In recent years, the sanitary ware industry to speed up the transformation efficiency, industry automation, half automation, mechanization production is more and more big, the robot has been gradually introduced into wei yu the traditional manufacturing industry. However, due to the high fees, sanitary ware enterprises in China in general is not high degree of automation, domestic sanitary ware enterprises has fully automated production equipment production line is very little, semi-automatic production line, artificial operation, the majority, in quite a number of production line, most of the work is still done by human.
As for sanitary ware industry, automation (mechanical) production mainly in the following aspects: material and material, mixer, ball mill, feeding machine to replace human labor; On the molding, by using the high pressure molding mould instead of the traditional gypsum mould, pipe pump pressure grouting to replace artificial grouting, on the glazing, with mechanical arm, glaze spraying cabinet, glazing tank, circulating glazing line equipment instead of the pure manual glazing process; On postpartum grinding, detection, stick a card, with mechanical grinding wheels, vacuum technology and loop line card instead of manual operation.
Some powerful domestic sanitary ware enterprises, have been trying to put on around in the production workshop “robot revolution”, started the “machine generation” dream trip. Can you imagine, when a big Bob robot hits, what that means for the production of sanitary ware enterprise? Picture is truth!
Traditional grouting with high pressure grouting
Specializing in the production of high pressure grouting molding equipment Germany DORST head was introduced: the use of high pressure grouting equipment, a company’s profits can be increased by 10%, the quality of the product will also corresponding improvement. Using the high pressure grouting, the enterprise can work 24 hours a day, because the mold does not need to be dry, can continue to production. And the use of gypsum grinding tool, the enterprise needs at least abrasive cleaning 2 times a day, but the use of high pressure grouting equipment, enterprises can realize the production of 24 hours.
In addition, gypsum grinding tool life is generally 100 production cycle, but in China the plaster mould using 70-80, while the high pressure grouting of the abrasive can produce 25000 to 30000. In addition, only in the context of forming time, usually of gypsum molding 30 sets of a batch of products need eight hours, and high pressure grouting time needed for forming a batch of products is about 15 to 20 minutes, the big difference in cans be imagined.
It is reported that a set of three glaze spraying robot production line, a day to complete a maximum of 1000 greenware spray glaze, and the artificial spray glaze ark of a group of two workers a day at most, only can spray 80 products. In addition, the use of glaze spraying robots instead of human, the glaze thickness uniformity, high qualified rate of products, can largely avoid artificial error caused by quality problems. Many ceramic sanitary ware enterprises such as spray glaze process of scrap rate in 3% – 6%, using glaze spraying robot can do zero rejection rate, save the amount of glaze is about 10%, that alone can save a lot of money in a year.
The robot of artificial polishing and polishing
Using robots to full automatic sand, polishing technology, alternative plumbing sanitary ware traditional sand, polishing, special type of work can be greatly reduced the amount of labor and the labor intensity of workers, effectively prevent inductrial injury risk. And robot polishing machine has the function of automatic position compensation, in the process of grinding, can automatically detect the abrasion of polishing wheel, automatically adjust the position of the polishing wheel and the position error compensation of polishing wheel wear.
A “tireless, wouldn’t quit, mood stable” robot “good employees, will not have to worry about the production factors impact is too large. Robots don’t quit, no emotion, more can meet the requirements of enterprise for production stability. Robots in production operation, workers are more simple, do manual work every day, no longer button operation, the robot can automatic production, even staff turnover is no specialized training a group of people to adapt to the production process.
Predictably, over the next five to 10 years, automation and mechanization will have a more rapid development, but for now, still have large development limitations, but many enterprises have the consciousness and the idea, is in a stage of watching and waiting time.
