There are various nozzles and air caps available as accessories for therespective spraying material and the output amounts.Spray patternUnion nutSpray materialAtomizing air4.5.2 AIR ATOMIZING SPRAY PROCESS - FLAT JETIn this process, the material (paint) is fed to the nozzle with low pressure (0.05-0.2 MPa; 0.5-2 bar; 7-29 psi).The atomizing air at approx. 0.25-0.4 MPa; 2.5-4 bar; 36-58 psi produces a soft jet, which largely eliminates theproblem of overlapping boundaries. The spray jet can be changed using the shaping air.
