Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Reinigung von Werkstücken gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Patentanspruch 1The invention relates to a method for cleaning workpieces according to the preamble of
Bei der Fertigung von komplexen Werkstücken, wie etwas Zylinderköpfen von Brennkraftmaschinen, werden üblicherweise viele verschiedene Bearbeitungsvorgänge hintereinander durchgeführt. Zwischen diesen Arbeitsvorgängen ist es erforderlich, Messvorgänge durchzuführen, um den Arbeitsfortschritt zu überprüfen und eine Qualitätskontrolle zu ermöglichen. Viele der Bearbeitungsvorgänge sind mit einer Verschmutzung des Werkstückes verbunden, was sich beispielsweise darin äußert, dass Kühlmedium oder Hohnöl auf dem Werkstück haftet oder Späne von spanabhebenden Bearbeitungsvorgängen am Werkstück zurückbleiben. Um genaue und unverfälschte Messungen zu ermöglichen, ist es erforderlich, diese Rückstände von den betreffenden Teilen des Werkstückes zu entfernen, was derzeit zumeist in der Weise geschieht, dass die Werkstücke händisch mit Druckluftpistolen angeblasen werden. Problematisch dabei ist, dass auch bei Verwendung von aufwendigen geräuschverminderten Druckluftpistolen eine große Lärmentwicklung auftritt. Darüber hinaus werden bei der händischen Reinigung die anhaftenden Rückstände zerstäubt und stellen so einerseits eine Verletzungsgefahr und andererseits eine Verschmutzung dar, die die Luft am Arbeitsplatz der Person belastet.In the manufacture of complex workpieces, such as some cylinder heads of internal combustion engines, usually many different machining operations are performed one behind the other. Between these operations it is necessary to carry out measuring operations in order to check the work progress and to allow a quality control. Many of the machining operations are associated with contamination of the workpiece, which manifests itself, for example, in the fact that cooling medium or scouring oil adheres to the workpiece or chips of machining operations on the workpiece remain. To enable accurate and unadulterated measurements, it is necessary to remove these residues from the relevant parts of the workpiece, which is currently usually done in such a way that the workpieces are manually blown with compressed air guns. The problem with this is that even when using complex noise-reduced compressed air guns a large noise occurs. In addition, in manual cleaning, the adhering residues are atomized and so on the one hand, a risk of injury and on the other hand, a pollution that pollutes the air at the workplace of the person.
Neben diesen Nachteilen ist anzumerken, dass die händische Reinigung, insbesondere bei komplexen Werkstücken, arbeitsintensiv ist und dadurch nicht nur Personalkosten verursacht, sondern auch die Produktion verlangsamt.In addition to these disadvantages, it should be noted that manual cleaning, especially for complex workpieces, is labor-intensive, thereby not only causing labor costs, but also slowing down production.
Eine bekannte Alternative zu händischen Reinigung sind Reinigungsmaschinen, in denen die Bauteile zunächst einem flüssigen Reinigungsmedium ausgesetzt werden und danach getrocknet werden. Solche Reinigungsmaschinen sind extrem aufwendig und kostenintensiv und verursachen durch die erforderlichen Zykluszeiten eine erhebliche Verlangsamung des Produktionsprozesses.A known alternative to manual cleaning are cleaning machines in which the components are first exposed to a liquid cleaning medium and then dried. Such cleaning machines are extremely expensive and costly and cause by the required cycle times a significant slowdown of the production process.
Aus der EP 0 158 904 A ist ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Reinigen von Körpern von anhaftendem Staub bekannt. Dabei werden die Körper, wie etwa Metallbehälter für Ton- oder Videobänder, durch eine Reinigungsschleuse transportiert und mit Gebläseluft beaufschlagt. Eine solche Vorrichtung ist zur Reinigung von Gegenständen gut geeignet, wenn die Verunreinigung primär aus Staub besteht. Die Reinigung von Werkstücken, die mit Rückständen, wie etwa Spänen, Honöl oder dergleichen verunreinigt sind, ist mit einer solchen Vorrichtung nicht möglich.From EP 0 158 904 A a method and a device for cleaning bodies of adhering dust is known. The bodies, such as metal containers for audio or video tapes, are transported through a cleaning lock and supplied with forced air. Such a device is for cleaning of objects if the contaminant is primarily dust. The cleaning of workpieces that are contaminated with residues such as chips, honing oil or the like is not possible with such a device.
Die DE 29 36 779 A zeigt eine Vorrichtung zum Reinigen von Kraftfahrzeugbremsen, bei der die zu reinigende Bremse durch eine Absaughaube abgedeckt wird und durch bewegliche Düsen mit Druckluft beaufschlagt wird. Eine ähnliche Vorrichtung zur Reinigung von Luftfiltern ist in der US 4,808,234 A beschrieben. Es hat sich jedoch herausgestellt, dass solche Vorrichtungen in der Praxis nicht in der Lage sind, innerhalb von kurzer Zeit eine ausreichende Reinigung von Werkstücken zu ermöglichen.DE 29 36 779 A shows a device for cleaning motor vehicle brakes, in which the brake to be cleaned is covered by a suction hood and is acted upon by movable nozzles with compressed air. A similar device for cleaning air filters is described in US 4,808,234 A. However, it has been found that in practice such devices are not able to provide sufficient cleaning of workpieces within a short time.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, das Verfahren der oben beschriebenen Art so weiterzubilden, dass auch bei fest anheftenden und schwierig zu entfernenden Verunreinigungen innerhalb kurzer Zeit eine ausreichende Reinigung erzielt wird. Dabei sollen die Geräuschemissionen minimiert werden und das Verletzungsrisiko, sowie die Verschmutzung der Raumluft soll minimiert werden. Weiters soll die Vorrichtung einfach und kostengünstig herstellbar sein und einen geringen Platzbedarf aufweisen.Object of the present invention is to develop the method of the type described above so that even with firmly adhering and difficult to remove impurities within a short time sufficient cleaning is achieved. The noise emissions should be minimized and the risk of injury as well as the pollution of the indoor air should be minimized. Furthermore, the device should be simple and inexpensive to produce and have a small footprint.
Eine weitere Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Vorrichtung zur Durchführung eines solchen Verfahrens anzugeben.Another object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for carrying out such a method.
Erfindungsgemäß werden diese Aufgaben durch die Merkmale von Patentanspruch 1 gelöst. Ein wesentlicher Aspekt der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, dass die Beaufschlagung des Werkstückes durch die Einzelstrahlen so erfolgt, dass punktuell eine ausreichend hohe Energie erzielt wird, um auch fest anhaftende Verunreinigungen abzutragen. Weiters ist wichtig, dass die einzelnen Strahlen in verschiedenen Richtungen auf das Werkstück gerichtet werden, um einerseits auch konkave oder schwer zugängliche Bereich des Werkstückes zu erreichen und andererseits, um die Ablösung von fest anhaftenden Rückständen zu erleichtern.According to the invention, these objects are achieved by the features of
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren schieben sich die einzelnen Strahlen wie eine Spachtel über das Werkstück und reinigen es von den anhaftenden Rückständen.In the method according to the invention, the individual beams slide over the workpiece like a spatula and clean it of the adhering residues.
Als Reinigungsmedium im Sinne der Erfindung ist primär Druckluft vorgesehen, da diese leicht verfügbar und kostengünstig ist. Für spezielle Anwendungen kann es aber auch angezeigt sein, andere Reinigungsmedien einzusetzen, wie beispielsweise Inertgase, wie etwa Stickstoff, wenn Fragen des Explosionsschutzes oder der Verhinderung von Korrosion wesentlich sind.As a cleaning medium according to the invention primarily compressed air is provided, since this is easily available and inexpensive. For special applications, however, it may also be appropriate to use other cleaning media, such as inert gases, such as nitrogen, when issues of explosion protection or prevention of corrosion are essential.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren kann besonders günstig eingesetzt werden, wenn der Druck des Reinigungsmediums zwischen 0,5 bar und 10 bar, vorzugsweise zwischen 0,9 bar und 8 bar beträgt.The process of the invention can be used particularly favorably if the pressure of the cleaning medium is between 0.5 bar and 10 bar, preferably between 0.9 bar and 8 bar.
Eine weitere besonders begünstigte Ausführungsvariante des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens sieht vor, dass das Werkstück relativ zur Reinigungskammer bewegt wird. Auf diese Weise ist es möglich, alle Bereich des Werkstückes zuverlässig einer Reinigung zu unterziehen und dadurch eine Materialverschleppung in den jeweilig nächsten Bearbeitungsschritt zuverlässig zu verhindern. In einer ersten Ausführungsvariante des Verfahrens, das eine Relativbewegung vorsieht, wird das Werkstück im Inneren der Reinigungskammer gedreht. Bei relativ kompakten Werkstücken, wie etwas Zylinderköpfen oder dergleichen, ist es auf diese Weise möglich, eine Relativbewegung des Werkstückes innerhalb einer Reinigungskammer zu bewirken, deren Abmessungen nicht wesentlich größer als die des Werkstückes sind. Besonders günstig ist es dabei, wenn eine erste Gruppe von Einzelstrahlen in einem Winkel gegen die Drehrichtung eine zweite Gruppe von Einzelstrahlen in einer Richtung in Richtung der Drehachse und eine dritte Gruppe von Einzelstrahlen in Drehrichtung auf das Werkstück gerichtet werden. Es hat sich herausgestellt, dass durch eine solche Ausbildung eine besonders günstige Reinigungswirkung erzielt werden kann. Zusätzlich zu dieser Neigung können die Einzelstrahlen auch noch in einem Winkel gegenüber der Normalebene zur Drehachse geneigt sein, um schwerer zugängliche Bereiche des Werkstückes zu erfassen.Another particularly advantageous embodiment variant of the method according to the invention provides that the workpiece is moved relative to the cleaning chamber. In this way, it is possible to reliably subject all areas of the workpiece to cleaning, thereby reliably preventing material entrainment in the respective next processing step. In a first embodiment of the method, which provides a relative movement, the workpiece is rotated inside the cleaning chamber. In relatively compact workpieces, such as some cylinder heads or the like, it is possible in this way to cause a relative movement of the workpiece within a cleaning chamber, the dimensions of which are not substantially greater than that of the workpiece. It is particularly advantageous if a first group of individual jets are directed in an angle against the direction of rotation a second group of individual jets in one direction in the direction of the axis of rotation and a third group of individual jets in the direction of rotation on the workpiece. It has been found that a particularly favorable cleaning effect can be achieved by such a design. In addition to this inclination, the individual beams may also be inclined at an angle relative to the normal plane to the axis of rotation in order to detect less accessible areas of the workpiece.
Alternativ zur Drehung des Werkstückes kann auch eine translatorische Bewegung vorgesehen sein. Dabei ist vorzugsweise vorgesehen, dass eine erste Gruppe von Einzelstrahlen in einen Winkel gegen die Bewegungsrichtung eine zweite Gruppe von Einzelstrahlen senkrecht zur Bewegungsrichtung und eine dritte Gruppe von Einzelstrahlen in einem Winkel in Bewegungsrichtung auf das Werkstück gerichtet werden. Grundsätzlich kann die Relativbewegung der oben beschriebenen Art durch eine Bewegung des Werkstückes gegenüber der Reinigungskammer oder gegenüber von Düsen zur Erzeugung der Strahlen erfolgen oder aber auch durch eine Bewegung der Reinigungskammer bzw. der Düsen gegenüber dem Werkstück.Alternatively to the rotation of the workpiece, a translatory movement may also be provided. It is preferably provided that a first group of individual jets are directed at an angle to the direction of movement of a second group of individual beams perpendicular to the direction of movement and a third group of individual jets at an angle in the direction of movement of the workpiece. Basically, the relative movement of the type described above by a movement of the workpiece relative to the cleaning chamber or against nozzles for generating the jets done or by a movement of the cleaning chamber or the nozzle relative to the workpiece.
Es ist auch möglich, Sacklöcher oder Gewindebohrungen besonders intensiv zu reinigen, indem eine oder mehrere Düsen in diese eingeführt, in ihnen bewegt, unter Umständen kurz angehalten und wieder herausbewegt werden.It is also possible to clean blind holes or threaded holes particularly intensely by one or more nozzles inserted into this, moved in them, may be briefly stopped and moved out again.
Eine besondere Vereinfachung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens wird dadurch erzielt, dass das Reinigungsmedium frei aus der Reinigungskammer ausströmt. Auf diese Weise kann auf eine Absaugung oder dergleichen verzichtet werden.A particular simplification of the method according to the invention is achieved in that the cleaning medium flows freely out of the cleaning chamber. In this way, can be dispensed with a suction or the like.
Weiters betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung eine Vorrichtung zur Reinigung von Werkstücken von anhaftenden Arbeitsmedien und/oder Arbeitsrückständen mit einer Reinigungskammer und mit Mitteln zum Einbringen eines gasförmigen Reinigungsmediums. Zur Erfüllung der oben beschriebenen Aufgaben ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass die Mittel zum Einbringen eines gasförmigen Reinigungsmediums als Düsen ausgebildet sind, die mindestens in drei Gruppen angeordnet sind, und dass die Düsen der mindestens drei Gruppen in unterschiedlichen Winkeln auf das Werkstück gerichtet sind. Wie oben beschrieben, können mit der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung nicht nur Lärmemissionen und eine Verunreinigung der Arbeitsluft vermieden werden, sondern es können auch mit relativ geringem Aufwand Materialverschleppungen selbst dann vermieden werden, wenn fest anhaftende Rückstände vorliegen.Furthermore, the present invention relates to a device for cleaning workpieces of adhering working media and / or work residues with a cleaning chamber and means for introducing a gaseous cleaning medium. To fulfill the above-described objects, it is provided according to the invention that the means for introducing a gaseous cleaning medium are designed as nozzles, which are arranged in at least three groups, and that the nozzles of the at least three groups are directed at different angles on the workpiece. As described above, not only noise emissions and contamination of the working air can be avoided with the device according to the invention, but it can even with relatively little effort material entrainment be avoided even if there are firmly adhering residues.
Ein besonders kostengünstiger Betrieb der Vorrichtung wird erreicht, wenn die Düsen als Druckluftdüsen ausgebildet sind.A particularly cost-effective operation of the device is achieved when the nozzles are designed as compressed air nozzles.
Der konstruktive Aufbau der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist besonders günstig, wenn die Düsen einer Gruppe auf mindestens einem gemeinsamen Verteilerrohr angeordnet sind. Diese Ausbildung ermöglicht einen einfachen Umbau der Vorrichtung, wenn diese auf einen neuen Typ von zu reinigenden Werkstücken umgebaut werden soll. Eine weitere Vereinfachung der Umrüstung wird dadurch erzielt, dass die Düsen einstellbar ausgeführt sind.The structural design of the device according to the invention is particularly advantageous when the nozzles of a group are arranged on at least one common manifold. This design allows a simple conversion of the device, if this is to be converted to a new type of workpieces to be cleaned. A further simplification of the conversion is achieved in that the nozzles are made adjustable.
Eine erste bevorzugte Ausführungsvariante der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung sieht eine Einrichtung zu Herstellung einer Relativbewegung zwischen dem Werkstück und den Düsen vor. Diese Relativbewegung kann wie oben beschrieben rotatorisch oder translatorisch sein. Zur Herstellung der Relativbewegung sind verschiedene Varianten möglich. So kann einerseits das Werkstück innerhalb der Reinigungskammer bewegt werden. Andererseits kann das Werkstück in der Reinigungskammer fest gelagert sein, wobei jedoch die Düsen über das Werkstück bewegt werden. Schließlich ist es möglich, dass die Reinigungskammer auf eine Fördereinrichtung zur Förderung von Werkstücken absenkbar oder in der Form eines Tunnels, der von den Werkstücken durchlaufen wird, ausgebildet ist.A first preferred embodiment variant of the device according to the invention provides a device for producing a relative movement between the workpiece and the nozzles. This relative movement can be rotational or translatory, as described above. Various variants are possible for producing the relative movement. So on the one hand, the workpiece can be moved within the cleaning chamber. On the other hand, the workpiece may be fixedly mounted in the cleaning chamber, but the nozzles are moved over the workpiece. Finally, it is possible for the cleaning chamber to be designed so that it can be lowered onto a conveyor for conveying workpieces or in the form of a tunnel through which the workpieces pass.
Vorzugsweise sind im Inneren der Reinigungskammer Gitterstrukturen vorgesehen, um aufgewirbelten Sprühnebel und Flüssigkeitsteilen aufzufangen und abzuleiten. Grundsätzlich besteht die Gefahr, dass sich der Sprühnebel, der sich aus den weggeblasenen Rückständen bildet, am Werkstück niederschlägt und dieses erneut verunreinigt. Weiters ist es möglich, dass einzeine Fiüssigkeitströpfchen, die vom Werkstück weggeblasen werden, an den Wänden der Reinigungskammer abprallen und wieder auf das Werkstück zurückgeschleudert werden. Das Auftreten dieser Effekte kann die erforderliche Behandlungsdauer des Werkstückes in unerwünschter Weise vergrößern und die Reinigungsleistung verringern. Um dies zu vermeiden, sind die oben beschriebenen Gitter vorgesehen, an denen der Sprühnebel anhaftet und größere Tropfen bildet, so dass der Sprühnebel nicht mehr zu Werkstück zurückkehrt. Weiters wird auf diese Weise ein Zurückprallen von wegspritzenden Rückstandstropfen sicher verhindert.Preferably, grid structures are provided in the interior of the cleaning chamber in order to collect and dissipate fluidized spray and liquid parts. In principle, there is a risk that the spray, which is formed from the blown-off residues, precipitates on the workpiece and this contaminated again. Furthermore, it is possible for any liquid droplets blown away from the workpiece to bounce off the walls of the cleaning chamber and be thrown back onto the workpiece. The occurrence of these effects may be the required treatment duration of the Increase workpiece undesirably and reduce the cleaning performance. To avoid this, the above-described grids are provided to which the spray adheres and forms larger drops, so that the spray no longer returns to the workpiece. Furthermore, a rebound of wegspritzenden residue is reliably prevented in this way.

Die Vorrichtung der Fig. 1 und Fig. 2 besteht aus einer Reinigungskammer 1 mit einem Deckel 1a, in der ein Werkstück 2 gelagert ist. Seitlich des Werkstückes 2 sind jeweils drei als Verteilerrohre ausgebildete Blasleisten 3a, 3b, 3c vorgesehen, die mit einer Vielzahl von Düsen 4 versehen sind. Das Werkstück 2 ist von Aufnahmen 5 gehalten, die drehbar in der Reinigungskammer 1 angeordnet sind und von einem Motor 6 angetrieben sind, um das Werkstück 2 um eine waagrechte Achse 8 in der Richtung des Pfeils 7 zu drehen. Auf ersten Verteilerrohren 3a ist jeweils eine erste Gruppe 4a von Düsen 4 vorgesehen, die entgegen der Drehrichtung 7 auf das Werkstück 3 gerichtet sind. Eine zweite Gruppe 4b von Düsen 4 auf zweiten Verteilerrohren 3b ist in Richtung der Achse 8 ausgerichtet. Eine dritte Gruppe 4c von Düsen 4 auf Verteilerrohren 3c ist in einem Winkel in Richtung der Drehrichtung 7 auf das Werkstück 2 gerichtet. Auf diese Weise werden auch Ausnehmungen, Bohrungen, hinterschnittene Bereich oder dergleichen des Werkstücks 2 zuverlässig gereinigt.The device of FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 consists of a
Im unteren Bereich der Reinigungskammer 1 ist eine Ausströmöffnung 9 vorgesehen, durch die das Reinigungsmedium zusammen mit dem abgeblasenen Arbeitsmedium ausströmen kann.In the lower region of the
Drucklufterzeuger 11 versorgen über Verteilungsleitungen 12 die einzelnen Verteilerrohre 3a, 3b, 3c. Selbstverständlich können bestehende Druckluftnetze entsprechend genutzt werden.
In Fig. 3 ist der Aufbau einer Blasleiste 3 in vergrößertem Maßstab dargestellt. Die Blasleiste 3 besteht aus einem kastenförmigen Grundkörper 10, in dem eine Vielzahl von Düsen 4 eingeschraubt ist. Die Ausströmrichtung der Düsen 4 ist einstellbar, um eine Anpassung an das jeweilige Werkstück 3 leicht und schnell vornehmen zu können.In Fig. 3, the construction of a
Fig. 4 zeigt die Blasleiste von Fig. 3 im Detail. Der Grundkörper 10 besitzt einen Innenraum 14, in dem die Druckluft zugeführt wird. An der Oberseite 16 ist eine Vielzahl von Schraubnippeln 15 vorgesehen, die Ausströmöffnungen 17 mit Achsen 15a aufweisen. Auf den Schraubnippeln 15 sind Düsen 4 aufgesetzt, die aus einem kalottenförmigen Halteabschnitt 18, einem Rohrabschnitt 19 und einer Düsenspitze 20 bestehen, in dem mehrere Düsenöffnungen 21 vorgesehen sind, um eine Mehrlochdüse zu bilden. Die austretenden Strahlen sind mit 22 angedeutet. Die Düsen 4 sind durch Überwurfmuttern 23 schwenkbar gehalten und können auf diese Weise nach Bedarf eingestellt und an das jeweils zu reinigende Werkstück angepasst werden.Fig. 4 shows the blow bar of Fig. 3 in detail. The
Zur Vereinfachung der Darstellung ist in der Fig. 4 nur eine Düse 4 eingezeichnet. In der Praxis werden die Schraubnippel 15 teilweise durch nicht dargestellte Verschlüsse verschlossen, wenn an der betreffenden Stelle keine Düse erforderlich ist. Die Achse 24a der Düse 4 aus der ersten Gruppe 4a ist in einem Winkel 25a von 25° zur Achse 15a geneigt, wobei die Neigung gegen die Bewegungsrichtung des Werkstücks, die mit dem Pfeil 27 angedeutet ist.To simplify the illustration, only one
Die Achse 24b der nicht dargestellten Düsen 4 der zweiten Gruppe fällt mit der Achse 15a zusammen, und die Achse 24c der dritten Gruppe 4c ist in einem Winkel 25c von 25° zur Achse 15a geneigt, wobei die Neigung in Bewegungsrichtung des Werkstücks erfolgt.The
Zusätzlich zu der oben beschriebenen Neigung in oder gegen die Bewegungsrichtung kann eine weitere Neigung senkrecht dazu, also um eine in der Zeichenebene liegende Achse 26a, die senkrecht auf die Achse 24a ist, vorliegen.In addition to the above-described inclination in or against the direction of movement, there may be a further inclination perpendicular thereto, ie about an
Fig. 5 zeigt eine Düsenspitze 20 einer Düse 4 im Detail. Neben einer zentralen Düsenöffnung 21a sind weitere schlitzförmige Düsenöffnungen 21b radial zwischen Leitrippen 28 angeordnet.Fig. 5 shows a
Fig. 6 zeigt eine Düse 4 von vorne, bei der mehrere Düsenöffnungen 21c nebeneinander angeordnet sind.Fig. 6 shows a
In Fig. 7 und Fig. 8 ist eine weitere Ausführungsvariante einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung dargestellt. Die Reinigungskammer 1 ist dabei in Form einer Haube ausgebildet, die über eine Hebevorrichtung 12 auf ein Förderband 13 absenkbar ist, auf dem das Werkstück 2 transportiert wird. Ähnlich wie bei der oben beschriebenen Vorrichtung sind in der Reinigungskammer 1 Verteilerrohre 3a, 3b, 3c vorgesehen, die mit Düsen 4 ausgestattet sind, die gegen, senkrecht und in Förderrichtung orientiert sind. Bei dieser Ausführungsvariante erfolgt die Reinigung des Werkstückes 2 während des Transportes des Werkstückes 2 auf dem Förderband 13, das somit die erwünschte Relativbewegung zwischen dem Werkstück 2 und den Düsen 4 bewirkt.In Fig. 7 and Fig. 8 shows a further embodiment of a device according to the invention is shown. The
Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung kann in praktisch allen bestehenden Bearbeitungslinien eingesetzt werden. Sie ist im Aufbau einfach und unkompliziert und bedarf nach einer richtigen Justierung praktisch keiner Kontrolle oder Überprüfung. Die Vorrichtung benötigt wenig Energie, da die Abblasvorgänge so eingestellt werden können, dass sie nur so lange dauern, wie für eine rasche und effektive Reinigung erforderlich ist. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Anlage wird die Emission von gesundheitsgefährlichen Aerosolen verhindert und die Lärmentwicklung kann in großem Umfang vermieden werden. Die Werkstücke sind in kürzester Zeit absolut sauber und frei von Rückständen.The device according to the invention can be used in virtually all existing processing lines. It is simple in construction and uncomplicated and requires a proper adjustment virtually no control or review. The device requires little energy because the blow-off operations can be adjusted to last only as long as required for rapid and effective cleaning. The inventive system prevents the emission of harmful aerosols and the noise can be avoided on a large scale. The workpieces are absolutely clean in no time and free from residues.
