ELECTROSTATIC FLAW DETECTION

The processing of large component parts through the various stages of liquid dye penetrant flaw detection is often costly and wasteful. The Ardrox Speedspray system has been developed from the electrostatic method of paint spraying. The equipment consists of a high voltage d.c. generator and two pressurized spray units, one for liquid penetrant and one for powder developer, each feeding a spray pistol connected to a high voltage supply.
