Overspray

When overspray is a term used spray and spray applications the amount of sprayed material ( eg paint, insulation and adhesives ), which does not reach the workpiece, but escapes in the form of spray into the environment.

Overspray caused by pre- spraying the workpiece and by laterally flowing, fine paint droplets from the workpiece surface. The material losses thus depend both on the workpiece geometry as well as the spray technology used and their handling. By supporting techniques such as electrostatic methods, and advanced spraying techniques, such as HVLP technology or Viskositätsnachführung ( regulating the material flow even with variation in material viscosity ), as well as optical camera systems for live monitoring of the location and quality during application the portion of the overspray can be reduced considerably.

Term overspray is also used in the spray - tanning. Instead of " paint ", " Spray Lotion" is sprayed on, instead of " work " the human body is meant. The material losses depend directly on the spray technology used.

Currently, three spray technologies are used:

The third spray technology is currently the fastest and most economical.
