QX Spray Booth Manufacturer introduces the common types of spray booths available on the market to help you make an informed decision.
Cross-flow spray booth
Working principle:
Air enters from one side and flows horizontally, carrying excess paint mist to the filtration system on the opposite side for discharge.
Features:
Low investment, simple installation and maintenance. The paint mist may pass through the workpiece production area. It is suitable for workshops with general environmental requirements and offers average coating quality.
Semi-downward suction spray booth
Working principle:
Airflow moves from top to bottom. Part of it is discharged from below the workpiece, while the rest is discharged from the side.
Features:
More reasonable airflow distribution, improved working environment, moderate investment, and low construction difficulty. Provides relatively high coating quality.
Side suction spray booth
Working principle:
Air is discharged through side or bottom exhaust systems. Paint mist is collected and removed through suction openings on the side walls, followed by filtration and purification.
Features:
Compact size and lower operating costs. However, the single airflow direction may lead to incomplete removal of paint mist. It is generally suitable for small workpieces and provides average coating quality.
Under-suction spray booth
Working principle:
Air flows vertically downward from the top, in the same direction as gravity, effectively removing excess paint mist and creating a clean and safe working environment.
Features:
Provides the most uniform and stable airflow among all spray booth types. Ensures high coating quality and efficient removal of paint mist for filtration. Suitable for high production standards and strict environmental requirements. However, energy consumption is relatively higher than that of other types.
