Structural metal feeding method and manufacturing system for structural metals

Abstract

The invention discloses a structural metal feeding optimization method and a manufacturing system for structural metals. The method includes following steps: (1) primarily grouping the structural metals according to materials and thicknesses of parts of the structural metals; (2) secondarily grouping the parts grouped primarily according to requirements of processing technology of the parts; (3) thirdly grouping the parts grouped secondarily by the aid of a clustering algorithm according to shape features of the parts; and (4) guiding the grouped parts into a layout module to be in layout, and accordingly realizing a feeding optimization procedure. By the aid of the feeding optimization method and the manufacturing system for the structural metals, raw materials can be utilized more effectively, cost is greatly reduced, efficiency is higher, and management and control of a total production process including order management, planned dispatching, optimal layout, processing forming and component welding are integrated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of machining parts layout, and more specifically, to a method for optimizing the blanking of metal structural parts and a corresponding manufacturing system. Background technique [0002] Metal structural parts are widely used in many fields such as construction machinery, shipbuilding industry, port machinery, heavy industry machinery and aerospace. Most of them have the same process flow, such as order→drawing review→process design→production operation plan→optimized nesting→steel plate cutting→levelling→machining→bending forming→component welding→warehousing. [0003] With the intensification of market competition, the metal structure manufacturing industry, like other industry enterprises, is facing fierce competition. Today's fierce competition urgently requires enterprises to optimize the overall manufacturing process, improve production efficiency and material utilization, and then improve the economic benefit...

Problems solved by technology

In the field of metal structural parts manufacturing, the manual layout used before has low efficiency and relatively large waste of materials, lack of optimization and effective control of the entire blanking production process, it is difficult to optimize the overall utilization of materials, and it is difficult to effectively balance and increase the production capacity of equipment; and Specifically for the manufacturing process of metal structural parts, the existing blanking and layout methods often do not take into account the technological requirements of the metal structural parts themselves. For example, the various parts that make up the metal structural parts often have fixed shapes and sizes, and can be In many cases, it is combined and arranged, and many parts need to undergo similar processing procedures such as milling, forming and welding, so it is not suitable for optimal layout of metal structural parts.

In addition, the current manufacturing process of metal structural parts lacks a production management information platform, and cannot carry out information management on the entire production process including blanking, processing, forming and welding. The entire production efficiency is affected, which restricts the further improvement of enterprise production capacity.
