Applications include color-coding to differentiate between similar components, indicating pass/fail status and showing whether a specific process has been performed.
Uses a precision spray valve and Low Volume Low Pressure (LVLP) air to make uniform spots and stripes without mist or overspray. The system’s high transfer efficiency and quick cutoff improve part appearance and keep work areas clean. A short microburst of air after each shot keeps the nozzle from clogging and reduces maintenance.
The system includes a microprocessor-based controller that simplifies system setup and operation. The controller can be easily interfaced with a PLC if desired. Ink or paint is supplied from a fluid tank with a constant-bleed air regulator that prevents fluctuations in fluid pressure.
