About Car Baking Lamp
Introduction
The Car Baking Lamp is a professional device used in the paint-baking process. It mainly accelerates the drying and curing process of the paint by generating heat radiation at a specific temperature. It usually uses infrared, ultraviolet or hot air and other technical means to efficiently transfer heat to the surface of the object being coated, so that the solvent in the paint evaporates quickly, and at the same time promotes the chemical reaction of the resin in the paint, thereby forming a solid and smooth coatin
1.Main types
Infrared paint lamp
- Working principle: Using the thermal effect of infrared rays, the surface of the object absorbs infrared radiant energy and the temperature rises rapidly, thereby accelerating the drying and solidification of the paint.
- Features: Rapid heating, high thermal efficiency, relatively low energy consumption, suitable for baking paint of various coatings, especially for the drying effect of water-based coatings and UV coatings.
UV paint lamp
- Working principle: Emit ultraviolet radiation to excite the photoinitiator in the paint, triggering the polymerization reaction of the resin, thereby rapidly solidifying the paint.
- Features: The curing speed is extremely fast and the coating can be cured within a few seconds. It is suitable for occasions that require high production efficiency. However, UV paint lamps usually need to be used with specific UV curing coatings.
2.Application Field
Auto Repair and Beauty
- After the car is painted, the use of a Car Baking Lamp can speed up the drying of the paint surface, improve the hardness and glossiness of the paint surface, and shorten the repair time. At the same time, the car baking lamp can ensure the quality and durability of the paint surface, making the car look more beautiful.
- For auto repair shops and beauty shops, it is necessary to choose a car baking lamp with high power, fast heating and uniform temperature. In this way, the paint baking operation of the car paint surface can be completed in a shorter time, improving work efficiency. At the same time, considering the large size of the car body, a car baking lamp with a larger irradiation area should be selected to ensure that the entire paint surface can be fully baked.
- You can choose a paint lamp with a mobile bracket or adjustable angle, which is convenient for operation in different positions and meets the paint baking needs of different models.
Furniture Manufacturing
- Used for drying and curing the paint on the surface of furniture, it can improve production efficiency and ensure the coating quality of furniture. Especially for the coating of high-end furniture, the paint baking lamp can make the paint surface smoother and more uniform, and enhance the decorative effect and durability of the furniture.
- Consider the characteristics of the paint on the surface of the furniture and choose the appropriate type of paint baking lamp. For example, for water-based paint, a paint baking lamp with a relatively low temperature and a long baking time should be selected to avoid cracks caused by the paint drying too quickly.
Industrial Manufacturing
- In industrial production, baking lamps are widely used in surface coating of metal products, plastic products, etc. For example, paint treatment of mechanical parts, electronic product shells, etc. can improve their corrosion resistance, wear resistance and appearance quality.
- In industrial manufacturing, the requirements for baking lamps are usually higher, and it is necessary to select baking lamps with high stability, long life and high-precision temperature control. According to different industrial products, such as metal products, plastic products, etc., choose the appropriate power and irradiation method.
3.Consider the performance parameters of the Car Baking Lamp
Power
- Power is one of the important indicators to measure the performance of paint baking lamps. Generally speaking, the greater the power, the faster the paint baking lamp heats up and the stronger the baking ability. However, excessive power may also lead to energy waste and excessive temperature, causing damage to the baked object. Therefore, a paint baking lamp with appropriate power should be selected according to actual needs.
- For the painting of small objects, you can choose a paint baking lamp with a lower power, such as 500W - 1000W; for medium-sized objects, such as furniture, you can choose a paint baking lamp with a power of 1000W - 2000W; and for large objects or industrial production, a paint baking lamp with a power of more than 2000W may be required.
Temperature Range and Control Accuracy
- Different paints and objects have different temperature requirements, so it is necessary to select a paint baking lamp with a suitable temperature range. Generally speaking, the temperature range of the paint baking lamp should be able to meet the drying and curing temperature requirements of common paints.
- Temperature control accuracy is also an important consideration. High-precision temperature control can ensure the stability of temperature during the paint baking process and improve the coating quality. Some advanced paint baking lamps have digital temperature control functions, which can accurately set and adjust the temperature, and the error is usually within ±1℃.
Illumination Area and Distance
- The illumination area determines the range of the surface of the object to be baked that can be covered by the paint baking lamp. Choose a paint baking lamp with a suitable illumination area according to the size of the object to be baked to ensure that the entire surface can be evenly baked.
- The illumination distance will also affect the baking effect. Generally speaking, the distance between the paint baking lamp and the object to be baked should be adjusted according to the power of the paint baking lamp and the material and shape of the object to be baked. Too close a distance may cause the local temperature to be too high, while too far a distance will reduce the baking effect.
4.Pay attention to the quality of the paint lamp
Quality
Check the shell material, bulb quality, wire insulation and other aspects of the baking lamp to ensure its good durability and safety. The shell of a high-quality paint lamp is usually made of high-temperature and corrosion-resistant materials, with a long bulb life and good wire insulation.
Understand the heat dissipation performance of the baking lamp. Good heat dissipation performance can extend the service life of the baking lamp and avoid damage due to overheating. You can choose a baking lamp with a cooling fan or heat sink to improve the heat dissipation effect.
5.Precautions for use
①Safe operation
When using the baking lamp, you must strictly follow the operating procedures to avoid safety accidents such as electric shock and burns. Operators should wear appropriate protective equipment, such as gloves, goggles, etc.
②Temperature control
According to the requirements of different coatings and coated objects, reasonably adjust the temperature and baking time of the baking lamp. Too high a temperature may cause the paint to discolor, bubble or burn, while too low a temperature will prolong the drying time and affect the quality of the coating.
③Good ventilation
Harmful gases and dust will be generated during the paint baking process, so it is necessary to ensure that the workplace is well ventilated, and harmful gases and dust are removed in time to protect the health of operators.
