Automated Coating Services
High-volume production on our automatic conveyor line.
Our heavy-duty automatic powder coating conveyor line handles materials up to 800 linear ft. and carries over 500 lbs. per linear foot, delivering consistent, high-volume production for contract manufacturing.
Quick answer
Automated Coating Services is selected by matching the coating or preparation method to the substrate, service environment, performance specification and production requirements. PPC reviews the complete finishing system before recommending a process.
Consistency at scale
Automated application ensures uniform film build and finish across large runs while keeping turnaround times fast.
For batch work, our systems accommodate up to 5,000 lbs. and we can handle up to 25,000 lbs. effortlessly.
Common applications
- Repeat OEM components
- Large production runs
- Contract-manufactured metal parts
- Programs requiring consistent finish control
Specification considerations
- Part envelope and hanging method
- Line loading and annual volume
- Changeover and colour schedule
- Inspection and packaging plan
Technical planning table
Final values are project-specific. These are the inputs PPC confirms before approving a production process.
| Technical input | What PPC confirms |
|---|---|
| Substrate & condition | Material, fabrication method, contamination, corrosion and existing finish. |
| Preparation | Cleaning, stripping, blasting or chemical pretreatment required by the specification. |
| Coating system | Powder chemistry, colour, gloss, texture, film build and cure window. |
| Critical surfaces | Masking, threads, grounding/contact areas, tolerances and no-coat zones. |
| Verification | Inspection, test method, acceptance limits, sampling and documentation. |
| Production & logistics | Quantity, line fit, racking, handling, packaging, freight and delivery cadence. |
From specification to shipment
How PPC plans the work
Review
Confirm the drawing, substrate, part condition, quantity, end use and governing performance requirements.
Prepare
Select cleaning, stripping, blasting or chemical pretreatment appropriate to the substrate and specification.
Apply & cure
Control coating application, film build, grounding and cure around the approved process window.
Inspect & protect
Verify agreed acceptance criteria, document results when required, then package the finish for shipment.

Complete project information helps PPC assess feasibility, select the correct process and return a useful quotation.
- Part drawings, dimensions, weight and substrate
- Quantity, annual volume and production schedule
- Current surface condition and existing finish
- Required coating, colour, gloss and texture
- Performance specification and test requirements
- Masking, critical surfaces and tolerance notes
- Packaging, labelling, freight and delivery needs
Frequently asked questions
What information is needed to quote automated coating services?
Send the substrate, part dimensions and weight, quantity, drawings or photographs, current surface condition, colour and finish, applicable specification, masking requirements, test requirements and requested timing.
How does PPC select the right process for automated coating services?
PPC evaluates the part, exposure, performance criteria and production needs. The proposed preparation, coating chemistry, film build, cure and inspection plan are then aligned with the approved project specification.
Can testing and documentation be included?
Yes, where required by the purchase order or specification. Identify the applicable standard, acceptance limits, sampling plan and reporting needs during quoting so they can be reviewed and included in the process plan.
Does PPC handle large or repeat production work?
PPC operates a 75,000 sq. ft. Toronto facility with automated and batch capabilities. Part envelope, weight, racking, volume and delivery cadence are confirmed during feasibility review.
