Abstract
Description

[0002] In the injection molding industry, when the implanted object is a non-metallic, non-magnetic soft material mesh with a small size of 8mm long, 2mm wide and 0.05mm thick, the mesh currently used in the production field has static electricity and holes, so it cannot be sucked up with a suction cup (1. It will leak, 2. It is not easy to suck up due to static electricity), nor can it be sucked up with an electromagnetic (non-metallic, non-magnetic). At the same time, because the mesh is very light, it is easy to shift when sucked and implanted, which poses great difficulties for the existing non-metallic mesh for suction and implantation.

[0066] The present invention automatically sucks the cut mesh cloth to the positioning mechanism through the automatic cutting and feeding mechanism, and after precise positioning, the six-axis robot suction and implantation module is connected to automatically implant the mesh cloth into the mold, thereby solving the shortcomings of low efficiency of manual implantation and multiple corrections required for deviation, and achieving an implantation accuracy of more than 98%.

A method for automatically cutting and implanting ultra-thin soft materials, characterized in that: The following steps are involved: Providing an ultra-thin soft material automatic cutting and implanting device as claimed in any one of claims 1 to 7; Press the mesh onto the release film, and then automatically cut the mesh into shape; Use the contoured suction nozzle to automatically suck the cut mesh and place it on the positioning mechanism for positioning; Use the six-axis robot to suck up the mesh on the positioning mechanism with the contoured suction nozzle of the implantation module; Use the CCD detection module outside the mold to automatically detect whether the mesh sucked by the contour nozzle is offset; The six-axis robot suction and implantation module will automatically implant the mesh that has been judged to be OK into the mold, and then the CCD detection module in the mold will detect whether it is offset. If it is judged to be OK, the mold will be closed for injection molding.
