Research and Analysis of Energy Consumption in Automotive Painting Production Line and Energy-Saving Optimization
The research and analysis of the electricity and natural gas consumption in an automotive painting line reveals that cooling system,air supply unit(ASU)and exhaust air system,ovens system,pre-treatment(PT)and electrodeposition(ED)system,VOC treatment,boiler,lighting system are the main energy consumption equipment.Through taking a series of new technology and lean management energy-saving optimization countermeasures,the energy consumption in the painting shop can be significantly reduced.For example,the control system of the cooling system is optimized.The temperature and humidity of the ASU are optimized from the"point"control to the"window"control.The ovens use"intelligent control system"and exhaust heat recovery.The high energy consumption lights are replaced with low energy consumption LED lights and the intelligent lighting energy-saving control system is used.The electricity saving management are optimized during production gaps and holidays.The reasonable equipment maintenance plan is proposed.
