Automated Nozzle Cleaning System Clean airless spray nozzles automatically for improved coating quality and increased productivity ■ Automatically cleans nozzles after lacquer sprays without stopping production for increased quality nozzle design directs spray Cleaning. nozzle design ■ Soft-seat design of the gun module provides improved durability and a drip- and drool-proof nozzle cutoff. ■ Precise mounting design facilitates production set-up, lacquer gun nozzle change and gun rebuild. Eliminates removal of CleanSpray XT gun for repeatable lacquer gun nozzle positioning without stopping production. ■ Easily retrofits to existing applications. CleanSpray controller integrates with timing mechanism of lacquer spray gun. Indexer automatically resets when cleaning spray occurs. ■ Stand-alone controller can be located at each spray machine. Multi-gun controller is conveniently located in spray area. ■ Adjustable mounting bracket provides angular position and in/out adjustment Mounting brackets for many types of spray machines Nordson air-operated stainless steel pump features a mechanical air valve for reliable, fast cycling. Pneumatic-powered pumps feature patented ScoreGuard pistons for long service life. Electric or pneumatic operating pumps available. Simple, inexpensive Nordson CleanSleeve gun covers provide better protection than cardboard shields. Easy to install and replace, they are custom-fit for Nordson airless spray guns. The patented Nordson CleanSpray XT system automatically cleans airless spray nozzles quickly and effectively, without stopping normal production on the spray machine. The innovative system sprays a low-pressure, short-duration mist of water directly on the nozzle. This process washes away excess coating between lacquer sprays to keep the nozzle face free of material buildup. The result is repeatable and accurate spray deposition for increased production without maintenance. In conventional canmaking operations, if the CleanSpray System is not used, a large portion of the spray operator's time is required to manually clean nozzles. When nozzles are not cleaned on a frequent basis (as often as once or twice an hour), nozzle capping or partial capping will begin, resulting in spray pattern rejects. If manual cleaning deposited into cans, also resulting in quality rejects.

CleanSpray® XT Automated Nozzle Cleaning System The CleanSpray XT system cleans nozzles automatically — at the right time and in the right way. Depending on the coating characteristic, manual nozzle cleaning can be reduced to as little as once every 12 hours. And because the automatic process is consistent, variation caused by different operator techniques and capabilities is eliminated. The CleanSpray XT automated nozzle cleaning system easily retrofits to existing applications. A typical installation uses less than one fluid ounce of water per hour for each gun, which rapidly evaporates. A...
