  • Method of applying metallic paint
    Patent number: 5324547
    Abstract: A method of applying a metallic paint to an object conveyed by means of a conveyor, by reciprocating one or more rotary atomizing electrostatic painting machines at right angles to the direction in which the object is conveyed. The speed of the reciprocation of the painting machines is controlled according to the speed of the conveyor so that the pitch between the adjacent orbits of the strokes of the reciprocation of the machines drawn on the object may become a predetermined value.

  • Reciprocating painting method
    Patent number: 5110632
    Abstract: There is disclosed a method of painting an object by reciprocating a plurality of painting machines perpendicularly to the direction in which the object is conveyed on a production line. The delivery of paint from the painting machines is cut off at each turn of the orbits drawn by the adjacent ones of the reciprocating painting machines which create overlapping orbits. The starting points and the ending points of the cutoff for the adjacent machines are placed on the same straight line on the object.
