In principle two different powder charging processes are used for powder coating:

ELECTROSTATIC CHARGING

Corona charging of the powder is done by an electric spray gun.

TRIBO CHARGING

Triboelectric guns charge the powder particles using friction when the particle comes in contact with the walls of the gun and feed tube.
