Compressed air spraying

Compressed air spraying is a widely used process for coating surfaces in which paint, varnish or other coating materials are atomized and evenly applied using compressed air. The coating material is mixed with compressed air in a spray gun and applied to the surface to be coated as a fine mist. This process offers a high degree of flexibility and enables the uniform coating of workpieces with different geometries.

Compressed air spraying is often used in the furniture and automotive industries as well as in the skilled trades, as it enables the material to be applied precisely and evenly. The process delivers good results, particularly on delicate or difficult-to-access surfaces.

One advantage of compressed air spraying is the excellent controllability of the spray jet, which ensures high surface quality and a uniform coating thickness. In addition, various coating materials, such as paints, varnishes or primers, can be processed without any problems.

However, the process is less efficient than other spraying methods due to the high loss of material through overspray. It therefore requires good extraction and protective measures for the environment in order to minimize material loss and health risks. Despite these limitations, compressed air spraying remains a versatile and effective coating process.
