E-Shuttle: New Technology in Automotive Pretreatment and Ecoat - (PPT)

摘要

The E-Shuttle is the newest innovation in fully automated pretreatment and ecoat systems designed for the automotive industry. E-Shuttle transports car bodies through the process baths in pretreatment and electrocoating zones on individual trolleys. The E-Shuttle has three freely programmable axes; a horizontal axis, a lifting axis and a turning axis. These axes permit individually adjustable dipping curves and every conceivable mode of operation such as roof up, roof down or any position in between. Bodies are immersed in the baths by the combination of lifting and turning movement, with the result that they can be turned through 360° and even positioned completely vertical. The bodies can consequently be quickly flooded in the process baths and drained completely above them. This has a positive effect on bath carry out and chemical consumption. The innovative single electrified monorail carrier design provides a highly reliable, high throughput and very compact technical solution for the ecoating of car bodies.
