Paint Booth Design Glossary
Content trust and applicability
Engineering guidance for robotic spray painting, paint booths, paint supply systems, and production-scope decisions.
Best used for early-stage feasibility checks, vendor comparison, scope definition, and internal project alignment.
Final specifications still depend on coating chemistry, part family, takt, utilities, site layout, local code, and EHS review.
Based on TD engineering team experience, recurring project delivery patterns, and equipment-integration practice.
Curated booth-design terms including airflow, overspray, filtration, and flash-off.
Booth Airflow
The direction, speed, and stability of air movement inside the booth.
Why it matters: It is the anchor term behind booth design, finish quality, and overspray capture.
Overspray
Paint that does not land on the target part and loads the booth environment.
Why it matters: Booth sizing and filtration choices only make sense when overspray behavior is understood.
Flash-off Time
Time allowed for volatiles to leave the film before the next step.
Why it matters: Booth design decisions often affect the environment around flash-off and cure transitions.
Ventilation and airflow
The broader site-level airflow and exhaust rules that shape booth performance.
Why it matters: Many booth design questions become ventilation questions once the project reaches real facility constraints.
