The application relates to the technical field of automatic conveying equipment, in particular to a deformation inhibition method and
system in vertical conveying of a PCB
thick plate. The method is applied to an equipment comprising a vertical conveying mechanism, a flexible support
chain system and a
control system, and comprises the following steps: initializing the flexible support
chain system according to the specifications of the PCB
thick plate; in the vertical conveying process, acquiring a tension feedback
signal of the support chain and a deformation displacement feedback
signal of the plate body in real time; taking the displacement
signal as a main controlled variable and the tension signal as a secondary controlled variable, and generating a control instruction through a
cascade control algorithm; and dynamically adjusting the tension of the support chain and an effective support contour according to the instruction, so that the support force distribution is self-adaptive to the real-time deformation state of the plate, thereby inhibiting the middle sag and edge warping of the plate. The
system corresponds to the vertical conveying mechanism, the flexible support
chain system and the
control system for execution.
