Abstract

In oder nahe bei dem Zerstäuber einer Beschichtungseinrichtung zur Serienbeschichtung von Werkstücken mit unterschiedlichen Farbtönen befindet sich eine Dosiervorrichtung (10) insbesondere mit einem Kolbendosierer (20) oder einer Dosierpumpe (100), die für jede der in der Praxis am häufigsten benötigten Farben einen eigenen Eingang mit eingebautem Farbventil (FV) hat. Für weniger häufig benötigte Farben kann ein gesonderter Farbwechsler (12) vorgesehen sein, dessen Ausgang mit einem weiteren Eingang der Dosiervorrichtung (10) oder über eine eigene Dosiervorrichtung mit dem Ausgangsventil des Zerstäubers verbunden ist.

Figure imgaf001
In or near the atomizer of a coating device for serial coating of workpieces with different colors is a metering device (10) in particular with a piston dispenser (20) or a metering pump (100), which has its own input for each of the colors most commonly used in practice with built-in color valve (FV) has. For less frequently required colors, a separate color changer (12) may be provided, whose output is connected to a further input of the metering device (10) or via its own metering device to the outlet valve of the atomizer.
