Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of casting, in particular to a casting cleaning unit and a cleaning method. Background technique

[0002] After the casting is poured, it enters the cleaning process of the casting after unpacking, sand shakeout and shot blasting. Burrs on the parting surface of castings, ingates and riser neck residues are unavoidable structures in castings, especially in special-shaped castings. These structures are not needed by customers and must be cleaned and ground. In the past, castings were cleaned completely. Relying on manual grinding, the work efficiency is extremely low, the working environment is harsh, the labor cost is high and the labor force is strong. In the process of manual cleaning and grinding of castings, special-shaped castings need to be cleaned in many parts, the structure is thick, and it is very difficult to clean and grind. Great relationship, customer complaints due to the quality of castings often occ...

Examples

Embodiment 1

[0045] Embodiment one: see Figure 1-Figure 4 , as shown in the legend therein, a casting cleaning unit,

[0046] Including the first conveying roller table 110, the second conveying roller table 120, the machining center equipment 200, the grinding equipment 300, the casting transfer exchange mechanism 400, the first robot 510 and the second robot 520, the machining center equipment 200 is set on the first conveying roller One side of the road 110, and the grinding device 300 is arranged on one side of the second conveying roller table 120.

[0047] The machining center equipment 200 is a vertical machining center equipment, which is mainly used for casting pre-processing and large flash removal.

[0048] The grinding equipment 300 includes a processing device and a fixture. The above-mentioned processing device includes an air motor, a handle assembly, and a tool that are sequentially connected along the power output direction. The above-mentioned air motor includes a motor...

Embodiment 2

[0071] see Figure 5 , as shown in the legend therein, the rest are the same as in Embodiment 1, the difference is that the above-mentioned casting cleaning unit also includes a robot gripper automatic exchange mechanism, and the robot gripper automatic exchange mechanism includes a frame 710 and is installed on the frame The above-mentioned exchange station includes a positioning plate 721, and a card slot 722 is arranged on the positioning plate 721. The horizontal section of the card slot 722 is U-shaped, and the width dimension of the card slot 722 along the horizontal direction and along the horizontal direction The depth dimension of the direction matches the diameter of the connecting disc of the robot gripper.
