Laser cleaning of tire molds

• Kuka robot – a robot responsible for manipulating tire molds during the cleaning process
• Laser source – a device that generates the laser beam necessary for precision cleaning of tire molds
• Galvo cleaning head – a precision head that directs the laser beam onto the mold surface to be cleaned
• Fume extraction unit – a system that extracts the fumes generated during the cleaning process, ensuring a clean and safe working environment
• Laser safety cell – a chamber that protects against laser radiation, ensuring operator safety

• Positioner with clamping Station 1 – device for accurate positioning of tire molds in the first work station
• Control panel – central control panel to manage and monitor the entire cleaning process
• Positioner with clamping Station 2 – Device for accurate positioning of tire molds in the second workstation
• Safety light barriers – optical safety devices that automatically stop system operation if the safety zone is violated

• Kuka robot – a robot responsible for manipulating tire molds during the cleaning process
• Galvo cleaning head – a precision head that directs a laser beam onto the mold surface to be cleaned
• Fume extraction unit – a system to extract the fumes generated during the cleaning process, ensuring a clean and safe working environment
• Laser safety cell – a chamber that protects against laser radiation, ensuring operator safety
• Loading and unloading chart Station 1 – shows loading and unloading data for tire molds at the first station
• Loading and unloading chart Station 2 – presents data on loading and unloading of tire molds in the second station
• Control panel – central control panel to manage and monitor the entire cleaning process

• Pulsed fiber lasers and 2D and 3D scanning heads
• Fast and stable process

• No damage to the mold surface
• Coding option after cleaning

• Laser safety chamber – provides protection for the operator from direct contact with the laser beam
• Laser safety glass – serves to protect against laser radiation while providing process observability
• Loading and unloading charts – presents data on the mold loading and unloading process
• Master controller – a central control unit for the entire process to monitor and manage operations
• Fume extraction unit – a system for extracting fumes generated during the cleaning process, ensuring a safe and clean working environment

• Scanner head – used to accurately scan tire molds before and after the cleaning process
• Laser source – generates the laser beam used for precision cleaning of the molds
• Kuka robot – a robot that manipulates the tire molds in the cell, ensuring the accuracy and efficiency of the cleaning process
• Security light barriers – provide security by automatically stopping the process if unauthorized access is detected
• Security fences – physical barriers to prevent accidental access to the work area

• Tire mold – consists of various segments and sidewalls that must be thoroughly cleaned to ensure the quality of the tires produced
• Segments – individual parts of the mold that can be cleaned individually. They are shown in the diagram as separate units placed inside the mold
• Sidewalls –side parts of the mold that also need cleaning
• Station 1/2 – both stations can work with both segments and mold sidewalls, this process ensures comprehensive and thorough cleaning of all tire mold components

Applications:

• Passenger cars – the system is suitable for cleaning tire molds used in the production of tires for warp cars
• Light trucks – the cell can be used to clean tire molds used in tire production for light trucks
• Trucks – the system is also compatible with tire molds for trucks, allowing the cleaning of large and heavy fom
