- the pattern 7 is then applied manually, for example in the form of a decorative strip, which can be applied manually with a brush.
- the pattern 7 in a step S8. between dried.
- the further clearcoat layer 8 is then applied in a step S9 and in one
- a disadvantage of this known method of applying a pattern is first the fact that the additional clearcoat layer 8 is required. Linked to this is the need for a further drying step.
- Layer composite formed, comprising a support and a cured lacquer layer.
- the layer composite is pressed onto the basecoat layer with the side of the hardened lacquer layer, after which the support can then be removed.
- the application of the pattern does not take place in the context of a Lackiervons and therefore much more complex.
- the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a correspondingly improved painting process and a corresponding paint shop.
- the invention comprises the general technical teaching of applying the pattern (eg ornamental strip) to the basecoat layer without an intermediate clearcoat so that an additional clearcoat layer above the pattern can be dispensed with.

- the term of a pattern in the context of the invention also includes graphics, images and the like.
- Another example of a pattern is the painting of a partial surface (eg a roof rail of a motor vehicle bodywork) which is to be painted in a different color than the other motor vehicle bodywork.
- the term of a pattern thus generally includes any partial surfaces of a component surface which are to be coated with another coating agent (for example in a different color) than the rest of the component surface.
- pattern used in the context of the invention preferably means that the pattern covers only a partial area of the component surface, ie not the entire component surface.
- the concept of a pattern preferably implies that the pattern is not continuous, but covers the component surface only with the respective pattern details (eg lines).
- the pattern is applied directly to the basecoat layer. This means that neither a clearcoat layer is disposed between the basecoat film on the one hand and the pattern on the other hand, nor any other layer of a different material.
- the basecoat film is only flashed off prior to application of the pattern and also the pattern (e.g., trim) is only flashed off prior to application of the clearcoat.
- the basecoat film is intermediately dried prior to the application of the pattern, whereas the pattern is only flashed off before the application of the clearcoat.
- Yet another variant of the invention provides for the basecoat layer to be flashed off before the application of the pattern, whereas the pattern is intermediately dried before the application of the clearcoat material.
- the base coat layer is dried in between before the application of the pattern, as well as the pattern is between dried before the application of the clearcoat.
- the basecoat film and the pattern are applied wet-on-wet without intermediate drying or venting. This means that the pattern is already applied at a time when the underlying basecoat layer has not yet completely dried, so that the wet paint of the pattern is applied to the still wet paint of the basecoat. Sislack Anlagen meets, which is why one speaks of "wet-in-wet" - paint.
- the basecoat film, the pattern (for example a trim strip) and the clearcoat film to be applied wet-on-wet in a so-called 3-wet process without intermediate drying or flash-off.
- the liquid paint of the pattern is applied at a time when the underlying basecoat layer is not yet completely dried.
- the liquid clearcoat is applied at a time when the underneath paint of the pattern is not yet completely dried.
- the three paints (base coat, paint of the pattern and clear coat) of the three superimposed paint layers so at least temporarily together still in a liquid state.
- the base coat layer and the pattern are applied together in a paint booth, particularly in the aforementioned wet-on-wet process without intermediate drying or venting.
- the pattern (e.g., trim) and the clear coat are applied together in a paint booth, especially in the wet-on-wet process mentioned above, without intermediate drying or flash off.
- the basecoat film, the pattern and the clearcoat film are applied together in a paint booth, in particular the aforementioned 3-wet process without interim drying or venting.
- the basecoat film, the pattern and / or the clearcoat film may be applied in a plurality of paint booths arranged one behind the other along a paint line.
- the basecoat film, the pattern and / or the clearcoat film are each automatically applied by means of a multi-axis, freely programmable paint robot.
- Such painting robots are known per se from the prior art and therefore need not be described in detail.
- the pattern is preferably applied by an application device which dispenses no coating agent mist, but a narrowly defined coating agent jet.
- application devices are known for example from DE 10 2010 019 612 AI, so that the content of this document of the present description is fully attributable.
- the basecoat film and the clearcoat film are preferably applied by a conventional atomizer, such as a rotary atomizer.
- the basecoat film, the pattern and the clearcoat film preferably consist of wet paint.
- egg NEN powder coating for the basecoat film, the pattern and / or the clearcoat film instead of wet paint.

BESCHREIBUNG Lackierverfahren und Lackieranlage für Zierstreifen DESCRIPTION Painting process and painting system for decorative strips
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Lackierverfahren zum Lackieren eines Bauteils, insbesondere eines Kraftfahrzeugkarosseriebau- teils. Weiterhin umfasst die Erfindung eine entsprechende La- ckieranlage und eine damit erzeugte Lackschicht auf einemThe invention relates to a painting process for painting a component, in particular a Kraftfahrzeugkosseriebau- part. Furthermore, the invention comprises a corresponding lacquering plant and a lacquer layer produced therewith on one side
Bauteil, insbesondere auf einem Kraftfahrzeugkarosseriebau- teil. Component, in particular on a Kraftfahrzeugkarosseriebau- part.
Bei der Lackierung von Kraftfahrzeugkarosseriebauteilen wer- den üblicherweise mehrere Lackschichten aufgebracht, nämlich unter anderem eine Schicht aus einem Kathodentauchlack (KTL) , eine Füllerschicht, eine Basislackschicht und ganz außen eine Klarlackschicht. Weiterhin ist es aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt, Zierlinien, Designstreifen, Muster oder Grafiken auf das Bauteil aufzubringen. Beispielsweise werden Zierstreifen mittels eines Pinsels auf die Klarlackschicht aufgebracht. Nach dem Trocknen des manuell aufgebrachten Zierstreifens wird dann eine weitere Klarlackschicht aufgebracht und eingebrannt . In the coating of motor vehicle body components, usually several layers of paint are applied, namely, inter alia, a layer of a cathodic dip paint (KTL), a surfacer coat, a basecoat film and, quite generally, a clearcoat film. Furthermore, it is known from the prior art to apply decorative lines, design strips, patterns or graphics on the component. For example, decorative strips are applied to the clearcoat layer by means of a brush. After drying the manually applied decorative strip, a further clearcoat layer is then applied and baked.
Figur 1 zeigt exemplarisch den mehrschichtigen Aufbau eines solchen herkömmlichen Lacks auf einem Kraftfahrzeugkarosseriebauteil 1. So besteht der Lack aus einer Phospatschicht 2, einer Grundierung 3 aus einem Kathodentauchlack (KTL) , einem Füller 4, einer Basislackschicht 5, einer Klarlackschicht 6, einem Muster 7 (z.B. Zierstreifen) und einer auf das Muster 7 aufgebrachten weiteren Klarlackschicht 8. Figur 2 zeigt entsprechend in Form eines Flussdiagramms das Lackierverfahren zum Lackieren des Lacks aus Figur 1. Das Flussdiagramm beginnt hierbei in einem Schritt Sl mit dem Auftragen der Grundierung 3 aus einem Kathodentauchlack, je- doch kann in einem vorgelagerten Verfahrensschritt noch die Phosphatschicht 2 aufgetragen werden, was hier nicht dargestellt ist. In einem Schritt S2 wird dann die Füllerschicht 4 aufgetragen. Daraufhin wird dann in einem Schritt S3 die Basislackschicht 5 aufgetragen und in einem Schritt S4 wird der Basislack getrocknet. Nach dem Trocknen des Basislacks wird dann die Klarlackschicht 6 in einem Schritt S5 aufgetragen. Anschließend wird die Klarlackschicht dann in einem Schritt S6 eingebrannt. Daraufhin wird dann in einem Schritt S7 manuell das Muster 7 aufgetragen, beispielsweise in Form eines Zierstreifens, der manuell mit einem Pinsel appliziert werden kann. Daraufhin wird das Muster 7 in einem Schritt S8. zwischengetrocknet. Schließlich wird dann in einem Schritt S9 die weitere Klarlackschicht 8 aufgetragen und in einem FIG. 1 shows, by way of example, the multilayer structure of such a conventional paint on a motor vehicle body component 1. The paint thus consists of a phosphate layer 2, a primer 3 made of a cathodic dip paint (KTL), a filler 4, a basecoat film 5, a clearcoat film 6, a pattern 7 (Eg, decorative strips) and a further applied to the pattern 7 further clearcoat layer. 8 FIG. 2 shows correspondingly in the form of a flow chart the painting process for painting the paint from FIG. 1. In this case, the flow diagram begins in step S 1 with the application of the primer 3 from a cathode dip coating, but the phosphate coating 2 can still be applied in an upstream process step , which is not shown here. In a step S2, the filler layer 4 is then applied. Then, in a step S3, the basecoat film 5 is applied and in a step S4, the basecoat is dried. After the basecoat has been dried, the clearcoat film 6 is then applied in a step S5. Subsequently, the clearcoat film is then baked in a step S6. Then, in a step S7, the pattern 7 is then applied manually, for example in the form of a decorative strip, which can be applied manually with a brush. Thereafter, the pattern 7 in a step S8. between dried. Finally, the further clearcoat layer 8 is then applied in a step S9 and in one
Schritt S10 eingebrannt. Branded S10.
Nachteilig an diesem bekannten Verfahren zum Aufbringen eines Musters (z.B. Zierstreifen) ist zunächst die Tatsache, dass die zusätzliche Klarlackschicht 8 erforderlich ist. Damit verbunden ist auch die Notwendigkeit eines weiteren Trock- nungsschrittes . A disadvantage of this known method of applying a pattern (for example trim strips) is first the fact that the additional clearcoat layer 8 is required. Linked to this is the need for a further drying step.
Ein weiterer Nachteil des vorstehend beschriebenen bekannten Lackierverfahrens besteht darin, dass das Muster 7 manuell aufgebracht wird. Hierbei ist in der Regel auch Abdeckmateri- al (z.B. Folien, Klebebänder) erforderlich, um die Bauteiloberfläche entsprechend dem gewünschten Muster 7 zu maskieren, wobei die Bereitstellung und Entsorgung des Abdeckmaterials mit Zusatzkosten verbunden ist. Ferner führt das manuelle Aufbringen des Musters 7 auch zu relativ vielen Fehlern. Aus DE 10 2010 014 381 AI ist ein Lackierverfahren bekannt, bei dem ein Muster direkt auf die Basislackschicht aufgebracht wird, d.h. ohne eine dazwischen liegende Klarlack- schicht. Allerdings wird das Muster hierbei aus einem Another disadvantage of the known coating method described above is that the pattern 7 is applied manually. Covering materials (eg foils, adhesive tapes) are generally required in order to mask the component surface in accordance with the desired pattern 7, the provision and disposal of the covering material being associated with additional costs. Furthermore, the manual application of the pattern 7 also leads to relatively many errors. DE 10 2010 014 381 A1 discloses a coating method in which a pattern is applied directly to the basecoat film, ie without an intermediate clearcoat film. However, the pattern hereby becomes one
Schichtverbund gebildet, der einen Träger und eine ausgehärtete Lackschicht umfasst. Der Schichtverbund wird hierbei mit der Seite der ausgehärteten Lackschicht auf die Basislackschicht aufgedrückt, woraufhin dann der Träger abgezogen wer- den kann. Das Aufbringen des Musters erfolgt hierbei also nicht im Rahmen eines Lackierverfahrens und ist deshalb wesentlich aufwändiger. Layer composite formed, comprising a support and a cured lacquer layer. In this case, the layer composite is pressed onto the basecoat layer with the side of the hardened lacquer layer, after which the support can then be removed. The application of the pattern does not take place in the context of a Lackierverfahrens and therefore much more complex.
Weiterhin ist zum Stand der Technik hinzuweisen auf US Furthermore, reference is made to the prior art US
2004/0028823 AI. Hierbei wird jedoch kein Muster im Sinne der Erfindung aufgetragen. 2004/0028823 AI. In this case, however, no pattern is applied in the sense of the invention.
Ferner umfasst der Stand der Technik noch WO 2007/131660 AI, die Firmendruckschrift „Dürr News Juni 2006 Ausgabe" und DE 10 2010 019 612 AI. Furthermore, the prior art still includes WO 2007/131660 AI, the company publication "Dürr News June 2006 edition" and DE 10 2010 019 612 AI.
Der Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein entsprechend verbessertes Lackierverfahren und eine entsprechende Lackieranlage zu schaffen. The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a correspondingly improved painting process and a corresponding paint shop.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein erfindungsgemäßes Lackierverfahren bzw. durch eine erfindungsgemäße Lackieranlage gemäß den nebengeordneten Ansprüchen gelöst. Die Erfindung umfasst die allgemeine technische Lehre, das Muster (z.B. Zierstreifen) ohne eine dazwischen liegende Klarlackschicht auf die Basislackschicht aufzubringen, so dass auf eine zusätzliche Klarlackschicht über dem Muster verzichtet werden kann. Im Rahmen des erfindungsgemäßen La- ckierverfahrens wird also vorzugsweise nur eine einzige Klar¬ lackschicht aufgetragen, die nicht nur die Basislackschicht abdeckt, sondern auch das Muster. Die im Rahmen der Erfindung verwendete Formulierung des Auftragens des Musters bezieht sich vorzugsweise auf Lackierverfahren, wie beispielsweise Sprühverfahren oder Druckverfahren. Das Muster wird also vorzugsweise durch einen Zerstäuber (z.B. Rotationszerstäuber) aufgetragen. Dadurch unterscheidet sich die Erfindung von der eingangs zitierten Druckschrift DE 10 2010 014 381 AI, bei der ein Schichtverbund (Träger + ausgehärtete Lackschicht) aufgedrückt wird. This object is achieved by an inventive coating method or by a painting according to the invention according to the independent claims. The invention comprises the general technical teaching of applying the pattern (eg ornamental strip) to the basecoat layer without an intermediate clearcoat so that an additional clearcoat layer above the pattern can be dispensed with. Within the scope of the invention ckierverfahrens is thus preferably applied only a single clear ¬ paint layer, which not only covers the base coat layer, but also the pattern. The formulation patterning used in the invention preferably refers to painting processes such as spraying or printing processes. The pattern is thus preferably applied by an atomizer (eg rotary atomizer). Thus, the invention differs from the cited document DE 10 2010 014 381 AI, in which a layer composite (carrier + cured lacquer layer) is pressed.
Der im Rahmen der Erfindung verwendete Begriff eines Musters ist nicht auf die vorstehend erwähnten Zier-, Design- oderThe term pattern used in the context of the invention is not intended to refer to the above-mentioned ornamental, design or
Dekorstreifen beschränkt. Vielmehr umfasst der Begriff eines Musters im Rahmen der Erfindung auch Grafiken, Bilder und Ähnliches. Ein weiteres Beispiel eines Musters ist die Lackierung einer Teilfläche (z.B. eines Dachholms einer Kraft- fahrzeugkarosserie) , die in einer anderen Farbe lackiert werden soll als die sonstige Kraftfahrzeugkarosserie. Allgemein umfasst der Begriff eines Musters also im Rahmen der Erfindung jegliche Teilflächen einer Bauteiloberfläche, die mit einem anderen Beschichtungsmittel (z.B. in einer anderen Far- be) beschichtet werden sollen als der Rest der Bauteiloberfläche. Der im Rahmen der Erfindung verwendete Begriff eines Musters bedeutet vorzugsweise, dass das Muster nur eine Teilfläche der Bauteiloberfläche abdeckt, d.h. nicht die gesamte Bauteiloberfläche. Weiterhin impliziert der Begriff eines Musters vorzugsweise, dass das Muster nicht flächig durchgehend ist, sondern die Bauteiloberfläche lediglich bei den jeweiligen Musterdetails (z.B. Linien) abdeckt. In einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird das Muster direkt auf die Basislackschicht aufgebracht. Dies bedeutet, dass zwischen der Basislackschicht einerseits und dem Muster andererseits weder eine Klarlackschicht angeordnet ist, noch eine sonstige Schicht aus einem anderen Material. Restricted decorative stripes. Rather, the term of a pattern in the context of the invention also includes graphics, images and the like. Another example of a pattern is the painting of a partial surface (eg a roof rail of a motor vehicle bodywork) which is to be painted in a different color than the other motor vehicle bodywork. In the context of the invention, the term of a pattern thus generally includes any partial surfaces of a component surface which are to be coated with another coating agent (for example in a different color) than the rest of the component surface. The term pattern used in the context of the invention preferably means that the pattern covers only a partial area of the component surface, ie not the entire component surface. Furthermore, the concept of a pattern preferably implies that the pattern is not continuous, but covers the component surface only with the respective pattern details (eg lines). In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the pattern is applied directly to the basecoat layer. This means that neither a clearcoat layer is disposed between the basecoat film on the one hand and the pattern on the other hand, nor any other layer of a different material.
In einer Variante der Erfindung wird die Basislackschicht vor dem Aufbringen des Musters nur abgelüftet und auch das Muster (z.B. Zierstreifen) wird vor dem Aufbringen des Klarlacks nur abgelüftet. In one variant of the invention, the basecoat film is only flashed off prior to application of the pattern and also the pattern (e.g., trim) is only flashed off prior to application of the clearcoat.
In einer anderen Variante der Erfindung wird die Basislackschicht dagegen vor dem Aufbringen des Musters zwischengetrocknet, wohingegen das Muster vor dem Aufbringen des Klar- lacks nur abgelüftet wird. In another variant of the invention, by contrast, the basecoat film is intermediately dried prior to the application of the pattern, whereas the pattern is only flashed off before the application of the clearcoat.
Eine wiederum andere Variante der Erfindung sieht dagegen vor, dass die Basislackschicht vor dem Aufbringen des Musters abgelüftet wird, wohingegen das Muster vor dem Aufbringen des Klarlacks zwischengetrocknet wird. Yet another variant of the invention, on the other hand, provides for the basecoat layer to be flashed off before the application of the pattern, whereas the pattern is intermediately dried before the application of the clearcoat material.
Ferner besteht auch die Möglichkeit, dass die Basislackschicht vor dem Aufbringen des Musters zwischengetrocknet wird, wie auch das Muster vor dem Aufbringen des Klarlacks zwischengetrocknet wird. Furthermore, there is also the possibility that the base coat layer is dried in between before the application of the pattern, as well as the pattern is between dried before the application of the clearcoat.
In noch einer anderen Variante der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die Basislackschicht und das Muster nass-in-nass aufgetragen werden ohne ein zwischenzeitliches Trocknen oder Ab- lüften. Dies bedeutet, dass das Muster bereits zu einem Zeitpunkt aufgetragen wird, zu dem die darunter liegende Basislackschicht noch nicht vollständig getrocknet ist, so dass der nasse Lack des Musters auf den noch nassen Lack der Ba- sislackschicht trifft, weswegen man auch von "nass-in-nass "- Lackierung spricht . In yet another variant of the invention, it is provided that the basecoat film and the pattern are applied wet-on-wet without intermediate drying or venting. This means that the pattern is already applied at a time when the underlying basecoat layer has not yet completely dried, so that the wet paint of the pattern is applied to the still wet paint of the basecoat. Sislackschicht meets, which is why one speaks of "wet-in-wet" - paint.
Weiterhin besteht im Rahmen der Erfindung die Möglichkeit, dass die Basislackschicht, das Muster (z.B. ein Zierstreifen) und die Klarlackschicht in einem sogenannten 3-wet-Prozess nass-in-nass aufgetragen werden ohne ein zwischenzeitliches Trocknen oder Ablüften. Dies bedeutet, dass der flüssige Lack des Musters zu einem Zeitpunkt aufgetragen wird, zu dem die darunter befindliche Basislackschicht noch nicht vollständig getrocknet ist. Weiterhin bedeutet dies, dass der flüssige Klarlack zu einem Zeitpunkt aufgetragen wird, zu dem der darunter befindliche Lack des Musters noch nicht vollständig getrocknet ist. Bei einem 3-wet-Prozess sind die drei Lacke (Basislack, Lack des Musters und Klarlack) der drei übereinander liegenden Lackschichten also zumindest kurzzeitig noch gemeinsam in einem flüssigen Zustand. Furthermore, within the scope of the invention it is possible for the basecoat film, the pattern (for example a trim strip) and the clearcoat film to be applied wet-on-wet in a so-called 3-wet process without intermediate drying or flash-off. This means that the liquid paint of the pattern is applied at a time when the underlying basecoat layer is not yet completely dried. Furthermore, this means that the liquid clearcoat is applied at a time when the underneath paint of the pattern is not yet completely dried. In a 3-wet process, the three paints (base coat, paint of the pattern and clear coat) of the three superimposed paint layers so at least temporarily together still in a liquid state.
In einem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung werden die Basislackschicht und das Muster (z.B. Zierstreifen) gemeinsam in einer Lackierkabine aufgetragen, insbesondere in dem vorstehend erwähnten Nass-in-nass-Prozess ohne ein zwischenzeitliches Trocknen oder Ablüften. In one embodiment of the invention, the base coat layer and the pattern (e.g., trim strips) are applied together in a paint booth, particularly in the aforementioned wet-on-wet process without intermediate drying or venting.
In einem anderen Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung werden dagegen das Muster (z.B. Zierstreifen) und die Klarlackschicht gemeinsam in einer Lackierkabine aufgetragen, insbesondere in dem vorstehend erwähnten Nass-in-nass-Prozess, ohne zwischenzeitliches Trocknen oder Ablüften. In another embodiment of the invention, on the other hand, the pattern (e.g., trim) and the clear coat are applied together in a paint booth, especially in the wet-on-wet process mentioned above, without intermediate drying or flash off.
In noch einem anderen Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wer- den die Basislackschicht, das Muster und die Klarlackschicht gemeinsam in einer Lackierkabine aufgetragen, insbesondere in dem vorstehend erwähnten 3-wet-Prozess ohne ein zwischenzeitliches Trocknen oder Ablüften. In yet another embodiment of the invention, the basecoat film, the pattern and the clearcoat film are applied together in a paint booth, in particular the aforementioned 3-wet process without interim drying or venting.
Es besteht jedoch auch die Möglichkeit, dass die Basislack- Schicht, das Muster und/oder die Klarlackschicht in mehreren Lackierkabinen aufgetragen werden, die entlang einer Lackierstraße hintereinander angeordnet sind. However, it is also possible for the basecoat film, the pattern and / or the clearcoat film to be applied in a plurality of paint booths arranged one behind the other along a paint line.
In einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung werden die Basislackschicht, das Muster und/oder die Klarlackschicht jeweils mittels eines mehrachsigen, frei programmierbaren Lackierroboters automatisch aufgetragen. Derartige Lackierroboter sind an sich aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt und müssen deshalb nicht näher beschrieben werden. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the basecoat film, the pattern and / or the clearcoat film are each automatically applied by means of a multi-axis, freely programmable paint robot. Such painting robots are known per se from the prior art and therefore need not be described in detail.
Das Muster wird hierbei vorzugsweise von einem Applikationsgerät aufgetragen, das keinen Beschichtungsmittelnebel abgibt, sondern einen eng begrenzten Beschichtungsmittelstrahl. Derartige Applikationsgeräte sind beispielsweise aus DE 10 2010 019 612 AI bekannt, so dass der Inhalt dieser Druckschrift der vorliegenden Beschreibung in vollem Umfang zuzurechnen ist. In this case, the pattern is preferably applied by an application device which dispenses no coating agent mist, but a narrowly defined coating agent jet. Such application devices are known for example from DE 10 2010 019 612 AI, so that the content of this document of the present description is fully attributable.
Die Basislackschicht und die Klarlackschicht werden dagegen vorzugsweise von einem herkömmlichen Zerstäuber aufgetragen, wie beispielsweise einem Rotationszerstäuber. On the other hand, the basecoat film and the clearcoat film are preferably applied by a conventional atomizer, such as a rotary atomizer.
Es wurde bereits vorstehend erwähnt, dass die Basislackschicht, das Muster und die Klarlackschicht vorzugsweise aus Nasslack bestehen. Es besteht jedoch im Rahmen der Erfindung grundsätzlich auch die Möglichkeit, anstelle von Nasslack ei nen Pulverlack für die Basislackschicht, das Muster und/oder die Klarlackschicht einzusetzen. Weiterhin ist zu erwähnen, dass die Erfindung nicht nur It has already been mentioned above that the basecoat film, the pattern and the clearcoat film preferably consist of wet paint. However, it is within the scope of the invention in principle also possible to use egg NEN powder coating for the basecoat film, the pattern and / or the clearcoat film instead of wet paint. It should also be mentioned that the invention not only
Schutz beansprucht für das vorstehend beschriebene erfindungsgemäße Lackierverfahren. Vielmehr beansprucht die Erfindung auch Schutz für eine entsprechend aufgebaute Lack- schicht, insbesondere auf einem Bauteil, wie beispielsweise einem Kraftfahrzeugkarosseriebauteil . Protection claimed for the above-described coating process according to the invention. Rather, the invention also claims protection for a suitably structured paint layer, in particular on a component, such as a motor vehicle body component.
Schließlich beansprucht die Erfindung auch Schutz für eine entsprechend aufgebaute Lackieranlage, die das Muster ohne eine dazwischen liegende Klarlackschicht auf die Basislackschicht aufbringt. Finally, the invention also claims protection for a correspondingly constructed painting installation, which applies the pattern to the basecoat layer without an intermediate clearcoat.
Weitere Einzelheiten einer erfindungsgemäßen Lackieranlage ergeben sich bereits aus der vorstehenden Beschreibung, so dass auf eine detaillierte Beschreibung des Aufbaus und der Funktionsweise der Lackieranlage an dieser Stelle verzichtet werden kann. Further details of a painting according to the invention will become apparent from the foregoing description, so that it can be dispensed with a detailed description of the structure and operation of the paint shop at this point.
