Nordson Paint Booth Relocation
Relocating a Nordson booth requires more than moving panels from one footprint to another. Double D Mechanical reviews the existing booth arrangement, dismantling sequence, rigging path, new production flow, exhaust route, make-up air, electrical service, compressed air and maintenance access before reconnection.

Pre-Move Equipment Mapping
Before dismantling, the booth, fan, filters, controls, duct connections and utility tie-ins should be documented. Marking panels, fasteners and connection points helps the equipment go back together in the intended order.
- Record existing clearances and airflow components.
- Photograph control, air and exhaust interfaces.
- Identify pieces that need special handling or temporary storage.
New Booth Position and Part Travel
The new location has to fit the workpiece, rack or cart movement, operator approach and staging on both sides of the booth. Door swing, conveyor alignment and floor condition can change the practical footprint.
Rebuilt Exhaust and Air Supply Paths
Relocation usually changes the duct route, fan support, discharge location and make-up air relationship. Double D Mechanical coordinates these items with nearby trades so overhead work does not block lighting, sprinklers or maintenance aisles.
Start-Up Readiness Items
Before restart, the team should confirm filters, seals, access panels, utility labels, control connections, fan rotation and the work area around the booth. Any damaged or missing components should be identified before production depends on the equipment.
Frequently asked questions
What has to be checked before relocating a Nordson booth?
Key items include the existing booth layout, component condition, utility locations, duct route, move path, new footprint, part flow and access for service.
Can the same exhaust ductwork be reused?
Some components may fit the new layout, but route, support, discharge location and connection geometry should be reviewed before assuming reuse.
How does relocation affect production flow?
A new location can change staging, cart turns, conveyor alignment, operator travel and how finished parts leave the booth area.
What information helps plan the move?
Provide equipment drawings, photos, floor plans, ceiling height, utility notes, roof or wall conditions and any limits on shutdown windows.
