Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of groove cutting, and in particular to a robot intelligent groove cutting system and an operation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Bevel cutting is a technology that performs special cutting treatment on the edge of the material before welding. It generally refers to machining a groove of a certain shape and size on the edge of the material to be welded by mechanical or thermal cutting. This groove can be V-shaped, U-shaped, X-shaped, etc. The specific shape depends on the type and thickness of the welding material and the requirements of the welding process. Through reasonable cutting methods and process parameter selection, accurate processing and treatment of the material edge can also be achieved.

[0003] Bevel cutting is widely used in the pre-welding treatment of various metal materials, such as shipbuilding, petrochemical, pressure vessels, pipeline engineering and other fields. Through bevel cutting, the quality and strength of the welded joint can be ensured, and the welding efficiency and reliability can be improved. At present, bevel cutting equipment generally uses a simple control method for operation. This traditional control method requires manual or special machine cutting, as well as manual transfer, loading and unloading between multiple processes. In addition, each part needs manual teaching and positioning before cutting, and various data are manually counted, which is highly dependent on the experience of workers.

[0004] Although the above traditional control method can complete the bevel cutting operation, it still has the following shortcomings in actual application: 1. Since most cutting equipment adopts isolated single-machine equipment, when applying the existing control method, manual teaching of programs and setting of parameters are required, and only single-task production operations can be performed.

[0005] 2. The processes of transporting materials, loading, cutting, dust removal, and unloading are all highly dependent on manual labor, and manual labor is required to transfer materials between multiple processes.

[0006] 3. Production data needs to be collected, analyzed, and organized manually. It is difficult for production managers to fully understand the real-time status of the production line and they can only rely on reports and regular inspections from on-site operators. Summary of the invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art of low automation and high reliance on manual labor, and to provide a robot intelligent bevel cutting system with reasonable design, high automation, capable of multi-level collaborative operation, and equipped with multiple control modes, so as to meet different production conditions, effectively improve production efficiency, reduce labor costs, and be suitable for promotion.

[0008] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions: A robot intelligent groove cutting system includes a production management system, which is signal-connected to a main console, and the main console is equipped with an intelligent analysis module, a storage module, an intelligent scheduling module, a control module and a detection sensor; the intelligent analysis module is used to analyze production task orders, the storage module is used to store processing programs, the intelligent scheduling module is used to schedule production equipment, the control module is used to handle the interlocking, protection, parameter interaction and parameter collection of production equipment, and the detection sensor is used to detect the position of a workpiece; the intelligent analysis module, the storage module, the intelligent scheduling module and the control module are all control programs built into the main console, and the detection sensor is signal-connected to the main console, so that the main console can be intelligently controlled; the main console is signal-connected to material conveying equipment, plasma equipment, groove cutting equipment and intelligent gripping equipment, and the groove cutting equipment is signal-connected to the plasma equipment.

[0009] A further improvement of the present invention is that the main console is signal-connected to a dust removal device, and the dust removal device is signal-connected to the groove cutting device and the plasma device respectively.

[0010] A further improvement of the present invention is that the bevel cutting equipment has a partition structure around and on the bottom of the cutting table for placing the workpiece, and a partition damper is provided to form a closed form.

[0011] A further improvement of the present invention is that the main console signal is connected to a protective device, which includes a fence, an intelligent safety door and a beam-type grating protection system. The fence is arranged at the periphery of the robot intelligent bevel cutting system, the intelligent safety door is arranged at the entrance and exit of the robot intelligent bevel cutting system, and the beam-type grating protection system is arranged at the upper and lower material entrances of the material conveying equipment entering the bevel cutting production area.

[0012] A further improvement of the present invention is that the intelligent safety door is equipped with a control box, and the intelligent safety door includes an emergency control mode and a normal control mode.

[0013] A further improvement of the present invention is that the main console signal is connected to the human-machine interaction device.

[0014] An operating method of a robot intelligent bevel cutting system comprises the following steps: S1. The staff presses the production line start button on the human-machine interface of the human-machine interaction device, and the main console begins to detect that the bevel cutting equipment and the intelligent gripping equipment are in a safe position, the plasma equipment and the dust removal equipment are in a stopped state, and the protective equipment is in a protected state; after the above detection is completed, the main console notifies the production management system that the bevel cutting production area of ​​the above robot intelligent bevel cutting system is in a safe state, and then requests batch delivery of workpieces to the loading workpiece storage area in the bevel cutting production area, and issues a production task order.

[0015] S2. The main console shields the protective equipment's reflected grating protection system to prevent false alarms and interrupt the cutting process, and then controls the material conveying equipment to transport batches of workpieces to the designated loading workpiece storage area; when the main console receives the signal that the workpiece has arrived at the designated location, it notifies the production management system to transmit the production task order; after receiving the production task order information, the main console automatically parses the content of the production task order through the intelligent parsing module and identifies the workpiece parameters, which include workpiece size, workpiece current, workpiece quantity, processing program, processing program number, program type and other bevel cutting requirements; then the main console converts the above workpiece parameters into a format that the bevel cutting equipment can recognize and temporarily stores them in the storage module for subsequent cutting operations; at the same time, the order workpiece information and other requirements are processed by the control module to generate control signals and cutting parameters, and then generate a process parameter library to provide control and data for subsequent production operations.

[0016] S3. The main console sets up a process parameter library according to the cutting requirements of the plasma equipment, and calls the corresponding process parameters in the process parameter library based on the workpiece current analyzed and identified in step S2; the above-called process parameters are combined with the ID instruction, check code, start character and stop character specified by the plasma cutting equipment to form a transmission message of the plasma cutting equipment through the main console, and are automatically sent to the plasma cutting equipment remotely through the transmission program module and hardware transmission module of the main console; after receiving the instruction, the plasma cutting equipment automatically calls the corresponding process parameters, and waits for the start signal of the plasma cutting equipment to perform subsequent cutting operations.

[0017] S4. The main console detects that the workpiece parameters sent by the production management system are in place. After the workpiece parameters are transmitted in place, the groove cutting equipment selects the workpiece program parsed and identified in step S2 to wait for cutting; and after the workpiece parameters are transmitted in place, the main console sends the transmission message generated in step S3 to the plasma cutting equipment; then the main console diagnoses that the workpiece parameters and the transmission message are transmitted in place before performing subsequent operations.

[0018] S5. The main console detects the normal operation of the protective equipment and determines that the starting conditions of the intelligent gripping equipment, bevel cutting equipment, dust removal equipment and plasma cutting equipment are normal. After the detection is completed, the main console diagnoses the safety chains and interference areas of the intelligent gripping equipment and bevel cutting equipment to ensure that the above two devices are in a safe position and that the stop areas do not interfere with each other. After the diagnosis is completed, the main console controls the intelligent gripping equipment to automatically locate the workpiece, grab and load it, and accurately place it on the cutting platform of the bevel cutting equipment. At the same time, the intelligent scheduling module adjusts the loading speed of the intelligent gripping equipment and the order of loading and unloading of the bevel cutting equipment according to the actual production needs of the bevel cutting equipment.

[0019] S6. After the workpiece is placed on the diagnostic cutting platform, the console controls the bevel cutting equipment to execute the cutting task; after the bevel cutting equipment is started, the console automatically triggers the dust removal equipment to start, and the dust removal equipment, bevel cutting equipment and plasma equipment operate in conjunction; after the dust removal equipment is started, the console controls the plasma equipment to start according to the preset process parameters and paths, and the plasma equipment starts to execute the cutting task; at the same time, during the entire cutting operation, the console collects cutting data and status in real time.

[0020] S7. After the workpiece is cut, the main console controls the intelligent gripping equipment to automatically unload the material. After unloading, the main console repeats the steps of S4-6 through the preset cycle program, so that the intelligent gripping equipment, bevel cutting equipment, dust removal equipment, and plasma equipment automatically and continuously work until the batch of workpieces is cut. At the same time, the main console records and counts the number of cuts in real time.

[0021] S8. The main console controls the material conveying equipment to transport the cut batch of workpieces to the designated storage area, and then performs a cyclic reciprocating control of requesting transportation, loading, cutting, unloading, and feeding of the next batch of workpieces.

[0022] A further improvement of the present invention is that in step S6, the bevel cutting equipment can detect the deviation between the actual position of the workpiece and the simulation program through the detection sensor on its plasma cutting torch, and the bevel cutting equipment can adjust the arc voltage to correspond to the cutting height through its arc voltage regulating device, and the main console can control the plasma equipment to adapt to different materials and thicknesses, and automatically adjust and optimize cutting parameters.

[0023] A further improvement of the present invention is that in step S5, the safety chains of the intelligent grabbing device and the bevel cutting device include a hard-wired chain and a soft signal chain. When both devices are in a safe position, the hard wiring will be connected and input signals to the main console. At the same time, the soft signals of the safe positions of the two devices will also be transmitted to the main console. The main console can confirm that the two devices are in a safe position only after receiving both the hard wiring and soft signals.

[0024] A further improvement of the present invention is that in step S5, the airspace above the bevel cutting production area is an interference zone. When one of the intelligent grabbing device and the bevel cutting device enters the interference zone, the device will output a signal and lock the other device to prohibit it from entering the interference zone. If the two devices enter the interference zone at the same time, the two devices will trigger an alarm and suspend operation until one of the devices exits the interference zone, and then resume operation.

[0025] It can be seen from the above technical solutions that the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. This robot intelligent bevel cutting system realizes fully automated production, eliminating multiple manual processes in the middle, changing the traditional production organization method, reducing the number of operators, and greatly saving labor costs.

[0026] 2. This robot intelligent bevel cutting system adopts batch production, order-based distribution of processing tasks, automatic material transportation, automatic handling system loading and unloading, and cutting, which greatly improves production efficiency.

[0027] 3. This robot intelligent bevel cutting system can collect exhaust gas through the dust removal system, effectively improving the environmental protection performance.

[0028] 4. This robot intelligent bevel cutting system has a protection system that can be shielded during material transportation and can cut off operation when an unexpected intrusion occurs. It is flexible to operate, safe and reliable. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, the accompanying drawings required for use in the description will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the accompanying drawings in the following description are only some embodiments of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, other accompanying drawings can be obtained based on these accompanying drawings without paying creative work.

[0030] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of a specific embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] In order to make the purpose, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in this specific embodiment. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this patent, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this patent.

[0032] Now refer to Figure 1, combined with a specific embodiment, it is described as follows: a robot intelligent groove cutting system includes a production management system, the production management system signal is connected to the main console, and the main console is equipped with an intelligent analysis module, a storage module, an intelligent scheduling module, a control module and a detection sensor. Combined with the existing groove cutting ecological production line, the main console is mainly composed of an intelligent analysis module, a storage module, an intelligent scheduling module, a control module, a detection sensor, a real-time monitoring module and a fault warning module; wherein, the intelligent analysis module is used to analyze production task orders, the storage module is used to store processing programs, the intelligent scheduling module is used to schedule production equipment, the control module is used to handle the interlocking, protection, parameter interaction and parameter collection of production equipment, and the detection sensor is used to detect the position of the workpiece; the intelligent analysis module, the storage module, the intelligent scheduling module and the control module are all control programs built into the main console, and the detection sensor is connected to the main console signal, so that the main console can be intelligently controlled.

[0033] The main console is respectively connected to the material conveying equipment, plasma equipment, bevel cutting equipment and intelligent gripping equipment, and the bevel cutting equipment is signal-connected to the plasma equipment; among them, the specific structures of the material conveying equipment, plasma equipment, bevel cutting equipment, intelligent gripping equipment, dust removal equipment, protective equipment and human-computer interaction equipment can refer to the existing bevel cutting ecological production line, and the intelligent control used in the robot intelligent bevel cutting system can refer to the existing intelligent control technology of mechanical engineering.

[0034] Specifically, the main console signal is connected to the dust removal equipment, and the dust removal equipment is respectively connected to the bevel cutting equipment and the plasma equipment signal. Through the design of the dust removal system, the dust removal system can collect exhaust gas during the operation of the robot intelligent bevel cutting system, thereby greatly improving the environmental protection performance.

[0035] Specifically, the bevel cutting equipment uses a partition structure around the cutting table and the bottom surface for placing the workpiece, and forms a closed form by setting partition dampers. During the operation of this robot intelligent bevel cutting system, the main console controls the automatic opening of the partition damper that is cutting the workpiece, thereby ensuring that the utilization rate of the dust removal equipment is maximized and the smoke collection rate is high. The smoke sucked into the dust removal equipment can be directly discharged into the production workshop after treatment, that is, the purified gas meets the standards and will not harm health. At the same time, during the operation of the dust removal equipment, the main console can accurately control the start and stop of the dust removal equipment by calculating the cutting time, thereby achieving energy saving.

[0036] Specifically, the main console signal is connected to the protective equipment, which includes a fence, an intelligent safety door and a beam-type grating protection system. The fence is set at the periphery of the robot intelligent bevel cutting system, the intelligent safety door is set at the entrance and exit of the robot intelligent bevel cutting system, and the beam-type grating protection system is set at the loading and unloading entrances of the material conveying equipment into the bevel cutting production area. When loading and unloading materials, the grating protection system is shielded and no alarm occurs. At any other time, as long as the grating protection system is touched, the main console will issue an alarm message, and the plasma equipment, bevel cutting equipment and intelligent gripping equipment will stop running, thereby preventing harm to personnel and equipment that break into the bevel cutting production area.

[0037] Specifically, the intelligent safety door is equipped with a control box, and the intelligent safety door includes an emergency control mode and a conventional control mode. Emergency control mode: In case of an emergency, the staff can manually suspend the plasma equipment, bevel cutting equipment and intelligent grabbing equipment through the emergency control mode, and then use the key to open the intelligent safety door. After entering, they can deal with the emergency of the equipment. Conventional control mode: The staff presses the operation button on the control box, and the request information is transmitted to the main console. The main console determines the actual operating status of the plasma equipment, bevel cutting equipment and intelligent grabbing equipment through the received request information. If it is in the working state, the green light on the control box flashes to remind the entrants to wait; if it is in the stopped state, the green light on the control box is always on, and the intelligent safety door is opened to allow the personnel to enter. In the emergency control mode or the conventional control mode, when the entrants have dealt with the equipment problem, they close the intelligent safety door and press the restart button. The equipment in the bevel cutting production area continues to work and produce according to the process before the personnel enter.

[0038] Specifically, the main console signal is connected to the human-machine interaction device. Through the design of the human-machine interaction system, it is convenient for the staff to monitor the cutting status of the robot intelligent bevel cutting system in real time, thereby improving the convenience of operation.

[0039] An operating method of a robot intelligent bevel cutting system comprises the following steps: S1. The staff presses the production line start button on the human-machine interface of the human-machine interaction device, and the main console begins to detect that the bevel cutting equipment and the intelligent gripping equipment are in a safe position, the plasma equipment and the dust removal equipment are in a stopped state, and the protective equipment is in a protected state; after the above detection is completed, the main console notifies the production management system that the bevel cutting production area of ​​the above robot intelligent bevel cutting system is in a safe state, and then requests batch delivery of workpieces to the loading workpiece storage area in the bevel cutting production area, and issues a production task order.

[0040] S2. The main console shields the protective equipment's reflected grating protection system to prevent false alarms and interrupt the cutting process, and then controls the material conveying equipment to transport batches of workpieces to the designated loading workpiece storage area; when the main console receives the signal that the workpiece has arrived at the designated location, it notifies the production management system to transmit the production task order; after receiving the production task order information, the main console automatically parses the content of the production task order through the intelligent parsing module and identifies the workpiece parameters, which include workpiece size, workpiece current, workpiece quantity, processing program, processing program number, program type and other bevel cutting requirements; then the main console converts the above workpiece parameters into a format that the bevel cutting equipment can recognize and temporarily stores them in the storage module for subsequent cutting operations; at the same time, the order workpiece information and other requirements are processed by the control module to generate control signals and cutting parameters, and then generate a process parameter library to provide control and data for subsequent production operations.

[0041] S3. The main console sets up a process parameter library according to the cutting requirements of the plasma equipment, and calls the corresponding process parameters in the process parameter library based on the workpiece current analyzed and identified in step S2; the above-called process parameters are combined with the ID instruction, check code, start character and stop character specified by the plasma cutting equipment to form a transmission message of the plasma cutting equipment through the main console, and are automatically sent to the plasma cutting equipment remotely through the transmission program module and hardware transmission module of the main console; after receiving the instruction, the plasma cutting equipment automatically calls the corresponding process parameters, and waits for the start signal of the plasma cutting equipment to perform subsequent cutting operations.

[0042] S4. The main console detects that the workpiece parameters sent by the production management system are in place. After the workpiece parameters are transmitted in place, the groove cutting equipment selects the workpiece program parsed and identified in step S2 to wait for cutting; and after the workpiece parameters are transmitted in place, the main console sends the transmission message generated in step S3 to the plasma cutting equipment; then the main console diagnoses that the workpiece parameters and the transmission message are transmitted in place before performing subsequent operations.

[0043] It should be noted that in step S4, the bevel cutting device can select one of the workpiece program parsed and identified in step S2 or the locally edited processing program for cutting. That is, when the processing program type is 1, the workpiece program parsed and identified in step S2 is transmitted to the bevel cutting device; when the processing program type is 0, the processing program locally edited by the bevel cutting device is called.

[0044] S5. The main console detects the normal operation of the protective equipment and determines that the starting conditions of the intelligent gripping equipment, bevel cutting equipment, dust removal equipment and plasma cutting equipment are normal. After the detection is completed, the main console diagnoses the safety chains and interference areas of the intelligent gripping equipment and bevel cutting equipment to ensure that the above two devices are in a safe position and that the stop areas do not interfere with each other. After the diagnosis is completed, the main console controls the intelligent gripping equipment to automatically locate the workpiece, grab and load it, and accurately place it on the cutting platform of the bevel cutting equipment. At the same time, the intelligent scheduling module adjusts the loading speed of the intelligent gripping equipment and the order of loading and unloading of the bevel cutting equipment according to the actual production needs of the bevel cutting equipment, so as to ensure the continuity of the production process.

[0045] Specifically, in step S5, the safety chains of the intelligent grabbing device and the bevel cutting device include a hard-wired chain and a soft signal chain. When both devices are in a safe position, the hard wiring will be connected and input signals to the main console. At the same time, the soft signals of the safe positions of the two devices will also be transmitted to the main console. The main console can confirm that the two devices are in a safe position only after receiving both the hard wiring and soft signals.

[0046] Specifically, in step S5, the airspace above the bevel cutting production area is an interference zone. When one of the intelligent gripping device and the bevel cutting device enters the interference zone, the device will output a signal and lock the other device to prohibit it from entering the interference zone. If the two devices enter the interference zone at the same time, the two devices will trigger an alarm and suspend operation until one of the devices exits the interference zone, and then resume operation.

[0047] S6. After the workpiece is placed on the diagnostic cutting platform, the console controls the bevel cutting equipment to execute the cutting task; after the bevel cutting equipment is started, the console automatically triggers the dust removal equipment to start, and the dust removal equipment, bevel cutting equipment and plasma equipment operate in conjunction; it should be noted that the plasma equipment can only be started after the dust removal equipment is started; after the dust removal equipment is started, the console controls the plasma equipment to start according to the preset process parameters and paths, and the plasma equipment starts to execute the cutting task; at the same time, during the entire cutting operation, the console collects cutting data and status in real time to facilitate operation and maintenance by the staff.

[0048] Specifically, in step S6, the bevel cutting device can detect the deviation between the actual position of the workpiece and the simulation program through the detection sensor on its plasma cutting torch, so that the bevel cutting device can compensate during the operation, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the workpiece.

[0049] Specifically, in step S6, the bevel cutting equipment can adjust the arc pressure to correspond to the cutting height through its arc pressure regulating device. Since the deformation of the plate will cause the cutting height to change, thereby causing the arc pressure to change, the main console compares the initial arc pressure with the real-time arc pressure, and adjusts the cutting height in time through the arc pressure regulating device, thereby ensuring that the cutting height remains unchanged, thereby ensuring the stability of the cutting quality; Specifically, in step S6, the main console can control the plasma equipment to adapt to different materials and thicknesses, and automatically adjust and optimize cutting parameters.

[0050] S7. After the workpiece is cut, the main console controls the intelligent gripping equipment to automatically unload the material. After unloading, the main console repeats the steps of S4-6 through the preset cycle program, so that the intelligent gripping equipment, bevel cutting equipment, dust removal equipment, and plasma equipment automatically and continuously work until the batch of workpieces is cut. At the same time, the main console records and counts the number of cuts in real time.

[0051] S8. The main console controls the material conveying equipment to transport the cut batch of workpieces to the designated storage area, and then performs a cyclic reciprocating control of requesting transportation, loading, cutting, unloading, and feeding of the next batch of workpieces.

[0052] Specifically, this robot intelligent bevel cutting system is equipped with human-machine interaction equipment, which can monitor the production data and status and alarm status collected in real time by the main console. Workers and maintenance personnel can observe the operation of the equipment in real time, which is convenient for operation and fault maintenance. This robot intelligent bevel cutting system can control the operation of on-site equipment, as well as the independent operation of plasma equipment, bevel cutting equipment, intelligent gripping equipment, dust removal equipment, and protective equipment, and plays an important role in the installation, commissioning and maintenance process. This robot intelligent bevel cutting system can also reset process flows such as workpiece transportation, loading, cutting, unloading and transporting workpieces. When one of the processes fails and cannot be continued, the staff resets all parameters in this process to the initial position on the human-machine interface, and then restarts the bevel cutting equipment to start from this process and continue to perform the following work.

[0053] Specifically, the water, electricity, gas, hydraulic and other data of the bevel cutting production area of ​​the robot intelligent bevel cutting system, the number of workpiece cuts, the speed, distance, arc voltage, cutting time, cutting length of the bevel cutting equipment, program running time, equipment running status, staff working hours, alarm parameter information, dust removal equipment running data and status, protective equipment status and other production data and status can be transmitted to the user's production management system in real time. Users can display and analyze energy management and production efficiency, as well as employee management and remote maintenance after receiving this information.

[0054] It should be noted that this robot intelligent bevel cutting system includes two modes: automatic and manual.

[0055] Automatic mode: This robot intelligent groove cutting system is interconnected with the user's production management system and can exchange information. After one-click startup on the human-machine interaction device, it can perform uninterrupted intelligent automatic cutting all day long without human intervention. The main console requests the material conveying equipment to transport batches of workpieces to the loading and storage area, automatically issues production order tasks, automatically parses production order tasks, automatically sends offline workpiece programs to the groove cutting equipment, automatically sends the cutting parameters of the plasma equipment, and the intelligent gripping equipment loads the workbench, automatically starts the dust removal equipment, and the groove cutting equipment automatically retrieves the workpiece program for trajectory cutting. The intelligent gripping equipment unloads the material to the unloading storage area, and requests the material conveying equipment to transport batches of workpieces to the storage workshop. The production area is fully protected, and the production data and status are transmitted to the user's production management system in real time, so as to achieve highly digital information interconnection with the storage workshop, scheduling department, management department, and technical department, and realize fully automated production connected with the Internet of Things.

[0056] Manual mode: When the robot intelligent beveling cutting system is not connected to the user's production management system, the material conveying equipment is manually called to transport batches of workpieces to the loading storage area and to transport the cut workpieces to the storage workshop. Other processes are the same as the automatic mode, which can realize automatic cycle cutting of the equipment in the workshop production area. In manual mode, the equipment can also be run in single step for debugging and maintenance.

[0057] Working principle of the present invention: Combined with step S1, the production management system of this robot intelligent bevel cutting system is connected to the main console to issue production tasks remotely. After analysis, the production program and production data are transmitted to each process system to realize order-based and automated production, solving problems such as low digital program, low production efficiency, and the inability of production plan to automatically connect with production equipment.

[0058] Combined with steps S2-S8, this robot intelligent bevel cutting system integrates all process systems and has powerful data processing and decision-making capabilities. According to preset programs and algorithms, it is responsible for overall coordination, movement and calculation, and controls multiple machines to perform continuous, unmanned assembly line operations, reducing human intervention and realizing intelligent automated production. It solves the problem in the existing technology that each production process requires separate manual operation and cannot be coordinated and continuously operated. At the same time, the dust removal system solves the problem of serious pollution.

[0059] It can be seen that the robot intelligent beveling cutting system can receive and analyze the operating status and data from various devices in real time, interlock various devices to operate collaboratively, and monitor and control through the human-computer interaction system. At the same time, it can also transmit equipment status and production data to the production management system in real time, so that managers can monitor the operation of the production line in real time, track production progress, and manage the production process in a refined manner, thereby improving the transparency and controllability of the production process and solving the problems of on-site staff being unable to monitor production status and progress in real time and having difficulty in obtaining production data, which increases management difficulty and reduces production efficiency.

[0060] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables one skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but rather to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
