Powder coating
Decoration and protection are often very closely associated. Powder Coatings perfectly perform both these functions. SAMES equipment makes use of the same electric eld properties as those that have been used for many years in automatic and manual liquid paint spray systems. A cloud of charged powder particles is attracted to the item to be painted, surrounds it and deposits itself on both the front and back surfaces. Those powder particles that have not attached themselves to the part are recovered and recycled. Powder loss is therefore virtually nil. This application requires no solvents. Losses through evaporation are eliminated as the powder is 100% solid. The electrostatic technology is used to nish a very wide range of heated or cold surfaces with a uniform, very adherent layer of powder, an essential property that has applications in all braches of industry.

Powder coatings
The various powders that are suitable for coatings have widely diering characteristics. For each particular application we must choose the product that gives the best result according to the desired nal objective:

:: Protective coating: resistance to atmospheric or chemical corrosion (sea air, solvents, acid or alkaline
solutions).

:: Electrical or thermal insulation: plastics are generally good insulators and have very good resistance to low
temperatures.

:: Decorative coatings: powder coatings can be used to obtain smooth, glossy surfaces in a wide range of
dierent colours.

:: Food quality coatings: certain plastics meet with the current regulations and can be used in the food or
pharmaceutical industries (plastic linings inside boxes, metal packaging, etc.).

Selection guide - Powder paint

Powder coating
The typical composition of a powder is as follows:

:: 50 to 60 % of binder, resin and hardener :: 40 to 50% of pigment and charges :: 1 to 2% of additives

The binders and all the additives are in solid form. The constituents of the formulations are weighed and measured. This mixture is then extruded to thoroughly mix the raw materials into a homogeneous mass. The material is then crushed and ground once more to obtain a powder that is ready for use.

Types of powders The following three types of powder (known as "thermosetting" powders) are the most widely used:

:: Mixed or Hybrid (epoxy / polyester) :: Polyesters :: Epoxy

Next come the so-called "thermoplastic" powders that are less widely used and include the following:

:: Acrylics :: Nylon :: Vinyls :: Fluorocarbons, etc.

Finally, frit (porcelain) powders are made from inorganic components. Prosperities of powders

:: Epoxy
These are the most wellknown and exist in a vast range of formulations. Used for their decorative (furniture, shelving and various instruments) and functional properties ("rebar" pipes, electrical equipment, automotive primers and undercoats). They have very good corrosion resistance and can be specially formulated to provide high thermal or chemical stress resistance. They do not, however, have very high resistance to UV radiation, exposure to which may cause aking. They are suitable for painting metal supports and are mainly used on indoor equipment, but can also be used to provide electrical insulation. They can even be applied as an enamel coat. An undercoat is not necessarily required. These powders are relatively expensive, but they are very widely used. They can be baked from 3 minutes at 232C up to 25 minutes at 121C.

Selection guide - Powder paint

Powder coating
:: Mixed or Hybrid
These combine the properties of Epoxy and Polyester powders. They are resistant and compensate for the "weakness" of Epoxy powders to UV rays, but are less hard and more sensitive to solvents and metals. They are also suitable for metal supports, and do not necessarily require an undercoat when applied using electrostatic techniques. Used for oce equipment, store shelves, etc.

:: Polyester
These can be used on their own or in combination with other resins to cover a very wide range of applications. They are very exible, resistant and used for decorative applications. They have good weather and UV resistance. They are equally suitable for indoor and outdoor use. They are quick-drying and relatively inexpensive. They are used for construction, industrial equipment, external decoration, bicycles, etc. They are baked for between 10 and 30 minutes at 149C to 204C.

:: Acrylics
With their good durability and excellent chemical resistance to detergents, staining and corrosion, these powders oer the best adhesion and covering capacity in external applications. They have excellent pigment retention and are hard enough to resist scratching while at the same time having a soft, glossy appearance. Depending on their formulation, the properties of these powders can be of an equivalent level to those of liquid acrylic paints. Acrylics are incompatible with other powder paints. So that,, its use is exclusive. They are always used for automotive and domestic applications and are reasonably inexpensive. They can be baked for a period of 10 minutes at 204C up to 30 minutes at 135C.

:: Nylon
These powders are used for coating truck parts, food hooks, smoke and steam chamber racks and baskets, printing rollers, hospital equipment, shopping trolleys and shop furniture, door handles, lighting columns and equipment, aircraft and ships rudders. These powders are very reliable on metallic and non-metallic surfaces, when applied to an undercoat, and are very long-lasting.

:: Fluorocarbon
These are the most stable and resistant powders. Depending on formulation, they can display excellent properties. They can thus be used where resistance is required to chemicals, solvents or the suns rays. Their qualities are close to those of the best liquid coatings. They can be baked from 8 minutes at 163C up to 20 minutes at 204C.

Selection guide - Powder paint

Powder coating
:: Polyvinyl chloride
PVC powders are used for: dishwasher baskets, refrigerator shelves, playground equipment, air-conditioning unit grilles, bus bars, garden equipment, letter boxes, etc. Vinyl powder coatings are mostly applied as thick coatings. They are glossy, "unctuous" and exible, as well has having good impact, electrical and weather resistance. PVC coating are generally formulated in conjunction with plastics technologists in order to obtain the required properties of exibility, hardness, etc. These paints do however contain Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) that are forbidden by the new environmental regulations. Even if they are below 1%, they require special treatment.

:: Polyurethane
These are the most stable and resistant powders and are widely used in the transport industry (trains, lorries, etc). Depending on formulation, they can display excellent properties. They can thus be used where it is required to resist chemicals, solvents or the suns rays. Their qualities are close to those of the best performing liquid coatings. They are more expensive than polyester powders.

:: Inorganic powder
The powder is obtained by grinding and melting oxidised elements with base metals. They have exellent chemical and mechanical characteristics. They are used for coating kitchen equipment, bath-tubs, shower trays, architectural elements (signposts, street signs, etc.), glass, cumulus, etc..., and in an increasing range of new applications. The suggested baking temperature is between 780C and 830C. It provides an enamel coating that is able to withstand temperatures of up to 450C, as well as ensuring colour-fastness and preventing scratching. Coating thickness The higher the resistivity of the powder, the better it will adhere to the coated surface. The attraction will keep on for many hours.

:: Without pre-heating the part to be painted:

At the start of spraying, the object is covered with a uniform coat of powder that adheres to its surface. There then occurs a phenomenon of repulsion between the powder cloud and the coated object. There is thus an upper limit to the amount of powder deposited. After fusion we obtain a coating, the uniform thickness of which vary from 30 to 80 microns for decorative applications up to 200 to 500 microns for functional applications, varying according to the type of powder used.

:: With pre-heating:
> The part is pre-heated in an oven and the powder is sprayed onto it while hot. The pre-heating temperature will vary according to the shape of the workpiece and type of powder to be applied: If the pre-heating temperature exceeds the melting point of the powder, the particles will melt in contact with the workpiece. This allows a thicker lm to be obtained (5 to 10 mm and over) than when the part is cold. > The workpiece can also be heated slightly to a temperature below the melting of the powder to assist the ow of electric charge. This is because the insulating particles are heated up by contact with the part onto which they are sprayed, and thus become more conductive, allowing more powder to be deposited than would be possible on a cold surface.

Selection guide - Powder paint

Powder coating
Paint curing There are a number of dierent methods that can be used to melt or polymerise the powder coat:

:: Oven (box or in-line) :: Infrared heaters, :: High-frequency heating.

The melting and polymerisation time and temperature depend essentially on the nature of the material and the part must be heated to slightly above this temperature (by 10 to 20C) to obtain a full fusion and a smooth lm.

DEFECTS Various defects can occur

:: Blistering: can be caused by:

> an excessive powder thickness, preventing the air trapped inside the lm from escaping, > moisture in the powder or in the compressed air carrying it, > gas release from the part,like porous cast iron, wood and ceramics.

:: "Orange peel" surface: the melting temperature is

too low or the lm thickness is insucient. It is also very dicult to obtain a perfectly smooth surface with certain low-grade quality powders.

:: Craters (small depressions on the surface of the

coating): can result, among other causes, from a failure to adhere due to poor cleaning of the workpiece, or an impurity in the powder.

Electrostatic application
High voltage is produced by a controller emitting a low voltage, medium frequency signal (approx. 20KHz). This module supplies a high voltage stage that produces a continuous high voltage. The high-voltage stage, also called "High Voltage Unit" or "cascade" is sometimes incorporated within the spray gun. This is the case of:

:: the Mach-Jet Gun, E-series, E-Jet and Email Jet-M manual spray guns :: the Auto Mach-Jet and Email Jet-A automatic spray guns
It can also be remote, i.e. connected to the gun by a high voltage cable. This is the case of the SRV 038 automatic rotary applicator, aka powder bell. There are several types of power supplies:

GNM 100

GNM 200

CRN 457

GCU 400

Used with the manual and automatic ranges, the GNM 100 comes in an IP64 sealed enclosure version: :: Enamel Jet-M :: Enamel Jet-A :: JR 106 (Tribo) :: Old generation SRV416 (Automatic corona)

In its electrical cabinet version, its sealing rating is IP 20: :: SRV 038 (rotating bell)

Used with the new powder coating equipment range, the module incorporates the high voltage and pneumatic functions. Its sealing rating is IP54: :: Mach-jet Gun :: Auto Mach-Jet :: E-Jet

Used with the "E-Series" manual powder coating range

:: The power supplies automatically identies the type of gun to which it is connected and then sets the
cascades maximum operating values (U & I).The best electrostatic charge is maintained during application regardless of the shape of the part, the characteristics of the powder or the target distance. This is made possible by the rectangular Voltage/Current characteristic of the power supply (see below for modules GNM 100 and GNM 200). These parameters are operator-adjustable.

The power supplies also include a certain number of features such as overcurrent disjunction, fast current peak, etc., to enhance the safety of the system.

Electrostatic application
CORONA or TRIBO charge
There are two ways to impart an electric charge to the powder particles. A bit of physics: throughout the universe, there is a basic element to which physicists have given the name "electron". Besides being extremely small, this grain of matter has the interesting property of carrying a negative charge. It is when electrons travel inside a copper wire that an electric current is produced. As you have no doubt noticed, you dont receive an electric shock every time you touch an object, this is due to the fact that there exists another grain of matter called a proton that also carries an electrical charge of exactly the same value as the electron, but of opposite sign: positive. These positive and negative charges attract one another, while those of the same sign repell each other. Matter therefore tends to collect in clusters that always contain more or less the same number of protons and electrons (plus a few other electrically neutral particles). Because the positive and negative charges balance out, we do not therefore feel any electric discharge when we touch an object. By convention the Earth is considered as being at 0 Volts. A positively charged particle (paint droplet or powder grain) will therefore tend to go towards the nearest negative particle or, if there is no particle of the opposite sign, towards the nearest point at 0 Volts. Thus, to charge a grain of powder we must either add extra electrons, which will give it an overall negative charge, or else take some electrons away, leaving an excess of protons and thus giving the particle a positive charge. Adding protons would have exactly the same eect but is much more dicult to achieve, and certain steps of the process would have much in common with an atom bomb. :: Where the particle has a surplus of electrons, we use the CORONA method. :: Where the particle has an electron decit, we use the TRIBO method.

11

The CORONA charge (or ionic bombardment) Powdered paints are electrically very insulating (resistivity > 107 M.cm): and ionic bombardment is the only way in which a charge can be imparted on the particles. When spraying, the powder particles are electrically charged by a high voltage unit (HV cascade) supplying up to 85 kV. This generator creates an electric eld between the electrode of the gun and the grounded part, causing the negatively charged particles to move along the electrostatic lines of force. The powder is uniformly deposited on all sides of the part, ensuring a high transfer eciency.

Coating with a rotating bell

12

Electrostatic application
We note that the electric eld at the tip of the nozzle or the edge of the bell is very intense (small bend radius) The surrounding air is strongly ionised. The ions created are moved towards the grounded part at high speed (~100 m/s). These ions generate their own electric eld.

The air ions come across the trajectory of the powder particles and catch them up (the speed of the powder particles being much lower than that of the ions, only a few m/s). The powder particles are therefore subjected to ionic bombardment. When an ion meets a particle, it attaches to the particle surface and cannot detach itself. If the particle is very nonconductive, it will rotate on itself to present the side that has not yet been charged by the ion ow: the electric charge will continue increasing as the powder travels towards the part.

A large number of ions will therefore have attached themselves to the powder particle before it reaches the part. It will then achieve its maximum charge and the particle will repel all the other ions on its path. Charging by ion bombardment works on both insulating and conductive particles.

N.B : the charge by bombardment adds to the charge by contact for a high speed bell, in which these two charging phenomena are complementary.

The TRIBO-ELECTRIC charge: To cause an electron decit, the particles are (energetically) rubbed against a material that captures the electrons torn o by friction, and from there, are conducted directly to the ground. The principle is simple but where we have parts rubbing against one another, we also have wear. What is more, tearing o electrons requires a great deal of energy. It therefore takes repeated frictions to achieve the desired result, which explains why TRIBO spray guns are generally longer and their ow rate limited.

Selection guide - Powder paint

Electrostatic application
The powder is electrically charged by friction inside the gun tubes and those of the nozzle; that allows it to acquire a uniform electrostatic charge, as well as high transfer eciency and better penetration than a traditional Tribo equipment: Tribo charge overcomes the main disadvantage associated with the Corona charge, which is the Faraday cage eect. The electrostatic eld produced by the tribo-electric gun is almost non-existent, allowing the powder to penetrate cavities and folds, a great uniformity of lm build and a perfect distribution of the powder on the part. The powder must be capable of loosing electrons to Teon (diagram 1) An insulating material can capture or release a very large number of electrons. The charge therefore increases with the number of contacts. A suitable powder must be used for the charge to be eective (generally Epoxy).

Electrostatic application
Friction charging involves no electrostatic eld or ion emission, and requires no high voltage generator or electrode. Powder coating requires air to direct the powder towards the part (additional air) and to vary the speed of the particles in the gun, and thus their level of charge (diagram 2). The particle is then attracted by the grounded part via the eld created by the powder cloud ("wraparound" phenomenon).

Advantages of electrostatic application :: Electrostatic application helps to save powder, reduces overspray (and thus pollution) and ensures that
hidden surfaces are properly coated (wraparound eect). Imparting an electric charge gives:

:: A better pattern than with conventional methods :: A very high transfer eciency:
> saves paint > reduces soiling of the booth (reduced maintenance)

:: An excellent appearance:
> excellent uniformity and consistency of lm > quality of coverage

:: The wraparound eect is enhanced:

> reduction in painting times > reduction in the number of applicators or operators required Together these advantages allow a reduction in operating costs and an increase in paint line productivity.

ENAMEL JET M

Manual electrostatic spray gun for enamel powders

The ENAMEL JET M is a manual frit powder gun for general industrial applications. The gun design is derived from that of the Stajet 406 and is available in a number of equipment (packages) congurations.

Enamel Jet M (Manual)

Description of gun
The ENAMEL JET M gun is designed for spraying frit powder. Powder is supplied by either a circular hopper or a vibrating table supply system. Alterations made to the equipment allow the same operating principles as with a standard STAJET 406 system (conventional powder system):

:: Management of controls (air supplies, trigger, low voltage, etc.) by the CRN 456 module. :: Corona-type electrostatic charge :: Powder supplied via a powder pump (Venturi)
Components in contact with the powder are designed with a simple shape and oer very good resistance to wear. The JRN 406E gun is used in two dierent equipment congurations: ENAMEL JET M Vibrating table ENAMEL JET M Fluidised hopper

The cart is able to accommodate all types of powder boxes.

The hopper has a capacity of 50 liters (16gal).

Technical adaptations
1 - The two nozzles supplied (RS-20mm and FS) are identical to those of the conventional powder version. However, the types of material used for their supports and for the upper body of the electrode have been changed. 2 - The powder tube consists of a single element. It is moulded with the barrel and non replaceable. It ensures, among other things, that the grains of certain enamel powders do not loose their coatings, which might then agglomerate and cause blemishes. 3 - The powder hose connects at the rear of the handle to a beefed up coupling for a 12 mm internal dia hose. The powder is carried in a straight line, thus reducing wear. 4 - The powder supply hose has been adapted to provide good resistance to wear and has a diameter of 12 x 17mm (vs 11x15mm for conventional powders). 5 - The construction of the Venturi powder pump remains unchanged. Only those components in contact with the powder have been strengthened: the air injector, the powder ejector (venturi tube) and the powder endpiece. The porous ring remains unchanged. The name of the pump changes to "CS 126 E".

Optimum High Voltage conguration
The GNM 100 high voltage generator has a rectangular Voltage/Current characteristic that allows it to provide the highest electrostatic charge, whatever the shape of the part, the type of powder, or the target distance. These parameters are operator controllable, who sets up his maximum electrostatic eciency.

A: - Re-coating - thick coatings (>100 m) - low conductivity materials B: Easier coating of cavities

C: - Increased particle charge (round spray) - better wraparound. - Increased transfer eciency (round spray) We recommend a max. current of 30 A when using a fan spray nozzle. D: Facilitates the application of metallic powders

The air pressure settings are adjusted according to the diameter of the powder hose. It is recommended not to exceed an injection air pressure of 2.5 bar (38psi) to avoid premature wear of the venturi tube and of nonceramic parts (powder end-piece, hose etc.)

The injection air sets desired powder ow, while the dilution air assists with the transport of the powder. When the injection air is increased, the dilution air diminishes. Too much dilution air can be detrimental for application, with the risk of pulsing. In certain situations (e.g.: very long hose) it will, nevertheless, be necessary to increase the dilution.

Tribo electrostatic spray gun

Description of TRIBOJET 106 package components The JR 106 is a gun especially designed to apply socalled "Special Tribo" powders. Various powder supply systems can be used (hopper, vibrating table or pressure tank). Powder is fed to the gun via a powder pump outtted with a venturi tube (5),and a suction tube. The powder is uidised in the hopper or box (7) before being sent to the gun (6) by the venturi tube, by adjusting air pressures (3&4). The GNM 100 power supply and pneumatic controls are built in the CRN 456 module. The GNM 100 automatically identies the gun that is connected. The powder is charged by friction inside the internal tubes of the gun and nozzle, resulting in a uniform electrostatic charge of the powder particles, and allowing high productivity and penetration into recesses. Tribo charge overcomes the main disadvantage associated with Corona charge, which is the Faraday Cage. Coating requires an additional air (2) which directs the powder towards the parts, and also varies the speed of the particles inside the gun, and thus their level of charge. The particle is then attracted by the grounded part through the eld created by the powder cloud ("wraparound" phenomenon).

ENAMEL JET A

Automatic electrostatic spray gun for enamel powders

The ENAMEL JET A is an automatic frit (porcelain) powder gun for general industrial applications. It is the automatic equivalent of the manual frit powder gun (see chapter on ENAMEL JET M).

Description of applicator
The ENAMEL JET A gun is designed for spraying frit powders.

A match for complex parts

The guns built-in cascade guarantees a high electrostatic eciency. The current drawn varies in function of the voltage value. The current can also be limited, without loss of electrostatic performance, in any conditions of application (distance, type of parts, powder ow). With its ENAMEL JET A equipment and complete standardised packages, SAMES oers a complete, dedicated frit powder coating solution.

:: Modications are made to the equipment but

it still retains the same operating principles as the standard SRV 416 (conventional powder): > Management of controls (air supplies, trigger, low voltage, etc.) by the CRN 456 controller > Corona charge > Powder conveyed by a venturi powder pump

:: Components in contact with the powder and

serving to transport it are designed to have a simple shape and oer very good resistance to wear.

Technical adaptations
1 - The types of material used for the electrode support and upper body have been changed. 2 - The powder tube is made in one piece, and is moulded with the barrel and cannot be changed. It ensures, among other things, that the grains of certain porcelain powders do not loose their coatings, which might result in agglomerates and cause blemishes. 3 - The powder hose is connected to the rear of the handle on a reinforced coupling for a hose of 12mm ID. The powder ows straight through, thus reducing wear. 4 - The powder hose has been adapted to guarantee good resistance to wear and a long service life. It has a diameter of 12 x 17mm (against 11x15mm for conventional powders). 5 - The construction of the "Venturi" powder pump remains unchanged. Only those components in contact with the powder have been strengthened: the air injector, the venturi tube and the powder end piece. The porous ring remains identical. The pump description changes to "CS 126 E".

ENAMEL JET A

Automatic electrostatic spray gun for enamel powders

Customised frit powder packages
The ENAMEL JET A is intended to be installed on a RFV 2000 reciprocator. The system is controlled by the REV 600 module (see "Peripheral equipment"). A reciprocator RFV 2000 can take 8 x ENAMEL JET A guns in its standard conguration. This can be increased to a maximum of 12 spray guns, if required, with a simple modication. SAMES meets the productivity requests of even the most demanding producers.

A typical system is shown below:

A system of this type is very simple to implement and can be installed in only a few hours. The customer shall pay particular attention to the booth, which must be able to withstand the particularly abrasive porcelain powders.

TRV 117

Tribo automatic spray gun

TRV 117 tribo gun electrically charges the powder by friction. It is particularly suitable for the automatic coating of complex surfaces and re-coating in general industrial systems. It is generally installed on a reciprocator (RFV 2000 or similar) or installed stationary.

Areas of application
TRV 117 gun is used in automatic powder coating systems in many sectors:

:: Radiators :: Extinguishers :: Valve bodies :: Gates/Fencing :: Surfacing and clear coating of wheel rims :: Compressors :: Bicycles / motorcycles

Benets :: Swivel connection for easy application:

TRV 117 gun can be provided with a swivel tting allowing a 90 inclination of the rake nozzle, which can then be used for any application.

:: Easy to maintain:
The design of the TRV 117 has been optimised to reduce maintenance time. It features tool-free removal of the rear body from the outside of the booth.

:: Good powder charging capacity:

The longer body gives a higher electrostatic charge than that of conventional Tribo guns. The gun speeds up the powder application process and improves the quality of the coating on the parts. The electrostatic eld produced by the tribo-electric gun is almost non-existent, allowing the powder to penetrate in cavities and folds, a great uniformity of lm build and a perfect distribution of powder on the part as well as a very good quality of re-coating, eliminating the need for manual touch-up.
Selection guide - Powder paint

:: Good wear resistance:

Friction parts, such as the "Vortex diuser" are very durable.

Automatic spray guns

Tribo automatic spray gun

Description of the equipment
TRV 117 is a powder coating gun for applying socalled "Special Tribo" powders. Appreciated by the most demanding manufacturers. The powder is charged by friction through the internal tubes of the gun and nozzle, producing a uniform electrostatic charge on the powder particles, and allowing high productivity and better penetration than that achieved with traditional Tribo equipment. Tribo technology overcomes the main disadvantage associated with the Corona charge guns, which is the Faraday Cage Eect. Powder application requires air to direct the powder towards the parts (additional air supplied to the gun), which also changes the speed of the particles in the gun, and thus their level of charge. The particle is then attracted by the grounded part through the eld created by the powder cloud ("wraparound" phenomenon). TRV 117 tribo gun is used with the TRJ 102 module: This module can control one or two TRV 116 or TRV 117 tribo-electric gun(s). In a rack, it is 19 inches long, 2U (90 cm) high and 240 mm deep. The power is fed to the gun by a CS 127 Venturi pump (5). The pneumatic controls are located on the front face:

New rake nozzle
The new rake nozzle is unique. Supplied with the spray gun, it can be used in-line with the gun body or can rotate about its axis. Its design ensures a good pull-o resistance as the end of each tube is screwed in place and the nozzle is securely held by a tightening nut.

The spray gun can also come with a swivel tting that can angle the pattern of the rake nozzle. The swivel tting on its own performs the same functions as the entire previous TRV 116 range of nozzles as far as inclination is concerned.

The new straight nozzle and swivel tting can easily be installed on the old TRV116 gun with an adaptor ring.

TRV 117 tting on an existing non SAMES system
A conversion kit permits to install the TRV 117 to t an existing "non SAMES" system. Some of our competitors powder pumps do not use dilution air ;that may adversely aect the quality of application and the tribo-electric charge.

:: High ow rates and less applicators: in many cases, one powder bell can replace two guns as it can eciently
apply powder at ows in excess of 500 g/min (30 kg/h).

:: Reduced powder losses:

The electrostatic forces imparted to the particles are more ecient due to the low axial velocity of the powder. The powder particle spends more time in the ionised area created at the front of the bell and in doing, so receives a better charge. The transfer eciency is therefore very high, in the order of 85% on vertical at surfaces and up to 95% on horizontal at surfaces.

:: Easy to maintain:
The components can be separated in a few seconds without any special tools and are easily cleaned with an air gun. The bellcup is very resistant to wear and can easily last for more than one year under normal conditions of use.

General description :: SRV 038 powder bell is tted with a mechanical
bearing turbine. It is mostly installed on a reciprocator but its wide pattern also makes it suitable for stationary use.

:: Powder is fed via a CS 127 venturi pump (H). :: The powder is charged in the bellcup by contact,
via a remote high voltage cascade (C). High voltage is connected to the bell (J) via a special cable (D) from the UHT 188 to the HV well of the SRV038.

:: The bell is controlled from the TN 5077. Module (E)

which serves to display and adjust the speed of the turbine. The rotation speed is constantly indicated on the digital display on the front of the module. This module is tted with a ground cable, a connection for local (manual) mode, a set of liaisons to pilot the bell functions (F) land a sensor for measuring the rotation speed.

Advantages of the rotating bell
The powder is delivered via a central tube and put into rotation by the bellcup. It is electrically charged when it leaves the bell and makes its way towards the object to be coated in a very wide, enveloping spray. The powder is both electrically charged and sprayed by this very at-shaped bell rotating at high speed. The bell itself acts as an electrode, bombarding the powder particles with ions and thus giving them a high charge.

The combination rotating bell and high voltage guarantees:

:: A high level of productivity (powder ow in excess

of 500 g/min).

:: Uniform coating (applicator is generally installed

on a reciprocator).

The bell includes a passage for the microphone air supply: With each bellcup rotation, an air pressure variation is directed to the microphone which translates it into electrical variations for the regulation board. Because the bell can precisely control the coating thickness, the orange peel (a blemish due to excessive thickness) no longer exists. Pitting, which is one of the more common defects in powder coating, is eliminated by means of a counterelectrode incorporated within the applicator that avoids excessive generation of ions. The nal appearance of the part is thus improved.

:: A steady pattern. :: Superior coverage of parts (the wraparound

ensures that powder is applied on the back of the part).

:: Powder savings (the transfer eciency can exceed

80%).

The advantages of the high voltage generator

The power supply provides exibility of use for the following cases: A = re-coating B = coating complex shapes C = applications requiring very high transfer eciency, regardless of the powder ow rate.

AS 100
Use

Powder uidity meter

AS 100 uidimeter has been designed for the specic purpose of determining the capabilities of powder to be uidised. In the powder coating process the powder is transported and projected on the part by suspending it in air. However, powders react very dierently to this suspension depending on their grain size, degree of humidity, formula, etc. The AS100 uidimeter demonstrates this behaviour and indicates immediately whether a powder is suitable for spraying purposes. It is a valuable aid in product quality control for both powder paint manufacturers and other laboratories. This is the rst electrostatic powder coating apparatus to be covered by a registered French standard (T 30 A doc 396).

Warning: the operator must collect a sample of paint so as to control it obligatory outside from the ATEX zone.

Description
The apparatus comprises: :: A 100 mm diameter porous-bottomed powder uidising cylinder with a calibrated opening on the side, through which the powder ows.

Operation
The powder is uidised in the porous-bottomed cylinder by means of a controlled ow of air. Measurements are taken in turn of: the height of uidised powder (H1), the height at rest (H0) and the weight (P) of uidised powder that ows in 30 seconds out of the calibrated opening. It is thus possible to dened a projectability factor (R) that is characteristic to the powder: R = P x ( H1 / H0 ) As an indication, experience has shown that, for epoxy powders with a density of between 1.3 and 1.6, the projectability characteristics for dierent values of R are as follows:
R > 140 120 to 140 80 to 120 < 80 Projectability Very good Good Mediocre Bad

CSV 600

Powder distribution tank

Use
CSV 600 powder hopper is designed to supply powder to the SAMES range of automatic powder guns, and in particular the Auto Mach-Jet, TRV 117 and SRV 038 in all automatic electrostatic powder coating systems. The CSV 600 can operate either with new powder only or with a mixture of new and recycled powders, in which case it is designed to receive a complete sieving system.

Description and operation

CSV 600 powder hopper consists mainly of a wheelmounted mobile uidised bed. A porous plate at the bottom of the hopper ensures an excellent distribution of air over its entire surface, to ensure a perfectly homogeneous powder bed. Its lid can receive CS 127 powder pumps, which draw the uidised powder and deliver it to the automatic guns (Auto Mach-Jet, TRV 117, etc.) Each pump is tted with two air intakes corresponding to:

::

an injection circuit that doses and carries the powder,

:: a dilution circuit that ensures a uniform spray of

powder over the complete allowable ow range. A suction venturi tted on the lid, draws o uidised powder from inside the hopper. This creates a slight negative pressure, which prevents powder leakage. The pneumatic settings are adjusted from the installations main control cabinet.

CSV 600

87

:: High and low powder level detectors

E.g.: for the supply of new powder, the detection system can be composed of either a single high level detector or else include a delayl timer (alarm) activated by a low level powder detector.

:: Powder recycling equipment with vibrating sieve and recycling hopper

The recycling hopper (A) is supplied with compressed air (H: pneumatic control) via a porous bottom. The air rising from the porous bottom uidises the powder contained in the tank. The lid of the tank receives a pump (B) that delivers the powder through the mini cyclone (C) to the sieve. The sieve (D), which is xed to the mobile stand via rubber mounts, is shaken by the vibrator (see wiring diagrams on next page). The powder recycled by the mini cyclone (C) enters the sieving machine (D) via a exible sleeve. The powder exits the sieve after having passed through one screen (400 m standard) and is then recovered in the CSV 600 hopper (F) that supplies the guns via the CS 127 pump (G).

Choice of RFV external dimensions

It is preferable to choose a standard robot, even if the sweeping stroke is well above the height of the items for painting as this can be adapted as the process develops. Conversely, the choice will be based on environmental constraints (example: booth height under 3.1 m) or because of heights in excess of 2 m of items for painting.

MANUCOMPACT

Modular manual electrostatic powder booth

Description and operation
MANUCOMPACT booth comprises a powder coating enclosure (1), a ventilation-ltration system (2), a lter cleaning system (3) and cartridge lters (4) for recovering the over-spray that is not deposited on the workpieces. These elements create the environment that is essential for utilising power coating equipment. The parts or sets of parts are hung from a bar in front of the booth (5) then coated with powder in the centre section. A horizontal ow of air prevents pollution by the powder of the air outside the coating enclosure. Over-sprayed powder is recovered by four cartridge lters. These lters are cleaned at regular intervals by blowing pressurised air in the opposite direction to the direction of ow of the ventilation system. The powder is recovered in a large capacity plastic, that pulls out from the side of the machine. The booths control box (6) thus enables cartridge activation and cleaning. This box can be located on either the right or the left-hand side of the booth. Electrical and pneumatic lines are quickly connected.

PVV EasyCompact

Powder-coating booth with fast colour change system

Productivit,Productivity, Economy, Compact Size and Ergonomics are the key words that sum up requirements in the surface treatment business today. To meet these criteria and satisfy the most demanding customers, Sames has developed EasyCompact, its new automatic powder-coating system, built around a new booth for even faster colour change! More Compact: > EasyCompact, the most compact booth on the market, with dimensions reduced to the absolute minimum: The ventilation system is connected via an duct with lateral, overhead outlet to save oor space. Manual operating positions for pre-touch or touch-up are integrated to the booth, there is no exterior platform. More Ecient: > Uniform ventilation ow throughout the booth: The bottom of the automatic zone is specially shaped to guarantee high-performance application and reduced powder retention. A oor slot in the manual zones makes for more eective powder removal. The automatic zone is closed o by deectors, meaning that the rest of the booth remains powder-free during application. The operator cleans the entire booth from the outside using an ultra-light blow gun designed for eortless cleaning. More Ergonomic: > The system design has given priority to the operators health and comfort: The at oor makes it easy for the operator to move freely near the parts being painted. > Every eort has been made to provide the operator with as healthy a working environment as possible: Side deectors provide protection against the automatic spray guns. If the manual spray gun moves away from the part being painted, the new clean hands electrical feature ensures that no paint is sprayed back onto the operator. The remote controls at the back of the Mach-Jet spray gun can be used to adjust powder ow and the high-voltage supply without leaving the booth.
