When the coating line speed is increased to 6 m/min or higher, can the parameter linkage guarantee that there will be no missed steps or reduction in coating quality?

Scope: General electrostatic spraying adjustment logic. This does not replace equipment-specific manuals.

It is possible, but not guaranteed by "parameter linkage" alone. After the wire speed is increased, the effective time for the workpiece to pass through the spraying area is shortened, the reciprocator or robot needs higher synchronous speed and acceleration, and the advance amount of the switch gun, the flow rate of the powder/paint, the atomization gas, the plasticizing gas, the electrostatic parameters and the overlap of the spray amplitude must also be matched. Only when the conveying encoder, controller, motion shaft, feeding system and spraying process have sufficient margin and pass the continuous test of representative workpieces can it be confirmed that no step loss, following error, leakage spray, film thickness reduction or appearance deterioration will occur at the target linear speed.
