Two-Fluid Nozzles
(Air Atomizing Nozzles)
When your process needs ultra-fine mist, stable atomization, or precise liquid dosing, a two-fluid nozzle is often the most reliable solution.
Why Two-Fluid Atomization Beats “Higher Pressure”
If you are trying to create smaller droplets by simply increasing liquid pressure, you’ll quickly hit limits: unstable spray, high pump load, inconsistent coverage.
Two-fluid nozzles solve this differently: compressed air (or gas) assists atomization, breaking liquid into finer droplets at controlled conditions.
Where customers see the biggest ROI:
- Lower liquid consumption with better dispersion
- More uniform mist distribution
- Better control at low flow rates
- Faster process response (on/off modulation)
Air + Liquid = Precision
“Widely used for cooling, coating, dust suppression, lubricating, humidification, and more.”
Internal Mix vs External Mix
Which Two-Fluid Nozzle Do You Need?
Internal Mix
PrecisionAir and liquid merge inside the nozzle, then exit as an atomized spray.
Best For:
- Fine atomization stability
- Consistent spray behavior
- Uniformity > Max Flow
External Mix
RobustnessAir and liquid meet outside the nozzle tip, creating atomization at the outlet.
Best For:
- Higher liquid flow demand
- Handling challenging fluids
- Reducing internal clogging risk
The Real Problems Buyers Face (And What a Custom Nozzle Fixes)
Two-fluid systems are powerful—but many fail because the nozzle is treated as a generic accessory. A custom design fixes this by matching your target droplet quality, air-to-liquid ratio, and fluid properties.
Inconsistent Atomization
Breaks down when conditions change
Unpredictable Air Usage
High consumption costs
Clogging & Wear
Under dirty liquids
Leakage Issues
Mating surfaces fail
What Makes Rapidaccu Different?
A two-fluid nozzle is not just a threaded part—its performance depends on micro-features inside the mixing and discharge geometry.
- Precision internal passages
- Concentricity control
- Stable sealing surfaces
- Repeatable machining
