Technical information

The abrasive compound must leave the tank at 4-5 atm; to operate low pressure guns use 5-6 atm; for high pressure guns follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

The low pressure gun sprays the compound at a force equal to that of the air supply to which it is connected (5-6 atm); the high pressure gun, which incorporates a multiplier, sprays the compound at a pressure 20-30 times superior than that of the air supply.

High pressure gun is necessary when the compound sprayed by a normal pressure gun is wasted by the polishing mops centrifugal force. High pressure gun saves a lot of compound and due to the different angles of the nozzles (40°, 65°, 90° and 120° can be chosen) one sinlge gun can spray the polishing wheel from 2 to 50 cm. wide.

The choise between the two types depends on the different purchase prices and the specific requirements of the work to be done.
The use of an automatic distribution system will give the following advantages:

• the siletto is not just a package for the compound, but a basic component of the equipment, where you pour the liquid compound from the standard packages, which are 25 Kg. carton boxes, 30 Kg. metal pails, 275-285 Kg. metal drums.
• the filling up operation of the empty tanks is carried out without stopping the polishing machine, since the siletto is not a pressure tank;
• the filling up operation is easy and speedy;
• a long autonomy after the filling up;
• more space and order in the polishing department.
  

Components

We provide the components necessary to the spraying of liquid abrasive compounds: pressure tanks, filters, pumps, low and high pressure sprayguns, feeder, adaptors, manometers, electric valves, nozzles and so on. For pumps and sprayguns, we provide spare parts and instruction manuals.

Spraying and feeding system

The best way of using liquid abrasive compounds is that of spraying them with low or high-pressure guns, by means of a centralized system, so as to obtain a light, regular and uniform supply.

The supply of solid abrasive compound is made by means of a pneumatic feeder, mod. COSMEC, applied on both manual and automatic polishing machines.

Special compounds

The range of the special compounds includes specific solutions for special applications and operations, such as the tallow compound to lubricate the belts and the flap wheels of abrasive cloth; the solid compounds to bright finish polyester and plastic, marble, granite and polyurethane shoes soles.

Solid compounds

Thanks to the high abrasive and lubricating power, the solid abrasive compounds are suitable for the polishing operations of all metals, both on manual and automatic and semi-automatic polishing machines.

The solid compounds with natural abrasives are suitable for the surface treatment of the brass and other alloys, while the solid compounds with synthetic abrasives have a high mirror finishing power on stainless steel and ferrous metals.

The supply of solid abrasive compounds is made by means of a pneumatic feeder – model “COSMEC”, applied on both manual and automatic polishing machines – which feeds the compound on to rotating buffs in such a way to obtain a perfect dosing, a correct pressure on the buffs, less waste of unused compound and, in case of manual machine, it allows the operator to have both hands free. The feeder can employ compound bars having the max dimensions of 160 mm., length 500 mm., height 50 mm.
