Features and Challenges of Spray Valves
Features
A spray valve is a product designed to atomize liquid by simultaneously releasing air from the outside of the liquid outlet.
Because it can create a thin film over a wide area in a short time, it is used for painting vehicle bodies and parts, as well as for bonding/laminating interior and exterior parts.
Challenges
The finer the atomization, the more it scatters to the surroundings or floats in the air, which may require manual labor such as masking areas not to be coated or regularly cleaning the surrounding environment as a countermeasure.
Pros and Cons of Spray Valves
Advantages
Disadvantages
Capable of coating a wide area in a short time
Masking is required for areas where coating is not desired
Capable of thin-film coating
Because it disperses into the air, there is a lot of wasted liquid.
Our spray valve, the FSV-1, possesses the precision unique to a dispenser manufacturer. By selecting from 12 types of nozzles and 2 types of application modes to match the required application shape and range, it suppresses scattering, enabling application to fine details and masking-less spray application.
Various applications are possible through combinations of nozzles and application modes
FSV-1 Contributes to 3 Reductions through Precision Spray Coating
Reduce Masking Reduction of masking work
Cut Costs Reduction of material costs
Minimize Cleaning Reduction of cleaning time and frequency
