Design and Production of an Environmentally Friendly Cabin Type Full Automation Paint Removal Machine

Abstract The effective and damage-free removal of deteriorated paint and varnish from wood surfaces is vital for both aesthetic and long-term material use. Traditional methods like scraping or sanding are labor-intensive and time-consuming. Moreover, alternative solutions like paint strippers pose significant threats to human health and the environment. To address these challenges, this study introduces a groundbreaking solution: the Cabin Type Full Automation Paint Removal Machine (CAPREM), designed and manufactured. The CAPREM is engineered to efficiently eliminate layers of paint and varnish from diverse materials, including wood, by blasting abrasive media onto the surface using compressed air. With the ability to control and adjust parameters such as air pressure, nozzle diameter, removal angle, removal distance, and feed rate, the machine offers flexibility for various coating layer removal scenarios. Furthermore, by enhancing the diversity of abrasive media, the CAPREM aims to provide an environmentally friendly solution for coating layer removal, benefiting multiple industries and advancing research in this field.
