Engineered Solutions

One of LSO Team´s core competence is designing engineered solutions for manual, automated and robotized paint application and fluid handling systems in the General Industry, Automotive Industry and Automotive Components Suppliers Industry.

Our engineered solutions are driven by today´s requirements to increase efficiency and flexibility, shorten color change times, reduce paint waste and usage of flushing media, etc.

Typical engineered solutions are:

  • Machine and robot adaptors for conventional and electrostatic automatic spray guns
  • Multi-valve machine and robot adaptors for automatic spray guns with quick A/B or A/B/C color change features
  • Machine and robot adaptors for 2- and 3-component paint materials with integrated mixing unit
  • Modular color change stacks
  • Paint mix modules
  • etc.

Fittings and Adaptors

Hosco fittings and adaptors are available in a wide variety of configurations with “in-line”, 45° and 90° angle connection points. All of the fittings and adaptors are constructed using the “smooth-bore, cavity-free” features and have large bore circulation flow passageways as standard to minimize shear and resultant pressure loss. Special manufacturing techniques also provide cavity free operation to prevent material “pack out” or contamination and easy to flush and clean in place. Connection points are NPT male or female end from 1/8″ to 1/2″, NPS male in 1/8″ to 3/8″ or female (swivel nut) in 1/4″ or 3/8″, JIC male ends from 1/8″ thru 3/8″, compression ends from 1/4″ thru 5/8″ or metric 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm, 18mm plus DIN style in 13mm and 15mm, tube stub ends in 1/4″, 5/16″, 3/8″ or 1/2″ or metric 10mm, 12mm, 14mm and 16mm. In addition, there are many bulkhead versions, circulation fittings, tees, etc. avaiable.

Ball Valves

Hosco SSBV Compact and HBV Ultra Compact ball valves are designed to provide manual dispense control to a paint station or dispense point in a circulation or piping system. It is a 1/4 turn ball valve design entirely constructed of 304/316 SST in a 7/8″ hex body, with a smooth bore and cavity free 0.280″ (7mm) flow passageway. Available in multiple configurations in NPS/BSP/NPT/BSPT male or female including bulkhead style, compression or bulkhead compression style in fractional inch or metric sizes, tube stub style in fractional or metric sizes up to 18″ or 450mm in overall length. The valves are rated up to 1000PSI/70bar working pressure, and are constructed of materials to resist corrosion or chemical attack with Fluoropolymer packings and seals that provide safe operation and long life in any fluid service. The SSBV family includes an adjustable packing to allow adjustment of handle actuation force or extend packing life if necessary.

Hose Fittings

Hosco hose connectors are designed to provide connections of hose and tubing using robust and industry leading Hosco barb and nut style retention system.

These connectors significantly exceed the performance of other style connectors and provide the highest level of safe and reliable connections found today for use in flammable or hazardous fluid handling.

The stainless steel connectors are available in both spring-guard versions to provide support for the hose or tube at the connector when strain relief is needed, or non spring-guard version for a static or stationary connection point.

The family of hose connectors are avaiable in common sizes of fractional inch or metric hose connection ends, and in straight or compact 90° configurations. The connection point is available in two common ends NPT/BSPT male in 1/8″, 1/4″, 3/8″ sizes or NPS/BSP female swivel nut in 1/4″ and 3/8″ sizes.

Assemblies

Hosco hose assemblies are a unique method of circulating paint or any fluid with the appearance of a single hose system. This solution reduces hose management issues at dispense or spray stations for material needing recirculation by supplying the material in the annulus area between the outside and inside hoses, and returning the material being circulated thru the inside hose.

Versions to apply heated flush materials to spray applicators are available and can be incorporated into robot and automation stations for circulating heated flush materials.

RE-Con Applicator Cleaner

Hosco´s RE-Con robotic environmental containment system provides superior quality decontamination for both bell and automatic spray gun applicators. The system efficiently cleans and dries dirty spray applicators and therewith improves quality by eliminating paint defects caused by dirty atomizers. The system is flexibel and can be used on bell or automatic spray gun applicators, direct or indirect charge applicators, solvent or waterborne paint materials. An integrated flow restrictor eliminates the need for solvent regulation. As the RE-Con cleaner comes without moving parts, the maintenance requirements are at a very low level.
