SOUTHFIELD, MI — The newest atomizer generation from Dürr can make a real contribution to improving overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) in the paint shop. The EcoBell4 reportedly performs color changes faster than any other high-speed rotary atomizer, reduces paint and solvent consumption as well as VOC emissions, and features RFID technology for predictive maintenance. For the first time, Dürr is offering two variations in the same atomizer generation: the basic version for standard applications and the pro version for special processes like 4x1C or 3x2C.
The pro version of the EcoBell4, featuring the new 4-main-needle technology, is the benchmark for efficiency and resource consumption: The patented system needs just four seconds per color change for high-runner paints. The significantly shorter color changes positively impact paint and solvent losses, which are reported to be lower than any other atomizer on the market. Less waste not only cuts operating costs but is also better for the environment with fewer VOCs generated.
