Automatic sanding and polishing device for industrial robot

Abstract

The invention relates to an automatic sanding and polishing device for an industrial robot, wherein the industrial robot is served as the core of the device; the device comprises the industrial robot, an automatic shifting fixture, a polishing machine, and a force control program; and the device can be used for sanding and polishing the parts having complex exteriors, and is especially suitable for processing faucet, ironware, blade, and the like. A method for automatically sanding and polishing by using the device comprises the following steps: the automatic shifting fixture arranged on the tail end of the industrial robot is used for holding the parts; adjusting the position and posture of the industrial robot according to different areas for sanding or polishing of the parts; contacting the areas for sanding or polishing with a sanding belt of the polishing machine and keeping a certain contact force; controlling the size of the contact force by a force control mechanism; after finishing programming the whole surface of parts, using the industrial robot to perform the reprogramming operation; and sanding or polishing the parts having same exteriors in batch.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an automatic processing equipment, which is mainly used for sanding and polishing of parts in the manufacturing industry. The equipment utilizes the flexibility of industrial robots, cooperates with floating gear trains, automatic displacement fixtures, force control programming units, etc. It is especially suitable for processing faucets, plumbing decorations, hardware, engine blades and other parts. Background technique [0002] In the manufacturing industry, the sanding of casting parts and the polishing of machined parts are important processes in part molding. For parts with complex shapes, special machine tools cannot be used for processing. Manual processing methods are generally used. Manual processing has poor product consistency and low efficiency. Low-level problems, more serious is the generation of dust in the process of sanding and polishing, which seriously affects the physical and mental health of workers. Con...
