A station for locating and/or treating (10) surface defects on an object (11) (in particular a motor vehicle body) comprises a device (35) for "zeroing" the position of the object (11) in the station. This zeroing device (35) comprises in turn a projector (16) and at least one camera (17). The projector (16) projects a light grid (18) towards the zone of the station intended to receive the object (11) and a processing unit (19) for calculating the "zero position" calculates in the image taken by the camera (17) the position of predetermined points of the object (11) with respect to the grid. This calculation allows the deviation in position of the object with respect to the system of coordinates (20) of the station to be determined. In this way, when the object passes between various stations (10) it is possible to obtain always the real position of the defects detected, despite any differences in positioning of the object inside the stations.

The second step involves classification of the defects and during this step a second scanning head (13a) for taking images at a second resolution, higher than the first resolution, is moved to the positions of the defects detected in the first step and the defects are classified on the basis of the images taken by the second scanning head (13b).
A scanning head (13) for the detection of defects on surfaces (15) of an object (11) (in particular a motor vehicle body) is intended to be moved along scanning paths (14) on the surfaces of the object, for example using a positioner (16) in a detection station (10).

APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR RECOVERY AND DRY TREATMENT OF OVERS PRAY IN A PAINTING BOOTH
A liquid-paint painting booth (10) comprises a painting chamber (11) inside which the liquid paint is sprayed and which is provided with a grille-lined floor (15) for sucking from the chamber an air flow which is then conveyed to a filter unit (20, 26) for filtering the air and separating the overspray with the aid of neutralizing powders which are introduced into the air flow upstream of the filter unit. The air flow is sucked from the chamber through at least one conduit (17), the inlet of which is close to and underneath the grille-lined floor, whereby outlet mouths (23) for a laminar flow of powder transverse to the inlet and substantially parallel to the grille-lined floor of the chamber are provided in the vicinity of the sides of the conduit inlet, so that the laminar flow is passed through by the said air flow leaving the chamber via the conduit.
A painting booth (10) with powdered paint comprises a painting chamber (11) in which the powdered paint is sprayed and an underlying service chamber (30). The painting chamber (11) has a grated floor (15) for sucking in the air in it and that leads to paint filtering and suppression groups (17). The groups (17) comprise a first inlet area (22) with cyclone air flow to cause powder to fall out from the flow into an underlying collection hopper (23) followed by filters (24, 124) that are crossed in succession by the air flow.
