The production of ceramic sanitary ware—toilets, basins, and cisterns—is a high-volume process where consistency is paramount. Manual glazing, however, frequently suffers from defects such as pooling in corners, running on vertical surfaces, and uneven film thickness (FT), leading to high scrap rates after firing. Robotic Glazing Sanitary Ware systems offer a definitive solution.
These dedicated robots use advanced motion control to navigate the complex geometry of a toilet trap or basin interior with sub-millimeter precision. They ensure:
Uniform Velocity: The robot maintains a constant speed relative to the surface, crucial for preventing localized build-up.
Optimized Angle: The gun angle is dynamically adjusted to ensure maximum glaze transfer efficiency, even in hard-to-reach internal curves.
Process Consistency: The robot guarantees the exact same thickness (measured in microns) on every piece, drastically reducing defects and ensuring a stable firing process.
By stabilizing the glazing application, manufacturers see significant reductions in rework and scrap, directly boosting profitability.
