Evolver 303 Dual Purge Robotic Atomizers - Introduction

INTRODUCTION

THE RANSBURG ELECTROSTATIC PROCESS

Thisprocessisamethodforelectrostaticallyapplying coatings to objects. A power supply produces a high voltage charge which is supplied to the applicator, creatinganelectrostaticfieldbetweentheapplicator and the target object. The target is electrostatically grounded through its support which may be either stationary or moving.

A regulated fluid system delivers coating material to the applicator, where it is atomized forming a spray mist. There, under the influence of the electrostatic field, the atomized coating becomes electrostatically charged. The charged particles are attracted to and deposited on the grounded target object. The forces between the charged particles and the target are sufficient to turn overspray around and deposit it on the back surface of the target. Therefore, a higher percentage of the spray is deposited.

EVOLVER™ 303 DUAL PURGE SOLVENTBORNE SPRAY APPLICATORS

TheEvolver303DualPurgeSprayAppli-catorsSystem will allow for the use of spray applicators or bell applicators with minimal required down-time during the switching process. This system can also operate as a spray applicator system only that later can be upgradedtoallowforbellapplicatorshaving"Unilink Technology"to be used. This system can allow a user currently possessing an RMA-303 bell system to use spray applicators as well, with minimal conversion required. Lastly, this system is a true dual purge system in that paint can be sprayed with full voltage on, while simultaneously color changing the second paint line. The Evolver 303 Dual Purge Solventborne Applicator line consists of both 60° and 90° single and dual-headed 100kV automatic electrostatic applicators. Developed for use on robot, the Evolver 303 Dual Purge spray applicator incorporates a unique 1/3 turn quick-disconnect spray head and a one piece slide over manifold cover, providing the user an efficient tool for the electrostatic application of coatings.

There are two single-head models of the Evolver 303 Dual Purge Applicators (see Figure 1). Each model differsintheapplicatortoaxisorientationofthespray head. These models are:

A12374-0XX 60° Single-Head

A12374-1XX 90° Single-Head

Twodual-headversionsoftheEvolver303DualPurge Applicator are also available (see Figure 1). The dualheaded applicators are primarily used where high volume fluid delivery is required. The dual-headed applicator is available in two different configurations as follows:

A12374-2XX 60° Dual-Head

A12374-3XX 90° Dual-Head

AA-08-01.1

Evolver 303 Dual Purge Robotic Atomizers - Introduction

The Evolver 303 Dual Purge Spray Applicator System consists of four major components:

1.Quick-Disconnect Spray Head

2.Applicator Head Mounting Block Assembly

3.Valve Manifold Assembly (Includes the High Voltage Cascade with a Quick-Disconnect Ring)

4.Rear Tubing Manifold Assembly (both English and Metric)

The spray head(s) and valve manifold contain the fluid, air, and high voltage passages. All fluid passagescontainstainlesssteeland/ornylonfittings, compatiblewithhalogenatedhydrocarbonsolvents. The robot manifold incorporates stainless steel fluid connections.

The high voltage cascade is entirely encapsulated withasolventresistantepoxy. Thiscascadegenerates voltages up to 100kV fed by a low voltage cable.

There are three sources for the high voltage supply to the Evolver 303 Dual Purge Applicators:

MicroPak™ Control Unit (LECU5004)

Stand-alone control/power supply unit (A10406)

MicroPakTM Control Unit (LECU5004-31)

The MicroPak Power Supply control unit provides a low voltage signal through the robot manifold to the spray applicator. The high voltage cascade located within the applicator converts the low voltage DC signal to a high voltage electrostatic output.

For applications that have the ability to control fan and atomization air remotely, the bleed style head is available.

APPLICATOR AND MANIFOLD ASSEMBLY

(See Figures 4 and 5)

The tubing, hose, and low voltage cable come bundled from the factory. Pull the bundle through the robot spacer plate and robot wrist carefully to prevent any cuts on the cable or hoses. Use the six

(6) socket head cap screws (76566-24C) included with the rear manifold tubing assembly to attach the rear manifold assembly ( A12283) to the robot spacer plate (see Table 1).

Connect each signal line as required per "Signal Identification Tables (Metric) Tubing Bundles" in the "Installation" section.

Rear Plate Assembly

The rear plate assembly is designed to be at ground potential when mounted to the robot plate component within the tubing bundle assembly. The air and fluid ports are compactly oriented for use in robotic applications. The interior air supplies are ported through the five (5) support rods and also directly tubed to the upper manifold assembly. On the exterior side of the rear plate, the ports are provided with o-ring seals so that the applicator can be quickly mated and secured to the robot plate

Robot Plate

The robot plate is a component of the tubing bundle assembly and intended to be permanently mounted to the robot. A wrist adapter is also available, which matches the robot's mounting configuration. The incoming air lines, fluid lines, low voltage cable, and fiberopticcableareconnectedtothefittingsprovided on the back of the robot plate. The rear plate of the applicatorassemblyissecuredtotherobotplatewith a threaded retaining ring.

Break-Away Feature (Optional)

The Evolver 303 dual purge can be converted to have a break-away feature, by replacing the five (5) stainless steel screws with five (5) special designed plastic screws (77524-00). This feature is meant to reduce the damage to the applicator, robot, etc. If a collisionoccurs,thefive(5)plasticbreak-awayscrews fail and the applicator will break free. This will leave the break-away ring and the mounting ring attached to the robot.

Power Supply and Controls

The high voltage cascade located inside the Evolver 303 dual purge is controlled by the MicroPak control unit. The low voltage ouput of the MicroPak is multiplied by the internal cascade to the high voltage level required. This eliminates the need for a high voltage cable. A low voltage cable interconnects the cascade and the MicroPak control. The MicroPak Eurocard format is designed to fit in a conventional 19-inch or 1-inch rack and requires a 24V power input at a maximum 3 amps. The MicroPak and the internal cascade will produce voltages up to 100,000VDC.

The MicroPak is designed to electronically limit current to provide safe operation in a spray booth. The voltage and current draw of the applicator are continuously displayed on the MicroPak control panel. Voltage and over-current limits are adjust-able on the front of the MicroPak. MicroPak internal safety circuits will shut down the system on over-current and cable faults.

With additional control modules, all of the functions of the Evolver 303 dual purge and MicroPak can be controlled by a programmable controller. A Serial Digital Module pneumatically controls the paint and dumpvalveslocatedontheapplicator. AnI/Omodule provides communication between these modules and the PLC.

The above modules are mounted in one 19-inch rack and interconnected through a common motherboard.

Robot Spacer Plate

The robot spacer plate is included with the robot manifold assembly to increase life of the tubing bundle. The extra spacing it provides increases the bend radius of the tubes and decreases the hose or cable stress at the connector.

There is only one way the spacer plate may be assembled to the mounting plate. The spacer plate has an alignment pin that may only engage in one hole position in the robot mount plate. This provides the final position to top dead center of the robot.

Six (6) robot spacer plates shown in Table 1 are available for this product.

LOW VOLTAGE CABLE INSTALLATIONS

(See Figures 6, 7, and 8)

A low voltage cable is provided to send power to the high voltage cascade in the applicator as well as sending important information during operation back to the MicroPak controls. One piece of the cable is a permanent length of approximately

72-inches (1.8 meters) from the robot plate end. The connecting cable can be ordered in various lengths depending on the distance required to reach from the robot arm to the MicroPak controller. The ends of the cables have a male and female quick disconnect end. This provides for a quick and easy removal of the cable at the robot plate if servicing or replacement is required.

It is important that the quick disconnect fitting be secured to a good ground source. The A12241-XX cable is supplied with a ground cable which can be secured to the bulkhead connector and the other end to a known ground source. The cable can also be grounded by attaching the bulkhead connector to a grounded bulkhead plate. The bulkhead plate can be no more than 1/8-inch (3.18mm) in thickness. The bracket should be made as in Figure 7 to hold the connector from turning. To mate the connectors, align the raised key section of the cable on the applicator end with the key groove of the cable that goes to the MicroPak. Push the male end into the mating connector until an audible click is heard. Tug oncabletoensurethatitislockedinplace. Toremove or disconnect the cable, pull back on the male connector shell and pull cable back at the same time. To remove this section from the robot plate, remove the applicator. Locate the set screw holding the flanged plastic 9 pin connector. Loosen with a 3/32" hex key wrench. Pull the cable out from the robot plate end. Install new cable in reverse direction, align the 9 pin connector with the alignment mark on the robot plate face and tighten set screw. Torque 5-10 lbs•in (0.56-1.13 Nm).

!W A R N I N G

>Cable connector shell must be electrically grounded. Electrical noise or other interference may result.

NOTE

> With the exception of fluid, dump, and bearing air/paint trigger, all other pilot and air supply lines should be bulkheaded and their diameters increased one nominal size. For example: atomization air should be increased to an 1/2" ID (8mm) from bulkhead plate to the volume booster.

NOTE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

> If the length of the fan or atomization air lines exceeds 30-ft. (10m), the lines must be upsized to 1/2" ID (12mm for metric).

NOTE

> For the dipswitch settings for the Evolver303dualpurge,referencethecurrent microPak service manual

NOTE

> Leave 12-24-inches (.30-.61m) of

extra length on all lines to prevent extreme tension being applied to these lines during robot movement. This increases tubing bundle life.
