Manufacturer:
Spindle Boss is part of the Binks chain-on-edge family (Spindle Master II, Spindle Pro, Spindle King and Spindle Boss). Standardized modular components shorten delivery schedules and make installation easy and configurations flexible. It is engineered for liquid or powder applications with continuous, indexing and combination motion.
Binks pairs its chain-on-edge conveyors with its infrared and convection curing equipment so the conveyor and oven are matched to part weight, size, line speed and coating. See the Binks Chain-on-Edge Conveyor brochure (04-508-01).
