Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of plastic part surface treatment, and in particular to a plastic part surface imitation metal wire drawing process. Background Art
[0002] Products with brushed surfaces have excellent texture and are very popular among consumers. The current brushing process is generally carried out on metal substrates. The processing cycle from blanks to finished products is long, and it also requires a lot of manpower and material costs for material turnover, and the production cost is high. There are also products with similar brushing treatments on plastic parts, but generally the glue liquid is melted and the glue wire is coated on the plastic part according to the set texture, and then it is cooled and formed and then polished and shaped. However, the glue wire is easily affected by various subjective and objective factors during production, and it is easy to have problems such as turbidity of the glue wire and difficulty in integrating with the plastic part, and the texture is relatively poor. Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a plastic surface imitation metal brushing process, which is suitable for flat surfaces or simple curved surfaces with high surface finish. By sequentially performing multiple spraying + NCVM + multiple spraying treatments, the surface stress of the plastic substrate can be eliminated, its surface activity can be improved, and a thin film with a thickness of 80-400um can be formed on its surface, thereby achieving brushing treatment on its surface. Combined with subsequent ultrasonic cleaning and secondary spraying topcoat processes, a better visual effect similar to metal brushing can be formed. Compared with metal brushing production, it has a practical effect of similar appearance but shorter production cycle and lower cost.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, a technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0005] The plastic part surface imitation metal brushing process includes spraying the polished plastic part surface in a spray room, and the spraying process includes the following steps in sequence:
[0006] Step S1-spraying treatment agent: 5073 paint and 051 thinner are uniformly mixed in a volume ratio of 100:5 to form a treatment agent, which is evenly sprayed on the exterior surface with a spray gun and baked and cured to form a 6-12um film;
[0007] Step S2-primer spraying: Use D85-211 paint crude oil as primer, spray it evenly on the exterior surface with a spray gun and bake and solidify to form a 20-25um film;
[0008] Step S3-NCVM (discontinuous electroplating): hang the product in a vacuum plating furnace for electroplating. The evaporation material is a 2.5-2.7 cm indium wire. The first plating time is 8-12 seconds, the second plating time is 10-14 seconds, and the third plating time is 48-52 seconds.
[0009] Step S4 - Spraying protective paint: Prepare protective paint by uniformly mixing 800 - 202 paint and DF - 2 thinner in a volume ratio of 100:15. Spray it evenly on the appearance surface with a spray gun and bake it to cure, forming a 6 - 10um thin film.
[0010] Step S5 - First spraying topcoat: Use 910 - 71 paint crude oil as the first topcoat. Spray it evenly on the appearance surface with a spray gun and bake it to cure, forming a 25 - 35um thin film.
[0011] Step S6 - Wire drawing: Draw fine wires on the appearance surface, and the wire drawing depth is less than 70um.
[0012] Step S7 - Ultrasonic cleaning: Clean and dry the product surface.
[0013] Step S8 - Second spraying topcoat: Prepare the second topcoat by uniformly mixing 910 - 71 paint and P00E - 105 paint in a volume ratio of 90:10. Spray it evenly on the appearance surface with a spray gun and bake it to cure, forming a 2 - 6um thin film.
[0014] As a further elaboration of the above technical solution:
[0015] In the above technical solution, the baking temperature in both Step S1 and Step S2 is between 45 - 55°C, and the baking time is between 6 - 8 minutes.
[0016] In the above technical solution, in Step S3, the voltage in the first stage is between 1.9 - 2.3V, and the current is between 390 - 410A; the voltage in the second stage is between 2.3 - 2.7V, and the current is between 790 - 810A; the voltage in the third stage is between 2.5 - 2.9V, and the current is between 990 - 1010A.
[0017] In the above technical solution, between Step S4 and Step S5, there is also Step S41 - Spraying color paint: Prepare color paint by uniformly mixing 800 - 202 paint and DF - 2 thinner in a volume ratio of 100:5. Spray it evenly on the appearance surface with a spray gun and bake it to cure, forming a 6 - 12mm thin film.

[0021] In the above technical solution, before step S1, there is also step S0 - grinding the appearance surface: using a fine grinding / abrasive tool to grind the appearance surface of the plastic part.
[0022] In the above technical solution, the temperature of the spray booth is between 20 - 30 °C, and the humidity of the spray booth is between 50 - 75% RH. The spray coatings used in steps S1 - S5 and S8 need to be filtered through a 500 - mesh filter screen two or more times, and the atomization pressure and fan - shaped pressure of each spray gun are both 2.5 - 3.5 kg / cm².
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The present invention is applicable to planes or simple curved surfaces with relatively high surface finish.

Cooperating with subsequent ultrasonic cleaning and secondary top - coat spraying processes, a better visual effect similar to wire drawing of metal parts can be formed. Compared with metal wire drawing production, it has the practical effects of similar appearance but shorter production cycle and lower cost. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0028] As Figure 1 shown, the surface imitation metal wire drawing process of the plastic part includes: spraying the appearance surface of the polished plastic part in the spraying booth, and the spraying process sequentially includes the following steps:
[0029] Step S1 - Spraying the treatment agent: Mix 5073 paint and 051 thinner evenly at a volume ratio of 100:5 to make the treatment agent, and spray it evenly on the appearance surface with a spray gun and bake and cure it to form a 6 - 12um thin film;
[0030] Step S2 - Spraying primer: Using D85-211 coating crude oil as the primer, spray it evenly on the appearance surface with a spray gun and bake and cure it to form a 20-25um thin film;
[0031] Step S3 - NCVM (Non-Conductive Vacuum Metallization): Hang the product in a vacuum plating furnace for electroplating treatment. The evaporation plating material is indium wire with a length of 2.5-2.7cm. The first plating time is 8-12 seconds, the second plating time is 10-14 seconds, and the third plating time is 48-52 seconds;
[0032] Step S4 - Spraying protective paint: Mix 800-202 coating and DF-2 thinner evenly at a volume ratio of 100:15 to make the protective paint. Spray it evenly on the appearance surface with a spray gun and bake and cure it to form a 6-10um thin film;
[0033] Step S5 - First spraying topcoat: Using 910-71 coating crude oil as the first topcoat, spray it evenly on the appearance surface with a spray gun and bake and cure it to form a 25-35um thin film;
[0034] Step S6 - Wire drawing: Draw fine wires on the appearance surface, and the wire drawing depth is less than 70um;

[0037] Specifically, the baking temperature in both Step S1 and Step S2 is between 45-55°C, and the baking time is between 6-8 minutes.
[0038] Specifically, in Step S3, the voltage in the first stage is between 1.9-2.3V, and the current is between 390-410A; the voltage in the second stage is between 2.3-2.7V, and the current is between 790-810A; the voltage in the third stage is between 2.5-2.9V, and the current is between 990-1010A.
[0039] Furthermore, between Step S4 and Step S5, there is also Step S41 - Spraying color paint: Mix 800-202 coating and DF-2 thinner evenly at a volume ratio of 100:5 to make the color paint.

[0044] Specifically, the temperature in the spray booth is between 20 - 30°C, and the humidity in the spray booth is between 50 - 75% RH. The spray paint used in steps S1 - S5 and S8 needs to be filtered through a 500 - mesh filter screen two or more times.

[0046] The present invention is applicable to planes or simple curved surfaces with relatively high surface finish. By sequentially performing multiple spraying + NCVM + multiple spraying treatments, the surface stress of the plastic substrate can be eliminated, its surface activity can be enhanced, and a film with a thickness of 80 - 400 um can be formed on its surface, so as to realize wire - drawing treatment on its surface. Cooperating with the subsequent ultrasonic cleaning and secondary spraying top - coat process, a better visual effect similar to that of metal parts with wire - drawing can be formed. Compared with metal wire - drawing production, it has the practical effects of similar appearance but shorter production cycle and lower cost.
[0047] The above does not impose any limitation on the technical scope of the present invention. Any modification, equivalent change, and modification made to the above - mentioned embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention still fall within the scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
