System and method for determining spray characteristics

Abstract

There is provided a system and method for determining spray characteristics of a powder or liquid spray. The method including: receiving spray characteristics of the powder or liquid spray; generating a spray map comprising correlating the received spray characteristics to spray application characteristics, operational parameters of a spray apparatus, or both, the correlations determined using a calibration of the scanning measurements; and outputting the spray map. In a particular case, the method further including adjusting operational parameters of the spray apparatus to achieve a specific performance of application of the spray using the spray map.
