4.2 Details of the spray gun

The guns are available in different styles. They differ in the use of a variety of components and/or in the material flow.

Information

Gun heads that are marked with a ″U″ have two material lines, allowing circulation of the coating material through the head. This has the advantage that you can perform a colour change without opening the gun.

Ordering example: AGMD-514 U FF-797c Type of gun Air cap (see table) With circulation=″U″ Nozzle size (see table) Without circulation=″U″ does not apply

5 Installation of the spray gun

The gun is attached to a support plate, which in turn has been fixed to an adaptor. The adaptor is firmly attached to the movement device (robot or hoisting device) or to the tripod. All air pressure and material lines are connected to the adaptor.

5.1 Support plates There is a variety of support plates available to which the AGMD gun can be attached.

5.1.1 Support plate AGMD-245-1

The gun is inserted and locked into its allocated space, at an offset of 45° from its final position. Then, the pistol is turned clockwise by 45° into its position until it clicks into the support plate.

Information For the support plate AGMD-245-1, the gun will be fitted with the locking device AGMD-244.

Information As an alternative to locking device AGMD-244, the centring screw AGMD-044-3 can be used. In that case, you must bolt the gun to the support plate.
