Liquid Atomizing Nozzle Used To Mark Furniture During Production

A major furniture manufacturer recently developed a need to replace an outdated spraying system with an efficient, engineered solution.  The need was to mark a production piece as it travels from one process to the next along a linear conveyor.  At intermittent points in the conveyor there is an opening through which liquid can be sprayed, but the opening is small and the available time is short.

The photo above shows the mounted nozzle awaiting final connection to air and liquid supply lines.  The pressure of these supply lines, combined with the fine tuning of the needle valve (top center of the Atomizing Nozzle) allow the liquid flow of the application to be dialed in to precisely the right point.  (Note that the photo has been rotated 180° and the nozzle actually sprays liquid upward.  EXAIR Atomizing Nozzles can be installed in any orientation.)

This application, with limited space and instantaneous or near-instantaneous liquid spray needs, is a great fit for an EXAIR Atomizing Nozzle.

Fast delivery, and precision control are two of the biggest advantages to using an engineered solution.  If you have an application in need of an atomized liquid spray, contact an EXAIR Application Engineer.

It’s as easy as Pi

Published on by Brian FarnoLeave a comment

First off, I would like to say happy Pi Day!  To anyone that has to deal with math every day, or if you are a nerd like myself (and most of the rest of the crew here), then you know your 8th grade math teacher wasn’t lying when she said you’ll use this when your an adult.

So here at EXAIR the wonderful Professor Penurious has graced us all with pie for Pi day.

Wow, there is a TON of pie around here today!!

As I sit here eating a wonderful piece of cherry pie, I am thinking of how I had a customer that was wanting to buy the smallest Atomizing Spray Nozzle we offer, they currently had a model EB1040SS which is our largest External Mix Wide Angle Flat Fan Spray Nozzle.  Due to the versatility of our Liquid Spray Nozzles, instead of buying an entire new nozzle, the customer was able to simply buy just an Air and Liquid Cap.  They were extremely pleased with this solution due to the fact it is merely a trial situation and they aren’t quite sure what they need to achieve their goal.  What they do know is, they can buy multiple caps to interchange on their single body and perform all the testing they wish to determine what will cover their plethora of applications.

If you have any questions or would like see which of our versatile products will fit your application, please let me know.

In case you don’t normally read the EXAIR blog, the general consensus among all the engineers here is that you can never have enough information.  To ensure that we pass on as much information as possible to our customers we have added even more to our website.  This time, we have given a vast amount of information on our Atomizing Spray Nozzles.

This information will allow you to easier select the appropriate Atomizing Spray Nozzle for the application.  Whether it is spraying a liquid coolant onto a drill press to help cool and lubricate the operation or painting parts, the information is there to help better assist you the customer.

Take a look at the new page and if there is anything that you don’t see there, let us know.  We may still have it in our files, if not, maybe we can get it for you fast.
