1. Overview of equipment

The fully automatic robotic arm multi-slot ultrasonic cleaning machine is a high-end industrial cleaning equipment that integrates industrial robot technology, multi-slot segmented cleaning technology and ultrasonic precision cleaning technology. Through a set of precise robotic arm systems, it automatically completes the transfer, positioning and cleaning operations of workpieces between multiple cleaning tanks, and realizes the automation of the whole process from coarse washing, fine washing, rinsing to drying, greatly improving the cleaning efficiency, consistency and reliability, and reducing manual intervention. It is the principle of modern precision industrial cleaning. Think of a solution.

2. Core working principle

The work of the equipment is based on the principle of "process dispersion and process concentration", and the whole cleaning process is decomposed into multiple independent physical or chemical processing steps and completed in different tanks.

1. Loading: The operator places the workpiece to be cleaned in a special cleaning basket or tooling fixture and fixes it in the loading area.

2. Robotic arm grab: The six-axis/four-axis industrial robot (robotic arm) with preset program moves accurately to the upper material position and grabs the cleaning basket through the customized gripper (manipulator).

3. Multi-slot automatic cleaning: The robotic arm immerses the cleaning basket into different troughs in turn according to the preset program, and performs specific actions (such as swinging and rotation) to ensure that there are no dead corners in the cleaning.

· Slot 1: Ultrasonic coarse cleaning tank: the main purpose is to remove a large amount of grease, heavy oil and particles on the surface of the workpiece. Strong ultrasonic power and alkaline or emulsified cleaning agents are usually used.

· Slot 2: Ultrasonic cleaning tank: further remove residual slight oil stains and impurities, and carry out deep cleaning. Use a cleaner with higher purity or different detergents.

· Slot position 3~n: Rinsing tank (optional 1-3): Use pure water or deionized water to rinse the workpiece and thoroughly remove the residual cleaning agent on the surface of the workpiece. Multi-stage overflow rinsing can ensure the cleanliness of the rinsing water.

· Tank position n+1: dehydration/slow-pull drying tank (optional): use hot water to rinse or use the principle of surface tension to remove most of the water.

· Slot n+2: Hot air drying tank: Through built-in heaters, high-efficiency fans and HEPA filters, clean hot air is generated to dry all residual moisture on the surface of the workpiece and achieve complete drying.

4. Umming: The robotic arm transports the cleaned and dried workpiece basket to the unloading area, and the operator removes it to complete the whole cleaning cycle.

3. Core components and structures

Component name, function and description

1. The robotic arm system usually adopts six-axis industrial robots, which are highly flexible and can perform complex three-dimensional movements. Customized gantry or four-axis servo manipulators can also be used according to demand. Responsible for the precise transfer of workpieces between all tanks and workstations.

2. The cleaning tank is usually made of high-quality SUS304 or SUS316 stainless steel, which is corrosion-resistant. Each tank is independently heated, temperature-controlled, and equipped with an overflow device. The number of tanks can be customized according to the process (commonly 3-6 grooves).

3. Ultrasonic system A piezoelectric ceramic ultrasonic transducer is installed at the bottom or side of each cleaning tank, which is driven by an independent ultrasonic generator. The frequency can be selected (commonly 25KHz, 28KHz, 40KHz), and the power can be adjusted to adapt to different workpieces.

4. Filtration system Rough washing and fine washing tanks are usually equipped with a circulating filtration system (pump + filter), which can continuously filter the suspended pollutants in the cleaning solution and extend the service life of the cleaning solution.

5. Drying system The hot air drying tank has a built-in high-efficiency electric heating tube, centrifugal fan and air filter to ensure that clean hot air is blown out and avoid secondary pollution.

6. Automatic cover plate Each tank is equipped with a pneumatic or electric automatic opening/closing cover plate to reduce the evaporation of cleaning liquid, maintain the workshop environment, and play the role of sound insulation and noise reduction during ultrasonic work.

7. Control system Core brain. PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) + Color Touch Screen (HMI) is usually used. Users can easily set and store a variety of cleaning programs (robot arm path, working time of each slot, temperature, ultrasonic power, etc.).

8. The safety system includes emergency stop button, grating safety protection, leakage protection, overheating protection, liquid level sensor, etc., to ensure the safety of man-machine and equipment.
