Thermoplastic Paint Machine Working Principle
- Material preparation and melting process: Powder thermoplastic paint is first poured into the thermoplastic kettle and heated to the ideal working temperature of 180°C–210°C. The double-layer stainless steel structure of the kettle ensures rapid and even heating, while the plug-in manual stirring device keeps the paint uniformly heated, preventing localized overheating or burning.
- Precise coating technology: The molten coating flows into the marking hopper through a dedicated delivery system. Operators can adjust the opening size of the hopper to precisely control marking widths from 50mm to 450mm. This thermoplastic striping machine ensures clean edges, consistent thickness, and perfectly shaped lines.
- Reflective application system: While marking, the built-in glass bead dispensing system synchronously spreads glass beads evenly across the marking surface. These beads embed into the coating at a 45° refractive angle, providing strong retro-reflective performance and significantly enhancing nighttime visibility and safety.
Advantages of the Thermoplastic Paint Machine
- Excellent marking quality and durability: Thermoplastic markings have a thickness of 1.5–2.0mm, offering strong raised visibility and exceptional abrasion resistance. Their service life can reach 2–4 years, far exceeding ordinary cold paint markings. This durability greatly reduces long-term maintenance and reapplication costs.
- High construction efficiency: A single thermoplastic paint machine can complete 500–1500 m² of markings per workday, depending on operator skill and road conditions. The 48V lithium battery power system enables the equipment to work continuously for 24 hours after 5 hours of charging, meeting high-intensity construction needs.
- Outstanding operational convenience: The rear direction-control device ensures smooth straight-line travel or turning on curves, while the drum brake system with adjustable tension enhances safety. The directional wheel design also improves mobility and stability—significant advantages for any road marking machine for sale.
Thermoplastic Paint Machine Application Scenarios
- Highways and main roads: On highways, national roads, and provincial roads, thermoplastic markings are preferred for their excellent reflectivity and durability. These locations have strict marking standards, requiring a thermoplastic paint machine to create uniform, long-lasting reflective lines.
- Urban roads and public areas: Urban road edges, pedestrian crossings, and directional arrows need highly visible and durable markings. Thermoplastic markings withstand heavy traffic and harsh weather while maintaining long-term clarity.
- Special and dedicated areas: Parking lots, industrial areas, residential communities, docks, and airports all require high-quality markings. The adjustable 50mm–450mm marking width offered by a thermoplastic road marking paint machine perfectly meets the diverse needs of these locations.
Operational Tips and Professional Construction Advice
- Precise temperature control: Maintain the coating temperature between 180°C–210°C during construction. Use the thermometer to monitor temperature in real time and adjust the three fire-path control valves to regulate heat. Too low a temperature results in poor flow; too high may cause paint decomposition.
- Material ratio and handling: Follow a 4:0.1:0.3 ratio for thermoplastic paint, primer, and glass beads (1 ton of paint + 1 bucket of primer + 4 bags of glass beads). Use the hopper lid stirring handle to thoroughly mix materials—an essential step to ensure superior marking quality.
- Construction speed and rhythm: Adjust the machine’s travel speed between 1–8 km/h based on required width and thickness. Maintaining a steady speed ensures uniform coating thickness, while synchronizing glass bead dispensing with travel speed ensures consistent reflectivity. For users seeking a road marking machine for sale, these operational details are equally important.
