Indianapolis, Ind., June 22, 2007 — ITW Gema’s Magic Compact™ booth is specifically designed for automatic powder coating operations with XTreme Color Change Environments™.
The Magic Compact’s Luminaire™ upper structure, built of a non-conductive and smooth material, leads to improved transfer efficiency and less powder on the walls. Downdraft technology and a unique Twin-Air Deck™ design virtually eliminates build-up of oversprayed powder. This configuration minimizes powder accumulation in the booth cabin, reduces cleaning time, and enables faster changeovers from one color to the next. In fact, ITW Gema has proven that fast color changes can be achieved time after time!
Another feature of the Magic Compact’s booth that facilitates quick color changes is the seamless design of the interior cabin walls and ductwork. This substantially minimizes the risk of color contamination and makes cleaning and maintenance of the ductwork virtually non-existent. To further reduce cleaning hassles, the advanced mono-cyclone of the Magic Compact has a built-in sieve that screens out contaminates, making clean-up a snap. The unit also utilizes dense-phase transport technology for improved material handling.
ITW Gema also offers ancillary equipment that can further improve the functionality of the Magic Compact. One of ITW Gema’s most effective XTreme Machines™ is the Chameleon Color Management System™. The Chameleon uses PLC intelligence to automate cleaning by pulsing compressed air over the gun exterior and throughout the powder path. This process cleans so effectively that color contamination is virtually a thing of the past!
 XTreme Color Change Environments also need the assurance of repeatable results. Coupling ITW Gema’s latest technology in automatic gun control, the OptiFlex™, with the Magic Compact booth makes this a reality. The OptiFlex system consists of the OptiGun® Automatic Powder Gun with integrated cascade power supply and 100,000 volts of FirstPass Power™, the OptiStar™ Advanced Control Unit with unmatched program storage capacity, and the OptiFlow™ High Performance Powder Pump that ensures uniform powder delivery for every application. With the OptiFlex system’s individually programmable coating parameters, generating reproducible and uniform coating results at all times is now possible.
ITW Gema continues to be a pioneer in the powder coating industry and a global distributor of superior quality powder coating equipment. As a business unit of the Illinois Tool Works Corporation, ITW Gema operates its North American Headquarters from Indianapolis, Indiana.
