A Modular Color-Dosing and Color-Changing Painting System

By Dürr
Fluid Board-detail.jpg
March 15, 2024

Dürr has developed a connection between the control unit and applicator for the industrial painting industry: the Fluid Board. The fully assembled color-dosing and color-changing system is unique on the market and allows for fast assembly. By offering the Fluid Board, Dürr is expanding its ready2integrate package, enabling customers to quickly and easily assemble a high-quality solution comprising a controller, dosing technology, and applicator. 

Fluid Board-full.jpgThe Fluid Board is designed to be fully controlled by the EcoAUC control unit, encompassing the most common 1C and 2C processes across low- and high-pressure ranges and supplies the EcoBell2 atomizer or the EcoGun spray gun with paint and rinsing agents. This makes the product ideal for tasks in industrial painting technology, such as in the wood, construction, or automotive supplier industries. The Fluid Board significantly reduces engineering and assembly effort. “The Fluid Board comes fully assembled, so all you need to do is connect hoses and cables,” explains Stephan Voigt, product engineer at Dürr. 

Compact design was the focus during the Fluid Board’s development, so the system can also be installed in small spaces. The Fluid Board is the first product from the industrial painting technology field that Dürr provides with digital, technical documentation. The EcoDocu streamlines the commissioning, operation, and maintenance of the color dosing and color-changing system.

Since the Fluid Board is a modular system consisting of various components, integrators receive complete documentation describing the various components and process diagram examples. The EcoDocu also includes a parts catalog, a shopping cart for recording orders or inquiries, and a user-friendly search function.

For years, Dürr has pursued its ready2integrate concept, aiming to seamlessly align individual products to swiftly assemble a high-quality solution comprising a controller, dosing technology, and applicator. The Fluid Board is another piece of this puzzle, and one with which integrators can quickly install application technology at an end customer via plug-and-play.
