Our range of paint stripping tanks allows to effectively remove paint from both ferrous metals and light alloys without compromising their surfaces.

Fastrip T5 is the range of paint stripping tanks with a capacity of 800 litres, developed by ALIT Technologies, which combines sturdiness, flexibility and process efficiency and allows to efficiently remove paint from hooks, frames or pieces to be recovered, whether they are of ferrous metals or light alloys, without compromising their surfaces.

Fastrip T5 is built on the concept of “tank within a tank”: the sealed external tank also serves a safety basin for fluid containment. Furthermore, our systems – made in AISI-304 – are equipped with a separate self-supporting plug-and-play touchscreen control panel and fully programmable cycle parameters.

The Fastrip T5 system is available in three versions, which combine a chemical and mechanical action for optimal stripping:

• T5-US with ultrasound technology;
• T5-MIX with a mechanical mixer;
• T5-MT with a series of tanks in parallel with gantry-type handling.

The paint stripping process is optimized by the use of paint strippers from our Metalstrip Up&Down range.

Fastrip T5 is the range of paint stripping tanks with a capacity of 800 litres, which combines sturdiness, flexibility and process efficiency for an optimal stripping result.

On the November 2020 issue of the specialized magazine ipcm® International Paint&Coating Magazine, an article about the Fastrip T5 paint stripping tanks has been published. Fastrip T5 allows to efficiently remove paint from hooks, frames or pieces to be recovered, whether they are of ferrous metals or light alloys, without compromising their surfaces.

The Fastrip T5 system is available in three versions:

• T5-US with ultrasound technology;
• T5-MIX with a mechanical mixer;
• T5-MT with a series of tanks in parallel with gantry-type handling.

The article was also published in Spanish and Portuguese on the November issue of ipcm® Ibérica e ipcm® LatinoAmérica.

On occasion of the CoatVex virtual fair event, Fastrip T5 by ALIT is featured on the pages of Verniciatura Industriale.

Fastrip T5 allows effective paint removal from both ferrous metals and light alloys, without compromising their surface.

The Fastrip T5 systems are all built on the concept of “tank within a tank”, thanks to which the sealed external tank also serves a safety basin for fluid containment. They all feature an integrated electric heating system and combine both mechanical and chemical actions together. 

Fastrip T5 is equipped with a separate self-supporting plug-and-play touchscreen control panel and fully programmable cycle parameters. Its sturdiness is ensured by the building materials, including AISI 304, while maximum comfort of use is guaranteed by a professional design. 

The system is perfectly insulated from all sides and equipped with an interlock cover and set up for the fume extraction. 

ALIT Technologies also offers extra option such as customizable workpiece holders and a fume extraction system.

The lockdown due to the pandemic did not stop ALIT Technologies’ team, who managed to complete the project for an in-line paint stripping machine, commissioned by a customer from Eastern Europe, despite the international travel restrictions.

During the health emergency of the first months of this year, an important Eastern European company contacted Alit Technologies for the design and installation of a system for the in-line paint stripping of hooks, to be integrated into a vertical coating line with a capacity of 2.2 m/min. 

“Although we received this request during the most critical period of the pandemic, that is, when national  and international travel was completely forbidden,” says Rossi, “with the collaboration of the entire technical team of Alit Technologies, working through remote connection, we were able to provide the customer with the optimal solution. Finally, in September, we supplied them with a tank type 1600, among the largest in terms of size of the ISP range”, explains ALIT’s CEO Loris Rossi on the pages of ipcm® International Paint&Coating Magazine.

Characteristics of the in-line paint stripping system

The system supplied consists of a horizontal tank from the 1600 series, made entirely of AISI 304 stainless steel with dimensions of 8400 x 700 mm. The conveyor runs above the tank for the in-line handling of coating hooks and frames. These are immersed and let move inside the paint stripping bath for a variable time of about 3 minutes. While still hanging onto the chain, the hooks come out of the chemical bath without any paint residue and they can be immediately reused for a new coating cycle.

“This plant, designed remotely by our staff, has a few particularly innovative features, that is, the ultrasound devices that we managed to integrate directly on the tank walls and the filter press with a vibratory hopper. This feeds the decanter for the use of a new flocculate called AlitFlock 4840, developed

by us to make the stripping sludge mass much drier”, explains Loris Rossi. 

Finally, in order to optimise the operation of the paint stripping system and achieve the results requested by the customer, ALIT Technologies formulated and developed some special products that are free from NMP (N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone), which have already successfully passed the necessary laboratory tests.
