Anti-Bearding Technology

During coating, conventional flat-spray caps gradually accumulate more and more product particles due to the quantity of dust that is circulating. This impairs the spray behaviour, and causes the nozzle to become clogged. This phenomenon is also referred to as ‘beard formation’, or bearding. The SCHLICK Anti-Bearding Cap (ABC) has been specially developed to counteract this. SCHLICK has replaced the geometry of conventional flat jet nozzles with a clever new design. The rounded shape of the ABC nozzle orifice helps reduce turbulence to prevent circulating dust particles From building up on the nozzle. The ABC series also offers perfect upscaling from laboratory to production.
