Photo above: Each nozzle type is designed for a specific type of target and application. For example, a nozzle designed for broadcast spraying is not good for spraying pesticides over a narrow band.

It is 25 years since British Crop Protection Council introduced the current classification system for sprayer nozzles. Since then the system, which classifies nozzles according to droplet size – very ...

Staring at a sprayer nozzle catalog can stir up a mix of emotions; confusion, frustration and anger are some that may rise to the top. One nozzle should not be used for all products — but that is ...

Matching pesticides with the correct nozzle type can seem intimidating, especially when browsing through those nozzle charts with many colors and small print. Here’s advice for making the selection ...

John Deere’s ExactApply “intelligent” sprayer nozzle and ‘”smart” AutoLube systems are due to receive special awards and merits at SIMA 2017 in Paris. The ExactApply sprayer nozzle system is claimed ...

A new spraying system developed by Pentair Hypro makes it possible for operators to change from one nozzle to another at the flick of a switch. It enables operators to easily change between pesticide ...

The basic operating principle of a wet scrubber is to pass a gas flow through an atomised spray which then interacts with the gas flow and knocks out contaminants. Those contaminants can be liquid ...

Pulse-width modulation (PWM) sprayers can improve application accuracy through flow control, turn compensation, and high-resolution overlap control by pulsing an electronically-actuated solenoid valve ...

In recent years, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology has expanded to include UAV sprayers capable of applying pesticides. Very little research has been conducted to optimize application ...

The Italian-made Stubble Jet CFA-T nozzle from ASJ Spray-Jet has an outlet angled backwards 13 degrees to compensate for forward speed, while maintaining droplet ­momentum. Introduced to Australia ...

Abstract: Existing 3D printing simulators target extrusion-based methods, which cannot be directly applied to spray-based methods. This letter presents a new computational method for simulating ...
