DESCRIZIONE
The invention relates to a device for electrostatically applying additive particles, such as garnishing leaves or dusting products, to a product (104) suitable for human consumption, in particular a meat product, such as slaughtered poultry or parts thereof. The device comprises at least one charging electrode (101), additive supply means (102) for supplying additive particles to the charging electrode, and means (105) for generating an electric field between the electrode and the product, which has a charge which is different from that of the electrode. The invention is characterized in that at least one charging electrode is designed as a supporting surface for the additive particles, and in that the additive supply means are designed for depositing the additive particles on the charging electrode, and in that the means for generating the electric field create a field such that the additive particles leave the supporting surface and jump onto the product, which is at a distance from the electrode.
