Abstract
A system, including an electrostatic spray system, including an electrostatic tool configured to spray a material with an electrostatic charge, and a controller and wherein the controller is configured to change modes of the electrostatic tool, and wherein the modes are different processes that change the rate of material discharge, how much electrical charge is applied to the material, and when electrical charge is applied to the material.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- an electrostatic spray system, comprising:
- an electrostatic tool configured to spray a material with an electrostatic charge;
- and
- a controller and wherein the controller is configured to change modes of the electrostatic tool, and wherein the modes are different processes that change the rate of material discharge, how much electrical charge is applied to the material, and when electrical charge is applied to the material.
A system comprising:
- an electrostatic tool controller configured to change operating modes of an electrostatic tool that discharges electrically charged material with slow rates of electrical charge decay.
A method for producing a part with an electrostatic spray system, comprising:
- powering an electrostatic tool with a power source;
- electrically charging a material;
- spraying the material with the electrostatic tool;
- changing the electric charge on the material while spraying;
- and
- discontinue spraying the material.
A method for producing a part with an electrostatic spray system, comprising:
- powering an electrostatic tool with a power source;
- electrically charging a material;
- spraying the electrically charged material with the electrostatic tool;
- gradually reducing the amount of electrically charged material sprayed;
- and
- discontinue spraying the material.
