Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of laser processing, and in particular to a three-dimensional curved surface workpiece calibration method and device of a laser processing robot. Background Art

[0002] In the application scenario of the laser processing robot, the laser processing head is installed at the end of the six-axis articulated arm robot. The movement of the robot arm drives the laser processing head to the specified position and processes the workpiece according to the planned path. In this process, the robot coordinate system must first be established for the laser processing head and the robot arm. There are many mature ways to achieve this step, such as the base point calibration method. In the process of importing the laser processing head into the robot coordinates, the workpiece needs to be calibrated. The calibration method for the workpiece is usually to manually affix calibration points at specified positions on the surface of the workpiece, and then operate the robot arm to change its posture so that the laser processing head is aligned with each calibration point in turn, and the robot posture of each calibration point is recorded, thereby calculating the robot coordinate system coordinate value of each marked point, thereby realizing the calibration of the workpiece.

[0003] However, this manual marking method is not conducive to automated operation, and for workpieces made of special materials, marking points on the workpiece surface will damage the workpiece. In many special processing environments, manual marking points are not allowed, so this method of setting calibration points has great limitations. In order to achieve contactless generation of calibration points, the present invention proposes a new method and device for setting marking points, which can achieve high-precision, efficient, safe, fast and contactless generation of marking points on the workpiece surface. Summary of the invention

The method of generating calibration points on the surface of a three-dimensional curved workpiece using a combination of laser indicator light can achieve non-contact, efficient, safe and rapid generation of calibration points on the workpiece surface, greatly improving the automation level of laser processing equipment. In addition, the present invention also provides a related supporting device for realizing the three-dimensional curved workpiece calibration method of a laser processing robot, and the device can be used to indicate the laser focus or focal plane, which greatly facilitates laser users to determine the focus or focal plane of the laser, and has the advantages of visualization, easy operation and non-contact.

[0013] Among them, when there are obvious feature points on the workpiece surface:

[0014] Import the three-dimensional model data of the workpiece into the robot coordinate system, and calculate the orthogonal deflection angle of the servo motor corresponding to each laser indicator light when the indicator light emitted by each group of laser indicator light combination devices converges on the feature point selected on the surface of the three-dimensional model of the workpiece in the robot coordinate system;

[0017] Furthermore, each group of laser indicator light combination devices emits light of different colors, and each laser indicator light in each group of laser indicator light combination devices has the same wavelength and emits light of the same color, so that it is convenient to distinguish the laser convergence points formed by each group of laser indicator light combination devices, so as to facilitate subsequent operations: the calculated positions of each laser convergence point in the robot coordinate system are overlapped one by one with each laser convergence point (identified by color) on the surface of the three-dimensional model of the workpiece; or the laser convergence points formed by each group of laser indicator light combination devices are overlapped one by one with the selected feature points (identified by color) on the surface of the workpiece.

[0018] Furthermore, each set of laser indicator light combination devices includes laser indicator lights A1 and A2, and the laser indicator lights A1 and A2 are β The directions are mutually orthogonal and intersect at the origin A 0, thus constructing a three-dimensional coordinate system, the laser indicator light A1 and the laser indicator light A2 are driven by their respective servo motors and deflected in two orthogonal directions until the emitted indicator light converges in the three-dimensional coordinate system to form a laser convergence point P The indicator light lines of laser indicator lights A1 and A2 are l 1 and l 2 The intersection point of the two straight lines is P。

[0025] .

[0026] Among them, laser indicator lights A1 and A2 are fixed points on the laser processing head, and their robot coordinate system coordinates can be obtained by robot reference point calibration. The robot coordinate system positions of laser indicator lights A1 and A2 in each group of laser indicator light combination devices on the laser processing head are and ; is the intersection of the β rotation directions of the laser indicator lights A1 and A2; the indicator light lines of the laser indicator lights A1 and A2 are l 1 and l 2 The intersection point of the two straight lines is P , the orthogonal deflection angles of laser indicators A1 and A2 are θ 1 , β 1 and θ 2 , β 2 , by directly reading the deflection angle of the servo motor, we can know that θ 1 , β 1 and θ 2 , β 2 That is, the angles between the laser indicator lights A1 and A2 and the coordinate axes X, Z and Y, Z respectively.

[0027] The above method can be used to obtain the robot coordinate system coordinates of the laser convergence point of each group of laser indicator light combination devices. Multiple groups of non-collinear laser indicator light combination devices are installed on the laser processing head. The laser indicator light in a single group has the same color, and the indicator light combination colors of different groups are different. In this way, multiple laser convergence points of different colors can be obtained.

[0029] Further, each group of laser indicator light combination devices emits light of different colors, and each laser indicator light in each group of laser indicator light combination devices emits light of the same color.

[0030] Furthermore, the laser processing head is driven to move by a robot arm.

[0031] In laser processing application scenarios, the laser emitted by the processing head often has a convergent focus. The different distances between the workpiece and the focus will affect the processing effect. Many laser products lack laser focus position indication signals, and the grasp of the laser focus or focal plane requires special testing and correction.

[0032] The third aspect of the present invention provides an application of the three-dimensional curved workpiece calibration device of the above-mentioned laser processing robot, which can be used to indicate the laser focus or focal plane, and can conveniently and quickly determine the laser focus or focal plane, and has the advantages of visualization, easy operation and non-contact.

[0050] In a specific embodiment, three groups of non-collinear laser indicator light combination devices 3 are arranged on the periphery of the laser processing head 2, and each group of laser indicator light combination devices 3 emits light of different colors. The wavelengths of the laser indicator lights in each group of laser indicator light combination devices 3 are the same and emit light of the same color.

[0051] S2. Place the workpiece 5 on the workbench 4, and converge the indication light emitted by each group of laser indication light combination devices 3 on the surface of the workpiece 5, so that each group of laser indication light combination devices 3 forms a laser convergence point.

[0052] In specific applications, the three groups of laser indicator light combination devices 3 emit red light, green light and blue light respectively, which converge on the surface of the workpiece 5 to form three laser convergence points, and the colors correspond to red light, green light and blue light respectively, so as to facilitate the distinction of the laser convergence points formed by each group of laser indicator light combination devices 3, so that in the subsequent steps, the calculated positions of each laser convergence point in the robot coordinate system can be overlapped one by one with each laser convergence point (identified by color) on the surface of the three-dimensional model of the workpiece 5.

[0053] like Figure 3 As shown, each group of laser indicator light combination devices 3 includes laser indicator lights A1 and A2. β The directions are mutually orthogonal and intersect at the origin A 0, thus constructing a three-dimensional coordinate system, laser indicator A1 and laser indicator A2 are driven by their own servo motors and are at two orthogonal angles θ , β Deflect (swing) upward until the emitted indicator light converges to form a laser convergence point in the three-dimensional coordinate system P The indicator light lines of laser indicator lights A1 and A2 are l 1 and l 2 The intersection point of the two straight lines is P .

[0054] S3. Calculate the position of each laser convergence point in the robot coordinate system according to the orthogonal deflection angle of the servo motor of each laser indicator light and the robot coordinate system position of the laser indicator light.

[0055] The mathematical model of the laser indicator light combination device 3 is shown in FIG4 . The robot coordinate system coordinates of the corresponding laser convergence point formed by each group of laser indicator light combination devices 3 are , the indicator light lines of laser indicators A1 and A2 l 1 and l 2 The parametric equation is:

[0056] ;

[0058] ;

[0059] or ;

[0060] The values ​​of parameters t and s in the above formula are calculated by the following formula:

[0061] .

[0062] Among them, the laser indicator lights A1 and A2 are fixed points on the laser processing head 2, and their robot coordinate system coordinates can be obtained by robot reference point calibration. The robot coordinate system positions of the laser indicator lights A1 and A2 in each group of laser indicator light combination devices 3 on the laser processing head 2 are respectively and ; is the intersection of the β rotation directions of the laser indicator lights A1 and A2; the indicator light lines of the laser indicator lights A1 and A2 are l 1 and l 2 The intersection point of the two straight lines is P , the orthogonal deflection angles of laser indicators A1 and A2 are θ 1 , β 1 and θ 2 , β 2 , by directly reading the deflection angle of the servo motor, we can know that θ 1 , β 1 and θ 2 , β 2 That is, the angles between the laser indicator lights A1 and A2 and the coordinate axes X, Z and Y, Z respectively.

[0063] The above method can be used to obtain the robot coordinate system coordinates of the laser convergence point of each group of laser indicator light combination devices 3. A plurality of non-collinear laser indicator light combination devices 3 are installed on the laser processing head 2. The laser indicator lights in a single group have the same color, while the indicator light combinations of different groups have different colors. Thus, a plurality of laser convergence points of different colors can be obtained.

[0064] S4. Use the 3D depth camera to perform a 3D scan on the workpiece 5 to establish a 3D model. The laser convergence point generated by the laser indicator light will also be scanned into the 3D model of the workpiece 5.

The specific calibration process diagram of this step is shown in FIG. Figure 5 shown.

[0065] In a specific embodiment, three groups of laser indicator light combination devices 3 emit red light, green light and blue light respectively, which converge on the surface of the workpiece 5 to form three laser convergence points, and the colors correspond to red light, green light and blue light respectively. The corresponding convergence points are P1, P2 and P3 respectively. The calibration process can be completed by rotating, translating and stretching the three-dimensional model of the workpiece 5 in the robot coordinate system so that P1, P2 and P3 coincide with the red point, green point and blue point on the three-dimensional model of the workpiece 5 respectively.

[0066] Finally, the laser processing path is planned, thereby successfully completing the calibration of the three-dimensional curved surface workpiece 5.

[0072] S3. According to the calculated orthogonal deflection angle value of the servo motor corresponding to the laser indicator light, the corresponding servo motor is driven, thereby driving the deflection of each corresponding laser indicator light on the laser processing head 2, and then the workpiece 5 is placed on the processing table 4, and the position of the workpiece 5 is adjusted so that each laser convergence point falls on the corresponding feature point of the workpiece 5, so that the calibration of the three-dimensional curved surface workpiece 5 can be realized.

Each group of laser indicator light combination devices 3 includes two laser indicator lights. Each laser indicator light is correspondingly provided with a servo motor. The servo motor controls the corresponding laser indicator light to deflect at two orthogonal angles θ and β. The laser processing head 2 is driven to move by the robot arm 1. A workbench 4 is arranged below the laser processing head 2, and a workpiece 5 is placed on the workbench 4.

[0075] In a specific embodiment, three groups of non-collinear laser indicator light combination devices 3 are arranged at the lower part of the outer periphery of the laser processing head 2, and each group of laser indicator light combination devices 3 emits light of different colors. The wavelength of each laser indicator light in each group of laser indicator light combination devices 3 is the same and emits light of the same color.

[0076] The above device can also be used to calibrate the focal position of the laser processing beam (such as Figure 7 As shown). According to the triangular relationship between the focal position of the laser beam output by the laser processing head 2 in the direction of the optical axis (the focal plane of the galvanometer lens is the plane perpendicular to the optical axis at this position) and the laser indicator light, pre-debug, set and record the swing angles of each indicator light so that the three laser indicator lights intersect at: 1) the focal position, 2) the focal plane, and record the swing angles of each indicator light when they intersect at each point (this step is the focus / focal plane calibration) for repeated calibration at any time.
