Abstract: A new rolling plate auto-cleaning equipment was designed based on the technology of rodless cylinder, to solve the problem that the rolling plate's surface of cigarette maker was difficult to clean. The device consists of copper brush, rodless cylinder, industrial camera, light source, blowing block and blowing rod, etc. It used the copper brush driven by the rodless cylinder to clean the paper, glue and other foreign matters on the rolling plate, and used the industrial camera to realize the intelligent detection of rolling plate cleanliness. The rolling plate auto-cleaning equipment was applied to ZJ116A cigarette maker for testing. The results showed that the rolling plate jam of the improved cigarette maker was 2.6 times per day less than that before the improvement decreased from 5.1 times/day to 2.5 times/day, the number of manual cleaning is also reduced by 3.03 times per dayalso decreased from 4.03 times/day to 1 times/day. The rolling plate auto-cleaning equipment could effectively improve the operation rate of the cigarette maker.
