Injector technology

Injector technology is an advanced method of powder coating that enables precise and efficient powder application. In contrast to conventional powder application with a spray gun, injector technology uses a special injector gun to feed the powder into the spray air flow system using compressed air.

This technology offers several advantages over traditional powder coating methods. Firstly, it allows for improved control over the powder output and quantity, resulting in a more precise and uniform coating. Secondly, injector technology can achieve a higher transfer efficiency of the powder to the surface, resulting in less powder loss and a more economical operation. Thirdly, it offers the possibility to change different powder materials and colors quickly and easily without the need for time-consuming cleaning and changeover work.

However, the use of injector technology requires special equipment and operator training in order to use the technology effectively. Choosing the right injector gun and fine-tuning the compressed air and powder settings are crucial to the quality and efficiency of the painting process.

Overall, injector technology offers a modern and versatile solution for powder coating that enables precise powder application, improved efficiency and flexibility in production. Thanks to its advantages, it helps to improve the quality of the coating and reduce costs.
