The VMS 1000 and VMS 1500 are ergonomically-friendly alternatives to horizontal batch coating machines. The Mustang VMS systems offer one of the shortest evaporation cycles on the market, approximately 14 minutes, giving users a high-quality coating with Mustang's superior patented in-chamber topcoat that passes all forward lighting specifications.

Mustang manufactures the most reliable systems on the market. The VMS system is designed with ease of maintenance in mind. With over 90% uptime, customers can stay focused on meeting their production demands.

Ideal conditions, that yield the fastest cycle times, use parts directly from the plastic injection molding press or base coating line. Cycle time can be affected by substrate age, geometry and the time between maintenance intervals. Typical cycle times:

• VMS 1000: 12:00 -15:00 minutes.
• VMS 1500: 15:00 – 18:00 minutes.
