APSON Spraying Bells
1. Introduction
APSON spraying bells are high-speed rotators for yielding and
fine dissipation of liquid media. Typical media are normal
lacquers, metalic lacquers or other aggressive liquids, e.g.
solvents.
2. Structure
APSON spraying bells are rotationally symmetrically developed.
They usually consist of at least two parts - the front part
and the coat.
The front part usually
consists of polished inoxidable steel, aluminum, titanium
or plastic.
It has also the task to connect the spraying bell
anti-swiveling with the shaft as well as to lead the
medium in a thin layer to the edge of the spraying bell
during the application.
The edge of the spraying bell can be executed knurled
or smoothly.
There are spraying bells for turbines with hollow
or full rotor shaft.
The coat consists usually
of lighter material, e.g. aluminum or plastic.
It has the task to determine the flow conditions of the air
in direct proximity of the spraying bell.
3. Function
During the application, at the spraying bell is applied a high
Direct Current Voltage from -40 to -80 Kilovolts,
referred to earth potential (0 Volt).
The objects which are to be sprayed are held on earth potential.
At rated speed from 40,000 to 60,000 revolutions per minute
the electrically charged medium yields through the center
of the front surface.
Because of strong centrifugal forces the medium flows over the edge
of the front surface into the strongly whirling ambient air.
Due to the detachment of the medium, from the edge of the bell
fine negatively charged medium droplets are generated.
If the medium was sufficient strongly loaded, the droplets
shatter in the air into a still smaller medium fog.
This fog is attracted by the object to be sprayed due to
the dominant electrical field.
In this way the fine spray deposits even on those object
surfaces that are turned away from the bell.
4. Ordering
APSON has experience of many years in the
production and repair
of spraying bells for electrostatic painting.
There are the following Ordering options:
New spraying bells can be
manufactured according to specification of the customer.
Condition is a Written Explanation of the Customer that he has
copyrights or manufacturing rights of the respective
spraying bell or bell type.
Alternatively APSON develops and produces
inexpensive and high-quality Compatible Spraying Bells
for already existing Plants.
These obtain the same high painting quality as the original bells.
From arguments of Right they must have however different
geometrical dimensions than the originally employed bells.
Furthermore APSON delivres inexpensive and high-quality
Repared Spraying Bells.
These obtain a similar high painting quality as the new bells.
