Visibly superior – in every shade
And in the paint and coatings industry, every shade matters. That’s exactly why we deliver plant technology that doesn’t overlook a single nuance—whether it’s specialized discharge aids, precisely coordinated filtration systems, customized conveying solutions, or ultra-accurate weighing and dosing technologies. With solutions from Zeppelin Systems, you gain expert knowledge that truly shows—most of all in your results.

Process solutions for paint production

Tailored storage, efficient discharge
Professionals know: storing raw materials is the first major challenge in paint production. Specifications often include parameters such as the appropriate discharge angle, which must be calculated with consideration of wall friction coefficients, or the correct sizing of silos. Our paint industry experts support you every step of the way – including selecting the ideal discharge system.
Our portfolio of in-house developed components ranges from mechanical discharge aids like vibrating floors to pneumatic systems such as aeration cones and fluidized beds. Many options, one goal: fast, efficient discharge that avoids bridging and material sticking, and the most complete emptying possible of all recipe components.

Reliable removal and separation
Whether from sacks, big bags or octabins: to keep the feeding of raw materials as dust-free as possible, we at Zeppelin Systems rely on high-performance filter and aspiration systems. The former can be designed with the right material specifications to meet your requirements, depending on factors such as raw materials and product throughput.
Jet filters with automatic pneumatic cleaning return separated material to the process and can thereby reduce material losses. The aspiration systems, in contrast, operate with negative pressure and, in a downstream function, support the separation of any remaining dust particles.

Gentle feeding, flexible conveying
Precise conveying in the paint industry starts with the right feeding, and that means selecting the right rotary valve.
Zeppelin Systems offers a wide portfolio of rotary valve variants, enabling you to gently and accurately feed your specific product into the conveying line. And when we say specific, we mean it: pneumatic conveying can also be perfectly tailored to your application thanks to our advanced technologies.
Whether you require dilute-phase conveying under positive or negative pressure, secondary air systems, or dense-phase plug conveying – your needs determine the setup. The same applies to material selection: in addition to metal pipelines, we also offer rubber-lined conveying lines for handling sensitive materials such as certain grades of titanium dioxide that tend to stick to metallic surfaces.

Error-free weighing and dosing
No tolerance for tolerances! Staying true to this principle, Zeppelin Systems has developed ultra-precise weighing and dosing systems – for everything from minor ingredients to pigments and binders. Depending on your specific requirements, you can rely on fully automated systems for small components or high-performance weighing solutions for dosing poorly flowing powdered raw materials.
By adding a dedicated weighing unit for individual materials, our systems achieve exceptionally low tolerances – both for additives and bulk components. When feeding powdered materials into the dissolver, Zeppelin’s frequency-controlled dosing screws truly shine. They enable rapid feeding while meeting the exact processing demands of the mixing phase.
A special highlight: our custom-designed twin-outlet dosing screw, which allows materials to be conveyed into two separate dissolvers via clockwise or counterclockwise rotation – ensuring maximum flexibility and efficiency in your production line.
