Abstract

A spray gun for producing an atomized liquid spray jet is provided with fan-shaped shaping air jets which impinge the atomized liquid spray jet to form a fan-shaped atomized liquid spray jet. The shaping air jets are supplied pressurized air which is controlled separately from the atomizer air. The fan-shaped shaping air jets are formed by intersecting air jets, deflected air jets, or air jets emitted from a slotted nozzle.
