In April 2019, a high-end automotive coating production line of a multinational coatings enterprise in Shenyang was successfully completed and officially put into production. This is something to celebrate for Nova. After more than half a year of multi-party work, the project has finally been completed. This project witnessed the efforts of the Nova’s staff and will also become a witness in the development of Nova. Thanks to the trust of the customers, Nova finally lived up to its promise and delivered satisfactorily.

The automotive coating production line is the most advanced in the domestic market. Its scientific industrial manufacturing design, fully enclosed automated production line, and emission control all reflect the concept of advanced manufacturing and sustainable production. The whole set of equipment has passed the high-intensity testing of German technical engineers, and the quality has been highly recognized by German customers.

The core equipment of the entire production line includes:

1. Single equipment includes: Laboratory pneumatic mixer, small vertical mixer, aluminum powder mixer, small batch dissolution tank, and horizontal sand mill. The first multi-functional rail mixer in China can be matched with a variety of cylinder cleaning systems.

2. Automatic batching formula system and supporting large-scale mixing and dispersing equipment. The control part adopts a CPU based on Siemens S7-400 dual redundancy and a high standard DCS system - Siemens PCS7.

3. High standard multi-layer anti-leakage buried storage tank and corresponding anti-leakage control system.

4. The world's leading ADU color matching system. The control core adopts the S7-1500 series CPU. Its recipe system can send commands directly via DCS either locally or remotely.

5. High standard full-process monitoring of large screen monitoring center room and high specification power room.
