First, a paint deposition pattern model of ellipse dual\u2010<jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic>distribution is fitted on the basic of experimental data from robotic air spray painting. Second, a spray gun model is proposed using the curvature circle method for air spray painting on free\u2010form surface. The theoretical result is coincident with the film thickness in verification experiment spraying a cylinder surface. The biggest error of the sample points between the theoretical and experimental results is less than 4\u2009<jats:italic>\u03bc<\/jats:italic>m, thereby the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed model is validated.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>The paper provides a specific theoretical and methodological support for the realization of process planning and simulation system in surface spray manufacturing.
