Spindle Pro is part of the Binks chain-on-edge family (Spindle Master II, Spindle Pro, Spindle King and Spindle Boss) and is engineered for liquid or powder applications.
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).
