WolfRayet

At WolfRayet our mission is to apply design and technology to manufacturing. We deliver complete systems for powder coating heat sensitive substrates as well as gel and full cure ovens for the metal industry. The WolfRayet Galaxy Lyte system is an easy to use, entry level oven. It allows low volume coaters to achieve a high quality coating finish. Galaxy Lyte systems will work on heat sensitive substrates such MDF and engineered timber as well as metal substrates. It is ideal for single coat or powder priming prior to a liquid topcoat. The Galaxy Lyte system has an extremely small plant footprint. With low operating costs, it is a dual purpose system, ideal for both heat sensitive and metal parts. Galaxy Lyte utilizes a gas catalytic IR preheat oven followed by manual powder application delivering a cost effective and efficient production process. The WolfRayet Galaxy 6, 8 and 10 systems are designed for medium to large scale operations – the 6, 8 & 10 refers to the line speed in feet per minute. The system is completely customizable depending on the output requirements and the plant space available. Part size is not an issue. The systems can process small complex parts like draw fronts to large 8’ x 4’ sheet material. Each will receive a consistent, quality coat and cure. Our technology also ensures that the structure of the substrate is never compromised and the system has efficient load, preheat, coat, cure, cool down and unload areas. Gas Catalytic IR technology is at the heart of our PLC controlled systems for both the Galaxy Lyte and Galaxy series. This high tech, low operating cost solution, delivers a perfect, cost effective cure. Our systems are designed to integrate seamlessly with all equipment and powder manufacturers and we collaborated with partners in these areas to develop our unique approach. This includes powder application, curing and overhead conveyors. Check out our exciting new Galaxy ovens and talk with technical experts to discover how to reduce costs, increases efficiencies, improve your coating and sustainability footprint AND futureproof your line to coat metal and heat sensitive substrates.
