Abstract
A nozzle for a painting system includes a first electrode, a second electrode, a first magnet and a second magnet. The first magnet is disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode when viewed in a direction parallel to a longitudinal axis of the nozzle. The second magnet is disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode when viewed in the direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the nozzle. The first and second electrodes and the first and second magnets define a passage through which paint is configured to flow.
