Product information
In the steel manufacturing industry, continuous casting is a process where molten steel is poured into a continuous casting machine to form castings with specific shapes and dimensions. To facilitate subsequent processing and management, it is often necessary to mark these hot castings, known as spraying numbers. The robotic arm number sprayer is an automated device used in this process to complete the marking task.
Working Principle of Robotic Arm Number Sprayer
Positioning: Initially, the robotic arm uses sensors or vision systems to determine the position and orientation of the casting, ensuring that the spray location is accurately identified.
Cooling Treatment (if needed): Given that the casting temperature is very high, it may be necessary to apply some cooling treatment to the surface of the casting to prevent the spray material from rapidly evaporating or failing to adhere due to the high temperature.
Spraying Numbers: After the robotic arm with the nozzle reaches the predetermined position, it sprays special high-temperature resistant paint on the casting according to preset information (such as batch number, date, etc.). This paint can remain stable at high temperatures, is not easy to peel off, and has good visibility.
Cleaning and Maintenance: After completing the spraying, the robotic arm returns to its initial position, and the system cleans the nozzle to avoid residues affecting the next operation.
Advantages
- Increased Efficiency: Automated numbering can significantly reduce the time required for manual operations, thereby improving production efficiency.
- High Precision: Through precise control systems, it ensures that each marking on the casting is clear and accurate.
- Strong Adaptability: It can adjust the spray position based on different shapes and sizes of castings, offering good flexibility.
- Safety: It avoids direct human contact with the high-temperature environment, enhancing workplace safety.
Application Scenarios
Robotic arm number sprayers are widely used in continuous casting production lines in the steel, aluminum, and other metal products industries. They play a crucial role in achieving product traceability and quality control.
In summary, the robotic arm number sprayer is an indispensable part of modern continuous casting production lines. It not only increases the degree of production automation but also strengthens product quality management and safety.
