1. ELECTROSTATIC SPRAYING- stop contact with air/water/chemicals/etc • Electrostatic paintig methods - increases the production rate - are well suited to automation - before/as the paint is sprayed, it is given a negative charge (extra electrons). - The workpiece is positively charged, thus attracting the paint particles - The paint is generally sprayed at the workpiece, the electrostatics even out the dispersion, and reduce wastage. 1.1 ELECTROSTATIC ATOMIZATION METHOD1.2 PRACTICE PROBLEMS |
