Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of hydraulic press technology, and particularly relates to a control system and control method for a CBR-based fast forging press. Background Technology

[0002] Forging is a basic process for metal plastic processing. With the increasingly widespread application of high-speed forging hydraulic presses, more and more high-speed forging hydraulic presses are being installed at user sites.

[0003] When forging billets on a high-speed forging hydraulic press, the accuracy of the forging process is directly affected by variations in material, number of pumps, and number of cylinders. Currently, operators typically allow for a margin of 5mm or more based on the required forging dimensions to prevent overshooting during high-speed forging, and then ensure the accuracy of the forging through subsequent machining. This results in longer processing time and lower material utilization. Therefore, we propose a high-speed forging press control system and method based on CBR (Continuous Braking System).

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the upper-filled oil tank 1 includes an oil tank housing 1.1, a filter 1.2, and a pipeline connected to the outside; the filter 1.2 is installed on the top of the oil tank housing 1.1.

[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the pump unit 2 includes an electric motor 2.1, a metering pump 2.2, a safety valve 2.3, a solenoid valve 2.4, and pipelines connected to the outside.

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the main body 3 of the high-speed forging press further includes a displacement sensor 3.1, a slider 3.4, and a pipeline connected to the outside; one end of the displacement sensor 3.1 is fixed on the main body 3 of the high-speed forging press, and the other end of the displacement sensor 3.1 is connected to the slider 3.4 for measuring the position of the slider; the main cylinder 3.2, the side cylinder 3.3, and the return cylinder 3.5 are all connected to the slider 3.4; there are two of each of the side cylinder 3.3 and the return cylinder 3.5.

[0052] In this embodiment of the invention, preferably, when the fast forging press is working, the slider 3.4 moves up and down, and it is necessary to control the accuracy and repeatability of the pressing position of the slider 3.4.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the lower power oil tank 4 includes a liquid level sensor 4.1, an oil tank housing 4.2, an air filter 4.3, and a pipeline connected to the outside; the liquid level sensor 4.1 is fixed on one side of the oil tank housing 4.2; the oil tank housing 4.2 is connected to the oil tank housing 1.1 through the pipeline; the air filter 4.3 is fixed on the top of the oil tank housing 4.2.

[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the return valve block 5 includes a safety valve 5.1, a slider downward ball valve 5.2, a downward speed regulating valve 5.3, a return speed regulating valve 5.4, and a pipeline connected to the outside.

[0062] When the fast forging press is working, the slide block 3.4 continuously repeats the downward and return process. When the slide block 3.4 presses the forging by moving up and down, the displacement sensor 3.1 detects the displacement of the slide block 3.4 to obtain the actual height of the forging. Once the slide block 3.4 presses to the set position, it is necessary to control the pressure relief valve group 7 of the main side cylinder to release pressure. The fast forging accumulator unit 6 releases the compressed hydraulic oil to the two return cylinders 3.5 through the servo valve 6.2, driving the slide block 3.4 to return.
