Case Study: Boosting Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint Production Line by 40% for a Southeast Asian Road Safety Leader
2026-01-04

Date: 2026/01/04
At Zhengzhou Yishang Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd., we believe our greatest measure of success is the tangible results achieved by our clients. This case study details our partnership with a leading road safety manufacturer in Southeast Asia (the client's name is withheld per mutual agreement), highlighting how a customized Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint Production Line.mp4 resolved critical operational challenges and delivered exceptional ROI.
Background: The Client's Challenge
Our client, a well-established supplier to national highway projects, faced mounting pressure to increase output while maintaining stringent quality standards. Their existing production setup, reliant on older, semi-automated equipment, had reached its limit. Key challenges included:
Capacity Bottleneck: Maximum output capped at 15 metric tons per day, unable to meet growing contract demands.
Inconsistent Quality: Manual weighing and mixing led to variable pigment dispersion and occasional batch failures, with a product rejection rate of approximately 3%.
High Operational Costs: Inefficient thermal processing and frequent downtime for maintenance drove up energy and labor expenses.
Labor-Intensive Process: The process heavily depended on skilled operators, creating scalability issues.
The Partnership: Crafting a Customized Solution

After a detailed consultation, our engineering team analyzed the client's specific raw material profile—primarily based on local C5 hydrocarbon resin—and their target capacity. We proposed a fully automated, turnkey Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint Production Line, customized with several key features:
Enhanced Pre-Mixing Module: A larger, high-torque pre-mixer was integrated to handle the client's specific filler density efficiently.
Precision Weighing System: Loss-in-weight feeders for each component (resin, filler, pigment, glass beads) to ensure recipe accuracy to within 0.5%.
Optimized Heating Configuration: The melting kettle's heating zones were calibrated for the melt characteristics of C5 resin, ensuring complete, homogeneous melting without degradation.
Scalable Design: The line was engineered for easy future capacity upgrades.
Seamless Execution: Installation & Knowledge Transfer
A dedicated Yishang project manager oversaw the entire process. Our technicians completed on-site installation within the scheduled three weeks. Crucially, we conducted comprehensive training for the client's operational and maintenance staff, covering everything from daily SOPs to troubleshooting. Remote support access was also established for real-time assistance.
Quantifiable Results & Tangible Impact

The new line has been in smooth operation for over six months, delivering transformative results:
Dramatic Output Increase: Daily production capacity surged from 15 tons to 21+ tons, representing a 40% boost in output. This enabled the client to confidently accept larger, more profitable contracts.
Unprecedented Quality Consistency: Automated control eliminated human error. The product rejection rate plummeted from ~3% to below 0.8%, drastically reducing waste and ensuring every batch met project specifications for reflectivity and durability.
Significant Efficiency Gains: The optimized thermal system and reduced cycle time lowered energy consumption per ton produced by an estimated 22%. Reduced downtime and fewer operators per shift further lowered operational costs.
Client Testimonial – In Their Words:
"The decision to partner with Zhengzhou Yishang was strategic. Their team didn't just sell us a machine; they delivered a production solution. The transition was smooth, the training was excellent, and the performance data speaks for itself. The line's stability and the consistent quality of our thermoplastic paint have strengthened our reputation as a reliable supplier. The after-sales support has been prompt and effective."
