Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a processing device for insert molded products, in particular to an integrated machine for cutting, taking and placing materials for insert molded products. Background Art

[0002] Insert molding (also known as Insert Molding) is a type of process in plastic molds. The insert in the mold is generally a stamping part. After the molding is completed, the stamping part and the plastic part are firmly combined together. Insert molding products, referred to as I / M, are molded by insert molding, such as a part that makes up a voice coil motor.

[0003] like Figure 6 As shown, the insert molded product 20 is a square sheet with a circular through hole 21 in the center.

[0004] The insert molded article 20 is produced as follows Fig.13 After the metal strip 100 is inlaid and formed by the molding die of the injection molding machine, the strip 100 is collected on a reel, and then manually placed on a cutting tool by a worker. After cutting, the embedded molded product 20 is cut and separated from the strip 100, the material is taken out, and placed in different holes, and then the worker completes the arrangement.

[0005] The biggest defects and shortcomings in existing technical solutions:

[0006] 1. The efficiency is very slow, with 6 workers manually arranging the dishes at the same time;

[0007] 2. Because the customer requires that there should be no damage to the product during the production process, the original plan had the risk of damage during several turnovers and manual plating processes.

[0008] The cutting tool for producing the insert molded product 20 is as follows Fig. 9 , Fig.10 As shown, the original punch has four punches 931, each of which has two protruding upper cutting edges 9311 at the lower end, and has a cubic die insert 94'. The inner sides of the four sides of the die insert 94' are respectively provided with two vertical through holes 940', and the top 940' of each through hole is provided with an upwardly protruding lower cutting edge 941'. After installation, each side of the die insert 94' corresponds to a punch 931, and each lower cutting edge 941' corresponds to an upper cutting edge 9311.

[0009] Since the structure of setting the lower cutting edge 941' with the vertical through hole 940' is adopted, the previous processing method of the punch 931 and the die insert 94' in the prior art is wire-cut processing, and the wire-cutting is electro-corrosion processing. The upper cutting edge 9311 of the punch 931 and the lower cutting edge 941' of the old die insert 94' are more susceptible to wear during the production process, and the cutting accuracy of the product is sharply reduced. Because customers have high requirements on the cutting size accuracy of the products, the processing accuracy of the existing technical solution is not enough to meet customer requirements.

[0010] In the prior art, the material taking tool in the cutting tool first cuts the material strip, and after the cutting upper die is raised, the material taking tool extends into the cutting tool to suck the product.

[0011] The material is also taken out by suction.

[0012] However, the method of sucking the products has the defect that the products are easy to fall off, and this method of taking materials will greatly increase the cutting cycle and reduce production efficiency.

[0013] Because customers require that there should be no mixed holes in the production process of the product, the existing technical solutions have the risk of mixed holes during the grasping process. Summary of the invention

[0014] The present invention provides an integrated cutting and plating machine, the purpose of which is to solve the shortcomings of the prior art, thereby improving the precision of cutting, material taking and plating, and making the material taking accurate and reliable, with a simple structure, and realizing cutting, material taking and plating on one machine.

[0061] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, the drawings required for use in the description will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings in the following description are only some embodiments of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, other embodiments can be obtained based on these drawings without paying creative work.

[0062] 1. Overall structure of the present invention:

[0063] like Fig.18 , Fig.19 As shown:

[0064] The present invention has a frame as an installation base, and the following structures are all installed on the frame.

[0065] Figure 8 The left and right directions are the X direction, and the following cutting X axis, swing plate X axis, and storage X axis can be driven by cylinders in the prior art, or by gear racks, or by stepper motors or servo motors to drive the lead screw nut, so that the structure mounted thereon can move along the X axis.

[0066] Fig.18 The up-down direction is the Z direction, and the Z axis of the swing plate and the storage Z axis can be driven by the cylinder of the prior art, or by the gear rack drive, or by using a stepper motor or a servo motor to drive the lead screw nut, so that the structure installed thereon can move along the Z axis.

[0067] Fig.19 The left and right direction is the Y direction, and the Y axis of the lower swing plate can be driven by a cylinder in the prior art, or a gear rack drive, or a stepper motor or a servo motor can be used to drive the lead screw nut, so that the structure installed thereon can move along the Y axis.

[0068] A cutting and picking tool 5 is installed at the lower end of the longitudinal cutting cylinder 1, and the longitudinal cutting cylinder 1 is installed on the cutting X-axis 6, and the cutting X-axis 6 is located above the cutting station and the docking and dividing mechanism 12; therefore, the longitudinal cutting cylinder 1 can move left and right along the cutting X-axis 6 together with the cutting and picking tool 5, thereby reciprocating between the two positions of the cutting station and the docking and dividing mechanism 12.

[0069] The two sides of the cutting and taking tool 5 are respectively provided with a drawstring tool 7 and a side cutting tool 2 with a cutting tool at the end thereof. The drawstring tool 7 adopts the structure of the conveying belt 100 of the prior art, so that the belt 100 can be conveyed through the top of the die insert 932 to which the cutting and taking tool 5 belongs, that is, the cutting station, and the cut part of the belt 100 that is continuously conveyed after being cut will be cut off by the side cutting tool 2.

[0070] On one side of the cutting station is a docking material distribution mechanism 12, which is a tray for placing the embedded molded products 20. The docking material distribution mechanism 12 is used to temporarily store the cut embedded molded products 20 moved by the cutting and picking tool 5, and then moved by the tray placing tool 11 to the crisp tray of the tray placing station 13. Since the spacing and layout of the embedded molded products 20 on the material belt 100 and the embedded molded products 20 on the crisp tray are different, the docking material distribution mechanism 12 is used to place the cut embedded molded products 20 moved by the cutting and picking tool 5 according to the placement rules on the crisp tray, and then moved by the tray placing tool 11 to the crisp tray of the tray placing station 13.

[0071] The swing plate material taking tool 11 is fixed below a three-axis mechanism.

[0072] The three-axis mechanism includes a wobble plate Z-axis 81 , a wobble plate Y-axis 8 , and a wobble plate X-axis 10 .

[0073] The swing plate Z axis 81 is installed on the swing plate X axis 8 , the swing plate X axis 8 is installed on the swing plate Y axis 10 , and a swing plate material taking tooling 11 is fixed to the lower end of the swing plate Z axis 81 .

[0074] The connection sequence of the wobble plate Z axis 81, the wobble plate Y axis 8, and the wobble plate X axis 10 and the installation of the wobble plate material picking tooling 11 on one of the wobble plate Z axis 81, the wobble plate Y axis 8, and the wobble plate X axis 10 can be adjusted, and the movement of the wobble plate material picking tooling 11 in three-axis directions can be realized.

[0075] The swing plate Z axis 81 can drive the swing plate material taking tool 11 to move up and down, lift the cutting and taking tool 5 and move it to the cut insert molded product 20 docking the material dividing mechanism 12.

[0076] The swing plate X-axis 10 is located above the docking and material distribution mechanism 12 and the swing plate station 13; the swing plate X-axis 10 can drive the swing plate material picking tooling 11 to move left and right, and move the embedded molded product 20 from the docking and material distribution mechanism 12 to the swing plate station 13 position.

[0077] The Y-axis 8 of the swing plate can drive the swing plate material picking tool 11 to move in a direction perpendicular to the X-axis 10 of the swing plate on the plane. Because the cutting and picking tool 5 only cuts off 8 embedded molded products 20 each time, there are only 8 embedded molded products 20 in the docking and dividing mechanism 12 each time. Each time, 8 embedded molded products 20 are moved by the swing plate material picking tool 11 and placed in the crisp plate at the swing plate station 13, and the crisp plate can hold dozens or hundreds of embedded molded products 20 at a time. Therefore, the swing plate material picking tool 11 needs to move the embedded molded products 20 for multiple times to place them. The position of the embedded molded products 20 placed each time is different, and the movement of the Y-axis 8 of the swing plate is needed to finally determine the position of the 8 embedded molded products 20 placed this time in the crisp plate.

[0078] The plate-stirring station includes a plate-stirring station 13 and a plate-stirring station 2 14, which are mounted on a rodless cylinder, and crispy plates are placed on the plate-stirring station 13 and the plate-stirring station 2 14. Multiple crispy plates can be placed on the plate-stirring station 13 and the plate-stirring station 2 14, respectively.

[0079] The rodless cylinder drives the first plate station 13 and the second plate station 14 to exchange positions. When the positions are exchanged, the crisp plate on the first plate station 13 is full of the embedded molded products 20, and the crisp plate placed on the second plate station 14 is empty. After the exchange, the crisp plate on the first plate station 14 is full of the embedded molded products 20, and the crisp plate placed on the second plate station 13 is empty.

[0080] The storage X-axis 15 is located above the plate placement station 14, the empty crisp plate placement station 18 (which contains empty crisp plates), and the storage station 19. The storage Z-axis 16 is installed on the storage X-axis 15, and a crisp plate fixture 17 is installed at the lower end of the storage Z-axis 15.

[0081] The storage X-axis 15 can drive the storage Z-axis 16 and its crisp plate clamp 17 to move between the three positions of the plate placement station 14, the empty crisp plate placement station 18, and the storage station 19.

[0082] The storage Z axis 16 can drive the crisp plate clamp 17 to move up and down. The crisp plate clamp 17 can clamp the crisp plate filled with embedded molded products 20 and move it from the plate arrangement station 2 14 to the storage station 19, and can also clamp an empty crisp plate and move it from the empty crisp plate placement station 18 to the plate arrangement station 2.

[0083] The above-mentioned longitudinal cutting cylinder 1, ultra-thin cylinder 911 of the cutting and picking tooling 5, cutting X-axis 6, swing plate Z-axis 81, swing plate X-axis 10, swing plate Y-axis 8, cylinder 82 of the swing plate picking tooling 5, rodless cylinder, storage X-axis 15, storage Z-axis 16, and crisp plate clamp 17 are respectively connected to the controller and controlled by the controller, so that they can work in a set order.

[0084] 2. Cutting and material taking tooling structure of the present invention:

[0085] The structure of the cutting and taking tool 5 of the present invention is as follows:

[0086] like Figure 1 As shown, the lower end of the fixing block 916 of the present invention has four holes 9161 for inserting and fixing four Figure 4 , Figure 5 The material taking whisker 918 shown is a thin wire made of steel wire or plastic material, which has certain flexibility and certain hardness. The outer wall of the fixing block 16 is provided with two vertical positioning protrusions 9162.

[0087] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the material taking fixture 917 of the present invention is a cylindrical body with a vertical through hole 9171. The material taking fixture 917 is provided with four oblique through holes 9172 evenly distributed on the circumference on the side wall of the lower part. One end of the oblique through hole 9172 is located on the inner wall of the vertical through hole 9171, and the other end is located on the outer wall of the material taking fixture 917. Two vertical positioning grooves 9173 are provided at the top of the side wall of the vertical through hole 9171 of the material taking fixture 917.

[0088] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the material picking tool has a fixed plate 913, which is equivalent to the frame of the material picking tool of the present invention. There are four connecting plates 912 above the fixed plate 913, and each connecting plate 912 is fixedly provided with an ultra-thin cylinder 911. There are four ultra-thin cylinders 911 in total, and eight material picking fixtures 917 are fixedly provided on the lower surface of the fixed plate 913 at positions corresponding to the four ultra-thin cylinders 911, that is, each ultra-thin cylinder 911 is correspondingly provided with two material picking fixtures 917.

[0089] The cylinder rod of the ultra-thin cylinder 911 is fixed on the fixed plate 913, and each connecting plate 912 is fixedly connected to two sets of connecting bodies. Each set of connecting bodies includes a connecting rod 914, a headless screw 915, and a fixing block 916 that are fixed in sequence. The connecting body composed of the connecting rod 914, the headless screw 915, and the fixing block 916 passes through the through hole provided on the fixed plate 913, and the fixing block 916 is inserted into the material picking fixture 917, and the vertical positioning protrusion 9162 is inserted into the vertical positioning groove 9173 to play a guiding and anti-rotation role.

[0090] When the cylinder rod of the ultra-thin cylinder 911 is pushed out, since the cylinder rod of the ultra-thin cylinder 911 is fixed on the fixed plate 913 and the ultra-thin cylinder 911 is movable, the ultra-thin cylinder 911 rises, driving the connecting plate 912 and the connecting rod 914, headless screw 915, and fixed block 916 fixed thereto to rise, that is, the connecting rod 914, headless screw 915, and fixed block 916 are in the upper position, that is, when the fixed block 916 is in the upper working position, the lower end of the material taking whisker 918 is located in the oblique through hole 9172.

[0091] When the cylinder rod of the ultra-thin cylinder 911 is retracted, the ultra-thin cylinder 911 descends, driving the connecting plate 912 and the connecting rod 914, headless screw 915, and fixed block 916 fixed thereto to descend, that is, the connecting rod 914, headless screw 915, and fixed block 916 are in the lower end position, that is, when the fixed block 916 is in the lower work position, the lower end of the material picking whisker 918 is located outside the oblique through hole 9172.

[0092] like Fig.11 , Fig.12 As shown, each group of punches in the present invention has four punches 931, and a clearance space is surrounded in the middle of the four punches 931. The lower end of each punch 931 has two raised upper cutting edges 9311, and each group of punches corresponds to a cubic die insert 932. The four sides of the die insert 932 are respectively provided with two vertical grooves 9322, and the top of each groove 9322 is provided with an upwardly protruding lower cutting edge 9321; each side of the die insert 932 corresponds to a punch 931, and each lower cutting edge 9321 corresponds to an upper cutting edge 9311.

[0093] Due to the suitable space, the processing method of the punch 91 and the die insert 932 is changed to grinding. The surface roughness of the grinding process is better than that of the wire cutting process. The upper cutting edge 9311 of the punch 91 and the lower cutting edge 9321 of the die insert 932 have a lower relative wear rate during the production process, which can ensure the production accuracy for a longer time, reduce the maintenance frequency, and improve the production efficiency.

[0094] A circular concave hole 9320 is provided in the middle of the die insert 932, and a vertical groove 9323 is provided on each side of the die insert 932. The vertical groove 9323 extends downward from the top surface of the die insert 932 and connects the circular concave hole 9320 and the side surface of the die insert 932. In this way, there are several spaces for making way downward on the upper surface of the die insert 932. The circular concave hole 9320 is for the material removal jig 917 to extend into, and the vertical groove 9323 is for the material removal whisker 918 to extend into.

[0095] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown:

[0096] The lower die frame of the cutting lower die includes a side guide plate 97, a concave die plate 98, and a lower die plate 99 fixed together. The concave die plate 98 of the lower die frame is provided with 8 concave die inserts 932, and each concave die insert 932 has a vertical through hole 9320 in the middle.

[0097] The upper die frame is located above the cutting lower die.

[0098] The upper mold frame includes a fixed plate 91, a support plate 92, an upper cover plate 93, a fixed plate 94, a height limiting plate 95, and a discharge plate 96 installed together. Eight groups of punches 931 are installed on the frame fixed plate 94, and each group of four punches 931 passes through the height limiting plate 95 and the discharge plate 96. Each group of punches 931 corresponds to a die insert 932 below, and a clearance space is provided in the middle of the upper cover plate 93, the fixed plate 94, the height limiting plate 95, the discharge plate 96, and each group of punches 931 corresponding to the middle vertical through hole 9320 of the die insert 932.

[0099] The lower end of the longitudinal cutting cylinder 1 is fixedly connected to a fixing plate 91 .

[0100] The fixing plate 913 of the material taking fixture is installed on the upper cover plate 93 of the upper die frame, and the eight material taking fixtures 917 of the material taking fixture pass through the middle space installed in each group of convex molds 931, corresponding to the through holes 9320 of the eight concave mold inserts 932 below. And the opening of the oblique through hole 9172 of the material taking fixture 917 on the outer wall is lower than the lower end of the unloading plate 96.

[0101] During operation, the cylinder rod of the ultra-thin cylinder 911 is in an ejected state, and the lower end of the material taking whisker 918 is located in the oblique through hole 9172 .

[0102] The material strip 100 with the insert molded products 20 is guided from the side guide plate 97 and inputted above the die insert 932. Eight insert molded products 20 are on the eight die inserts 932. The longitudinal cutting cylinder 1 drives the upper die frame to descend. The punch 931 and the die insert 932 move relative to each other. The upper cutting edge 9311 and the lower cutting edge 9321 cooperate to cut the insert molded products 20 from the material strip 100. In this process, the material removal jig 917 located in the middle of the punch will extend into the through hole 21 of the insert molded product 20 cut by the punch 931, and further extend into the through hole 9320 of the die insert 932.

[0103] Then the cylinder rod of the ultra-thin cylinder 911 is retracted, and the lower end of the material picking whisker 918 will move and extend out of the oblique through hole 9172. After the cylinder rod of the ultra-thin cylinder 911 is completely retracted, that is, the connecting rod 914, the headless screw 915, and the fixing block 916 are in the lower end position, that is, when the fixing block 916 is in the lower work position, the lower end of the material picking whisker 918 is located outside the oblique through hole 9172 and extends into the vertical groove 9323. In this way, the lower end part of the material picking whisker 918 is obliquely located below the embedded molded product 20, and the material picking whisker 918 will not touch the embedded molded product 20 during the extension process.

[0104] The longitudinal cutting cylinder 1 drives the upper mold frame to rise, and the material picking tooling rises together. The four material picking whiskers 918 under each embedded molded product 20 rise along the vertical groove 9323, lifting the edge of the circular through hole 21 of the embedded molded product 20, and then the embedded molded product 20 is lifted up. As the upper mold frame rises, the material is picked up and rises to mid-air, completing the material picking work.

[0105] When the material picking fixture 917 is moved to the designated location, in this embodiment, the cutting X-axis 6 is used to drive the upper mold frame together with the material picking fixture 917 to move to the next workstation (that is, the docking and material distribution mechanism 12), the cylinder rod of the ultra-thin cylinder 911 is pushed out, and the material picking whisker 918 is retracted into the oblique through hole 9172, and the embedded molded product 20 is placed on the docking and material distribution mechanism 12.

[0106] Thus, a batch of eight insert-molded products 20 finally cut out are removed.

[0107] 3. The structure of the tooling for taking the material from the plate according to the present invention:

[0108] The structure of the tray material taking tool 11 of the present invention is as follows:

[0109] like Fig.14 , Fig.15 As shown:

[0110] The material-collecting claw 86 of the present invention is composed of a connecting portion 867 and a claw portion 868. The outer wall of the claw portion 868 is provided with four axial dividing grooves 865 evenly distributed relative to the circumference of the axis of the material-collecting claw 86, so that the claw portion 868 is divided into four separate claw bodies 866 evenly distributed relative to the circumference of the axis of the material-collecting claw 86. The axial through hole 860 of the material-collecting claw 86 is formed by connecting a large diameter hole 861, a frustum hole 862, and a small diameter hole 863 in sequence. The small diameter hole 863 and the frustum hole 862 are located in the claw portion 868. A positioning plane is provided on the outside of the connecting portion 867 of the material-collecting claw 86.

[0111] like Fig.16 , Fig.17 As shown:

[0112] The material taking tool has a fixed plate 84, and the fixed plate 84 is fixed to the lower end of the swing plate Z axis 81 (a cylinder in this embodiment).

[0113] The cylinder rod (not shown in the figure) of the cylinder 82 (the cylinder 82 is an ultra-thin cylinder) is fixed on the fixed plate 84, and the cylinder body of the cylinder 82 is fixed on the connecting plate 83. A material picking claw 86 is fixed at the lower end of the fixed plate 84, and a push rod 85 fixed at the lower end of the connecting plate 83 passes through the fixed plate 84 and extends into the axial through hole 860 provided with the material picking claw 86.

[0114] The diameter of the push rod 85 is smaller than the diameter of the large diameter hole 861 but larger than the diameter of the small diameter hole 863 , and the bottom 851 of the push rod 85 is in a frustum shape.

[0115] A positioning block 87 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the fixing plate 84 , and the material picking claw 86 passes through the positioning block 87 . Several positioning rods 871 extending downward from the positioning block 87 surround the claw portion 868 of the material picking claw 86 and form a square space.

[0116] The working process of this scheme is as follows: the material picking tool is installed on the swing plate Z axis 81 of the InsertModing cutting and swinging plate integrated machine. The swing plate Z axis 81 can drive the fixed plate 84 and the entire material picking tool to move along the Z axis.

[0117] In the initial state, the cylinder rod of the cylinder 82 is in an extended state, the cylinder body of the cylinder 82 is lifted up and located at the upper working position, and the push rod 85 is in a retracted state; when the fixing plate 84 moves downward along the Z-axis direction, so that the claw portion 868 of the material-picking claw 86 extends into the circular through hole 21 of the insert-molded product 20, the cylinder rod of the cylinder 82 retracts, and the cylinder body of the cylinder 82 moves downward, driving the connecting plate 83 and the push rod 85 to press down, and the push rod 85 is pressed down, and the cone-shaped bottom 851 of the push rod 85 presses against and pushes the cone hole 81. After the inner wall 864 of 62 is reached, the four claws 866 are driven to open outward to support the circular through hole 21 of the embedded molded product 20; when the fixed plate 84 moves upward along the Z axis, the claws 868 carry the embedded molded product 20 to realize the grabbing action of the product; when it reaches the position where it needs to be put down, the cylinder rod of the cylinder 82 is extended, the cylinder body of the cylinder 82 is lifted up, the push rod 85 retreats, the four claws 866 rebound, the circular through hole 21 of the embedded molded product 20 loses support, and the embedded molded product 20 is put down.

[0118] While the claw portion 868 of the picking claw 86 extends into the circular through hole 21 of the embedded molded product 20, several positioning rods 871 extending downward from the positioning block 87 surround the embedded molded product 20. Since the positioning block 87 and the picking claw 86 move synchronously, the positioning block 87 can prevent the embedded molded product 20 from rotating during the operation of the equipment.

[0119] The working process of the present invention is as follows:

[0120] After the equipment is turned on and powered on, press the reset button on the touch screen 3, and the controller electrically connected to the touch screen 3 controls the longitudinal cutting cylinder 1, the ultra-thin cylinder 911 of the cutting and picking tooling 5, the cutting X-axis 6, the swing plate Z-axis 81, the swing plate X-axis 10, the swing plate Y-axis 8, the cylinder 82 of the swing plate picking tooling 5, the rodless cylinder, the storage X-axis 15, the storage Z-axis 16, and the crisp plate clamp 17 to reset to the starting position (0 position).

[0121] 4. Cutting and unloading process:

[0122] Press the start button on the touch screen 3, the servo motor of the belt tooling 7 starts to operate, and the material belt 100 is automatically fed; the longitudinal cutting cylinder 1 is pressed down until the lower limit magnetic switch of the cylinder lights up, the cylinder rod of the ultra-thin cylinder 911 is retracted, and the lower end of the material taking whisker 918 is obliquely extended under the embedded molded product 20, the longitudinal cutting cylinder 1 rises, and the material taking whisker 918 lifts the edge of the circular through hole 21 of the embedded molded product 20, and then lifts the embedded molded product 20, and takes the material away with the rise of the upper mold frame, rises to mid-air, and completes the material taking work; until the upper limit magnetic switch of the longitudinal cutting cylinder 1 lights up. In this way, 8 embedded molded products 20 are obtained, and the ultra-thin cylinder 911 in the four ultra-thin cylinders 911 carries two embedded molded products 20.

[0123] The cutting X-axis 6 moves to the product placement position 1 of the docking and dividing mechanism 12, and the longitudinal cutting cylinder 1 is pressed down until the lower limit magnetic switch lights up. The cylinder rod of an ultra-thin cylinder 911 is pushed out, and the material taking whisker 918 shrinks into the oblique through hole 9172, and two embedded molded products 20 are placed on the docking and dividing mechanism 12.

[0124] The longitudinal cutting cylinder 1 rises, and the cutting X-axis 6 moves to the product placement position 2 of the docking and dividing mechanism 12 to place the product. This time, the cylinder rod of another ultra-thin cylinder 911 is pushed out, and two embedded molded products 20 are also placed on the docking and dividing mechanism 12.

[0125] In this way, the products are placed in four times in total; 8 embedded molded products 20 are placed on the docking and dividing mechanism 12 according to the arrangement rule of the crisp discs.

[0126] When the fourth placement of the product is completed, the cutting X-axis 6 moves back to the cutting station and repeats the above cutting and placing process.

[0127] 5. Fixed-point positioning process:

[0128] When the cutting X-axis 6 is displaced to place the product, the drawing tool 7 synchronously completes the feeding action and waits for the cutting action. The side cutting cylinder 2 uses the cutting tool at its end to cut off the material strip 100 that has been cut into products.

[0129] When the cutting X-axis 6 completes four product placements and moves back to the cutting station, a start signal is issued; the swing plate X-axis 10 and the swing plate Y-axis 8 move to the docking material distribution mechanism 12, the swing plate Z-axis 81 moves down to its position, the swing plate material picking tooling 11 moves, the cylinder rod of the cylinder 82 retracts, and drives the four claws 866 to open outward to support the circular through hole 21 of the embedded molded product 20 to complete the product grabbing; then the swing plate Z-axis 81 returns to its position, the swing plate X-axis 10 and the swing plate Y-axis 8 move to the first product placement point of the swing plate station 13, the swing plate Z-axis 81 moves down to its position, the cylinder rod of the cylinder 82 of the swing plate material picking tooling cylinder 11 extends out, the four claws 866 rebound, the circular through hole 21 of the embedded molded product 20 loses its support, and the embedded molded product 20 is put down.

[0130] Then the Y-axis 8, Z-axis 81 and X-axis 10 of the swing plate return to the starting point, waiting for the start signal given by the cutting X-axis 6 after placing 4 products, and completing the above repeated fixed-point positioning swing plate process.

[0131] 6. Warehousing process:

[0132] When all the crispy plates at the platter station 13 are full, the platter station 13 and the platter station 2 14 complete the position switching through the rodless cylinder; when the position switching completion signal between the platter station 13 and the platter station 2 14 is issued, the storage X-axis 15 moves to the material picking point 1 of the platter station 2 14, the storage Z-axis 16 moves down to its position, the crispy plate clamp 17 completes the clamping of the full crispy plates, the storage Z-axis 16 moves up to position 0, the storage X-axis 15 moves to the crispy plate placement point 1 of the storage station 19, the storage Z-axis 16 moves down to place the full crispy plates, and then the storage Z-axis 16 moves up to position 0, the storage X-axis 15 moves to the material picking point 2 of the platter station 2 14, completes the crispy plate grabbing process, and moves to the crispy plate placement point 2 of the storage station 19 to place the full crispy plates. A plurality of crispy plates are placed on the plate placing station 1 13 and the plate placing station 2 14 respectively, so the material taking point 1 corresponds to the crispy plate placing point 1, the material taking point 2 corresponds to the crispy plate placing point 2, and so on.

[0133] After the plating is completed and the crisp plates are placed, the storage X position 15 moves to the empty crisp plate placement station 18, the storage Z axis 16 descends, the crisp plate clamp 17 grabs the empty crisp plate placed in the empty crisp plate placement station 18, the storage Z axis 16 ascends to position 0, and the storage X axis 15 moves to complete the replenishment of the empty crisp plates in the plating station two 14; wait for the switching of the plating station one 13 and the plating station two 14, and then repeat the above storage process.

[0134] When the crisp disks at the storage station 19 are stacked to a certain number, they are taken away manually.
