In the process of production, different blockages will occur. The present invention has made a diversified combination of cleaning process design in the cleaning process. The present invention provides a polishing device for the pit anilox roller. In the process of automatic programming of the PLC machine, according to the different process products of each enterprise, the combination cleaning methods of A, B, C, and D are respectively classified and designed, which effectively cleans the blockage of the pits caused by various processes, materials, and materials. The present invention mainly divides it into four types of combined cleaning, namely A, B, C and D. In the cleaning process of these four types, the first step of ultrasonic cleaning is indispensable, and a combined cleaning process is used at the same time. The process characteristics are that the materials used in different types of printing, coating, gluing and other processes are different, and the ultrasonic cleaning liquid needs special configuration. For example, for solvent-based printing or coating, the ultrasonic cleaning liquid needs to be configured with a solvent as the main material. For example, when using water-soluble ink or water-soluble adhesive, when configuring the ultrasonic cleaning liquid, a main formula cleaning liquid that is affinity with water is used. Among them, the ultrasonic cleaning liquid must be configured according to each different process.

In this embodiment, the oxalic acid solvent ratio is 28%, and this concentration of oxalic acid solvent has the best cleaning effect.

[0053] Category B: water-soluble ink printing, coating, gluing and other processes. It is also the largest category of paper printing. The combined cleaning process is: ultrasonic cleaning + high-pressure washing + replacement cleaning. The replacement cleaning is 70% detergent powder + 30% washing powder configured into a paste.

[0054] Category C: Light printing or direct printing processes such as printing and dyeing, iron printing, etc., where the mesh pit is not seriously clogged, and the combined cleaning process: ultrasonic + copper wire brush or steel wire brush cleaning.

[0055] Category D: The mesh pits are blocked by alcohol water printing, coating, and gluing processes. The combined cleaning process is: ultrasonic + copper wire brushing + high-pressure washing cleaning

[0056] According to the above cleaning process, the printing plate roller, coating roller, anilox roller, ceramic roller and other mesh-pit rollers can be effectively cleaned. The enterprises using it can save a lot of plate-making roller costs, save the time of plate-making rollers, and improve the delivery quality and production efficiency.

[0057] The above-mentioned cleaning process is cleaning: in the programming of the PLC machine in a polishing device using a pit anilox roller provided by the present invention, the cleaning process and combination scheme are set up, and according to different cleaning processes, the cleaning combination process scheme is input, adjusted or modified on the touch screen to adapt to the different cleaning process selections of each enterprise, which can simplify the cleaning process, make it effective, easy to operate, and can effectively and thoroughly solve the problem of blocked pits.

[0058] The present invention provides a process for a polishing device using a pit anilox roller, which specifically comprises the following steps:

[0059] Step 1: Use the human-machine interface of the PLC machine to set the parameters of the polishing equipment, and then use the first hydraulic cylinder 28 and the clamp 37 on the electric clamping device 34 to clamp the anilox roller body 3;

[0060] Step 2: Use the lifting mechanism 1 to lift the immersion tank 2, partially immerse the anilox roller body 3 into the immersion tank 2, close the cover of the immersion tank 2 to seal it, and start the second motor 35 to rotate the anilox roller body 3 for cleaning; after cleaning for 1-10 minutes, use the lifting mechanism 1 to lower the immersion tank 2, and then use the nozzle to clean the anilox roller body 3, and use the blowing part 11 to dry the anilox roller body 3 after cleaning; in this embodiment, for the problem that the angle at the bottom of the mesh pit is difficult to clean, two or three combined cleaning methods can be selected according to the cleaning difficulty to achieve the purpose of thorough cleaning. The specific cleaning method is: if the first two cleaning methods still cannot be thoroughly cleaned, the physical replacement method should be selected: 10%~50% washing powder is mixed with 90%~50% detergent powder, and 20~300g of water is added to each 1kg of mixed powder to make it into a paste or wet powder. At this time, the protective cover on the polishing equipment needs to be opened, and the operator wears rubber gloves, grabs the mixture and applies it to the roller surface of the anilox roller body 3, and then presses the mixture on the rotating roller surface with both hands to make the mixture enter the mesh pit on the roller surface. With continuous filling, the residue that has been soaked and softened during the previous cleaning process will be replaced, so as to achieve the purpose of thorough cleaning. If the method is used directly without the cleaning process described above, the residual solidified material cannot be replaced out of the mesh pit;

[0061] Step 3) After the anilox roller body 3 is dried, the polishing head 5 is lowered by using the lifting platform 7. After the polishing head 5 and the anilox roller body 3 are pressed tightly, the third hydraulic cylinder 136 is started to extend the third hydraulic rod 135. The third hydraulic rod 135 drives the receiving groove 134 to move to the lower side of the anilox roller body 3 to receive the polished debris. The first motor 8 and the second motor 35 are started to rotate simultaneously to polish the anilox roller body 3 to form a double C-shaped pattern. The polishing time is set according to the depth of the net pits on the anilox roller surface. After the polishing is qualified, the first motor 8 is turned off. The pressure ranges for pressing the polishing head 5 and the anilox roller body 3 are as follows: the high pressure range is 0.4~0.6 MPa, the medium pressure range is 0.2~0.4 MPa, and the low pressure range is less than 0.1 MPa.

[0062] Step 4) Open the nozzle, use a solvent or solution to perform a secondary cleaning on the anilox roller body 3 to wash away the remaining impurities, and use the nozzle on the blowing part 11 to perform a secondary drying on the anilox roller body 3;

[0063] Step 5) Open the spraying part 9 to spray the dried anilox roller body 3 with protective oil. After the protective oil treatment is qualified, use a robot to coat the anilox roller body 3, and then pack the anilox roller body 3 with corrugated paper for storage;

[0064] Step 6) Performing environmental treatment on the waste liquid in the immersion tank 2, firstly opening the valve 26 on the liquid return pipe 14 to allow the immersion liquid to enter the distillation tank 15 for distillation treatment, and then turning on the negative pressure air pump 24 to cause the immersion liquid in the distillation tank 15 to roll, and the immersion liquid after distillation treatment flows into the cooling tank 16 through the steam outflow pipe 158 for condensation treatment;

[0065] Step 7) The immersion liquid that has been condensed in step 6 is directed to the ultrasonic cleaning liquid tank, water tank, oil tank, ethanol tank, and solution tank respectively by opening different valves 17 according to the type of immersion liquid, and then the liquid supply pump 25 on the liquid supply and return pipeline 27 is turned on to supply liquid to the immersion tank 2 according to the type of immersion liquid used.

[0066] like Figure 6 and Fig. 9 As shown, the equipment in the prior art includes material A4 under the anilox roller A3, a coating roller A2 and a metering roller A5, the coating roller A2 and the metering roller A5 are in the raw material liquid A1, the coating roller A2 and the metering roller A5 rotate in the same direction, and the gap between them can be adjusted. When the coating roller A2 and the metering roller A5 are squeezed, the first straight line scratch F1 and the second straight line scratch F2 are generated due to the existing residue F3, and the first intersection F4 and the second intersection F6 of the first straight line scratch F1 and the second straight line scratch F2 are generated. Since the coating roller A2 and the metering roller A5 rotate in the same direction, the scratch F5 from the first intersection F4 to the second intersection F6 is a structure that gradually widens and deepens.

[0067] like Figure 7 and Fig. 9 As shown, another device in the prior art includes a printing material B1 under a glue pressing roller B2 and an anilox roller B4, a scraper B3 is provided on the anilox roller B4, the anilox roller B4 is coated with glue in a glue liquid B5 in a liquid tank, the anilox roller B4 rotates in the liquid tank, when the scraper B3 squeezes the anilox roller B4, a first straight line scratch F1 and a second straight line scratch F2 are generated due to the existing residue F3, and a first intersection F4 and a second intersection F6 of the first straight line scratch F1 and the second straight line scratch F2 are generated, and since the coating roller A2 and the metering roller A5 rotate in the same direction, the scratch F5 from the first intersection F4 to the second intersection F6 is a structure that gradually widens and deepens.

[0068] Figure 6 and Figure 7 The two devices will produce two longitudinal tracks that gradually become wider and deeper, and will also lead to cross-type polishing tracks. The marks left by the anilox roller are increasingly worn, and in severe cases, it may be scrapped.

[0069] In the polishing device for the pit anilox roller provided by the present invention, the polishing head 5 is driven by the first motor 8 to rotate to polish the anilox roller body 3, and the second motor 31 drives the anilox roller body 3 to rotate to polish the anilox roller body 3. The scratches caused by the residue C3 on the anilox roller body 3 constitute C-shaped patterns and / or spiral patterns of varying sizes and irregular shapes.

[0070] like Figure 8 As shown, the C-type pattern includes a first C-type pattern C1 and / or a second C-type pattern C2, and the generated intersections include a first intersection C4, a second intersection C5, a third intersection C6, a fourth intersection C7 and a fifth intersection C8, wherein the scratch gradually becomes thinner from the first intersection C4 to the second intersection C5; the scratch gradually becomes thinner from the third intersection C6 to the fourth intersection C7 and the fifth intersection C8 until it disappears.

[0071] like Fig.10 As shown, the thread pattern includes a first pattern E1, a second pattern E2 and / or a third pattern E3 that intersect each other. The intersection of the traces of the first pattern E1, the second pattern E2 and / or the third pattern E3 will be a large C-shaped pattern track or a small C-shaped pattern track. Positive or negative C-shaped patterns or thread patterns may also be produced. The track of the residue will be interrupted first and then smoothed. The scratches will gradually decrease until they disappear. No residual substances will be left, thereby improving the polishing effect and efficiency.

[0072] The preferred specific implementation modes and embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above implementation modes and embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of those skilled in the art without departing from the concept of the present invention.
