Polin-AC is a new reality in the world of bodywork. At Autopromotec it presents the evolution of AirForce, with all the advantages that have made it successful since its launch, and with the further technical evolutions developed.

The birth of Polin-AC, a new company created by Polin and Aria-C, came at the end of a planned integration process, and after a long collaboration in the field of cabs and preparation zones.

At the pavilions of Autopromotec, Polin-AC presents itself with many novelties, immediately demonstrating that the union of the two companies has triggered an acceleration on the level of technological research dedicated to cabs and preparation zones.

AirForce, the booth presented two years ago precisely in Bologna, will be on display with the further technical evolutions developed, including the inclusion of new-generation backward blade turbine air generators and the possibility of integrating short-wave infrared lamps, controlled by dedicated software, on the walls.

Of course, all the advantages that have made AirForce so successful to date will also be appreciated and which the visitor will be able to experience first-hand.

First of all, the construction aspects of a robust and rational cabin, with double-sheet walls insulated with 60 mm rockwool, the portal with large mirrored glass panes that reflect the heat, and the massive aluminium hinges to ensure perfect closure over time. The modular construction allows great flexibility in size, adapting to the space available in the bodyshop.

The standard LED lighting system is customisable, allowing the bodyshop to choose the positioning of the lights according to his needs and working methods.

In the cab the air flow is perfectly calibrated and when drying it envelops the vehicle, bringing heat to every point of the bodyshell evenly.

In terms of consumption, the great energy saving ensured by AirForce, obtained without compromising on performance, is the result of a set of design and construction choices: air-generator heating system with cross-flow heat recovery; 100% air vein combustion that avoids any waste and allows the temperature to be reached in a short time; fan motors with inverter start-up to avoid consumption peaks and a self-regulation system that controls operation in relation to the use of the paint spray gun.

There are also many innovations in terms of the functions enabled by the control software, which is managed by a computerised system: remote diagnostics, predictive maintenance, consumption optimisation and interconnection with bodywork management systems in order to optimise workflow and the reception/processing of consumption data.

Polin-AC will also unveil important developments for preparation areas at Autopromotec 2017 in Bologna, with a patent-protected innovation that will become a reference for the market: something that all evolved body shops will demand in the future.
