Preparation Station, APP SPodium, TWEKO

The TWEKO APP SPodium preparation station is a professional solution for cleaning, sanding, filling, priming and polishing vehicle bodies and components. The station creates a localised working area with effective extraction of dust and contaminated air, providing comfortable working conditions and high-quality surface preparation before painting.

The key feature of the APP SPodium series is its solid steel platform structure. This configuration creates a straight downward airflow through the entire working area, providing uniform ventilation and helping the exhaust system efficiently remove dust and contaminants generated during preparation work.

Applications

• Surface cleaning
• Sanding
• Body filler application
• Priming
• Polishing
• Preparation of vehicle bodies and components before painting

Vertical Airflow

Filtered air is supplied through the ceiling system and travels vertically downward through the working area. This airflow pattern provides uniform ventilation around the product and helps direct dust and fine contaminants toward the exhaust system.

• Uniform airflow throughout the working area
• Effective dust removal during sanding and preparation
• Reduced spread of contaminants outside the station
• Improved conditions for surface preparation before painting

Ventilation and Filtration

The station is equipped with a high-capacity supply and exhaust ventilation system. EU5 ceiling filter cassettes clean the incoming air before it enters the working area, while the exhaust system actively removes dust and contaminated air.

Containing dust directly within the preparation area reduces contamination throughout the paint shop and helps reduce the load on the filtration system of the main spray booth.

Air Heating

• Supply-air heating for comfortable working conditions
• Diesel-fired burner
• Gas-fired burner
• Stable working conditions regardless of workshop temperature

Construction and Installation

• Durable solid steel platform structure
• Stationary design for intensive operation
• Ventilation ducts arranged according to the station configuration
• Ceiling system for filtered-air supply
• Dimensions can be adapted to specific workshop requirements

Standard Equipment

• Solid steel platform structure
• Supply and exhaust ventilation systems
• EU5 ceiling filter cassettes
• Contaminated-air filtration system
• Supply-air heating system
• Working-area containment system
• Automatic ventilation control

Main Benefits

• Vertical airflow: uniform downward airflow throughout the working area
• Effective dust removal: contaminants are actively extracted from the work zone
• Improved preparation quality: cleaner conditions reduce the risk of defects during subsequent painting
• Durable construction: steel platform designed for regular automotive workshop operation
• Controlled working environment: supply-air heating helps maintain comfortable conditions
• Reduced load on the spray booth: preliminary dust removal helps extend spray-booth filter life

Safety

• Construction made from non-combustible materials
• Explosion-protected fans and key ventilation components
• Automatic interlock prevents compressed-air supply to pneumatic equipment if ventilation stops
• Optional automatic fire suppression system

TWEKO APP SPodium preparation stations provide a professional area for preparing vehicle bodies and components with uniform vertical airflow, effective dust extraction and stable working conditions for personnel.
