AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The production of microcrystalline glass for kitchen appliances suffers from problems such as fragmented processes, low automation, difficulty in controlling finished product dimensions, large material waste, low production efficiency, and high risk of breakage. In particular, hard particles on the bottom of the glass can easily adhere to the surface of the rollers in the washing machine, causing scratches.

Method used

The design incorporates a flexible microcrystalline glass continuous production line for kitchen appliances, including a front-end forming and crystallization unit, a middle-end precision cutting and path selection unit, a rear-end edge grinding, cleaning and inspection unit, and an end-end screen printing and baking unit. The entire line control system integrates an intelligent size compensation module, combined with a scraping mechanism, air jet cleaning, and negative pressure extraction mechanism, to achieve automated production and efficient cleaning.

Benefits of technology

It enables continuous production of microcrystalline glass throughout the entire process, reducing material waste, increasing yield, lowering labor costs, ensuring product surface smoothness, preventing scratches, and improving production efficiency and finished product quality.

Abstract

This invention relates to the field of continuous production lines for microcrystalline glass, and discloses a flexible continuous production line for microcrystalline glass used in kitchen appliances. The line includes a front-end forming and crystallization unit, a middle-end precision cutting and path selection unit, a rear-end edge grinding, cleaning, and inspection unit, and a final screen printing and baking unit, as well as a complete line control system connected sequentially. The front-end forming and crystallization unit includes a melting furnace, a rolling mill, an annealing furnace, a crystallization furnace, a flipping machine, and a robotic arm. This invention proposes a flexible continuous production line for microcrystalline glass used in kitchen appliances. Through an intelligent size compensation module, the effects of crystallization shrinkage are precisely offset, eliminating the need for secondary cutting, reducing waste, and improving yield. The entire process is designed to be seamless, and automated equipment eliminates manual intervention, reducing costs and increasing efficiency to achieve continuous production. Multiple cleaning processes work together to remove impurities, and partitions provide isolation and protection, improving the surface finish of the product to meet appearance requirements.
