routes and packaging. Then size dispersion, milling, mixing, filtration, storage and filling from your production schedule, and confirm utilities, solvent zoning, automation level, cleaning strategy, building constraints and future expansion.
Does POLYC provide installation, commissioning and future expansion support?
Yes. POLYC delivers line design, equipment manufacturing, installation and commissioning as one package, including steel-structure construction and pipeline installation, and engineers layout, utilities and future expansion together so the line grows with your business.
