[0030] Among them, there is a demolding machine 1, a riser cutting device 2, an external cylindrical grinding device 3, a manual grinding station 4, a single-head cutting machine 5a, a double-head cutting machine 5b, a chamfering device 6, a shot blasting device 7, a gripping and unloading device 8, and a loading and unloading buffer device 9. Detailed Implementation

[0031] This embodiment includes a riser cutting device 2, a first marking device, an external cylindrical grinding device 3, a cutting device, a length measuring device, a second marking device, a shrinkage detection device, a waste ejection device, a first dividing device, a first shot blasting device 7, a chamfering device 6, a second shot blasting device 7, a conveying device, a data acquisition module, and several weighing devices.

[0032] After being demolded by the demolding machine 1, the bar stock is conveyed to the working position of the riser cutting device 2 via a conveying device. The conveying device uses a roller conveyor belt. The clamping component of the riser cutting device 2 holds the bar stock, and then cuts the riser on the bar stock. After the riser cutting device 2 cuts the riser on the bar stock, the first marking device marks the bar stock with a unique identification mark, which is a serial number. Each bar stock that passes through the riser cutting device 2 will be marked with a serial number by the first marking device. At the same time, the load-bearing device built into the riser cutting device 2 supports the bar stock after the riser is cut. The load-bearing device uses a cylinder to lift the bar stock, weigh it, and then put it back. After that, the clamping component of the riser cutting device 2 releases the bar stock, and the conveying device conveys the bar stock to the external cylindrical grinding device 3.

[0033] The external cylindrical grinding device 3 performs centerless external cylindrical grinding on the bar stock after the first marking step, grinding the bar stock into a uniform cylindrical shape. The external cylindrical grinding device 3 also has a built-in load-bearing device to weigh the ground bar stock. Afterwards, the bar stock passes through the conveyor belt and cutting device.

[0034] The clamping part of the cutting device holds the bar stock in place, and then cuts it according to a set program. After cutting, a second marking device marks the cut bar stock with a unique identification mark, which is also a serial number, so that each cut bar stock has a unique identification mark. A length measuring device inside the cutting device measures the length of the cut bar stock using a grating ruler. A load-bearing device inside the cutting device supports the weight of the cut bar stock. Then, the clamping part of the cutting device releases the bar stock, and the conveying device transports the bar stock to the shrinkage detection device.

[0035] The shrinkage cavity detection device uses a visual recognition system to detect the total area of ​​pores on the cut surface of the bar stock. When the total area exceeds a set value, it is considered a defective product. The scrap ejection device ejects the defective bar stock detected by the shrinkage cavity detection and scraps it. Preferably, it also includes a sand removal device, which cleans the qualified bar stock after passing through the shrinkage cavity detection device. The qualified bar stock is divided into two lines according to the cutting length by the first dividing device. The longer bar stock is sent to the first shot blasting device 7 for shot blasting treatment via a conveyor line. The shorter bar stock is sent to the chamfering device 6 via a conveyor line. The clamping component of the chamfering device 6 clamps the short bar stock and chamfers it. After the chamfering treatment is completed, the clamping component of the chamfering device 6 releases the short bar stock, and the short bar stock is sent to the second shot blasting device 7 for shot blasting treatment via a conveyor device.

[0036] This embodiment also includes a data acquisition module. The data acquisition module collects and summarizes data from the bar stock's identification mark, riser cutting device 2, external cylindrical grinding device 3, cutting device, length measuring device, shrinkage detection device, first shot blasting device 7, second shot blasting device 7, chamfering device 6, weighing device, and conveying device. After the summarized data is output, the operator can know the specific data of each bar stock in each process through the backend, which can achieve precise control of the processing technology, analyze in which process each defective product has a problem, and based on the collected data, even formulate special process parameters for different bars stock in the process steps to accurately improve the yield rate.

[0037] Preferably, the cutting machine includes a single-head cutting machine 5a and a double-head cutting machine 5b, meaning that in one production line, the single-head cutting machine 5a cuts one end of the bar stock simultaneously, while the double-head cutting machine 5b cuts both ends of the bar stock. Therefore, a second line-splitting device is also provided, which automatically distributes the bar stock after outer diameter grinding to the single-head cutting machine 5a and the double-head cutting machine 5b. This device can significantly improve cutting efficiency. Furthermore, it also includes a first paralleling device, which parallelizes the bar stock cut by the single-head cutting machine 5a and the double-head cutting machine 5b into a single line during the conveying process and sends it to the shrinkage detection device.

[0038] Similarly, two chamfering devices 6 can be installed to chamfer the bar stock simultaneously, improving chamfering efficiency. Correspondingly, a third splitting device is provided, which automatically distributes the short bar stock during the conveying process into two lines to the two chamfering devices 6. Further, a second merging device is included, which merges the short bar stock conveying lines that have passed through the two chamfering devices 6, and then feeds the merged stock into the second shot blasting device 7.

[0039] Preferably, it also includes a sorting and sorting device, which sorts and sorts the short bars after shot blasting. Further, it also includes a gripping and unloading device 8, which is a robotic arm, which grips and unloads the long and short bars from the finishing line.

[0040] This embodiment also includes a loading / unloading buffer device 9 on the riser cutting device 2, the external cylindrical grinding device 3, and the cutting device. This buffer device 9 is a structure that can store materials and retrieve or add materials at any time during the process steps. It can insert new bars or remove existing bars at any time before the riser cutting step, the external cylindrical grinding step, or the cutting step. Of course, temporarily inserted bars should also be identified, and a bar scanning device should be used to identify the temporarily loaded and unloaded bars. Since the bars in this embodiment are identified and authenticated at each process step, temporarily loaded or unloaded bars will not affect other bars or the entire production line.

[0041] Preferably, in the external cylindrical grinding process, a manual grinding station 4 is also provided. The manual grinding station 4 uses manual labor to perform external cylindrical grinding on the bar stock. The manual grinding station 4 runs in parallel with the external cylindrical grinding device 3 to improve grinding efficiency. The manual grinding station 4 can further perform manual grinding on the bar stock that has undergone external cylindrical grinding, optimize the grinding results, and improve product quality.

[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
