Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold cleaning and maintenance technology, specifically a device for cleaning and maintaining mold cavities. Background Technology

[0002] In modern industrial production, molds, as an important process equipment, are widely used in many fields such as machinery manufacturing, automobiles, electronics, and aerospace. The mold cavity is a key component of the mold, and its surface quality and precision directly affect the molding quality and production efficiency of the product. However, during actual use, the mold cavity faces many problems. If timely and effective cleaning and maintenance are not carried out, it will have a serious negative impact on the mold's performance and service life.

[0003] Currently, existing methods and equipment for cleaning and maintaining mold cavities have certain limitations. Some cleaning methods rely heavily on manual operation, which is labor-intensive, inefficient, and makes it difficult to guarantee the comprehensiveness and consistency of cleaning. While some automated cleaning equipment improves cleaning efficiency to some extent, the cleaning effect is often unsatisfactory for complex-shaped mold cavities, easily resulting in cleaning blind spots. Moreover, existing cleaning equipment has shortcomings in media mixing and delivery, leading to uneven application of cleaning and maintenance media to the mold cavity surface, affecting the quality of cleaning and maintenance. In addition, existing maintenance measures mostly focus on surface rust prevention treatment, lacking effective means to improve the microstructure and performance of the internal mold cavity.

[0004] In view of this, we propose a cleaning and maintenance device for mold cavities. Utility Model Content
