  • Patent number: 5147681
    Abstract: The method of the present invention begins with the unloading of the garments delivered by the customer. After unloading, the garments are sorted and counted and then placed on moveable racks for transportation to a separate storage area nearby. Selected garments are then moved from the storage area to a temporary receiving area near zones known as painting cells, where the garments are taken and hung from hooks attached to a variable speed electronically operated overhead track conveyor. The conveyor moves the garments along an oval shaped track pattern at a constant speed as paint is applied by workers stationed at various locations along the conveyor route. Various paint application methods are utilized during this stage of the operation, including the use of spray bottles and airbrushes.
