Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automation equipment, more particularly, to a full-automatic feeding and discharging machine for a hot press. BACKGROUND
[0002] Powder metallurgy is a process technology that uses metal powder (or a mixture of metal powder and non-metal powder) as raw material to make various shaped parts after pressing and sintering, and its process flow generally includes three steps of mixing, pressing and sintering to obtain finished products. In the production process, the blank needs to be placed into the hot press for hot pressing work. The existing feeding and discharging work is generally completed manually or automatically by machine one by one. For example, a full-automatic feeding and discharging machine is disclosed in Chinese patent (Publication No. CN205439037U). In this patent technology, the operator needs to manually put the product into the feeding box first, then the X-axis robot sucks the product into the lower mold of the hot pressing equipment one by one, and after hot pressing molding, the X-axis robot sucks the semi-finished product into the semi-finished product recycling box one by one, and finally the operator takes out the material at once when the semi-finished product recycling box is full, which can reduce the labor intensity to a certain extent. However, manual intervention is still more time-consuming and labor-intensive, which reduces the production efficiency. At the same time, the semi-finished product after hot pressing has a high temperature, which is easy to scald the operator, and the safety factor is low. Moreover, the product feeding time in this patent technology is long, which causes the hot press to need to be kept in the open mold state for a long time, resulting in serious heat loss and increasing the production cost, which is not suitable for large-scale production.
