Although a spray system may be a small part of an operation, spray optimisation can have a major impact on product quality and productivity. The benefits of precision spray control can be considerable, especially if when spraying high-cost fluids or if product quality is affected by spraying operations.
Industries that can benefit significantly from a precision spraying system include:
* Food processing.
* Chemical processing.
* Automotive and metal fabrication.
* Pulp and paper.
* Roofing materials.
* Cement.
* Steel.
Automating your spray application can pay itself in just a few months by:
* Reducing overspray and saving chemicals.
* Reducing manual labour.
* Improving product quality through precise and uniform coating.
* Simplifying production line setup and reducing downtime.
* Increasing throughput and conveyor speed.
* Improving regulatory compliance and emission control.
AutoJet Spray systems monitor, control and ensure peak performance of spray nozzles, providing quick payback through improved product quality and production efficiency. These systems range in complexity from manual valve packages to fully automated systems using closed-loop control. No matter how simple or complex the solution, AutoJet Spray Systems use precision nozzles as the starting point in the three-step design process.
The spray optimisation begins with selecting the best spray nozzle for an application. With nozzles available in dozens of materials, hundreds of configurations and thousands of sizes, Spraying Systems can provide the right nozzle for all manufacturing needs.
AutoJet Technologies is the spray control automation division of Spraying System and has learnt by experience that a spray nozzle can only perform properly if the entire spray system operates efficiently. All system components – nozzles, pumps, sensors and other apparatus – must be accurately controlled to optimise nozzle performance.
From basic on/off control to fully-automated, closed-loop spray control, AutoJet Spray Systems can make production more efficient. Systems equipped with AutoJet Spray Controllers feature powerful on-board application software that eliminates the need for on-site programming. The dedicated spray controllers can monitor and automatically adjust spray performance to compensate for changes in operating conditions that affect productivity.
Basic control
Manual valve packages
Manually monitor and regulate key spray control inputs. Complete systems include nozzles, pressure tanks, valves and regulators. Components are enclosed in single panel for easy wall mounting.
Intermediate control
Model 2050 spray controllers
Pre-set spray variables are electronically monitored in real-time. Onboard timing control software maximises automatic spray nozzle performance.
Advanced control
Model 2250 spray control
Pre-programmed spray controller monitors and automatically adjusts spray performance based on your process variables, such as conveyor speed, temperature and batch control.
