A New Standard in Surface Finishing: Our New State-of-the-Art Painting Department

At Lämnea Bruk, continuous process optimization is a key driver of our company philosophy. With the commissioning of our new painting department last month, we are taking a significant step forward in surface finishing technology, combining automation, process control, and workplace safety at the highest level.

Engineered for High-Performance Surface Finishing

The new facility has been designed to meet the increasing demands for consistency, scalability, and efficiency in industrial coating applications. Every process step—from surface preparation to final coating—has been optimized to ensure repeatable, high-quality results under controlled conditions.

Increased Automation for Process Stability and Throughput

A core element of the new department is the integration of automated process steps throughout the coating workflow. Automated handling and application systems reduce manual intervention, resulting in improved process stability and reproducibility.

This enables:

• Higher throughput with reduced cycle times
• Consistent coating thickness and surface quality
• Lower variability between production batches

Precision Paint Dosing and Mixing Technology

The new department is equipped with a state-of-the-art automated paint dosing and mixing system, enabling highly accurate formulation and repeatability of coating materials.

Key advantages include:

• Precise dosing ratios for consistent coating properties
• Digital control and traceability of paint formulations
• Reduced material waste and optimized resource utilization
• Reliable color consistency across all production runs

This level of precision is essential for meeting strict quality requirements and supporting both standard and customized coating specifications.

Enhanced Workplace Safety and Ergonomics

In parallel with process improvements, the new painting department has been designed with a strong focus on occupational safety and ergonomics. Modern ventilation and filtration systems ensure controlled air quality, while optimized layouts and handling systems reduce physical strain and operational risk.

Safety enhancements include:

• High-efficiency air extraction and filtration
• Clearly defined process zones and material flows
• Ergonomically optimized workstations
• Improved handling and transport systems

These measures contribute to a safer, more efficient working environment and support consistent operational performance.

Delivering Measurable Value

The new painting department significantly enhances our production capabilities. Customers benefit from shorter lead times, improved coating consistency, and the ability to handle more complex and demanding specifications.

This investment reinforces our commitment to delivering high-quality, reliable solutions for wire production through continuous technological advancement.
