KOCH Finishing Systems for Metal Furniture and Fixtures
Metal furniture frames, cabinet parts, shelving, display fixtures and welded bases need a finishing layout that protects appearance while keeping production moving. KOCH Finishing Systems equipment for powder coating lines and conveyor cure ovens can involve booth placement, oven setting, conveyor alignment, exhaust, make-up air, electrical service, gas piping and access for routine maintenance. Double D Mechanical installs, relocates and services the mechanical connections that support these finishing areas.

Frames, Panels And Hanging Points
Furniture and fixture parts often mix tubular frames, thin panels, brackets and shelves in the same finishing area. Layout planning should account for part swing, rack spacing, hook height, drain or blowoff needs and the clearance required for operators to load and unload without touching finished surfaces.
Conveyor Flow Through Coat And Cure
A powder line works best when the booth, oven, conveyor turns and cooling area match the plant's assembly sequence. The install should leave room for staging raw parts, moving coated parts toward final assembly and keeping touch-up or inspection areas out of forklift traffic.
Oven Air, Exhaust And Utility Routes
Conveyor cure ovens and powder booths need coordinated gas, electrical, compressed air, exhaust and replacement air routes. Roof penetrations, fan locations, heater access and control wiring should be reviewed with building structure and nearby production equipment in mind.
- Confirm the longest frame, widest panel and loaded rack height.
- Identify conveyor path, oven direction, load points and unload points.
- Have gas, electrical, compressed air and roof access information ready.
Maintenance Access Around A Busy Line
Filters, fan sections, burner compartments, doors, light fixtures and conveyor drives need service clearance after the system is in production. For a relocation, note panel condition, section sizes, conveyor splice points and which utilities must be isolated before removal.
Frequently asked questions
What should be measured for metal furniture finishing equipment?
Measure the longest frames, widest panels, loaded rack height, conveyor clearance, booth openings and the aisle space used for loading and unloading.
How does part mix affect a powder line layout?
A changing mix of frames, shelves and panels affects rack density, part swing, cure spacing, cooling area and the amount of staging needed before assembly.
What utilities are commonly reviewed before installation?
Gas, electrical service, compressed air, exhaust routing, make-up air and control wiring are typically reviewed before setting the booth, oven and conveyor equipment.
Can KOCH equipment be moved to a different plant area?
Relocation depends on section sizes, removal access, conveyor layout, equipment condition, roof or wall openings and available utility routes in the new location.
What helps before a site visit?
Part dimensions, layout drawings, photos, utility locations, roof access details and the expected production sequence help frame the installation review.
