The Automatic Dip Coating Line for Connector Busbars, Copper Busbars and Aluminum Busbars of Automotive Components is an automated coating processing equipment specially designed for the core components of automotive electrical systems - connector busbars, copper busbars and aluminum busbars. Its core function is to form a uniform and wear-resistant plastic insulation coating (common materials are PVC and PE) on the surface of the three types of metal conductor bars through the dip coating process. This coating provides insulation, corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance and resistance to mechanical impact, ensuring that the conductor bars can stably conduct current under the complex working conditions of high vibration, high humidity and high dust in automobiles. It is a key processing equipment for automotive electrical safety and component durability.
This production line realizes the whole-process automated operation without a lot of manual intervention, and its typical working process includes eight core links:
Automatic Loading and Positioning: Through a servo-driven chain conveyor system or robotic arm, the connector busbars, copper busbars and aluminum busbars of automotive components to be processed are accurately transported to the feeding station. The equipment is equipped with a visual recognition module, which can automatically distinguish conductor bars of different materials and specifications, and adjust the conveying speed and subsequent process parameters;
Pretreatment Cleaning: Successively passing through a degreasing tank (using alkaline degreaser to remove stamping oil and fingerprints on the surface of conductor bars), a pickling tank (using dilute sulfuric acid to treat the oxide layer of copper bars, and special oxide film removal agent for aluminum bars), and three water washing tanks (neutralization water washing, pure water washing and rinsing respectively) to completely remove residual chemicals and avoid affecting coating adhesion. The temperature and treatment time of each tank are automatically controlled by the PLC system;
Hot Air Drying: The cleaned conductor bars enter the drying furnace, where the temperature is controlled at 90-110℃. Uniform heating is achieved through a hot air circulation system to quickly remove surface moisture and ensure no bubbles in the coating during subsequent dip coating;
Preheating Activation: The dried conductor bars enter the preheating furnace, and the temperature is adjusted according to material differences (120-140℃ for copper bars, 100-120℃ for aluminum bars) to improve the surface activity of the conductor bars and enhance the bonding strength between the plastic coating and the metal surface;
Automatic Dip Coating: The preheated conductor bars are evenly immersed in the plastic coating tank by a lifting mechanism (the concentration and temperature of the coating solution are monitored in real time, with the concentration controlled at 25%-35% and the temperature at 40-50℃). The dip coating time and lifting speed are automatically adjusted according to the required coating thickness (usually 0.2-0.6mm) to ensure that the coating uniformly covers the surface and edges of the conductor bars;
Leveling and Trimming: The dipped conductor bars enter the leveling area, and through adjustable speed conveying and gentle air assistance, the excess coating solution on the surface is naturally leveled to avoid defects such as sagging and material accumulation;
High-Temperature Curing: The leveled conductor bars enter the curing furnace, and the furnace temperature is set according to the plastic material (160-180℃ for PVC, 180-200℃ for PE) with a curing time of 15-25 minutes. The plastic coating solution is fully melted, cross-linked and cured through hot air circulation to form a dense insulating film;
Cooling, Unloading and Inspection: The cured conductor bars enter a composite cooling channel of water cooling and air cooling to quickly cool down to room temperature. Then they are transported to the unloading station by the conveyor system. At the same time, the equipment is equipped with a laser thickness gauge and an appearance inspection camera to automatically detect the coating thickness and surface defects (such as pinholes and missing coating). Qualified products are automatically sorted to the finished product warehouse, and unqualified products are marked and rejected.
The core advantages of this production line are reflected in the following four aspects:
Strong Material Compatibility: It can process three types of conductor bars (connector busbars, copper busbars and aluminum busbars) at the same time. Through intelligent parameter switching, there is no need to replace molds or tanks, which adapts to the production needs of multiple varieties and small batches of automotive components;
Excellent Coating Performance: The whole process parameters are controlled automatically, the coating thickness error is ≤±0.05mm, the breakdown voltage is ≥28kV/mm, and the salt spray resistance test can reach more than 500 hours, which fully meets the strict electrical and environmental reliability standards of the automotive industry;
High Production Efficiency: A single production line can process 150-300 conductor bars per hour and supports 24-hour continuous operation. Compared with traditional semi-automatic equipment, the efficiency is increased by 3-4 times, which adapts to the large-scale mass production needs of automotive components;
Environmental Protection and Energy Saving: Equipped with a coating solution recycling system, the recovery rate of unused coating solution is over 96%, reducing raw material waste; the waste gas from the curing furnace is discharged up to the standard after activated carbon adsorption + catalytic combustion treatment, and the VOCs emission concentration is ≤30mg/m³; at the same time, a waste heat recovery device is adopted to use the waste heat of the curing furnace for the preheating furnace, reducing energy consumption by 20%-25%.
At present, this production line is widely used in the processing of electrical system components of new energy vehicles (pure electric, hybrid) and traditional fuel vehicles, such as the insulation coating treatment of key components such as battery pack connector busbars, motor controller copper busbars, and high-voltage distribution box aluminum busbars. It is one of the core equipment for the localized mass production of automotive electrical components.
