BACKGROUND
Finished blast booth with oscillating cross conveyor.
Tronair is a world-leading manufacturer of aircraft ground support equipment. Located in Toledo, OH, Tronair experienced rapid growth with recent acquisitions. They purchased a new facility to manufacture and transport equipment from three other locations.
Tronair needed to convert its 120,000 sq ft facility into an efficient manufacturing center. Their goal was to see a 50% increase in productivity compared to previous facilities. Additionally, Tronair wanted multiple blasters working at a given time.
SOLUTION
Proposal drawing of the finishing facility.
BlastOne designed and engineered a custom blasting and painting facility for Tronair.
It included the following elements:
Custom abrasive blast room
Built-in abrasive recovery system
Unique paint cure mode to apply automotive finishes equipped in paint booth
RESULTS
We designed the finishing facility in line with the rest of Tronair’s manufacturing equipment. The design allows for a seamless production process. We completed the overall project within 16 weeks.
Tronair’s newly minted finishing facilities can blast and paint three different brands of ground support equipment under one roof.
