Adhesive nozzle cleaning system for automotive production
Ensure consistent adhesive application and seamless quality by integrating this system to efficiently clean and maintain nozzle performance, preventing fouling that leads to spray pattern changes or blockages.
Blasts and Cleans Adhesive Application Nozzles
The KS Nozzle Cleaner from KUKA Systems is specifically engineered to enhance precision and reliability in automotive adhesive applications. This automated cleaner effectively blasts compressed air to remove adhesive residues from application nozzles, ensuring optimal performance in car body construction and other vehicle production lines. Designed for seamless integration with existing automated systems, it supports continuous operation by activating after a set number of spray applications. Available in Mini and Maxi variants to suit varying production needs, it maintains consistent seam quality across applications such as door frames and tailgates. The KS Nozzle Cleaner also offers optional TCP check functionality to verify nozzle accuracy, minimizing downtime and maximizing line efficiency. With easy transferability to other systems and configurations designed to your specifications, it provides an essential solution for maintaining production efficacy in demanding manufacturing environments.
