Abstract
A rotary atomizer including a bell element having a paint tube, a deflector having a conical distribution surface opposite the paint tube outlet, including a tip portion within the paint tube, directing paint to a paint overflow surface through an annular conical channel adjacent the outer edge of a nonconductive end face, an annular electrostatically charged surface surrounding the outer edge of the end face generating an annular electrostatic field and an axial electrode having a sharp distal end in the plane of the annular electrostatically charged surface generating a second axial electrostatic field.
