Types Of Spraying Machinery And Spray Characteristics

Types of sprayers

Sprayers are divided into two categories: manpower type and power type according to the power used. Manual type, also known as manual type, is a kind of machinery that sprays liquid medicine with manual operation, which has the characteristics of simple structure, easy manufacturing, convenient use and maintenance, and low price. Power type is divided into two types of motorized and machine-led type, it is powered by internal combustion engine, electric motor or tractor, and the plant protection machine that sprays the liquid medicine on the crops by using spraying parts, and the power sprayer has the advantages of wide working width, high production efficiency and uniform spraying.

Spray Features:

Spraying refers to applying a certain pressure to the liquid medicine, which is atomized into 100-300 micron droplets through the nozzle and sprayed onto crops. Sprays are an important aspect of chemical control, as many agents are liquids themselves, and others are powders that can be dissolved or suspended in water. The advantage of spraying is that it can make the droplets spray farther, spread more evenly, have good privacy and are less affected by the climate, the liquid medicine can be better covered on the plant, and the effect is longer-lasting, therefore, it has a better control effect and economic effect. However, due to the fact that the medicinal solution needs to be diluted with a large amount of water, its application in areas where water is scarce and far from the water source is limited, which is its disadvantage. In addition, the spray requires a higher pressure, so the power consumption is high.
