The application of automated control in the practical production of imitation pearl oil coating

This paper focuses on an automated control system for imitation pearl oil coating. Traditional production methods for imitation pearl oil coating incur high labor costs and resource wastage issues, which can be effectively addressed through automated control systems. The study first analyzes system requirements, covering both functional and performance needs, followed by the design of the system solution that includes the overall architecture and detailed design. Subsequently, system development and integration have been completed. In terms of research methodology, the immersion method is adopted to design the hardware structure and create an imitation pearl oil coating device, which includes components such as the feeding bin and mold arrangement. The software design consists of control systems for tasks such as plate retrieval, feeding, bead arrangement, oil coating, and material collection, with each subsystem working in coordination to ensure a smooth production process. Experiments using glass plates and molds of specific specifications demonstrate that the system can complete oil coating for 3 million imitation pearls in a single day. Composed of various key components, the system operates with high efficiency, precision, reasonable actions, correct functional allocation, and reliable stability. It has been successfully implemented in multiple enterprises and has received high recognition. This research is supported by the Guangxi Key Research and Development Program.
