Robotic painting system is widely used for modern paint shop construction, painting robot is primary choice for its flexible programming in handling different products paint spraying. But what's actually included for a painting robot system? It's not just a single robot arm but a system with multiple devices. In this article, we provide indepth guides about a painting robot system configuration and how to customize each device in right way. Genearally, a painting robot system is composed by following: robot arm, robot installation platform, turner table, spray booth, paint pump and spray gun. Robot Arm The basic but core device. The choice of robot arm mainly on two points - payload and reach limit. Payload is determined by the type of spray gun we will use, the general capacity of…

Electrostatic dust cleaning is a crucial stage for spray painting system in order to receive high quality surface finishing. Dusts on object is mainly by electrostatic absorption during production or transportation. Dust cleaning unit is to generate ionized air to neutralize static current on object and remove dusts. Following we'll briefly introduce how electrostatic dust cleaning works and the equipment configuration standards. Electrostatic dust cleaning is one of the most popular solutions for cleaning treatment. Static nozzle is connected with power supply (220V or 110V /input voltage 4.6KV), then connected to the ion needle through high-voltage cable, this nozzle will then generate a strong electric field, through the tip of the high-voltage corona discharge of air molecules ionized, ion needle tip to produce a large number of positive and negative…

Spray gun is a precise tool for paint application. But it's not a standard piece, so we need to select a right model for specific paint spraying. After a long history of solvent base paint development, water base paint is leading the industry for it's environment friendly and safety to health advantages. Here we provide basic guidance of water base paint spray gun Water base paint spray gun is mainly offered as low pressure model(inlet air pressure under 1.8Bar) with less air flow and less pressure for high grade paint atomizing. Because of reduced spraying pressure, less paint bounce back is expected for high quality painting control, especially for some conditions such as reparing work. Water base paint spray gun advantages quick view suitable for water base and solvent base…

Electrostatic turbo bell is the best choice for high quality paint spraying. Either for paint thickness control or surface evenness, turbo bell is unbeatable choice comparing to any other spray gun model. How does an electrostatic turbo bell work and how it's outstanding from the industry? In this article we'll briefly introduce from it's turbo structure design to final application and see why it's primary choice for high end application. Electrostatic Turbo Bell Brief View Being a high end choice spray gun tool, electrostatic turbo bell provides a special design for paint atomizing (up to 60,000 rpm bell rotation speed). The atomized paint is unlike traditional liquid flow but fog like tiny particles as a result of the high speed spinning. Thus paint atomizing grade is extremely high comparing to…

Sublimation coating is a widely used technology for heat transfer on decoration items such as ceramic mug. But how to apply this coating properly is a technical tatctic which is not workable by home purpose. Here we mainly talk about the mass operation for industrial production line. What's sublimation coating? Sublimation coating is clear, paint-like coatings that can be applied to virtually any surface, making that surface into a sublimatable substrate. In this process, it allows an image to be transferred to any type of product or surface that has been covered with the coating. Sublimation coatings are applied using aerosol spray, which affords a greater control over the amount applied. Materials as diverse as wood, metal and glass can be coated to allow images to adhere to them and…

Paint shop is widely setup for various products surface coating treatment. But if you pick up any system to compare you would see there're not two complete same setups even for the same product painting. It brings a lot of problems for people when trying to purchase a machine. Especially at the early stage, suppliers always have to ask us a lot of questions in order to receive a quotation, but sometimes we do not even have answers to those questions. Why it's not a standard configuration so we can select directly? Well, this seems weird. But it's truely the condition of this industry. To see why it is, we will briefly bug from the following categories and offer quick guidance how to get start professionally. Workshop Space It's for…

Woodware industry is so close to everybody due to its 100% availability in every home and office. Thus the woodware painting is crucial to meet with various standards. In following, we will briefly introduce the main painting solutions used for different types wooden furnitures such as wood board, wooden doors and chair etc. Roller Coating Widely used technology for wood board coating. It's workable for solvent and water base paint on flat conveyor system. Roller is attached with paint then pressed on board. Conveyor system will take the board to pass through drying tunnel directly to get final coated piece. The painting station is pretty fast thus the drying tunnel is relatively long comparing to other painting system configuration. It's normally setup for mass production demands. As we see, roller…

Paint drying is to transfer wet paint to solid state. Paint or coating drying is a crucial process after precise spraying. If the paint is not properly cured in right condition, the paint layer can not stick to object or even lead to pollution to other components after assembled. In this article we provide general guides how to select a suitable drying device and introduce the current popular curing technologies. As we know, different paints are produced by different chemicals, some are solvent based and some are water based. Thus, the different rate components result in different drying conditions. Some paints can be fast dry in room temperature without any device, but some paints require extremely high temperature in a precise furnace. Generally, paints are categorized in liquid and powder…

Definition of coating Coating is a kind of liquid or powder substance, which can be uniformly covered and attached to object surface to form a continuous and dense coating layer. After dried and cured by natural or thermal condition then a solid coating film will be formed. Coating layer has protection, decoration or other special functions to object. Although the definitions of coating are slightly different in different documents, they all emphasize two characteristics of coating - it contain film-forming properties and has important impact on the substrate. Classification of film-forming substances Generally, the composition of paint is divided into three types: main film-forming substances, secondary film-forming substances, and auxiliary film-forming substances. 1. Main film-forming substances Main film-forming substance refers to the polymer material which is the basic substance in…

Our robotic painting machine is quite flexible configuration to meet with customer various paint spraying requirements. For quick understanding how we can setup the machine, we post the following for new user on how to get started. Firstly we must know what kind product to paint. For example the physical dimensions and its painting requirement(full painting or partial painting on specific area). Once we leant the actual product and it's spraying needs, we can then choose a suitable machine(machine size and available motions etc). Once the machine basic model confirmed, we can then customize machine technical properties as following. Motor - machine motion control is powered by servo motors. By default it's configured by Panasonic production which is very stable since from the very start. But if you have specific…
