Electrostatic Spray Application for Die Casting - For behind slides, or narrow slits. Adhesion effect with negative charged particles.

What is "Electrostatic spray"?

Electrostatic spray efficiently charges static electricity to fog particles, and the power of static electricity particles adhere to the die surface. This is the invisible third power adhering with electrostatic power.
Normally, die casting machine / forging machine have been grounded (ground earth). Particles charged with negative potential by corona discharge adhered to each part of dies.

What is "WFR for electrostatic spray"?

We succeeded in adding a special electrostatic auxiliaries to original WFR series, to impart conductivity, and allowed the first electrostatic spraying application in die casting. It is now possible to adhere the die lubricant to the point where it was hardly adhere.

Electrostatic spray application makes safety and working environment friendly and repeatability and process control. In addition, particles adhere electrostatically charged die lubricant efficiently with minimum number of spray nozzle to various shape of dies even behind slides where is difficult to spray.

Excellent Adhesion performance with Electrostatic Spray

Electrostatic spray, as compared with conventional air spray, to form a more extensive and thick film.
Floating mist after spray application also adsorbed by electrostatic effect.
