Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for electrophoretic (anodic and preferably cathodic) dip coating of small parts with an electrically conductive surface wettable by the paint, for.
  • small metal parts as well as small parts made of non-metals, in particular metallized small parts made of ceramic or thermostable organic polymeric materials, with water-dilutable paints, in particular with water-based paints and a device for implementing the method.
  • Electrophoretic dip coating is state of the art for hanging or racked goods; An example: the cataphoretic coating of body parts in the automotive industry.
  • the goods are cleaned (degreasing, pickling) with a layer to improve corrosion protection or to promote adhesion (e.g. phosphating and subsequent immersion in dilute chromic acid) and electrocoated.
  • the goods to be coated In electrophoretic dip coating, the goods to be coated must be brought to the same electrical potential of the corresponding electrode. No paint is deposited at the contact points between this electrode and the goods.
  • Frames are used to move the contacts between the frame, which serves as the electrode, and the goods in areas where unpainted areas can be accepted.
  • the electrophoretic dip coating of small parts is described in BE-PS-695 619. There, small parts are guided through an electric immersion bath using a conveyor belt. The conveyor belt has knobs and hooks which are intended to improve the mechanical contact of the small parts with the conveyor belt.
  • US Pat. No. 3,616,392 describes the electrophoretic dip coating of small parts, these small parts being transferred within an electro-dip bath to a first transport device with containers and from this to a second transport device with containers. Adhering gas bubbles are removed in this way, but complete painting is not possible.
  • DE-AS 22 32 162 describes the electrophoretic dip coating of small parts on a conveyor running through an electrodeposition bath. According to this method it is ensured that the small parts cannot move on the conveyor belt during the painting process. This state of the art does not eliminate the disadvantage of inadequate coating of the surfaces of small parts. In addition, there are difficulties with the continuous process management.
  • the object of the invention is a complete painting of small parts or bulk goods by electrophoresis. Good corrosion protection is to be achieved in this way.
  • this object can be achieved by changing the position of the small parts or bulk materials to be painted on their base in the electro-immersion bath. After one The previous contact points between the small parts and their base, or between the small parts with one another and / or contact electrodes, are accessible to the paint. Knowing the state of the art, which avoids a shift, it was not to be expected that the electrical contact through the insulating lacquer layer would be sufficient to enable the original contact points which were exposed after the change in position and were not yet lacquered to be lacquered.
  • the invention therefore relates to a method for electrophoretic dip coating of small parts and bulk materials with an electrically conductive surface by immersion in an aqueous immersion bath, electrophoretic paint deposition, removal from the immersion bath, rinsing and baking of the deposited lacquer coating, which is characterized in that
  • either the small parts to be painted or the bulk material to be painted is applied to a pad that can be switched as an electrode with high electrical conductivity and is immersed together with this in the electro-immersion bath and after deposition is again dipped together with the pad, the pad with the exception of Circuit as an electrode and the surfaces required for contacting the small parts or the bulk material is provided with an electrically insulating coating, and, in the electro-immersion bath, the contact surfaces between the small parts to be painted or the bulk material and the substrate connected as an electrode, as well as possible contact surfaces between the Small parts or within the bulk goods are changed at least once, or b) the small parts to be painted or the bulk material to be painted are applied to an electrically non-conductive base and immersed together with this in the electro-immersion bath and, after the deposition, immersed together with the underlay, contacting the small parts or the bulk material in the electro-immersion bath an electrode placed on the small parts or the bulk material from above, which is removed again at the latest before baking, at least the parts of the electrode immersed
  • a single-layer layer of the small parts is preferred, as a result of which good electrical contact between the individual small parts and their z. B. used as an electrode pad, indirect contacts over one or more small parts avoided and the paint inaccessible areas prevented by superimposed small parts.
  • the single-layer layer of the small parts during the rinsing process facilitates the effective removal of excess paint, and the single-layer layer in the stoving oven prevents the small parts from sticking together.
  • the small parts to be painted are transported on a conveyor belt as a base through the electrocoating bath.
  • An electrically conductive conveyor belt can be used, which is provided with an electrically insulating coating, with the exception of the surfaces required for switching as an electrode and for contacting the small parts.
  • This conveyor belt is used as an electrode.
  • paint is also deposited on such a conveyor belt. In this case, the conveyor belt should not be led into the stoving oven with the lacquered small parts, since the stoved lacquer can only be removed again with great effort.
  • the conveyor belt is preferably grounded. Only the bath liquid in the bath is under tension for electrophoretic dip painting. In this case, the necessary safety measures can be implemented with less effort than with a live conveyor belt.
  • a conveyor belt with an electrically non-conductive surface can be guided with the small parts on it through the electrocoating bath and then through the downstream rinsing device and through the baking oven, provided that the conveyor belt is thermally stable at the temperatures required for the baking process.
  • the belt speed is a parameter for setting the coating layer thickness.
  • the throughput rate of such a continuous coating system can be fine-tuned using the belt speed.
  • the order of magnitude of the throughput can be determined by designing the width of the conveyor belt.
  • the insertion and removal angles of the conveyor belt in the paint bath for example a maximum of 15 degrees, sliding of small parts and bulk goods on the conveyor belt can generally be prevented.
  • a conveyor belt with drivers is preferably used for small rolling parts, in particular such workpieces with rotationally symmetrical geometry, or for steeper insertion and removal angles of the painting belt.
  • Stationary or mobile belt guiding devices force the conveyor belt in the paint bath at certain points or brief changes in the conveying direction so that the small parts are relocated on the conveyor belt and the unpainted contact surfaces between the goods and the belt are changed.
  • the change of the contact surfaces can also be done by moving parts of an articulated conveyor belt against each other, or by sudden shocks.
  • Paint is dragged out of the immersion bath by the conveyor belt. This varnish can be easily removed before baking.
  • the non-coagulated paint portion can be easily removed by simply rinsing.
  • the small parts to be painted can be immersed in trays or in swivel drums, which each form the base, in the electrocoating bath.
  • the angle at which the container with the small parts can be pivoted, and the drum filling, are chosen so that the small parts change their position relative to one another or in the container during a pivoting process.
  • the transfer can be carried out under water.
  • these trays can also be used as electrodes.
  • these trays with the lacquered small parts can also be passed through the rinsing device and the baking oven if the trays are thermally stable at the temperatures required for the baking process.
  • this base is provided with a surface that is not wetted by the paint. For this purpose, changes in the position of the small parts on the support in the baking oven can be made.
  • the conveyor belt is guided on a certain path through the electric immersion bath by a lateral guide.
  • a stainless steel conveyor belt prevents corrosion products from getting into the paint bath.
  • the conveyor belt can be provided with an electrically insulating coating except for the belt surfaces required for through-contacting the conveyor belt and for contacting the small parts. To produce this electrically insulating coating, the conveyor belt can be electrophoretically coated and baked with the paint used.
  • a plane-parallel arrangement of the conveyor belt and counterelectrode creates similar conditions across the entire width of the belt and thus promotes the uniformity of the coating.
  • the electro-immersion bath and bath volume can be dimensioned significantly smaller, since the distance required for the paint circulation between the bath primer and paint bath in a plane-parallel arrangement also serves as a safety distance between the electrodes.
  • counter electrodes can be moved to adapt to the various small parts and to optimize the coating.
  • Synchronous running of the drive rollers before immersion and after exiting the electro-immersion bath enables a tension-free conveyor belt guide, which is indispensable for belt deflection by means of, for example, baffles.
  • the synchronization can e.g. B. can be realized by a coupled chain drive.
  • a base which is electrically conductive and has an electrically insulating coating, preferably made of the same lacquer on which the electrodeposition bath is based, in baked form, with only the points for contact with the bulk material and for switching as an electrode Do not have coating. For example, it can be ground down at these points.
  • an insulating base for example a completely coated one To use pad and to bring the small parts lying on this pad into contact with an electrode in the electro-immersion bath, for example by placing a flexible electrode, for example. This placement of the electrode or the contact can take place on a base which is designed as a conveyor belt or as a container, for example a tray.
  • the pad is conductive or electrically non-conductive, and regardless of whether it is a conveyor belt or container-shaped devices, the position of the small parts to be painted or the bulk material in the electro-immersion bath is changed, for example by sudden shock .
  • the electrodes inserted from above can be removed at the latest before entering the baking oven. All or part of the electrodes are provided with an electrically insulating coating, which is preferably the same lacquer (in baked form) as is used in the electro-immersion bath. The only exception to the coating are the areas of the electrodes required for contact with the small parts or the bulk material.
  • the small parts can either be relocated to another conveyor belt or to other trays on which the rinsing in the rinsing device and the baking of the paint take place in a baking oven. It is advantageous if the conveyor belt used for the baking or other trays have surfaces that are not wetted by the paint in the baking oven. It is favorable to change the position of the small parts or the bulk material on the further conveyor belt or the further trays in the baking oven at least once.
