[0055] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0056] The specific embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0057] In order to solve the problems of the existing technology and meet the market's urgent need for a method for continuous feeding laser cutting pipes with short tails, low cost and simple operation, this application designs a continuous feeding method for intelligent pulling materials, such as Figure 1 As shown, the intelligent pulling method provided by the present application uses at least two axes, namely the Y-axis and the B-axis, wherein the B-axis is the rotation axis of the hollow chuck B, and the Y-axis carries the cutting head and the auxiliary clamping mechanism K to move.

[0058] Before describing the intelligent material drawing method provided in the present application, the necessary parameters involved in the intelligent material drawing method provided in the present application are first defined and set.

[0059] Please continue to read for details Figure 2 , pipe length L, that is, the total length of the pipe to be processed. Clamping length l, that is, the length clamped inside the hollow chuck, this length cannot be processed. Distance between the hollow chuck and the nozzle, that is, the distance between the nozzle and the hollow chuck when the cutting head is at the closest position to pull the material, this length cannot be processed. The closest pulling position Y1 is generally set at the position closest to the hollow chuck. First, the closer the pipe is, the less affected by gravity and the smallest deformation; second, the closer it is, the longer the length that can be pulled out; third, the closer the tail is, the shorter the tail. The farthest pulling position Y2 is set according to the processing parts and mechanical limit settings. If the processing parts are long, it can be set to a farther position to reduce the number of pulls and improve the cycle time; if the processing parts are short, it can be set to a closer position to reduce deformation and ensure accuracy; if the processing parts are short and there is no precision requirement, it can also be set far. This method can pull and process multiple parts at a time, reduce the number of pulls, improve the cycle time, and maximize production efficiency.

[0060] The following is a detailed introduction to the intelligent material pulling method provided by this application. Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 This is a flow chart of the first embodiment of the intelligent material pulling method provided by this application. Figure 4 yes Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the specific process of the intelligent material pulling method shown.

[0061] The intelligent material pulling method of the present application is applied to an intelligent material pulling device, wherein the intelligent material pulling device of the present application may include a server, or may include a system in which a server and a terminal device cooperate with each other. Accordingly, the various parts of the intelligent material pulling device, such as the various units, subunits, modules, and submodules, may be all set in the server, or may be separately set in the server and the terminal device.

[0062] Furthermore, the above-mentioned server can be hardware or software. When the server is hardware, it can be implemented as a distributed server cluster consisting of multiple servers, or it can be implemented as a single server. When the server is software, it can be implemented as multiple software or software modules, such as software or software modules used to provide distributed servers, or it can be implemented as a single software or software module, which is not specifically limited here. In some possible implementations, the intelligent material pulling method of the embodiment of the present application can be implemented by a processor calling computer-readable instructions stored in a memory.

[0063] Specifically, if Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the intelligent material pulling method of the embodiment of the present application specifically includes the following steps:

[0064] Step S11: Move the clamping mechanism to the nearest material pulling position and use the clamping mechanism to clamp the pipe.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present application, the pipe to be cut is placed in place to ensure that the pipe can be in a position where it can be clamped by the clamping mechanism K. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The states of the hollow chuck and the clamping mechanism are set as follows: the hollow chuck B clamps the pipe, and the clamping mechanism K is in a loose state.

[0066] In the embodiment of the present application, the intelligent pulling device controls the Y axis to carry the clamping mechanism K to move to Figure 2 The nearest position of the pulling material in the pipe is Y1. The intelligent pulling device controls the clamping mechanism K to clamp the pipe, and after clamping, controls the hollow chuck B to release the pipe.

[0067] Step S12: Calculate the optimal drawing length based on the processing trajectory of the pipe.

[0068] In an embodiment of the present application, the intelligent pulling device calculates the optimal pulling length based on the processing trajectory of the pipe, wherein the optimal pulling length determines the moving distance of the clamping mechanism, that is, the pulling distance of the pipe.

[0069] Specifically, the intelligent pulling device can calculate the length of a processing pattern and use the length of a processing pattern as the optimal pulling length; it can also calculate the total length of multiple processing patterns on the pipe and use this total length as the optimal pulling length.

[0070] In the embodiment of the present application, the intelligent pulling device can also be used as follows Figure 5 and Figure 6 The method for calculating the optimal pull length is shown in .

[0071] Specifically, if Figure 5 As shown, the intelligent material pulling method of step S12 specifically includes the following sub-steps:

[0072] Step S121: sequentially superimpose and calculate the length of each processing figure in the processing trajectory.

[0073] In the embodiment of the present application, the intelligent material pulling device obtains all the processing graphics in the processing trajectory and obtains the processing order of all the processing graphics. The intelligent material pulling device sequentially calculates the length of each processing graphic in the processing trajectory according to the processing order.

[0074] In addition, the intelligent pulling device can also obtain the remaining length of the pipe before superimposing and calculating the length of the processing graphics. , and then determine whether the total length of the part where the processing graphics is located exceeds the remaining pipe length If so, it means the current tube does not meet the processing requirements of a part. This tube is processed, cutting stops, the cutting head is raised, and the Y-axis carrying the clamping mechanism K moves to the closest material pulling position Y1. The hollow chuck B is controlled to output, and the tube is released, waiting for the next loading. If not, the length of each processing pattern in the processing trajectory is calculated sequentially.

[0075] Step S122: During the superposition calculation process, determine whether the superposition length exceeds a preset length threshold.

[0076] In the embodiment of the present application, the intelligent pulling device calculates the length of each processed graphic according to the processing sequence, that is, executes the judgment logic of steps S122 to S124.

[0077] Specifically, during the superposition calculation process, the intelligent pulling device determines whether the superposition length after superimposing the processing graphics of the current processing sequence exceeds the preset length threshold; if exceeded, it enters step S123; if not, it enters step S124.

[0078] The preset length threshold can be obtained by the difference between the closest pulling position Y1 and the farthest pulling position Y2 of the pipe material, and the preset length threshold is Y2-Y1.

[0079] Step S123: Eliminate the currently superimposed processing graphics to obtain the optimal drawing length.

[0080] In the embodiment of the present application, when the current stacking length is greater than Y2-Y1, the intelligent pulling device returns to the stacking length of the last processed graphic and uses it as the optimal pulling length. .

[0081] Step S124: Continue to superimpose the next processing graphic.

[0082] In the embodiment of the present application, when the current stacking length is less than Y2-Y1, the intelligent pulling device continues to stack the next processing pattern and returns to step S121.

[0083] Step S13: Using the clamping mechanism to run the optimal material pulling length, using the hollow chuck to clamp the pipe, and releasing the clamping mechanism on the pipe.

[0084] In the embodiment of the present application, the intelligent pulling device controls the Y-axis to carry the clamping mechanism K to pull the material, and the running distance is the optimal pulling length calculated in step S13. After the material pulling is completed, the intelligent material pulling device controls the hollow chuck B to clamp the pipe. After the hollow chuck B clamps the pipe, it controls the clamping mechanism K to release the pipe.

[0085] Step S14: Control the cutting head to cut the pipe according to the current processing pattern.

[0086] In an embodiment of the present application, the intelligent pulling device controls the cutting head to start cutting the pipe from the current position.

[0087] Furthermore, after the intelligent material pulling device completes cutting the pipe according to the current processing pattern, it determines whether the next processing pattern exceeds the nearest material pulling position Y1.

[0088] If the next processing pattern does not exceed the nearest position Y1 of the material pulling, the existing clamping state will continue to be maintained, and the pipe will be cut according to the next processing pattern, and the cutting position of this time will be superimposed and recorded. , and then the new remaining pipe length can be calculated .

[0089] in, is the pipe length, is the clamping length, is the distance between the hollow chuck B and the cutting head.

[0090] If the next processing pattern exceeds the nearest position Y1 of the pulling material, continue to judge whether the length of the next processing pattern exceeds the remaining pipe length If it exceeds, stop cutting, raise the cutting head, control the Y axis to carry the clamping mechanism K to move to the nearest position Y1 for pulling the material, control the output port of the hollow chuck B, release the pipe, and wait for the next loading; if it does not exceed, stop cutting, raise the cutting head, and return to step S12 to realize the circular feeding.

[0091] In an embodiment of the present application, the intelligent pulling device uses a hollow chuck to clamp the pipe to be cut; runs the clamping mechanism to the nearest pulling position, and uses the clamping mechanism to clamp the pipe, and releases the hollow chuck on the pipe; calculates the optimal pulling length based on the processing trajectory of the pipe; uses the clamping mechanism to run the distance of the optimal pulling length, uses the hollow chuck to clamp the pipe, and releases the clamping mechanism on the pipe; controls the cutting head to cut the pipe at the current position. The above-mentioned intelligent pulling method only uses one hollow chuck and an auxiliary clamping mechanism, which greatly reduces costs and is easy to assemble and operate. Compared with the traditional double hollow chuck pushing method, the tail material is shorter when using the pulling method, and almost only the clamping part cannot be cut, avoiding waste of pipes and increasing user benefits. Users can freely configure the maximum pull-out length allowed while taking into account precision and efficiency. The optimal pulling length is calculated based on intelligent calculation to ensure that the pull-out length is closest to the hollow chuck, minimizing deformation caused by gravity and improving processing accuracy. The operation is simple, and only 5 parameters need to be set to achieve the continuous feeding function.

[0092] Please continue reading Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 This is a flow chart of the second embodiment of the intelligent material pulling method provided by this application. Figure 8 yes Figure 7 Schematic diagram of the specific process of the intelligent material pulling method shown.

[0093] Specifically, if Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the intelligent material pulling method of the embodiment of the present application specifically includes the following steps:

[0094] Step S21: Detect whether an abnormal stop occurs midway.

[0095] In the embodiment of the present application, the intelligent pulling device detects whether an abnormal stop occurs midway. If so, it enters step S22.

[0096] Step S22: Read the cut distance saved before the interruption, and continue cutting from the current point based on the cut distance.

[0097] In the embodiment of the present application, the intelligent pulling device reads the current Y-axis position , read the superimposed cut distance recorded before stopping , read the processing trajectory number.

[0098] The intelligent pulling device determines whether the interruption is during the opening and cutting process:

[0099] If during the cutting process, The cut distance is added and the process proceeds to step S14 in the above embodiment to continue cutting the pipe from the current point.

[0100] If the feeding process is in progress, the intelligent pulling device controls the X axis to return to the center of the pipe and determines whether the next processing pattern exceeds the nearest pulling position Y1. If it exceeds, the material will continue to be pulled from the current point, and the pulling distance is If it does not exceed, then go to step S14 in the above embodiment and continue cutting the pipe from the current point.

[0101] In the embodiment of the present application, the intelligent pulling device can continue cutting on the current pipe after an abnormal interruption, thereby avoiding waste of pipes and increasing user benefits.
