AUTO FABRIC COATING BY BULLOWS (MAKE IN INDIA) | INDUSTRY 4.0

 Being the manufacturer of Spray Gun & Painting equipments related to Spraying, feeding, recirculating & agitating, we come across lot of customers with different difficulties at their painting process. One of such customers where we did altogether different application than our usual offerings. Our customer is into cloth manufacturing for defense on which they wanted to have different designs as per defense requirement.

Initially, they were doing this activity by using different design stencils keeping on cloth & manual painting by using operator. This process was too time consuming & operator dependent. They found that they need lot of time for painting of one single complete rim of 100 mtrs cloth. At the same time, human intelligence was required to select design stencil every time because it was not allowed to follow same sequence of design every time, it was expected to be done with different and random designs. Finally, we together with customer came up with automatic coating machine with handling of different stencils on conveyor, handling of cloth by using winder & unwinder & handling of 8 different spray guns on reciprocator. Hence, this new special purpose automatic painting machine is integration of stencil conveyor, reciprocator & winder-unwinder. In order to handle issue of random design selection, we gave option of putting sequences in an excel & upload it on our given system interface so that conveyor can behave accordingly, and random design requirement can be achieved without human intervention during production. 8 nos automatic spray guns with auto feeding system was supplied with interlocks of auto cleaning for less maintenance activity. Each spray gun operates independently so that can control spray gun operation as per design of stencil. In order to comply Safety & Pollution Control Board requirement, system was supplied along with Spray Painting Booth which ensured no hazardous oversprayed particles settles inside or outside Spray booth. It is properly arrested through Paint Arrestance filters & exhaust systems with given government limit of PPM. To match production, we had challenge of making ink / paint dry on cloth immediately before it reaches to winder station. Hence, we have installed Oven with certain temperature which ensures ink dries before it reaches to winder station. Supplied oven works on Boiler steam energy which was already available at customer’s premises. We could achieve following results by installing Auto Painting System for Fabric Coating, 1. Coating Operator dependency is removed 2. Complete auto handling removed additional manpower & improved in productivity 3. Auto Spray Painting System ensured controlled use of Ink or Paint, lesser maintenance 4. Intelligent Interface helps ease in use of system, user can modify inputs for design, auto alarms where human intervention is required & auto interlocks for less maintenance activities If you are looking forward to have your painting process automated at your place which can reduce Manual Intervention in your system & make it automatic to increase productivity with same or lesser resources.
