Specialty Coating Systems And Sono-Tek Corporation Announce New Relationship

New SCS Precisioncoat spray coating system couples with Sono-Tek ultrasonic atomizing nozzles

INDIANAPOLIS - Specialty Coating Systems, Indianapolis, Ind., and Sono-Tek Corporation, Milton, N.Y. (OTC Bulletin Board: SOTK - News), announced today that the new SCS Precisioncoat spray coating system will feature Sono-Tek ultrasonic atomizing nozzles.

SCS, the industry leader in Parylene conformal coating services and technologies, launched its new Precisioncoat spray coating system today. The new Precisioncoat platform provides the industry with leading-edge technology and programming flexibility to allow for maximum accuracy and repeatability.

The SCS Precisioncoat is the first spray coating system from SCS with ultrasonic capabilities and incorporates Sono-Tek ultrasonic atomizing nozzles as the primary means to atomize the liquid being sprayed. Ultrasonic nozzles from Sono-Tek have the ability to vary drop size by changing nozzle frequency and are ideal for applications requiring ultra-low flow rates and thin film coatings. The ultrasonic nozzles are also non-clogging, and work excellent with the new VOC-free conformal coatings that are becoming more common.

Sono-Tek CEO and President, Dr. Christopher L. Coccio, stated "We are excited to be working together with SCS. They have a well-recognized name in the industry and are known for high quality products and innovative coating technologies. Our unique ultrasonic atomizing nozzles are an ideal addition for many SCS spray coating applications."

SCS President & CEO, John W. Fry, commented, "SCS' new Precisioncoat spray coating system offers advanced spray coating technologies to our customers including this leading-edge technology from Sono-Tek, who is considered the world leader in ultrasonic atomizing nozzles. Our joint development efforts will allow us to provide a user-friendly coating platform with the precision and flexibility that only ultrasonic spray can offer."

APEX attendees are invited to visit Specialty Coating Systems (Booth 609) and Sono-Tek (Booth 1185) for more information on these products and other offerings from the companies.
