Definitions
- the invention describes a - preferably automatic method for determining the hydrophilicity of a surface at one or more points.
- the wettability of a surface with water can be determined at one or more points.
- this can be used to control the success of a hydrophilizing treatment of plastic surfaces, for example before painting them with water-based paints.
- the method is particularly suitable for checking the result of cleaning the solid surface, hydrophobic surface impurities such as fats or oils being removed. The more hydrophilic the surface has become as a result of cleaning, i.e. the greater the mean coverage of the surface with water after cleaning, the more completely the hydrophobic impurities have been removed from the surface.
- the invention makes it possible, for example, to check the success of cleaning objects made of metal, plastic, glass and / or ceramic, for example in the course of the manufacture or processing of such parts. Furthermore, the invention is suitable, for example, for checking the success of cleaning dishes and / or trays in continuous cleaning systems.
- the invention is particularly in the field of cleaning hard surfaces in industrial production processes.
- the invention relates to metallic surfaces which are coated with anti-corrosion oils or with oils which facilitate shaping processes such as, for example, rolling, forming, drawing, cold extrusion or machining.
- the invention relates to that part of an industrial production chain in which this oil is to be at least largely removed from the surfaces by cleaning in order to subsequently subject the surfaces to further treatment such as chemical conversion (conversion treatment) or coating.
- the conversion treatment can be, for example, layer-forming or non-layer-forming phosphating, chromating, anodizing or treatment with solutions which contain transition metal ions and / or simple and / or complex-bound fluorides and / or their acids.
- a coating is the coating with organic polymers or with those organic substances which crosslink when heated and / or when irradiated with infrared, visible or ultraviolet radiation with polymer formation (for example a coating), or the coating with metallic layers, for example a coating with metallic zinc, nickel, chrome, aluminum or with alloys, each consisting of at least 50% of one of the elements mentioned.
- Cleaning is shown by the fact that the surface after cleaning is so hydrophilic that the water film on the surface after cleaning is within a predetermined time interval, for example between 10 seconds and 2
- a surface that has been successfully cleaned with an aqueous cleaning solution is therefore covered with a uniform film of water after cleaning.
- infrared radiation is the section of the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation that follows the long-wave limit of the sensitivity of the human eye at around 760 nm.
- the infrared radiation goes in at wavelengths in the range of about 1 mm Microwave radiation over. In the narrower sense, the wavelength range between approximately 760 and approximately 15000 nm can be referred to as infrared radiation. Wavelengths in the area of the so-called near infrared radiation are particularly suitable for the quantitative determination of water.
- the invention relates to a method for controlling the hydrophilicity of a solid surface after a hydrophilizing treatment, wherein the surface is wetted with water, irradiated with infrared radiation, the intensity of the infrared radiation reflected from the surface is measured at a predetermined wavelength or at several predetermined wavelengths and from the measured intensity (if necessary converted into absorption) determines the average coverage of the surface with water. This measurement is preferably carried out in a time interval between about 10 seconds and about 2 minutes after wetting the surface with water.
- infrared radiation is preferably used at a predetermined wavelength or a plurality of predetermined wavelengths in the range between about 760 and about 2800 nm.
- predetermined wavelengths preference is given to choosing those predetermined wavelengths at which water has a particularly strong absorption. Accordingly, it is preferred to measure the intensity of the infrared radiation reflected back from the surface at one or more predetermined wavelengths in the range from 1430, 1900 and / or 2720 nm.
- sources of infrared radiation of suitable wavelength By means of several radiation sources, which are arranged around the measuring element for measuring the reflected infrared radiation, it is possible, if necessary, to achieve a particularly uniform irradiation of the surface section whose coating with water is to be measured. This prevents or at least reduces falsifications caused by shadowing.
- the size of the measuring spot on the surface depends on the one hand on the distance of the measuring element from the surface and on the other hand on its opening angle. A larger area of the surface is detected the further the element is from the surface.
- the measurement is preferably carried out on a reflective surface such that the surface is irradiated with infrared radiation at an angle of about 75 ° and the
- the average coverage of the surface with water for example as the mass of the water per m 2 of surface or as the average layer thickness of the water film. Rather, it is generally sufficient to determine whether the intensity of the infrared radiation reflected from the surface after absorption of part of the infrared radiation by the water adhering to the surface is of a magnitude that is typical for a completely wettable surface by comparison with readily wettable standard samples .
- the procedure is preferably such that the average coverage of the surface with water is determined by comparing the intensity of the infrared radiation reflected from the surface at at least one predetermined wavelength with the intensity of the infrared radiation reflected from a standard surface wetted with water at the predetermined wavelength. It is of course desirable to examine the standard surface and the surface to be tested under the same measuring conditions (intensity of the infrared radiation source, distance from the radiation source and measuring element from the surface). Furthermore, it is recommended to use the same material as the standard surface as for the surface to be examined.
- the method is therefore suitable for determining the average coverage of a selected area of a surface with water.
- the absorption of the surface suitable for infrared radiation is stronger, the more completely the selected area is covered with a water film. Tearing open the water film due to insufficient hydrophilicity (poor cleaning) reduces the absorption of wavelengths suitable for infrared radiation and thus increases the intensity of the reflected infrared radiation Wavelength.
- the result of a cleaning step can therefore be checked on the one hand by determining the percentage to which a selected section of a surface is covered with a water film or the average thickness of the water film.
- the intensity of the infrared radiation reflected from different locations on the surface can be measured and compared with one another. This makes it possible to determine whether different, corresponding locations on the surface are differently hydrophilic and are therefore cleaned to different extents.
- the method is suitable for determining the uniformity of the cleaning result at different points on the surface.
- a variant of the method according to the invention is characterized in that differences in the hydrophilicity of a surface are determined at different locations by irradiating the different locations on the surface with infrared radiation, the intensity of the infrared radiation reflected from the different locations on the surface at a predetermined wavelength or at measures several predetermined wavelengths and compares the intensities of the infrared radiation reflected back from the different locations on the surface.
- differences in the hydrophilicity of a surface are determined at different locations by irradiating the different locations on the surface with infrared radiation, the intensity of the infrared radiation reflected from the different locations on the surface at a predetermined wavelength or at measures several predetermined wavelengths and compares the intensities of the infrared radiation reflected back from the different locations on the surface.
- one expediently selects surfaces which are inclined at least so far relative to the horizontal that water can run off from hydrophobic regions of the surface.
- the surface should at least not be exactly horizontal.
- the surface is inclined by an angle of> 10 ° to the horizontal in the period between the wetting with water and the measurement of the infrared radiation reflected from the surface. Furthermore, it is advisable to always let approximately the same time elapse between wetting with water and carrying out the measurement.
- the method according to the invention can be used, for example, to control the success of a hydrophilizing surface treatment of plastics (for example treatment with strong chemical oxidizing agents, with a plasma or with ionizing radiation). If this hydrophilizing treatment is not carried out using an aqueous solution, it is necessary for the process according to the invention to wet the surface with water. If the process according to the invention is carried out in order to control the success of cleaning the surface with an aqueous cleaning solution, the cleaning process itself can represent the wetting step. Accordingly, the surface is wetted with water in this case by cleaning it with an aqueous cleaning solution.
- chemical conversion conversion treatment
- the introductory part of this disclosure has already explained what is meant by “chemical conversion” or “coating”, for example can be understood.
- the method can therefore be used in particular in the production of coated strip steel, in vehicle construction and in the household appliance industry.
- the surface in question is the surface of a vehicle, for example a motor vehicle, or the surface of a vehicle part that is phosphated after cleaning.
- layer-forming phosphating processes are carried out, for example the currently low-zinc phosphating process.
- the method is carried out on motor vehicle bodies which are cleaned after assembly and then phosphated, it can be provided that the method according to the invention is carried out at several points on the vehicle body. It can be determined whether the cleaning solution works equally well on all parts of the vehicle body. This can be particularly important if different vehicle parts - as is quite common - are made from different materials from possibly different manufacturers, and these different materials can be coated with different oils.
- the method according to the invention preferably provides for the results of the determination of the hydrophilicity to be stored in such a way that the reference to the controlled vehicle or vehicle part is retained.
- bar codes can be attached to the transport devices for the vehicles or vehicle parts, for example, which are used to identify the vehicle or vehicle part just measured. In the event of later complaints, it can then be understood how the cleaning result for the vehicle or vehicle part concerned was.
- the hydrophilicity of which is to be determined to the measuring element for infrared radiation
- two cases can be distinguished: It can be provided that during the measuring period the surface does not move relative to the measuring element that measures the intensity of the infrared radiation ; however, it can also be provided that during the measuring period the surface moves relative to the measuring element which measures the intensity of the infrared radiation.
- the components or the metal strips move more or less uniformly through the individual processing zones. If you do not want the measured surface section to move relative to the measuring element while the measurement is being carried out, it is therefore necessary for the measuring element to move at the same speed in the same direction as the section of the surface to be examined.
- the surface moves relative to the measuring element that measures the intensity of the infrared radiation while the measurement is being carried out.
- the measuring element is firmly mounted and the component whose surface hydrophilicity is to be checked moves past the measuring element.
- the measurement period which can usually be in the range of a few seconds (approximately 1 to approximately 10 seconds)
- a larger section of the surface is thereby detected than corresponds to the actual measurement spot. This provides information about the average water occupancy of the surface section that moves past the measuring element during the measuring period.
- the time in which the surface of a component, for example an automobile body, runs past the measuring element is divided into different measuring sections, it can be compared whether the same coverage with water is found in each measuring section (which corresponds to a different section of the surface). This also enables irregularities in the cleaning result to be determined.
- the determination of the hydrophilicity of the surface is carried out automatically under program control and the result of the determination is output locally or at a remote location or is stored on a data carrier for further processing and / or in each case after the result of the determination, a warning signal is generated locally or at a remote location and / or an automatic determination of the composition of the cleaning solution used for cleaning the surfaces is initiated, provided that the hydrophilizing treatment of the surface consists in cleaning it.
- the method according to the invention serves to control a hydrophilizing treatment of a surface, for example one
- the method according to the invention can therefore be used in a continuous production process without human labor being bound for its implementation.
- the method can be used to check the result of a cleaning step, i. H. to determine how completely a surface is wettable after cleaning.
- the result can be output either locally or at a remote location. It can also be used for further processing - for example, for recognizing trends or as
- a warning signal can be generated locally or at a remote location. This can be an optical or an acoustic signal or a display on a screen.
- an examination of the composition of the cleaning solution can be initiated, which can possibly lead to components of the cleaning solution being automatically added or that
- the invention is particularly suitable for determining the wettability of a surface after the surface has been cleaned with a cleaning solution. Which of the cleaning solutions known from the prior art is used for this is irrelevant for the implementation of the method according to the invention.
- remote location is understood to mean a location that is not in direct or at least in optical contact with the control system that controls the method according to the invention.
- the remote location can represent, for example, a central process control system that is part of an overall method Surface treatment of, for example, metal parts as a subtask controls the result of the cleaning step and, if necessary, gives instructions for checking the cleaning solution.
- the remote location can also be a central control room from which the overall process is controlled and controlled and which, for example, takes place in a different room than that Detergent bath, the cleaning performance of which is to be checked.
- a remote location can also be a place outside the factory in which the cleaning step is carried out. This makes it possible for specialists to check the success of the cleaning step If necessary, initiate measures to regenerate the cleaning solution without being in close proximity to the cleaning solution. As a result, it is much less necessary for special personnel to be at the location of the cleaning solution.
- the assignment of the measurement result to the checked workpiece is recorded and saved on a data carrier. This can be done, for example, by providing the workpiece with a characteristic marking, for example with a bar code, by means of whose automatic reading the currently checked workpiece can be identified.
- control system for the method depending on the result of the control of the hydrophilicity of the surface, inherently checks and as a result thereof if necessary, measures are taken to regenerate the cleaning solution without human intervention.
- An inadequate cleaning result can be defined according to various predefined criteria: You can specify a tolerance range within which the average coverage of the cleaned surface with water should normally be. Furthermore, a control area can be specified in which the average water occupancy may only be in a predetermined, limited number of cases, for example based on the number of determinations carried out or on the time. If the average water occupancy is more frequently in the control area, the system takes one or more of the preselected measures. A trend analysis can be provided at the same time. As a result of this trend analysis, it can be provided that measures are initiated if the number of cases in which the mean water occupancy is in the control area increases over time. And finally, a lower limit for the average water occupancy can be set, below which one or more of the planned measures are automatically initiated.
- the control system automatically initiates the determination of one or more parameters of the cleaning solution.
- the control system can initiate a determination of the alkalinity, the surfactant content and / or the oil load in the cleaning solution or also several of these determinations. How these determinations can be carried out automatically is described, for example, in German patent applications 198 02 725, 198 14 500, 198 20 800 and 198 36 720.
- further measures such as, for example, re-metering components of the detergent solution can be carried out Processing or renewal are preferably initiated and carried out automatically.
- the measuring device used changes after predetermined time intervals, which can be, for example, in the range between one hour and one day, after a predetermined number of measurements, for example after every tenth to hundredth measurement, or when the results of two measurements deviate from each other by a predetermined minimum amount, even for functionality. This can reduce the risk of an alarm message or a more serious measure being initiated due to a malfunction of the measuring device.
- the result of the self-inspection of the measuring device is preferably recorded on a data carrier for a later inspection or for purposes of quality assurance.
- the test can be carried out, for example, by first placing a dry sample in the beam path of the measuring device, the quality of which corresponds to the workpieces examined.
- the infrared radiation scattered back from the surface of this test specimen provides the maximum value of the intensity or the minimum value of the absorption.
- one or more filters can be introduced into the beam path, which have a predetermined absorption capacity for infrared radiation.
- the measuring device checks whether it actually measures the expected absorption values (which of course must be stored in the control system of the system). If the measured absorption deviates from the expected value by the filters by a predetermined minimum amount, this indicates a malfunction of the measuring device.
- the control system for the method interrupts the further execution of the method until the measuring device has been checked.
- the method according to the invention therefore has the partial aspect that, largely independently of human intervention, on the one hand the success of a hydrophilizing surface treatment, in particular one
- the composition of the cleaning solution can be automatically checked and, as a result of this check, the cleaning solution can be supplemented with components or bath maintenance measures can be initiated for the cleaning solution.
- the information received and the information carried out during the period of application of the method according to the invention Measures are preferably stored on a data carrier and are available for the purposes of quality assurance, for later evaluation and for collecting information for the control system. As a result, the control system can be configured to be learnable.
- the method according to the invention thus increases production reliability on the one hand and reduces the manual effort for this on the other.
- the method according to the invention was checked on a continuous cleaning system for sample sheets (dimensions 10 ⁇ 20 cm), as are customary for checking surface treatment processes in automobile construction.
- Test sheets made of different materials were used, which are common in automobile construction: cold-rolled steel, hot-dip galvanized steel, aluminum, and phosphated steel.
- Radiation source for the infrared radiation and measuring element for the infrared radiation retroreflected by the sample sheets were positioned such that the moist sheets were transported past the radiation source and measuring element after cleaning.
- a tungsten halogen lamp served as the radiation source. It supplied infrared radiation in a wavelength range from 700 to 2000 nm.
- a lead sulfide detector served as a measuring element for the infrared radiation reflected back from the sample sheets.
- the intensity measurement was carried out at 1921 nm, the radiation of 1703 nm being used as the intensity reference.
- the respective wavelengths were selected using filters.
- Attenuation was essentially constant for sample sheets of one type of material.
- a poor cleaning result would have been recognizable in the case of individual sample sheets by the fact that a significantly lower attenuation of the infrared radiation reflected from the surface was found at the predetermined wavelength corresponding to a significantly lower average thickness of the water film. For example, this was the case with non-cleaned sheets
