Frame manufacturing method and frame

The invention discloses a frame manufacturing method and a frame, relates to the technical field of frame production, and aims to solve the problem that a welding seam at the splicing position of an existing motorcycle frame is obvious. According to the technical scheme, the method is characterized by comprising the following steps that S1, a metal plate is provided as a raw material, and a frame blank is formed through cutting; s2, the frame blank is placed in a stretching die on a hydraulic machine to be subjected to pressure forming, deformation of the frame blank is controlled through a cavity of the stretching die, and a continuous streamline curved surface is formed on a frame body; and S3, laser cutting is carried out on the frame body based on artificial intelligence. The method comprises the following sub-steps that S3.1, actual three-dimensional point cloud data of the surface of the stretched and formed frame body are obtained through an optical scanning system. According to the method, dense welding seams of traditional multi-section splicing are thoroughly eliminated through the integrated streamline forming technology, intelligent prediction and self-adaptive correction are conducted on material springback and thermal deformation in combination with the AI dynamic compensation cutting technology, and precise adaptation of the frame contour and the motor interface is achieved.
