Precise Trigger System
A microswitch-based trigger senses the smallest finger movement — starting and stopping powder exactly when you want, for a stable, fatigue-free application feel.
Application
Manual Powder Coating Gun
Handheld Control. On Every Part.
The Manual Powder Coating Gun puts electrostatic powder coating directly in the operator's hand. Using corona charging (with an optional tribo mode) to charge the powder, it delivers precise coverage for touch-up work, small batches and complex or one-off parts. An ergonomic body and quick recipe adjustment let the operator tune voltage, current and powder flow to part geometry on the fly; it pairs with Elite, Elite Plus and Smart control units and powder delivery to form a coordinated line.
Overview
For Every Job That Needs Flexibility.
The manual gun steps in where an automatic line cannot reach: sample and prototype coating, recessed or complex geometries, low-volume production and touch-up after automatic application. The operator directs powder straight at the target and relies on electrostatic corona charging to make it cling to the part.
For demanding Faraday-cage areas or fine finishes, a tribo charging option is available. The gun works alongside STRONG3000 control units and powder delivery to keep application consistent and repeatable.

Head Group in One Turn
The head group releases with a single turn. The electrode group and nozzle come off tool-free — cleaning, maintenance and color change take seconds.
Clip-On Hose Holder
The hose holder is fixed with a clip; turn it and it comes off and back on easily. A practical yet solid connection for everyday use.
Rear Control Buttons
Rear buttons switch between modes; the kV (kilovolt) value is adjusted instantly with + and − buttons. Fast, precise optimisation per part.
Key Benefits
Precision in Hand.
530 gThe world’s lightest gunErgonomic Body
Balanced handheld use that stays comfortable over long shifts.
Instant Communication & Adjustment
The gun communicates with its control unit in real time; kV, µA and powder settings apply instantly from the touchscreen.
System Compatible
Pairs with Elite, Elite Plus and Smart control units and the powder feed system.
Original Technology
Cast Cascade Technology.
The cascade is the heart of the gun that converts low voltage into high electrostatic voltage. Its durability directly determines the gun's lifetime and coating quality.
Conventional Cascade
Add-On Cartridge Type
A cartridge-type cascade added onto the body from outside is exposed to moisture and dust at its connection points, and is easily damaged or fails on impact and drops.
STRONG3000
Cast in One Piece with the Body
Our cascade is cast as a single piece together with the gun body and fully encapsulated with a special vacuum technique. Ultra-durable against moisture, dust and drops.

Corona System
How Does Corona Charging Work?
From low voltage to surface adhesion — the six steps of electrostatic powder coating.
1
Low Voltage
The gun is supplied with a low, safe DC voltage from the control unit.
2
Coil
The coil converts this low voltage into a high-frequency oscillation, preparing it for amplification.
3
High-Voltage Cascade
The cast cascade boosts the voltage to around 100 kV — the source of the gun's charging power.
4
Electrode and Ionization
The strong electric field at the electrode tip ionizes the surrounding air (corona discharge).
5
Charging the Powder
The ions formed charge the powder particles leaving the gun negatively.
6
Adhesion to the Surface
The charged powder is drawn to the grounded part by electrostatic force and adheres to the surface.
