Where do furniture factories usually use compressed gas?
Furniture factory compressed air application scenarios and Granklin air compressor solutions
1. Core application scenarios of compressed air in furniture factories
1. Pneumatic tool drive
- application device: Nail gun, pneumatic sander, engraving machine, spray gun, etc.
- functional requirements: Compressed air powers tools and ensures efficient and precise wood processing (e.g., punching, nailing, surface treatment).
- quality requirements: Stabilize the air pressure (usually 0.6-0.8MPa) and low particulate matter to avoid stuck tools or surface scratches.
2. Spraying and coating processes
- application scenarios: Furniture surface spraying (paint, water-based paint) requires compressed air to atomize the paint to form a uniform coating.
- critical needs:
- dryness: The dew point of compressed air must be ≤-20℃ to avoid moisture causing foaming of the coating.
- cleanliness: Oil content ≤0.01mg/m³, preventing oil from contaminating the paint surface and affecting gloss and adhesion.
- Granklin Advantage: Oil-free design ensures pure spray air and avoids paint defects.
3. Dust removal and cleaning systems
- application scenarios: Wood chips and dust generated during wood processing need to be removed through compressed air purging or vacuum cleaning systems.
- functional requirements: High-pressure airflow cleans the interior of equipment or countertops to keep the environment clean and reduce fire risks.
- technical requirements: Compressed air needs to be efficiently filtered to avoid secondary dust pollution.
4. Packaging and transportation
- application scenarios: Pneumatic conveyor belts, vacuum cups and other equipment rely on compressed air for material handling and packaging.
- stability requirements: Pressure fluctuation ≤±0.05MPa, ensuring conveying speed and positioning accuracy.
- energy-saving needs: The variable frequency air compressor can be automatically adjusted according to the air consumption to reduce energy consumption.
2. Quality requirements of furniture factories for compressed air
1. Oil-free demand
- industry pain points: Oil produced by traditional oil-containing air compressors may contaminate wood surfaces or coatings, leading to rework or customer complaints.
- Granklin Solutions: Water-lubricated oil-free technology completely eliminates oil pollution, and the oil content in the spray air approaches zero, which meets high-end furniture production standards.
2. Drying and cleaning
- moisture control: The dew point of compressed air needs to be ≤-20℃ (water vapor content ≤3,000 ppmv) to avoid deformation of wood products or foaming of coating.
- of particulate filter: Suspended particles with a diameter of ≥0.5μm ≤100,000/m³, protecting precision equipment and spray quality.
3. pressure stability
- process requirements: Equipment such as spraying and nail guns need to stabilize the air pressure with a fluctuation range of ≤±0.02MPa to ensure processing accuracy and efficiency.
- Granklin technology: Real-time pressure monitoring through the Internet of Things, combined with frequency conversion adjustment, realizes constant pressure gas supply and reduces equipment idling and energy consumption.
3. The application value of Granklin air compressor
1. quality improvement
- spraying effect: Oil-free air ensures uniform and flawless paint, improving furniture appearance and market competitiveness.
- tool life: Clean air reduces wear on pneumatic tools and extends the service life of nail guns, sanders and other equipment.
- environmental compliance: Oil-free design avoids oil emissions and meets green factory and carbon neutrality goals.
2. cost optimization
- maintenance costs: Eliminate oil filter and oil replacement, and reduce annual maintenance costs by more than 30%.
- energy consumption is reduced by: The combination of frequency conversion technology and high-efficiency motors saves energy by 15%-20% compared with traditional air compressors.
- production efficiency: Stabilize air pressure and low failure rate reduce downtime and increase overall production capacity.
3. security
- explosion-proof design: In dusty environments (such as wood chips) in furniture factories, explosion-proof air compressors can be optional to reduce fire risks.
- low heat: The water-lubricated structure reduces the surface temperature of the equipment and avoids safety hazards caused by high temperatures.
