Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automobile parts processing, in particular to an automated processing method for processing large parts using a small processing center. Background Art
[0002] At present, large parts can be processed manually and efficiently in small machining centers. If it is applied to the gripper of automated processing, it will cause insufficient working space in the machining center and be difficult to achieve. Therefore, the following problems will arise in the existing large parts processing: 1. Using a small processing center to process and manually load and unload materials can achieve high-speed processing, but it requires a large number of people, high product costs, and lack of competitiveness; 2. Use medium-sized machining centers for processing, and use robots for loading and unloading. Robots can be used to reduce labor costs, but the equipment cost is high, the processing efficiency is low, and it lacks competitiveness; 3. The product price has been determined, and without the use of low-cost processing technology, the product will not be profitable; 4. The kinetic energy consumption and cutting fluid consumption of medium-sized machining centers are higher than those of small-sized machining centers, which increases the manufacturing cost of products. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an automated processing method for processing large parts using a small processing center. Large parts can be automatically processed using a small high-speed processing center, and robots can be used for loading and unloading parts, so that the production line can achieve unmanned processing.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: An automated processing method for processing large parts using a small processing center, the steps are as follows: 1) First, the part blank is pre-positioned using a fixing mechanism; 2) Secondly, use the 3D vision robot to take pictures of the parts position and transmit the position parameters to the picking robot; 3) Then, the first process is carried out, the hand grip uses the part shape to locate and clamp, the part is first grasped to the intermediate transition platform, and the part is accurately positioned for the second time; 4) After the precise positioning is completed, the first-order gripper is used to place the part on the first-order machining center to achieve precise positioning on the machine tool and start processing; 5) After the first sequence processing is completed, use another hand to grab the part to another station on the transition platform to realize part flipping and transposition; 6) Use the second-order hand grip to grab the parts and transfer them to another machining center to achieve the second-order processing; 7) After processing is completed, the machine hand grabs the parts and places them on the unloading conveyor belt.
[0005] Beneficial effects: By using the automated processing method for processing large parts with a small processing center described in the present invention, a unique robot double-handed claw process is designed, so that robot processing can be applied to a small high-speed processing center, and the working space of the processing center can meet the claw flipping requirements, so that large parts can be automatically processed by a small high-speed processing center; robots are used for loading and unloading parts, and the production line can realize unmanned processing; in this way, both high-speed processing of products and unmanned production lines are guaranteed, product processing costs are greatly reduced, and market competitiveness is greatly improved.
