Powder Coating Gun Tribo PRO - Professional Stationary System for Precise Results

The Tribo PRO powder coating gun in the Core Edition is the perfect choice for all users looking for a high-performance, stationary system for permanent use in their coating booth. With this model, we intentionally omit mobile accessories such as the transport case to offer you the pure, high-precision Tribo technology for your permanent workshop workspace at the best possible price-performance ratio.

The Tribo PRO in Practical Application

Watch the following video to see how the Tribo PRO powder coating gun effortlessly masters complex geometries. Pay special attention to the smooth, constant powder output, which is responsible for extremely smooth surfaces without orange peel.

Note: The video demonstrates the handling and coating thickness distribution of the Tribo system.

Technical Benefits & Construction

  • Tribo Technology: Optimal friction-based charging means no Faraday cage effect, allowing for effortless coating of corners, angles, and deep crevices in alloy wheels.
  • Wear-Resistant: Robust construction designed for daily workshop use and small-scale series production.
  • Fast Color Changes: The intuitive system featuring 500ml cups allows you to switch colors in a matter of seconds.
  • Safety & Quality: Due to the Tribo principle, there is no risk of extreme high-voltage electrical arcing, making application safer while guaranteeing a smoother surface finish.

How the Powder Gun Technology Works

The powder coating gun charges the powder particles internally via friction against a specialized PTFE plastic. Similar to dust clinging to a monitor screen, the powder securely adheres to the workpiece after spraying purely due to this electrostatic charge. Compared to high-voltage systems (up to 100 kV), no aggressive electrical field is built up. This prevents unsightly "orange peel" and allows the powder to flow deeper into tight recesses.

Practical Notes for Professionals

Why Tribo instead of High-Voltage?
The Tribo process is the top choice for complex components such as wheel faces or heat sinks. Since no strong electrical field is generated between the gun and the component, the powder "flies" deeper into corners that often remain uncoated when using purely high-voltage systems.

The Perfect Setup:
For industrial-grade results, we recommend combining this system with our professional curing ovens. Furthermore, pay close attention to air quality: a high-quality water separator installed directly before the gun is absolutely mandatory to ensure a constant static charge of the powder.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Why should I choose the Tribo PRO without a case?
This version is ideal for anyone who has their equipment permanently installed in their workshop or coating booth. You get the full professional technology without paying extra for the mobile transport system.

Is this gun suitable for coating alloy wheels?
Absolutely. Thanks to its Tribo technology, it is a specialist for rims, delivering the powder perfectly into the tight spaces between the spokes.

Does the device require an electrical connection?
Yes, the included EU Schuko power plug is required to operate the internal support electronics for proper static stabilization.
