About this industry
An automotive coating line is a run of heat zones — composite body panels curing under long-wave panels, paint and powder flashing off in fast-response zones, forced-air panels driving cure through the part, and a hot-stamping press whose blank temperature you want to watch. Prater Technical Partners supplies that heat layer end to end: Solar Products medium-wave infrared panel heaters — the F, T, Q, FBA, and M/G/V families across composite curing, paint and powder-coat zones, forced-air curing, and high-power metal-face zones, with custom OEM panels built to your drawing — and ThermoView thermal imaging for press-hardening temperature monitoring. Prater Technical works with you to spec each one from the substrate, the line speed, and the drawing.
