Catch nozzles

Catch nozzles are an important element in powder coating, used to catch excess powder during the coating process and direct it back into the powder system. They are located close to the surface to be painted and catch the excess powder that does not adhere to the surface.

The function of the capture nozzles is to ensure that the powder that does not stick to the surface is not lost, but can be efficiently reused. This helps to reduce powder consumption and improve the efficiency of the painting process.

There are different types of capture nozzles that can be used depending on the specific requirements of the powder coating process. Some capture nozzles use compressed air to extract the excess powder, while others have a passive design and use gravity to direct the powder into a collection system.

The placement and orientation of the capture nozzles are critical to their effectiveness. They must be positioned to effectively capture the excess powder without disturbing or interfering with the paint finish. Careful adjustment of the capture nozzles is therefore required to ensure optimum performance. Overall, capture nozzles play an important role in powder coating by helping to reduce powder consumption, improve the efficiency of the coating process and optimize the quality of the coating. Through their function, they contribute to the cost-effectiveness and sustainability of the powder coating process.
