Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of robot milling processing, and in particular relates to a robot milling system suitable for part edge processing and a control method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the manufacturing process of heavy industry products such as ships, offshore engineering, and steel structures, a large number of parts are the most basic units that make up the final large-scale products. Generally, the edges of parts need to be processed to meet the requirements of paint adhesion, usually by rounding, so as to reduce corrosion in harsh environments such as the ocean, thereby extending the service life of the product. Relevant companies still generally use handheld angle grinders or chamfering machines to process the edges of parts. At present, based on intelligent technology, some manufacturers have developed some automatic chamfering equipment and methods for parts, but due to the wide variety of part types, the equipment is incompatible, which not only leads to generally low equipment efficiency, but also adds additional sorting and maintenance content, so that customers' essential needs for "machine replacement" cannot be met. In addition, whether a large number of parts are turned over also greatly limits the scope of application of the clamping and positioning device of the automatic chamfering equipment. Usually, the existing equipment uses a flip machine or a customized flip mechanism to manually optimize the processing process (to achieve flipping and chamfering) to make up for the change in beat caused by forced flipping due to process shortcomings. More conventionally, edge processing equipment usually uses manual flipping, which is not only labor-intensive, but also has high operational risks.
[0003] Therefore, existing technologies and equipment are unable to effectively guarantee efficient, high-quality automated chamfering of local edge features of massive and diverse parts, and cannot meet the application requirements of “machine replacement” under actual working conditions.
