MC/WB-300R Vacuum Coater – Water based 360-degree coating featuring 99% transfer efficiency, paired with Infra-Red (IR), Lateral, and Gas Fired Ovens for coat and dry applications.

Our STM Series Water Based Vacuum Coaters are designed to automate the coating of a full range of metal tube and pipe products with waterbased paints, stains, and protective finishes with maximum uniformity and 99% transfer efficiency.

The system consists of a separation tower, vacuum producer, control panel, and a unique application chamber. This application chamber, featuring our “Free Flow Technology”, enhances coating consistency at lower vacuum pressures. This lessens energy consumption, while permitting higher feed speeds. The chamber is also designed for quick, tool-free changeover, resulting in maximized production up-time. The programmable logic controller (PLC) driven system interlocks with machines in line, enabling process integration.

Drying ovens, in combination with the vacuum coaters, include lateral, gas fired, infra-red (IR) and more. When drying vacuum coated materials often a flash off period is needed, allowing the water to evaporate, leaving only the dyes/pigments which color the work piece. After the flash off, heat is introduced to dry what has previously evaporated. Stanza Machinery manufactures ovens to meet speed, production, and coating requirements.

Our STM Series Vacuum Coating equipment is designed and manufactured in the USA and is customizable with a range of options and special configurations to suit your production line needs.

What is the STANZA MACHINERY MC/WB-300R Tube & Pipe Coater?

The STANZA MACHINERY MC/WB-300R Tube & Pipe Coater is an automated coating system designed to apply water-based finishes evenly to cylindrical components such as tubes, pipes, rails, posts, and round profiles with consistent film build and minimal waste.

What types of applications is the MC/WB-300R best suited for?

The MC/WB-300R is ideal for coating round and tubular parts used in furniture manufacturing, cabinetry, architectural millwork, stair systems, railings, and decorative wood or composite components.

What materials can the MC/WB-300R Tube & Pipe Coater process?

The system is commonly used on solid wood, MDF, veneered components, and engineered substrates formed into cylindrical or round profiles.

What type of coatings does the MC/WB-300R use?

The MC/WB-300R is designed specifically for water-based (WB) coatings, including sealers, stains, primers, and topcoats commonly used in environmentally conscious finishing operations.

How does a tube and pipe coater work?

The MC/WB-300R applies finish while rotating the part, ensuring 360-degree uniform coverage around the entire circumference. Controlled application eliminates uneven build, drips, and striping commonly associated with manual spraying.

How does the MC/WB-300R compare to manual spray finishing?

Compared to manual spray finishing, the MC/WB-300R delivers greater consistency, reduced material waste, lower labor requirements, and repeatable finish quality, especially on round parts that are difficult to coat evenly by hand.

Why is water-based coating preferred for tube and pipe applications?

Water-based coatings offer low VOC emissions, improved environmental compliance, easier cleanup, and consistent appearance, making them well suited for cylindrical parts processed in high volumes.

Who should consider the MC/WB-300R Tube & Pipe Coater?

The MC/WB-300R is ideal for furniture manufacturers, millwork shops, stair and railing producers, and specialty component manufacturers that regularly finish round or tubular parts.

Is the MC/WB-300R suitable for production environments?

Yes. The MC/WB-300R is engineered for mid-to-high production environments, providing dependable performance and consistent results across large batches of cylindrical components.

Can the MC/WB-300R be integrated into an automated finishing line?

Yes. The MC/WB-300R can be integrated with conveyors, drying ovens, material handling systems, and downstream automation, creating a continuous and efficient finishing workflow.

How does the MC/WB-300R improve finish consistency?

By controlling part rotation, coating flow, and application speed, the MC/WB-300R removes operator variability and delivers uniform film thickness on every part, shift after shift.

Does the MC/WB-300R reduce labor requirements?

Yes. Automating the coating process reduces the need for skilled spray labor and allows operators to oversee multiple processes simultaneously, improving overall labor efficiency.

Is the MC/WB-300R environmentally efficient?

Yes. Water-based coatings combined with controlled application result in lower emissions, reduced waste, and cleaner operation compared to traditional spray booths.

How does the MC/WB-300R differ from flat-panel vacuum coaters?

Unlike vacuum coaters designed for flat or profiled panels, the MC/WB-300R is engineered specifically for round and cylindrical parts, using rotation rather than vacuum pressure to achieve uniform coverage.

Is financing available for the STANZA MACHINERY MC/WB-300R Tube & Pipe Coater?

Yes. Flexible financing options are available through Centex Automation, allowing manufacturers to invest in specialized coating automation while managing capital expenditures.
