  • Patent number: 10471445
    Abstract: A coating machine component, e.g., a bell plate for a rotary atomizer, and corresponding production methods are disclosed. An exemplary coating machine component includes a molded base body and a functional element for providing at least one of mechanical stiffening, chemical and/or electrical functionalizing of the coating machine component. The functional element may be made from a material having a greater mass density than the base body. An exemplary functional element may be a coating that is at least partially applied to the base body.

  • Patent number: 9061309
    Abstract: A painting station, e.g., for serially painting components such as motor vehicles, is disclosed. A painting station may include at least one painting cell in which components are coated, e.g., with a paint, that has a certain layer thickness. At least one measuring cell is provided for measuring the layer thickness of the paint, e.g., with a radiation source, a radiation detector, and a conveying path along which the components to be coated are conveyed through the painting and measuring cells. The radiation source may emit light in the visible wavelength range.
