Tribomatic ®
Powder Spray Guns
Nordson® Tribomatic “frictional
electrostatic charging” technology
delivers exceptionally smooth
finishes and excellent penetration
into part recesses for high-quality
powder coating results. Spray guns
include the Tribomatic II automatic
gun, Tribomatic 500 manual gun,
and the Tribomatic manual and
automatic “wand” gun for selected
internal coating applications.
The Tribomatic II automatic gun is designed for use
with the Nordson® iControl® gun control system. The
Tribomatic 500 manual gun and Tribomatic wand are
designed for use with the Nordson Vantage® control units.
Tribomatic 500 Manual Spray Gun

The Tribomatic 500 manual spray gun provides excellent
tribo-charge performance in a lightweight, well-balanced
design. The gun weighs less than 500 grams, which is much
lighter than other manual tribo-charge spray guns.
The Tribomatic 500 manual spray gun applies very smooth finishes
and provides excellent penetration into Faraday cage areas and
superior “wrap.” The inside of the gun is streamlined to provide
high-charging efficiency in a compact design. It has a small outside
diameter, which improves the operator’s reach into contours of
the part.
The Tribomatic 500 gun uses a variation of Nordson’s wave-charging
process that provides highly effective electrostatic charging for
maximum transfer efficiency, as well as ease of routine cleaning
and maintenance.
The Tribomatic 500 spray gun includes an adjustable
conical nozzle for fast, easy spray-pattern control, from a
large, soft pattern to a narrow penetration pattern.
Flexibility to Meet Your Needs

Available in electric vibratory box feeder and conventional fluidized hopper mobile systems, as well as in a wallmount configuration, the Tribomatic® 500 system offers
convenience and flexibility to meet a broad range of
powder coating requirements.

The vibratory box feeder model supplies powder direct from the
manufacturer’s shipping container for fast color-change operations.
Two fluidized hopper models, 23 kg (50 lb.) and 36 kg (80 lb.)
capacities, provide more consistent powder delivery, and
especially with more difficult-to-spray textured and metallic
powders. The hoppers are easily disassembled for routine
cleaning and color change.
Tribomatic Wand

The Tribomatic wand is designed to coat the inside surfaces
of elongated products such as pipe and tubing. It can produce
a variety of spray patterns for consistent surface coverage.
In operation, the Tribomatic wand is placed through the part to
be coated, then triggered on as the gun is retracted from the part.
A centering device is available to keep the gun centered in the part.
The Tribomatic wand includes a hand-held remote trigger for
enhanced operator convenience and control. A variety of spray
nozzles and extensions are available to
effectively coat a wide
range of products.
