Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of enamel product spraying technology, and more specifically, to an enamel product and its intelligent spraying system. Background Technology

[0002] Enameled products are composite materials made by coating an inorganic vitreous porcelain enamel (enamel) onto a metal substrate and firing it at high temperatures. They combine the mechanical strength of metal with the corrosion resistance and easy-to-clean properties of porcelain enamel. The manufacturing process includes metal forming, surface treatment, enamel coating, and high-temperature firing. Based on their uses, they can be divided into seven categories: daily-use, sanitary, industrial, architectural, medical, artistic, and special enamels, and are widely used in household utensils, chemical equipment, building materials, and other fields.

[0003] Enamelware originated in ancient Egypt, with cloisonné enamelware from the Ming Dynasty in China being a branch of its craft. After 1916, with the application of steel stamping and cast iron casting technologies, enamelware products transitioned from art pieces to everyday items, becoming common household utensils in China by the mid-20th century. After the 1990s, due to issues such as the susceptibility of enamel to chipping and the tendency for metal to rust, it was gradually replaced by stainless steel and plastic, leading to the decline of the traditional everyday enamelware industry. Modern enamelware products are shifting towards high-end and functional applications, used in industrial corrosion protection, medical equipment, and aerospace, while also expanding their artistic and design value through enamel techniques.

[0004] Existing spraying systems rely on manual spraying, which depends on worker experience. Curved areas are prone to missed spraying, and environmental interference cannot be compensated for in real time. In addition, the path planning of the robotic arm depends on offline programming and cannot dynamically respond to workpiece pose drift. Furthermore, defect detection relies on manual visual inspection, which increases the rate of missed bubble detection and thus increases the rework cost as a percentage of the total spraying cost. To address this, we propose an intelligent spraying system for enamel products. Summary of the Invention

[0005] 1. Technical problems to be solved In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this invention is to provide an enamel product and its intelligent spraying system. This invention not only realizes the spraying of enamel products, but also improves the quality of the entire process and optimizes the overall benefits.
