Launched at the Coating East trade show held in Nashville, Trilogy spray systems are designed with coating versatility in mind. Featuring two atomization technologies – air spray and high volume, low pressure (HVLP) – Trilogy systems deliver superior application performance with a variety of substrates, coatings and part profiles. Trilogy electrostatic spray systems are available in manual or automatic gun models that incorporate the latest in engineering and design materials.

“Nordson pioneered liquid coating technology and we continue to provide innovative solutions to the industry,” explains Todd Hain, global marketing manager, Nordson industrial coatings and automotive division. “We’re excited to launch a new product like the Trilogy gun, which takes painting performance to a new level. Not only does it provide superior application properties, but its design will reduce fatigue for the operator.”

At 93 kV, Trilogy systems provide superior transfer efficiency and paint wrap. With the strongest electrostatic load lines, voltage remains consistently high – even as gun-to-part distances change – ensuring high efficiency coverage. Equipped with Nordson air caps, Trilogy guns produce fine particle atomization at lower pressures for improved paint-to-part transfer with minimal overspray. With a Trilogy system, extreme fan pattern control from four to 20 inches is also achieved through fast, easy air adjustments that can accommodate varying part configurations. The increased transfer efficiency and fan pattern control saves money on coatings and rejects.

Other benefits of the Trilogy system include:

• Ergonomic, handle-forward design provides better balance and improved operator comfort
• Automatic current limiting allows for greater control of charging, which translates to better part coverage whatever the part profile
• Quick-flush fluid passages for ease of cleaning and maintenance
• Rugged gun bodies minimize maintenance costs and downtime
• More than 50 fluid tip and air cap combinations for even greater flexibility
