• Local areas of the mold have excessively high temperatures, and traditional spray systems cannot address specific mold hotspots, leading to challenges in localized cooling.
• Traditional spray systems leave blind spots during mold spraying, resulting in incomplete coverage and the potential for casting defects such as burn-on, reducing product yield.
• Deep mold sections make it difficult for traditional copper nozzle systems to effectively and uniformly spray release agents. Additional manual assistance is required to supplement spraying near the die-casting machine.
• Excessive usage of release agents by traditional spray systems results in high wastewater treatment costs.
• Lack of clarity on the varying amounts of release agents required for different castings.
• Difficulty in finding the appropriate spray nozzle for specific castings amid a cluttered and dirty setup.
• Tedious adjustments of copper pipes' angles and potential face exposure to release agents during setup with traditional spray systems.

If you are facing these challenges, please contact Tovonn Technology. We can discuss and plan how to automate the release agent spraying process in die-casting, ushering in the era of automation.

Tovonn Technology provides comprehensive robotic spraying integration services, collaborating with robotic arm manufacturers such as YASKAWA, ABB, and FANUC. Our service range includes supplying robotic arms, release agent spraying tools and control systems, as well as debugging and programming tailored to specific castings.

By integrating release agent flow detection, we monitor the spraying volume of each production cycle. If deviations from the set standard are too significant, it indicates issues with the release agent pipeline or nozzles. Immediate notifications or alerts are sent to relevant personnel for inspection, reducing the rate of defective castings.

During the integration planning phase, we utilize 3D simulation software to define the workspace and installation space, laying the foundation for subsequent on-site programming. This approach minimizes trial and error time on-site, ensuring an efficient integration process. Tovonn Technology has the capability to integrate spraying technology with robotic arms and die-casting machines. We have connected to various die-casting machines, including TOYO, TOSHIBA, TBC, HISHINUMA, BUHLER, UBE, FRECH, Prince, Italpresse, LK Machinery, HSIN LIEN SHENG Machinery, ALTEK, and more.

Features

• For die-casting machines below 250T: Straight 6-nozzle spray mechanism, with 3 each on the fixed and movable sides (standard spray mechanism).
• For 350T ~ 650T ~ 800T die-casting machines: Straight 8-nozzle spray mechanism, with 4 each on the fixed and movable sides (standard spray mechanism).
• For die-casting machines above 800T: Recommended to use horizontal spray mechanism with 10 - 12 nozzles (customized spray mechanism).
• Customized spray mechanisms: Feel free to contact us to discuss types and quantities.
• Each nozzle can be independently controlled for opening and closing, or several nozzles can be grouped for control.
• Blow functions for the fixed and movable sides can be controlled separately.
• Quick response valve opening and closing control at the nozzle front.
• Nozzles controlled using compact standard solenoid valves, saving space.
• External mixing of air and release agent for excellent atomization.
• Compact spray mechanism with agile movement, minimizing dead angles in spraying.
• Extended pipelines can be installed at the front of the nozzle for deep spraying into the mold.
• Aperture of release agent passages is greater than 1.8mm, preventing blockages by impurities.
• Optimal spraying of the right amount of release agent at suitable positions in the mold, reducing consumption and minimizing mold temperature drop.
• Concentrated spraying on mold hotspots to avoid sticking and burning, ensuring balanced mold temperature.
• Robot program selection for different mold spraying angles and positions, eliminating the need for copper pipe seat storage and management, reducing mold changeover time.

Product Advantages

● ESG Compliance: Meets Environmental, Social, and Governance requirements by conserving air and release agent consumption, reducing harmful substances in the air, saving energy, and lowering wastewater treatment costs.
● Labor Cost Savings: Robotic arms can operate around the clock, saving the equivalent of two shifts of manual labor.
● Reduced Production Costs: Compared to manual spraying, automated control of spraying precisely manages the amount of release agent, reducing costs associated with release agent consumption and wastewater treatment.
● Personnel Safety Protection: Previous manual operations required workers to wear masks and goggles to protect against release agents and smoke, but the effectiveness was limited, leading to long-term impacts on lung function. Additionally, manual spraying involves placing arms within the working range of die-casting machines, resulting in unfortunate workplace accidents such as crushed arms or fingers. Automation significantly contributes to worker health protection, recognizing that employee well-being is a company's paramount interest.
