Krautzberger M 18 HVLP Automatic Spray Gun Review: Specs, Price and Applications
The Krautzberger M 18 HVLP is a compact automatic spray gun with a one-piece stainless steel head and titanium-grey anodized main body for easy cleaning, used for applications such as dielectric coatings in EV battery housings and rubber profiles.
It supports round, flat, rotary and full-cone rotary jets and HVLP; a new air distributor ring improves the pattern, a calotte centres the air nozzle, colour-coded markings and a click system aid nozzle alignment, and XLINE extensions fit the M 18v.
Quick Verdict
A robust, easy-to-service automatic gun with a broad jet choice, well suited to functional coatings.

Design and Operating Principle
Robotic painting depends on a spray gun that produces a stable, repeatable fan and atomisation, switches precisely on robot signals and can be cleaned or serviced quickly. Transfer efficiency, the share of paint that lands on the part, drives material cost and overspray.
RP (reduced pressure) and HVLP (high volume, low pressure) technologies atomise paint at lower pressure than conventional guns, raising transfer efficiency and reducing overspray.
Separate flat and round jet air allows fan shaping, and the calotte-centred nozzle gives a reproducible pattern.
Integration and Selection
Mount the gun on the robot with the appropriate holder, connect atomising air, control air and material supply, and program trigger timing with path speed.
Test spray patterns and film thickness on sample parts before production.
