Cleaning cardboard printers with a pull-in roller – CT-Effects Application Example

[ Actuator ]

ISWA-L (Dust proof Splash-Proof Single-Axis Robot Slider Type)

• [Issues until now]
  Since the brushing was done by hand, the following issues occurred in the cleaning process

  1) Incomplete cleaning due to the unevenness in the speed of the stroke of the brush
  2) Incomplete cleaning due to the unevenness in the strength of the stroke of the brush.

  Since the brushing was repeated numerous times until the printer was completely clean, a lot of time was spent on the cleaning process.

• [Improvement Details]
  The unevenness in the cleaning process was fixed by moving the brush at a constant speed. (The touch of the brush to the machine was also stabilized)

• [Improvement Results]
  The efficiency of the brushing process improved and the cleaning time became shorter.
  

  Reduction in cleaning time (per day):
  Reduced from 60min →10min
  
  Production Time (per day):
  12% increase from 420min →470min
