DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0069] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions of the present application will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings, obviously, the described embodiments are some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0070] The present application provides a laser cutting device, a cutting method and a cutting system, which are described below in detail. It should be noted that the description order of the following embodiments is not limited as the preferred order of the embodiments of the present application. Moreover, in the following embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own emphasis, and the parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment can be referred to the related description of other embodiments.
[0071] Currently, some laser cutting processes of planar products, such as PCB, mainly adopt single-sided cutting mode, generally use ultraviolet nanosecond laser, and have the following problems:
[0072] 1. The single-sided cutting mode will generate a large product taper (related to the edge angle designed by the field lens), which is easy to exceed the tolerance and affect the subsequent assembly of SMT process;
[0073] 2. The single-sided cutting mode is low in efficiency. According to the principle of laser processing, the thicker the thickness, the longer the cutting time will be proportional to the square of the thickness; it cannot meet the unit hour production of the commonly used standard chip mounter on the market;
[0074] 3. The ultraviolet nanosecond laser has low processing efficiency, and in the case of processing the same number, more time is often needed, which has the advantage of good quality but the disadvantage of low efficiency;
[0075] 4. When cutting one side, there is no cover plate to press the product in the carrier, and at the end of cutting, the product will move, resulting in misalignment (the most obvious manifestation is that the cutting line or cleaning line cuts the product).
[0076] By carrying the product on the bottom surface of the carrier, covering the upper surface of the product with the cover plate, and using double-sided cutting, i.e., cutting one side of the product to complete half-depth cutting, and then turning over the product to cut the other half-depth, the above problems can be overcome.
[0077] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 In some scenarios, the product 100 is transported in the x direction, and the width of the cover plate 102 and the carrier 101 in the y direction is the same, so that in the turning process, the upper and lower belts of the turning belt line clamp the carrier and the cover plate respectively. In this scenario, the cover plate 102 and the carrier 101 can be matched by a pin and a pin hole, or can be matched by magnetic attraction.
[0078] Referring to Figures 4 to 6 In some scenarios, the product 100 is transported in the x direction, and the width of the cover plate 102 and the carrier 101 in the y direction is not the same, and the width of the cover plate 102 is smaller than that of the carrier 101. Then in the turning process, the upper and lower belts of the turning belt line clamp the upper and lower surfaces of the carrier respectively. In this scenario, the cover plate 102 and the carrier 101 can be matched by magnetic attraction.

[0084] Optionally, the first y-direction moving device 2 and the second y-direction moving device 4 can be a linear motor with double movers.
[0085] In some embodiments, the feeding device 1 and the discharging device 5 are conveying belt lines 8. The conveying belt lines 8 only have horizontal conveying function, and do not have turnover function.
[0086] Optionally, referring to Figure 10 , the conveying belt line 8 comprises a first side plate 81 and a second side plate 82; the first side plate 81 and the second side plate 82 are both provided with a conveying belt 83; a belt driving mechanism 84 is used for driving the conveying belt 83 to move; a position blocking assembly 85 is arranged on the front side and / or the rear side of each conveying belt 83, and is used for stopping the product when the product is conveyed to the position; and a jacking positioning assembly 86 is used for positioning the carrier.
[0087] Optionally, one of the first side plate 81 and the second side plate 82 can be mounted on a sliding rail and driven by a screw rod driving mechanism to adjust the distance between the first side plate 81 and the second side plate 82; the position blocking assembly 85 can be a pneumatic cylinder controlled by a control module, and a position sensor can be arranged on the first side plate 81 and the second side plate 82, so that when the product is detected to be conveyed to the position, the control module controls the blocking assembly 85 to act to stop the product; the jacking positioning assembly 86 can be a top plate driven by a pneumatic cylinder, and the upper surface of the top plate can be provided with a positioning pin inserted into a positioning hole on the carrier 101, so as to position the product to the position to cooperate with the cover plate 102.
[0088] In some embodiments, the feeding device 1 and the discharging device 5 are turnover belt lines. The turnover belt line has the functions of horizontal conveying and product surface turning.
[0089] Specifically, referring to Figure 11 , the turnover belt line 3 comprises a bottom plate 31, a first mounting base 32 and a second mounting base 33, a turnover plate 34 arranged on each of the first mounting base 32 and the second mounting base 33, a belt clamping conveying assembly 35 arranged on the inner side of the turnover plate 34 for clamping and conveying a carrier, and a turnover plate driver 36 for driving the turnover plate 34 to turn.
[0090] In this embodiment, after the product is clamped by the belt clamping conveying assembly 35, the turnover plate driver 36 drives the corresponding turnover plate 34 to turn, so as to turn the product.
[0091] Further, the turnover belt line 3 further comprises a distance adjusting mechanism 37; the first mounting base 32 is mounted on a guide rail 38 of the bottom plate 31; the distance adjusting mechanism 37 comprises a distance adjusting screw rod 371, one end of which is rotationally connected with the bottom plate 31, the other end of which is matched with the first mounting base 32 through a screw rod nut, and a screw rod driver 372 for driving the distance adjusting screw rod 371 to rotate.
[0092] Referring to Figure 12 , the cutting platform comprises a box body 221 with an open upper end, two movable belts 222 arranged on the opposite side walls of the box body 221 respectively, a fixed plate 223 arranged above the movable belts 222 on the box body 221, and a jacking assembly 224 for jacking the product tightly against the lower surface of the fixed plate 223 after the product is in place.
[0093] In this embodiment, the movable belts 222 can input or output the product 100 into or out of the box body 221; and the jacking assembly 224 can fix the product during laser processing.
[0094] Referring to Figure 13 , the cover plate folding and unfolding device 6 comprises two vertical columns 61, a linear motion mechanism 62 arranged along the x direction, the two ends of which are respectively mounted on the vertical columns 61, a cover plate grabbing mechanism 63 mounted on the moving plate of the linear motion mechanism 62 through a lifting device 64, and a cover plate storage site 65 fixed on the linear motion mechanism 62.
[0095] Optionally, the cover plate grabbing mechanism 63 can include multiple negative pressure suction heads, or can be pressed tightly by a spring mechanism and then clamped by a cylinder on both sides of the cover plate. At the same time, in order to facilitate the disassembly of the cover plate, a spring pressing structure can also be provided to press against the carrier, and the grabbing structure can be moved up to disassemble the cover plate (overcome the magnetic attraction). The lifting device 64 can be a lifting motor; the cover plate storage and retrieval device 6 can suck the cover plate 102 at the cover plate storage position 65 and place it on the product of the feeding device 1, and can suck the cover plate on the product of the discharging device 5 to the cover plate storage position 65.
[0096] In some embodiments, the two laser processing devices 7 have the same structure and can include a Z-axis, a galvanometer, a field lens, a Z-axis optical path, a camera, a lens, a light source, an upper dust cover, etc. The two laser processing devices 7 can be respectively mounted on the two movers of the double-mover linear motor. The CCD of the laser processing device 7 is responsible for capturing the Mark point of the product, and cooperates with the XZ-axis and the Y-axis of the cutting platform to realize processing according to the dxf or gerber drawing position.
[0097] In some embodiments, during laser cutting, the position scanning of the product (CCD positioning) can be completed through the internal structure of the equipment before processing, thereby saving the photographing and positioning time of the laser head (i.e., the CCD completes the product positioning function in advance and the function of capturing four targets of the product at one time); the large-format field lens processing range (110x110 or more), or the double-galvanometer splicing (MxN way), can realize cutting of a 110*M x 110*N format at one time, reduce the axis movement time, and complete the reduction of CT through the high-speed jumping of the galvanometer.
[0098] In one application scenario, one of the above laser cutting devices can be used to cut the front and back surfaces of the product. Specifically, a laser cutting method includes:
[0099] The laser processing device 7 performs back surface cutting on the nth product located on the first cutting platform 22 at the laser processing position, and performs front surface cutting on the n-1th product located on the second cutting platform 42 at the laser processing position;
[0100] At the same time, the feeding device 1 receives the n+1th product with the front surface upward and carried by the carrier, the cover plate storage and retrieval device 6 places a cover plate on the product to be cut on the feeding device 1, the first transfer belt line 21 moves to the transfer position, and the n+1th product with the cover plate is transported to the turnover belt line 3 and turned over to the back surface upward, and then transported back to the feeding device 1 for waiting;
[0101] After the n-th and the n+1-th product are cut, the first and second transfer belt lines 41 move to the avoiding position and the first and second cutting platforms 42 move to the transferring position; the first cutting platform 22 delivers the n-th product cut on the reverse side to the turnover belt line 3 to be turned over to the front side up, and the second cutting platform 42 delivers the n-1-th product cut on the front side to the discharging device 5, and the cover plate folding and unfolding device 6 recovers the cover plate on the discharging device 5;
[0102] The turnover belt line 3 delivers the n-th product to the second cutting platform 42, and the feeding device 1 delivers the n+1-th product to the first cutting platform 22; the first and second cutting platforms 42 move to the laser processing position to be cut. The above process is repeated.
[0103] In the embodiment, the cover plate 102 can be recovered at the discharging device 5 by cutting on the reverse side first. See Figure 2 When the production direction is from left to right, the second transfer belt line 41 is in idle state; when the production direction is from right to left, the second transfer belt line 41 replaces the first transfer belt line 21, which shows that the laser cutting equipment has strong versatility. The feeding device 1 and the discharging device 5 only need to play the role of horizontal conveying, so they can be conveying belt lines 8 or turnover belt lines.
[0104] Preferably, in the embodiment, the feeding device 1 and the discharging device 5 are both conveying belt lines 8, and the width of the cover plate 102 and the carrier 101 in the y direction is the same. On the one hand, it is convenient to take and place the cover plate; on the other hand, in the circulation process, the carrier is dragged by the belt when the product is front side up, and the cover plate can be dragged by the belt when the product is reverse side up, so the conveying is stable and the cover plate will not fall off due to turning over.
[0105] In another application scenario, two laser cutting equipment described above can be connected in series to form a laser cutting system. In an embodiment, the laser cutting system includes two laser cutting equipment connected in series as described above; the laser cutting equipment located upstream cuts one side of the product, and the laser cutting equipment located downstream cuts the other side of the product.
[0106] For example, the two laser processing positions of the first laser cutting equipment can be used to cut the front side of the product, and the feeding device 1 and the discharging device 5 only need to play the role of horizontal conveying, so they can be conveying belt lines 8 or turnover belt lines. The turnover belt line 3 in the first y-direction moving device 2 and the second y-direction moving device 4 also only needs to play the role of horizontal conveying. The first transfer belt line 21 and the second transfer belt line 41 can be idle.
[0107] The two laser processing positions of the second laser cutting device can be used to cut the back of the product. The feeding device 1 and the discharging device 5 are both turnover belt lines 3, which need to play a turnover function, and the turnover belt lines 3 in the first y-direction moving device 2 and the second y-direction moving device 4 only play a horizontal conveying function. Specifically, the product conveyed in the front is conveyed to the feeding device 1, which turns over the product to have the back upward; the cover plate folding device 6 places the cover plate 102 on the product, and then the product is conveyed to the first cutting platform 22 or the second cutting platform 42 for cutting; after the cutting of the product is completed, the cover plate 102 is recovered on the discharging device 5, and then the discharging device 5 turns over the product 100 to have the front upward.
[0108] Optionally, the laser cutting system of the embodiment can be applied to the scenario where the cover plate 102 is smaller than the width of the carrier 101 in the y direction. For example, the feeding device 1 and the discharging device 5 of the second laser cutting device are both turnover belt lines 3, the cover plate 102 is smaller than the width of the carrier 101 in the y direction, and the turnover belt lines 3 only clamp the two sides of the carrier 101, without affecting the taking and placing of the cover plate 102.
[0109] In summary, by cutting the product on both sides, the problem of cutting a large taper of the product can be solved (under the same galvanometer field mirror configuration, the taper of the double-sided cutting is only half of the original single-sided cutting taper); according to the thickness effect of laser processing (time is proportional to the square of thickness), the double-sided cutting can at least be 2 times more efficient; the double-sided cutting needs to be turned over on both sides, after the product flows into the machine with the carrier, the machine first installs the cover plate, and then turns over to have the back upward, the equipment first cuts the back, and then turns over to have the front upward, and completes the front cutting. Since there is a carrier and a cover plate, the product is in the middle layer (sandwich), which can be well compressed for cutting, and there is no movement of the product as in single-sided cutting; the double-platform front and back cutting can fully utilize the time proportion of the laser head, and can almost keep it in the processing state without waiting time, which can achieve the highest machine efficiency.
