Robotic Paint Gun Cleaning
Product Description
The
automatic cap-washing system offered by Crystal Cap Cleaners Inc.
provides effective, effortless cap washing in a compact unit designed
with longevity and ease of maintenance in mind. The entire unit is
contained in one 316 stainless steel container and can be mounted
anywhere in the paint booth. The wash system is controlled using one
solvent and one air supply valve. A self-propelled, rotating
high-impact wash head is the essence of the cap cleaning procedure.
Operation
Crystal Cap Cleaners' patented design incorporates a rotating impeller
unit that directs the force of two high impact nozzles directly at the
air cap which is sealed by an O-ring. This approach sees the purge
solvent striking the cap from a continuously changing direction. Due to
the effectiveness of the high impact nozzles in motion, solvent usage
is minimal, keeping the unit free of paint build up. Our round vessel
design contributes to the continuous flushing action of the drive
nozzles.
After washing, Crystal Cap Cleaners' design simply uses the existing
impeller to dry the air caps. This approach eliminates the need for air
knives, which can get clogged while exposed to the booth environment.
Additionally, the impeller consumes less air, and does not need extra
piping, or high capacity valves. A 2" NPT drain port is provided at the
bottom of the unit for connection to a solvent recovery system, or to
direct the waste from the unit through the booth grate or into a
holding container.
