Conveyor Cure Ovens for Georgia Finishing Lines
A conveyor cure oven never closes its doors. Parts enter one end and leave the other at line speed, so the oven has to hold temperature with permanent openings while the load changes constantly. That makes air seals, burner control and exhaust balance central to how it performs. Double D Mechanical installs, relocates and connects conveyor cure ovens for Georgia coating lines.

Electrical equipment manufacturing in Georgia, including the Virginia Transformer plant in Rincon, adds to the volume of coated steel moving through conveyorized lines in the state. Enclosures, panels and brackets in steady production are well suited to a conveyor oven, where consistent dwell time gives a consistent cure from first part to last.
Openings, Air Seals and Heat Loss
The entrance and exit openings are where conveyor ovens lose heat and where problems start. Air seals push heated air across the opening to contain the oven atmosphere. When seals are mis-set, hot air spills into the plant or cool air pulls in. Building drafts near the openings, from make-up air units or open doors, make seals work harder. We set and balance seals at startup and look at building air around the oven.
Connection Scope on a Line Oven
Installing a conveyor oven involves more than the oven panels.
- Gas train and piping sized for burner input
- Exhaust stack and roof penetration
- Air seal fans and dampers
- Recirculation fans and ductwork
- Conveyor penetrations and support
- Controls integration with the line
Shutdown Windows and Retrofits
Many Georgia oven projects happen in plants that are already running, during planned shutdowns. We prepare ahead of time so the shutdown is used for work that cannot be done with the line running: cutting in new gas connections, extending the oven, or replacing burners and fans.
Planning a booth or oven project in Georgia
Crews mobilize from Houston; Georgia is roughly 700 miles away, so equipment, panels and tooling are staged and shipped ahead of the install crew.
Manufacturing in Georgia is concentrated around Atlanta, Savannah, Augusta, and Columbus. The sectors most likely to be specifying spray booths, blast rooms, powder systems and cure ovens there include automotive assembly and EV, aerospace, transportation equipment, and heavy machinery.
Hot, humid summers and mild winters put the emphasis on make-up air cooling or tempering, filter change schedules and keeping intake away from loading doors.
Frequently asked questions
Why does our oven spill heat at the entrance?
Air seals that are out of adjustment, an exhaust imbalance or drafts in the building near the opening are common causes.
Can a conveyor oven be lengthened?
Often, by adding panel sections. Burner capacity, conveyor path and building space must accommodate the extension.
How is the oven connected to the conveyor?
The conveyor passes through openings at each end, with supports inside. Oven and conveyor installation are coordinated so the track aligns.
What maintenance does a conveyor oven need?
Burner service, fan and belt checks, air seal adjustment, control calibration and exhaust inspection.
