Advantages of siphon feed spray gun 

Siphon feed detail spray gun is suitable for thinner and specialized coating, it can be matched with metal paint and pigment to achieve good results, when you need to create a special coating of spatter effect, siphon feed gun is the best choice. The design of siphon paint sprayer is more intuitive and traditional, which makes the spraying process more convenient.

Feeding principle of siphon spray gun and characteristics

Feeding principle: Siphon spray gun feeding is the use of the process of gas flow will produce negative pressure, and the faster the flow rate, the more pressure reduction, relying on the high-speed flow of air in the gun to stay at the nozzle to generate negative pressure, the paint from the paint cup located below the gun and atomized.

characteristics: The siphon spray gun is a type of air atomizing gun, more precisely an external mixing air gun. It is composed of a spray gun and a siphon paint cup attached to the underside of the gun. The siphon spray gun has an externally mixed air nozzle, which ejects a hollow column of air during operation, creating a vacuum around the paint nozzle and thus drawing the paint up from the siphon paint cup.

Since the weight of the spray gun and the paint can are borne by the operator with one hand during the spraying operation, the worker can be very fatigued when doing the spraying work for a long time. Therefore, the weight of the paint is limited by the operating requirements, and the capacity of the paint cup is generally small, so it is only suitable for small batches of spraying.

A Brief History of Siphon Feed Spray Gun

In the auto repair industry, conventional feed guns were widely used in auto body repair. Then with the development of HVLP (high volume low pressure), most of the conventional feed paint guns in market turned into siphon feed to work in better  efficiency.

What is difference between siphon feed and gravity feed airbrushes?

The siphon gun feed uses the principle that negative pressure is generated during the flow of gas, and that the faster the flow rate, the more the pressure is reduced. Gravity feed gun paints by its own gravity and the negative pressure formed at the front of the paint nozzle from the paint nozzle, and mixed with air atomization of a gun, the paint can is located in the upper part of the gun.
