[0038] The methods and embodiments provided in this application can be executed on a mobile terminal, computer terminal, or similar computing device. Taking running on a mobile terminal as an example, Figure 1 This is a hardware structure block diagram of a mobile terminal for an automatic inkjet printing method for heat treatment bundling according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, a mobile terminal may include one or more ( Figure 1 Only one is shown in the diagram. A processor 102 (which may include, but is not limited to, a microprocessor MCU or a programmable logic device FPGA, etc.) and a memory 104 for storing data are also shown.

Figure 1 The structure shown is for illustrative purposes only and does not limit the structure of the mobile terminal described above. For example, the mobile terminal may also include components that are more... Figure 1 The more or fewer components shown, or having the same Figure 1 The different configurations shown.

[0039] The memory 104 can be used to store computer programs, such as application software programs and modules, like the computer program corresponding to the automatic inkjet printing method for heat treatment bundling in this embodiment of the invention. The processor 102 executes various functional applications and data processing by running the computer program stored in the memory 104, thereby implementing the above-described method. The memory 104 may include high-speed random access memory, and may also include non-volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic storage devices, flash memory, or other non-volatile solid-state memory. In some instances, the memory 104 may further include memory remotely located relative to the processor 102, and these remote memories can be connected to a mobile terminal via a network. Examples of such networks include, but are not limited to, the Internet, corporate intranets, local area networks, mobile communication networks, and combinations thereof.

[0040] The transmission device 106 is used to receive or send data via a network. Specific examples of the network described above may include a wireless network provided by the mobile terminal's communication provider. In one example, the transmission device 106 includes a Network Interface Controller (NIC), which can connect to other network devices via a base station to communicate with the Internet. In another example, the transmission device 106 may be a Radio Frequency (RF) module used for wireless communication with the Internet.

[0041] This embodiment provides an automatic inkjet printing method for heat-treated bundling. Figure 2 This is a flowchart of an automatic inkjet printing method for heat-treated bundling according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the process includes the following steps:

[0042] Step S201: Obtain material feeding information from the control system;

[0043] In this embodiment, obtaining the feeding information from the control system is to enable other equipment such as the inkjet printer, palletizer, and robotic arm to enter the working state and ensure the accurate operation of the system.

[0044] The feeding information includes (but is not limited to) the type and quantity of materials, feeding time, equipment status, process parameters, etc. If necessary, it may also include the specifications of the materials and the environment during feeding (such as temperature and humidity).

[0045] Step S202: Upon receiving the feeding information, the printer sends the corresponding bundling printing information to the printer to instruct the printer to print the material. The bundling printing information includes the bundling number and initial material data.

[0046] In this embodiment, while automatically feeding materials, the packaging and printing information is sent to the inkjet printer, so that the inkjet printer can accurately print the relevant materials, thereby avoiding the problem that the information serial number cannot correspond to the physical object and the printing information when it is assigned to the next material due to quality or sampling issues.

[0047] The materials can be (but are not limited to) steel plates, packaging bags, etc. The information to be printed on the bundles includes (but is not limited to) the material conveying time, the content to be printed (such as product identification, production date, production batch, production specifications, etc.), information serial number, material location (position on the steel roller or conveyor belt and its position changes), etc.

[0048] It should be noted that, in the field of steel plate inkjet printing, when the process control system automatically feeds the material, it simultaneously sends the information for this bundle printing to the inkjet printer. This allows the inkjet printer to automatically and accurately receive the system data without the need for manual input of data such as the bundle number, steel type, and specifications. This reduces the error caused by manual input and enables automatic information transmission.

[0049] Through the above steps, by monitoring the material feeding information and printing data, the printing data can be automatically transmitted without manual operation, which improves the printing accuracy, solves the problem of low printing accuracy, and improves both printing accuracy and efficiency.

[0050] In an optional embodiment, after receiving the loading information and sending the bundling printing information corresponding to the loading information to the inkjet printer, the method further includes:

[0051] Step S203: Based on the bundled printing information, perform motion tracking on the material to determine the material transport information;

[0052] In this embodiment, the motion tracking of the material is to determine the actions of each device on the material during the material flow process, so that the inkjet printer can accurately print the material.

[0053] Action tracking includes (but is not limited to) tracking of actions such as path tracking, transportation status tracking, equipment operation tracking, material posture change tracking, and material flow tracking. Specific tracking methods can (but are not limited to) material identification through image acquisition equipment, tracking of material echoes through radar, tracking of signal changes of various devices, or other methods, depending on the actual type of action being tracked. Correspondingly, transport information includes (but is not limited to) transport path, transportation status, and changes in equipment operation signals.

[0054] It should be noted that the basic control system accurately tracks the steel plate information on the roller conveyor, ensuring the real-time and continuous transmission of steel plate information in the production line. In particular, when continuous steel plate numbers need to be printed, motion tracking can automatically match the steel plate serial numbers after secondary unpacking and repacking, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the number of steel plates and steel plate numbers in each bundle.

[0055] In an optional embodiment, after receiving the loading information and sending the bundling printing information corresponding to the loading information to the inkjet printer, the method further includes:

[0056] Step S204: Obtain printing completion information fed back by the inkjet printer, wherein the printing completion information includes first material data, and the first material data includes data of the material after printing is completed;

[0057] Step S205: Based on the printing completion information, a stacking instruction is sent to the stacker to instruct the stacker to stack the material, wherein the stacking instruction includes first material data.

[0058] In this embodiment, after the material is printed, the printed material is automatically stacked by a stacker crane, which improves the material handling process.

[0059] The first material data includes (but is not limited to) the position, orientation, and specifications of the material after printing.

[0060] It should be noted that the real-time information after the steel plate is printed is transmitted to the stacker, so that the stacker can automatically make real-time changes to the incoming material information based on the steel plate information, thereby realizing automatic stacking of length and width adjustment.

[0061] In an optional embodiment, obtaining the material feeding information from the control system includes:

[0062] Step S2011: Obtain material image information through image acquisition device and obtain system equipment action information through signal acquisition device;

[0063] In this embodiment, image processing technology is used to perform object recognition on the heat treatment bundles, which can determine the posture and position of the material bundles in real time, thereby facilitating accurate printing on the materials in the future.

[0064] Among them, the image acquisition device may (but is not limited to) be a camera, an infrared laser generator and its matching sensors, etc.; the signal acquisition device may (but is not limited to) be a signal sensor or sensing head for signal perception, etc.

[0065] Step S2012: Perform image feature processing on the material image information using a preset first model to determine the image feature matrix of the material image information; and perform motion feature processing on the equipment motion information using a preset second model to determine the motion feature matrix of the control system.

[0066] In this embodiment, the purpose of determining the image feature matrix and the motion feature matrix is ​​to cross-reference the image features of the material with the motions of each device during the material transport process, thereby determining whether the relevant device motions and / or the posture of the material are correct.

[0067] For example, if the image features indicate an error in the material, but the motion features show that the actions of each device are error-free, then it indicates that there is an abnormality in the tracking of the motion devices or the material feeding method.

[0068] It should be noted that both image feature processing and action feature processing can be implemented using corresponding algorithms. For example, image feature processing can be implemented using algorithms such as SIFT, SURF, and HOG, while action feature processing can be implemented using algorithms such as wavelet transform, convolutional neural networks, and recurrent neural networks.

[0069] Step S2013: Based on the image feature matrix and the action feature matrix, determine the material feeding information.

[0070] In this embodiment, after obtaining the image feature matrix and the action feature matrix, they are first matched with the preset image matrix and preset action matrix under normal conditions to determine whether the image feature matrix and the action feature matrix are normal. Then, the correlation between the image feature matrix and the action feature matrix is ​​calculated. If the correlation meets the requirements, it means that the image result matches the equipment action result. Then, the material specifications, feeding time and other information are determined based on the image features and the equipment action features. Otherwise, it means that there is an abnormality and an alarm is triggered.

[0071] In an optional embodiment, before acquiring material image information via the image acquisition device, the method further includes:

[0072] Step S201101: Obtain the environmental information of the inkjet printer, wherein the environmental information includes at least light intensity information;

[0073] Step S201102: Compare the light intensity information with a preset first light intensity.

[0074] Step S201103: If the first comparison result does not meet the illumination conditions, a light intensity alarm signal is sent to the control system; wherein, the illumination conditions include the light intensity information being greater than or equal to the first light intensity.

[0075] In this embodiment, since illumination affects the clarity of image acquisition, it is necessary to detect and identify the illumination intensity before image acquisition.

[0076] Light intensity information can be collected through light sensors or photometers, or through other methods.

[0077] In an optional embodiment, before sending the bundling printing information corresponding to the loading information to the inkjet printer upon receiving the loading information, the method further includes:

[0078] Step S20201: Obtain the environmental information of the inkjet printer, wherein the environmental information includes at least gas and dust information;

[0079] Step S20202: Based on the gas dust information, determine the gas dust concentration matrix;

[0080] Step S20203: Calculate the error between the gas dust concentration matrix and the preset dust matrix;

[0081] Step S20204: If the error calculation result does not meet the dust concentration condition, a stop printing signal is fed back to the control system, wherein the dust concentration condition includes the error calculation result being less than a preset concentration threshold.

[0082] In this embodiment, if the dust concentration in the surrounding environment is high during the printing process, it will greatly affect the printing effect. Moreover, the dust concentration in different areas will have different effects. Therefore, it is necessary to collect the dust concentration at different locations and determine whether the relevant dust concentration will affect the printing effect.

[0083] For example, the area around the inkjet printer is divided into nine zones, and dust concentration is collected in each zone to obtain a dust concentration matrix. Then, it interacts with the preset dust matrix. Error calculations are performed to obtain the error matrix. The error matrix is ​​then solved. If the solution of the error matrix is ​​greater than the concentration threshold, it is determined that the dust concentration in the environment around the inkjet printer is high and needs to be cleaned in time. This process is repeated.

[0084] The concentration threshold is preset according to the operating requirements of the inkjet printer.
