Precision Dispense Valve Applies Coatings Evenly, Without Overspray or Mist
EFD's Low Volume Low Pressure spray valve system applies drug solutions and other coatings to stents and catheters in precise amounts. The LVLP design uses a low fluid rate to apply coatings as a soft, precise spray. This ensures high transfer efficiency without overspray or mist. Consistent placement and thickness increases yields, reduces production costs, and improves process control. Free LVLP white paper.
