The Reciprocator is used for
smooth movements of Guns for Application of Liquid Paint or
Powder Coating at Various Speeds & Stroke Length to Suit
Conveyor & Jig Height Respectively.
Principle
The objective is to achieve
uniform spraying of powder or paint on moving objects by precise
& smooth up & down movement of Guns (stroke) at various
speeds.
Construction & Operation
The spraying guns are mounted
on an arm extended from a carriage. It is programmed to move
in required stroke lengths & speeds depending on object
height for up & down movements of guns & conveyor
speed. The carriage is moved up & down on suitable guides
through chain driven by a geared motor. The frame supporting
the carriage & its structure are made sturdy. The counter
weight can be balanced for number of guns used. The wheel
castors are provided at bottom to facilitate the easy movement
of reciprocator whenever required. The movement is controlled
by latest digital ac frequency drive & microprocessor
based controller to achieve desired stroke & speed. The
keypad enables you to punch in user-friendly parameters like
stroke length & speed & status can be viewed on 2-line
backlit LCD display.
Advantages
Easily Adjustable Stroke Length & Speed to Suit Production
Needs.
Position Transducer for Exact Stroke Length & Speed
Calculation.
Online Speed Changing.
Smart Controls (Optional)
These are PLC Based Smart Controls for Paint
line Automation.
Painting to take place only when job is present.
Stoppage of reciprocation after particular number of strokes
(pre-programmed) for each type of job.
To initiate the painting from fixed reference position
only.
Painting to Start & Stop with Reciprocator Operation.
Automatic setting of painting speed
& stroke length with respect to each job type from
database.
Production monitoring.
Data acquisition software.
Profile painting by scanning the job before painting.
Sequential / parallel operation of multiple reciprocators.
External system parameters can also
be controlled such as Degreasing, Dephosphating, Cleaning,
Drying, and Oven Temperature etc.
Operator Interface
2 Line 16 Char. Backlit LCD Display.
User-Friendly Programming.
On-Line Speed Adjustment.
Applications
Painting
:
Used For Painting Of Industrial,
Automobile, Domestic Products & Components of Various
Shapes & Sizes.
Powder Coating
:
Used for Powder Coating of Industrial,
Automobile, Domestic Products & Components of various
Shapes & Sizes.
Granulating
:
Used for Granulating of Pigments
in Chemical & Pharmaceutical Industry. In Granulating
System the Granulator is Reciprocated Above the conveyor
through which the material is transported.
Spray Drying
:
Used for spray drying of various
components by reciprocating hot air guns or air shower
nozzles above the component to be spray dried.
Plasma Spray
:
Used for Plasma Spraying & for
Metalizing on various metal components. The movement
of Plasma Spraying Guns can be precisely controlled
about all the 3 axis.
Mirror Coating
:
Finds tremendous application in automatic
mirror Coating plants for applications such as Prewashing,
Coppering, Silvering, Sensitizing & Painting.
Precision Welding
:
Used for welding of components for
welding of components for precise weld lengths in both
continuous and discrete weld. It is also used for plastic
welding.
Cleaning &
Washing
:
Used for cleaning & washing of
various components where the water is sprayed on the
components through nozzles mounted on reciprocator arms.
Teflon Coating
:
Used in coating of non-stick appliances
where the Teflon is to be sprayed on the areas to be
coated.
