Air spray, Theory of Operation

  • Air spray atomization is

created by air flow disrupting a fluid stream.

  • Air spray gives the finest

finish quality referred to as an Automotive finish or Class A Finish.

Air Pressure 20-60 psi 1.5-3.5 bar

Transfer efficiency = 20 - 30%

slide-39
SLIDE 39

39

HVLP Theory

  • Similar to airspray
  • High volume, low

pressure

  • Atomizing air limited

to 10 psi

  • Air consumption 20

scfm

  • HVLP reduces or

eliminates bounce back

  • Environmental

compliant

slide-40
SLIDE 40

40

Fluid Pressure 5-10 psi .33-.66 bar 1-6 in 25-150 mm

HVLP Setting Fluid Stream

  • Apply fluid pressure to

create an 1-6 inch fluid stream

  • Different materials -

different fluid pressures

  • Measured in ounces per

minute (cc/minute)

slide-41
SLIDE 41

41

2000+ psi fluid pressure Transfer efficiency = 50 - 60%

Airless, Theory of Operation

  • Airless spray atomization -

hydraulic force through a cats eye shaped orifice

  • 2000+ psi fluid pressure
  • Fastest and heaviest spray

finish and is measured in liters per minutes

  • Transfer efficiency =

50-60%

  • Protective coatings

Click to see spray

slide-42
SLIDE 42

42

Airless, Theory of Operation

  • Airless spray atomization is created

by hydraulic force pushing material through an orifice.

  • As the fluid exits the orifice, friction

between the fluid stream and atmosphere disrupts the stream into small particles.

  • Airless spray gives the fastest and

heaviest spray finish and is measured in gallons per minutes.

  • Used when a protective coating is the

priority.

  • Higher pressure is needed for a

complete pattern .

2000 psi 133 Bar 13.3 MPa Fluid pressure Transfer efficiency = 40-50%

Airless Application

Advantages

  • High Productivity
  • Bonding between the

Coating and surface to be coated

  • Penetration of coating

into the blasted profile.

  • Very Low chances for

coating failure

  • High Transfer Efficiency

Disadvantages

  • Applicable where

surface finish quality is not the criteria.

  • Not suitable for small

job works where less than 5ltr of paint is consumed in one batch

  • Expensive Equipment
  • Required skilled
  • perator technique

Choosing the Right TIP

  • Choosing the right tip is important for maximum productivity – Tip

determines the fluid flow and size of the spray pattern

  • Right tip results in maximum control and minimum over spray
  • It is easy to determine which tip size to use when you know the

material you will be spraying.

  • Recommended Best Fan size for the Job
  • Recommended Tip Recommended Tip Sizes for Common

Coating

Material Tip Size ( in.) Stain or Lacquer .011 to .013 Oil Base Paint .013 to .015 Latex Paints .015 to .019 Heavy Latex & Smooth Electrometric .021 to .025 Electrometric and Block Fillers .025 to .035+

Watch for runs or sags in the pattern as a sign of a worn tip. DO not increase pressure of the pump to combat this problem

  • You will only waste paint and increase the wear on the pump. –

Simply replace the tip.

Air-Assist, Theory

  • Air-Assist spray atomization

similar to airless, but less pressure

  • Better finish than airless
  • High flow rate
  • 800+ psi fluid pressure
  • ~20 psi air pressure
  • Transfer efficiency = 60-65%
slide-49
SLIDE 49

Air Assisted Airless Spray

Advantages

  • Reduced flow rates compared

to airless

  • Increase operator control due

to lower fluid flow rates and pressure

  • Increase finish quality due to

reduced particle velocity

  • the softer the particles,

the better the finish quality.

  • Higher transfer efficiency.
  • Reduced parts wear.

Disadvantage

  • Takes two hoses, air and fluid
  • Higher Cost.

Equipment

  • Farm Equipment
slide-51

Transfer Efficiency

  • Transfer efficiency (TE) = (paint deposited on a part)/(total

paint sprayed)

  • TE = (Wp/Ws) x 100%

Wp = Weight of wet coating on the part Ws = Weight of liquid coating sprayed

Electrostatics & Transfer Efficiency

  • Factors that effect electrostatic transfer

efficiency

– Distance from gun to grounded part

  • Gun distance should be 10 to 12 inches (250 - 300

mm) from the target

– Material conductivity

  • Highly conductive (low resistivity) materials

– Shape of the target

  • Corners or enclosed area cause a Faraday Cage
