Types of Spray Machines And The Latest In Technology

When it comes to spray machines, the various types are ideal for their respective application. Fan coaters are used most often for applications such as trim, siding, and molding. A fan coater is a compact machine that applies a mist of coating to a surface. Fan coaters are used for water-based and UV coatings on substrates up to 12 inches wide. Reciprocating spray machines are best for large-scale, continuous coating of flat surfaces. They use oscillating spray guns to apply the coating in overlapping waves. They provide an extremely high-quality consistent finish. The benefits of this precise method is that overspray is reduced and material waste is minimized. Reciprocating spray machines are often used to coat panel products like doors and cabinets. Rotary spray machines have rotating arms with spray guns that move in patterns to create a fine mist. The machine identifies the shape and size of the part as it passes under a scanner, and then adjusts the flow speed and rotation to provide a high-quality coating. Rotary spray machines can achieve feed speeds of more than 30 FPM and colors [...]
