DESCRIPTION OF UNIT
3.1 
AIRLESS PROCESS
The main area of application are thick layers of highly viscous 
coating material.
At the Finish 370 / 250 unit a diaphragm pump takes in the 
coating materials and transports it via a high-pressure hose 
to the spray gun with the airless tip. Here the coating material 
atomizes since it is pressed through the tip core at a maximum 
pressure of 25 MPa (250 bar, 3625 psi). This high pressure has 
the eff ect of micro fi ne atomisation of the coating material.
As no air is used in this process, it is described as an AIRLESS 
process.
This method of spraying has the advantages of fi nest atomi-
sation, cloudless operation (depending of a correct unit ad-
justment) and a smooth, bubblefree surface. As well as these, 
the advantages of the speed of work and convenience must 
be mentioned.

FUNCTIONING OF THE UNIT
The following section contains a brief description of the tech-
nical construction for better understanding of the function:
Finish 370 / 250 is an electrically driven high-pressure paint 
spraying equipment.
The motor (Item 1) drives directly the hydraulic pump.
A piston (2) is moved up and down so that hydraulic oil is mo-
ved under the diaphragm (3) which then moves.
In detail:
The downwards movement of the machine opens the disk in-
let valve (4) automatically and coating material is sucked in.
During the upwards movement of the diaphragm, the coating 
material is displaced and the outlet valve opens while the inlet 
valve is closed.
The coating material fl ows under high pressure through the 
high-pressure hose to the spray gun and is atomized when it 
exists from the tip.
The pressure control valve limits the set pressure in the hy-
draulic oil circuit and thus also the pressure of the coating 
material.
A pressure change when the same tip is used also leads to a 
change in the amount of paint  atomized.
