These applicators automatically compensate for wear of the bar after every stroke. The amount of compound applied per stroke can be adjusted. Also the feed speed and the return speed of the bar is adjustable. The applicators operate pneumatically. Normally they are used with an automated impulse type timer. When the timer actuates the bar feeder the pneumatic cylinder presses the compound against the buffing wheel. The contact time of bar compound against the buffing wheel can be controlled by the timer. The amount of compound applied can be varied from .1mm to .2mm.
