Electrostatics – what are the advantages?

  • Huge savings on paint compared to all other spraying methods. Save 25-80% on paint!
  • No contamination of the surrounding area by paint mist.
  • Significantly reduced coating times due to the electrostatic wrap-around.
  • Drastically reduced solvent emissions to protect the environment, as the paint can be processed at a much higher viscosity (thicker) than with normal spray guns, which also results in faster and better coverage.
  • Less health risk for the painter.
  • If spray booths are already in place, the extraction power can be reduced, which means lower energy costs.
  • Make an appointment with us for a competent consultation on site. Or even better, for a non-binding demonstration in your company, with your paint material and your parts.

How does electrostatic painting work?

All spray and spray application technologies can be extended to include electrostatics .

All processes in electrostatic coating technology use the effect of electrical forces when atomising the coating material.


Correct earthing of high-voltage generator and parts to be painted

What does earthing mean?


In everyday language, "earthing" refers to any connection to a reference potential that is connected to a conductive ground via so-called "earthing conductors". 
Earth electrodes are conductive parts that are in good electrical contact with the ground and whose connection points usually lead out of the ground .
These connection points are usually electrically connected to the equipotential bonding strip.
Depending on their function or local conditions, earth electrodes can be designed in different ways, e.g. as earth rods, earthing tapes or earth plates.

Why ground?
  • Protective measure in accordance with the applicable VDE regulations (DIN VDE 0100) and the low-voltage guidelines, whereby various national differences must be taken into account.
  • Preventing interference emissions as defined by the EMC guidelines
  • For the operation of electrical devices and equipment Determining a common reference potential


Is the earthing correct?

When electrostatic discharges (sparking) occur, high current spikes can briefly occur in the protective conductor, and this can shift the ground potential in the high-voltage generator.
This can cause the electronics to fail. Therefore, the device must be additionally earthed. The cross-section of the earthing conductor should be at least 2.5 mm²!
