"Quick Change" Spray Guns

Changeable end arm tooling is nothing new in the machining industry, but not many have attempted it in the paint industry. Thierica was challenged by one of it’s customers to change colors between racks without wasting solvent or paint. General Manager, Lou McGough, took on the project and developed what we are calling “Quick Draw Technology”. Not only does Quick Draw allow for fast color change between parts without waste, but you can even spray non-compatible paint chemistries because the fluid contact parts go with the gun. When a gun is not in use, the robot simply “holsters” it in a holder on the booth wall. You could even combine a flush box with the “holstered” gun(s) so you could flush and change color in them while you are spraying another color. The number of guns in the system is really only governed by the number of hoses that are practical in the booth and the robot reach. The sky is the limit when it comes to applications of this new technology. Do you have a use for “Quick Draw”? Or maybe you have another application challenge. Call us. We would be happy to work with you finding solutions to your finishing problems.
