ITW Gema's MAGIC CENTER® POWDER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR XTREME COLOR CHANGE ENVIRONMENTS™

Indianapolis, Ind., October 23, 2008 — Making multiple color changes in an 8 hour shift? ITW Gema's NEW Magic Center^® is the perfect powder management system to achieve XTreme Productivity™!

The revolutionary Magic Center is the best color management system available for powder coating. Included in the system are the application controls, the gun mover axis controls and the fresh powder supply. The fully automatic cleaning process reduces color change times significantly and the Magic Center is quick to install and easy to operate!

The OptiSpeeder^® is the heart of the
Magic Center and combines the powder feed and cleaning functions into one compact unit. The OptiSpeeder’s improved fluidization and low maintenance pumps deliver powder to the guns using less compressed air, resulting in a softer powder cloud for improved transfer efficiency. During the Magic Center's automated cleaning, the OptiSpeeder empties the remaining powder for reuse, and purges the pumps and all of the powder hoses... quickly and efficiently. Because the OptiSpeeder is a completely sealed and closed system – this is a dustless process! The "one-button cleaning operation" allows one operator to complete a total color change in 10 minutes or less!

The Magic Center Powder Management System is a complement to ITW Gema's Magic Cylinder^® and Magic Compact^® powder coating booths. All powder coating system controls are integrated into the Magic Center's compact design, making it the ideal color management solution for the Magic Series™ booths. With its advanced "one-button" automated cleaning process, color changes are streamlined and times are cut significantly. The Magic Center is easily integrated into any configuration, whether automatic, pre-coating, touch-up stations or any combination. Almost any solution is possible!
