Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of automation, and in particular relates to an automatic cleaning system for carrier glass. Background Art

[0002] During the production process of carrier glass, it is necessary to ensure dust-free operation in the production workshop to prevent dust from entering and affecting the production qualification rate of subsequent products.

[0003] Since the conveyor roller is in operation for a long time, the static electricity carried on its surface will absorb some fine dust, human hair, skin debris, etc., which may stick to the carrier glass during the transmission process, affecting subsequent processing and causing a decrease in product qualification rate. Therefore, the conveyor roller needs to be cleaned regularly.

[0004] In the prior art, the cleaning of the carrier glass is usually done manually with a vacuum cleaner or a tape roller, and then a glass film is applied to the carrier glass manually or as an additional process to prevent dust from sticking. This method has a low cleaning efficiency and greatly affects production efficiency.
