Soft Start Configuration
Soft start minimizes powder surging when the guns are triggered on. It can
be used with all Sure Coat, Versa-Spray, or Tribomatic guns.
NOTE: These settings apply to all guns. They cannot be set or controlled
for individual guns or presets.
Soft start ramps up the flow-rate and atomizing air flow to the preset flow
settings over the specified time. It starts automatically when the spray guns
are triggered on.
NOTE: With soft start, the powder flow takes longer to reach the preset
setting, which could cause low film build at the leading edge of a part. To
compensate for this, increase the preset lead settings so that the spray
guns turn on farther ahead of the part.
To use soft start:
1. Enable soft start.
2. Set the ramp timer (0−7.5 seconds, in 0.5 second intervals).
