Klein-Beizanlage Mükomat 4-6

Semi-automatic or programme-controlled small etching system for samples

MÜKOMAT systems are modular etching systems used, amongst other things, in the field of macro-etching for the inspection of material samples. The construction from coated steel and plastic ensures a low-corrosion interior. Etching of small components up to a diameter of 450 mm is possible.

A Siemens S7-300 control system enables individual control and programming of the unit. Formula changes can be easily implemented at any time.

Alternatively: Programmable etching unit with 8 electroplating tanks

Installation

The special steel frame construction of the small etching plant allows for easy on-site assembly without complex mechanical or electrical installations. The control cabinet is mounted directly on the plant, ensuring simple operation and monitoring. All components required for the smooth operation of the plant are integrated within the control cabinet.

Operation

A touch panel and a joystick complete the simple operation of the small-scale etching plant and the trolley. To monitor the exhaust air flow rate, a flow rate monitoring system (DIN 12924) is also installed, which emits an audible and visual warning signal if the flow rate falls below the required level.

Makroätzanlage Ventilation

Safety

The exhaust air is extracted via individually adjustable slotted dampers on the rear wall. To ensure personal safety during operation of the system, large transparent sliding windows (at least 3 in the smallest version) are fitted, so that the operator is protected at all times from liquid splashes (e.g. from acid). Furthermore, the sliding windows allow for optimal monitoring of the production process and facilitate the loading and unloading of the trolley.

Options for the macro-etching system:

  • Expansion with 1–2 acid tanks for redundancy or for different etching solutions. Material available in PP or PVDF.
  • Expansion with additional tanks for degreasing or rinsing.
  • Extension with additional drying of components within the system using hot air. The drawn-in air is heated to approx. 40°C and blown over the components in an aerodynamic manner.
  • External fresh acid station with compressed air diaphragm pumps for filling the pickling tanks. Control is via the control cabinet. Includes a complete suction assembly and 2-stage level switch.
  • Pump station for spent acid and/or rinse water with compressed air diaphragm pumps for conveying the spent acid/rinse water. Complete with level monitoring and suction assembly. The required containers for disposal can also be provided by the customer.
  • Rinsing water in a neutralisation plant
  • Baumann fume cupboard made entirely of PP, including flow rate monitoring (DIN 12924), with optional supply and disposal of waste water and acids.
  • Laboratory fume cupboard for fixing work made entirely of PP, including flow rate monitoring (DIN 12924), with optional circulation pump.
  • Exhaust air system, integrated into the central control cabinet for optimal extraction of all hazardous substances generated.
