Pneumatic hot stamping machines for plastic flying disc sports equipment products:

Applicable situations

• Plastic flying disc: Various patterns, texts or logos, such as brand logos, creative patterns, etc., can be hot stamped on the surface of plastic flying discs through pneumatic hot stamping machines, which can not only increase the beauty and recognition of the flying disc, but also enhance the added value of the product.

• Sports equipment: For sports equipment parts such as the back cover of the handle of a badminton racket, the pneumatic hot stamping machine can be used to hot stamp trademarks, models and other information to make the product more professional and personalized.

• Plastic furniture: For plastic tables, chairs, storage boxes and other furniture, the hot stamping process can hot stamp decorative lines, patterns or textures on their surfaces, enhance the decorative effect of the furniture, and meet the aesthetic needs of different consumers.

Working principle of pneumatic system

The pneumatic system of the pneumatic hot stamping machine is mainly composed of air pumps, cylinders, solenoid valves, pressure regulating valves and other components. The air pump generates compressed air, which is adjusted to a suitable pressure by the pressure regulating valve, and then the action of the cylinder is controlled by the solenoid valve. When the solenoid valve receives a signal from the control system and opens, compressed air enters the cylinder, pushing the piston to move, and then drives the hot stamping head to descend, exerting pressure on the substrate; when the hot stamping is completed, the solenoid valve closes, the air in the cylinder is discharged, and the hot stamping head rises back to the initial position under the action of a spring or other reset device.

Working principle of heating system

The heating system is generally composed of a heating element (such as an electric heating tube, a heating plate, etc.) and a temperature controller. When the heating element is powered on, it generates heat, so that the hot stamping head or hot stamping plate reaches the set temperature. The temperature controller is responsible for monitoring and controlling the heating temperature to ensure that the temperature is stable within the set value range to ensure the consistency of the hot stamping effect.

Hot stamping process principle

Place the substrate on the workbench of the hot stamping machine, and place the hot stamping paper above the substrate, so that the pattern or text of the hot stamping paper is aligned with the part of the substrate to be hot stamped. After starting the hot stamping machine, the pneumatic system drives the hot stamping head to descend, and the heating system makes the hot stamping head reach the set temperature. Under the combined action of pressure and temperature, the glue layer of the hot stamping paper quickly melts and tightly combines with the surface of the substrate. After a short holding time, the glue is fully solidified, and the hot stamping head rises to complete the hot stamping process. At this time, the release layer on the hot stamping paper is separated from the base layer, and the glue layer, electroplating layer, color layer, etc. of the pattern or text are firmly hot stamped on the substrate.

Daily maintenance and maintenance of pneumatic hot stamping machine:

Pneumatic system maintenance

• Check the air pressure: Before starting the machine every day, check whether the air pressure is within the normal range required by the equipment, generally 0.4 - 0.6MPa. Avoid insufficient air pressure and excessive air pressure.

• Clean the filter: Clean the air filter regularly to prevent dust, impurities, etc. from entering the pneumatic system. A clogged filter will reduce the air flow and affect the speed and force of the cylinder.

• Check the air pipe and joints: Check the air pipe regularly for damage and leakage to avoid affecting the normal operation of the equipment due to gas leakage.

Heating system maintenance

• Check the heating element: Check the heating element regularly, such as the electric heating tube or heating plate, to see if there is damage, aging or carbon deposition on its surface.

• Calibrate the temperature controller: Perform temperature calibration once a quarter to ensure that the temperature display value matches the actual temperature. Calibration can be performed using a professional temperature calibration instrument.

Mechanical parts maintenance

• Clean the body and workbench: After each use, the dust, debris and residual hot stamping materials on the surface of the body and workbench should be cleaned in time.

• Lubricate moving parts: Regularly lubricate the moving parts of the equipment, such as the cylinder piston rod, the lifting guide rail of the hot stamping head, etc., to reduce friction between parts, ensure smooth movement, and prevent jamming and wear.

• Check the hot stamping plate and fixture: Every time you replace the hot stamping plate, carefully check whether the fixture is firm and whether the hot stamping plate is installed flat.

Electrical system inspection

• Check the wires and plugs: Regularly check whether the wires are damaged or aged, and whether the plugs are in good contact.

• Clean the electrical control cabinet: Regularly clean the dust inside the electrical control cabinet. Excessive dust accumulation may cause problems such as poor heat dissipation and short circuit of electrical components.
