Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to electrolytic copper foil auxiliary production equipment technical field especially relates to a device for cleaning and polishing FRP pipe for electrolytic copper foil production. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the process of electrolytic copper foil slitting, FRP (fiber reinforced composite material) pipe is used as the pipe core for carrying foil. FRP pipe is widely used in electrolytic copper foil slitting, and its price is inferior to that of paper tube. Therefore, enterprises usually recycle it, which can reduce the demand for raw materials, reduce resource consumption, help achieve sustainable development, reduce the production demand for new fiber reinforced materials and resins, thereby reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions. However, the recycled FRP pipe has the following quality problems: 1) surface damage: during the use of copper foil at the customer end, the FRP pipe may be subjected to impact, friction or scratching, resulting in scratches, wear and even pits on the surface. This not only affects the appearance, but also causes the pipe to be used again. In addition, improper operation during recycling, handling and storage can also cause scratches on the surface of the FRP pipe. For example, contact with sharp objects, dragging on rough surfaces, etc. 2) Material structure: fiber breakage or delamination: the surface fiber reinforced material may break due to excessive stress during use. Moreover, if the manufacturing process is poor or affected by chemical substances, delamination may occur between the fiber and the resin. 3) Resin aging and degradation: the resin matrix is an important component of the FRP pipe. The resin on the surface of the recycled FRP pipe may age and degrade due to long-term exposure to light, chemicals or high temperature. This will cause the resin to lose its original adhesion and toughness, resulting in pipe cracking. 4) Impurities and pollution, chemical residues: various adhesives or tapes are used during the electrolytic copper foil slitting process, and these adhesives may remain on the surface of the FRP pipe. In addition, due to the use of lithium battery negative current collector for carrying electrolytic copper foil, graphite, adhesive, electrolyte, copper foil debris and other chemical substances are left on the surface of the FRP pipe. If these residual substances are not completely removed, they will seriously affect subsequent use. Removing the adhesive is a difficult process, and some strong adhesives are difficult to completely remove, requiring the use of special solvents or cleaning methods. Moreover, if not handled properly, it may damage the material of the FRP pipe. Currently, electrolytic copper foil manufacturers do not have an automatic cleaning and polishing device for removing adhesive. Most of them use manual knife blade to remove adhesive, sandpaper to polish or bed to polish concave and convex points, which not only consumes a lot of manpower and time, but also has low efficiency and poor processing quality. In summary, the problems of scratches and adhesive increase the challenge to the quality of recycled FRP pipe, and effective detection and treatment measures need to be taken during the recycling process to ensure that it can be safely and effectively used again.
