Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1514609A2] The exterior surface of a pipe is coated around its full perimeter without rotation of the pipe or the complete coating apparatus. In one example, the coating apparatus includes coating heads attached to a rotor with the coating material supplied under positive air pressure via a stator. The coating heads rotate with the rotor and eject coating material onto the exterior surface of the pipe. In a second example, the coating apparatus is stationary and coating material is delivered under positive air pressure through chambers within the apparatus.
