Method, processing device and processing system for automated surface processing of shaped large components of wind energy installations

Abstract

A method for the automated surface machining, in particular grinding, of profile components in the form of shaped large-scale components, in particular rotor blades of wind energy installations, by means of a machining plant having a moving mast and a Robotic system of a control system and a processing tool of a working head, the method has the following steps: in principle without mechanical constraints, a moving gantry as a moving carriage is moved along a profile surface of a profile member; The feed robot actuated between the moving carriage and the processing tool feeds the processing tool substantially transversely to the profile face of the profile member; surface treatment of large components is carried out with the aid of the processing tool, wherein according to a pre-set model of the profile face of the profile member, The travel movement of the moving gantry is carried out by means of a control system and the feed movement of the machining tool is carried out by means of a feed robot; multiple surface-like processing sequences are carried out on large components.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for the automated surface machining, in particular grinding, of profile components in the form of shaped large-scale components, in particular rotor blades of wind energy installations, as well as a corresponding machining plant and a machine with the machining plant processing system. Background technique [0002] Such a device and such a method are known from WO 2008 / 077844 A1. The disadvantages of the method disclosed in WO 2008 / 077844 A1 are: [0003] - The grinding gantry moves on rails and cannot be transported to other manufacturing sites; [0004] - because the grinding head can only move in the horizontal direction, it is not possible to grind the entire profile profile; [0005] - In the case of an increase in the cross-section or also the length of the rotor blade, the entire mast must be adjusted. [0006] In the case of shaped large components of wind energy installations (for example in rotor blades, ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0006] In the case of shaped large components of wind energy installations (for example in rotor blades, but optionally also in other large components of wind energy installations, such as rotor housings, hubs, nacelle housings or tower sections, etc.), the Problematic is the often complex and actually variable shape depending on the type of facility

The shape of the rotor blades, for example, has proven to be complex and can actually be changed plant-specifically, which can lead to the fact that they cannot be processed in relatively inflexible processing plants of the type mentioned at the outset.
