In this process, the spray product is fed to the nozzle at a pressure of 0.05–0.2 MPa; 0.5–2 bar; 7–29 psi. The
atomizing air at approx. 0.25 - 0.4 MPa; 2.5 - 4 bar; 36 - 58 psi produces a soft round jet, which largely eliminates
the problem of overlapping boundaries. The shaping air allows modifi cation of the spray jet. There are various
nozzles and air caps available as accessories for the respective spray product and the discharge quantities.
