Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of single crystal silicon material processing equipment, and in particular to an automatic wire cutting system and a cutting method for silicon material with adhesive. Background Art

[0002] Edge material is the edge waste cut from the edge of a single crystal silicon rod. These materials are good materials in photovoltaic single crystal production, with high silicon purity, suitable for use with crystal pulling. Large wafers need to be ground to remove the surface coating before the subsequent raw material processing process. Before processing the edge material, it is necessary to pickle and clean the edge material to remove impurities on the surface of the edge material, and then bond it with a specific glue to form a continuous whole section of edge material, and then use existing cutting equipment to cut it with diamond wire. The edge material obtained by cutting needs to be debonded.

[0003] During the process of cutting the edge material, the operator needs to put the edge material into the processing position of the cutting machine. The cutting machine moves the diamond wire down through the internal lifting mechanism. The cutting operation is completed during the downward movement. After cutting, the operator takes out the edge material.

[0004] Since the operators need to operate inside the cutting machine, there are not only safety hazards, but also the operators have to perform many operation steps after the edge materials are cut. They need to pick up and put the edge materials back and forth. During the cutting process, in order to place the edge materials offset, the operators are also required to observe the cutting status of the edge materials at all times. During the cutting process, they cannot pick up and put other edge materials to be cut or completed. The overall operation speed is slow, which can only be solved by increasing the number of operators, increasing production costs. Summary of the invention

[0045] A cutting method based on an automatic wire cutting system for silicone material with adhesive;

[0046] Step 1, push the material box 6 filled with edge materials into the position of the enclosure 14 to position the material box 6; in order to facilitate movement, the material box 6 is provided with walking wheels at the bottom of the material box 6; but at the same time, the material box 6 needs to be stable and motionless when loading materials to avoid large deviations in the point position, which will affect the six-axis industrial robot 2 in clamping the edge materials. Therefore, after moving to the designated workstation, the range of movement of the material box 6 needs to be limited by the enclosure 14.

[0047] The six-axis industrial robot 2 transfers the uppermost edge material in the material box 6 to the support block 7.3 of the positioning mechanism 7 through the suction cup gripper 3, and the edge material is placed horizontally with the plane facing upwards;

[0048] Step 2, start the infrared laser 7.1, the infrared laser 7.1 is tilted in the range of 30-45 degrees, and the ray length of the infrared laser 7.1 is in the range of 0.5m-2m; the laser point is irradiated onto the plane of the edge leather;

[0049] Step 3, controlling the second drive motor 7.6 to rotate forward and reversely to adjust the position of the edge leather material so that the bonding seam of the edge leather material coincides with the laser point;

[0050] Step 4, the six-axis industrial robot 2 clamps the edge leather material according to the position of the edge leather material after being adjusted by the positioning mechanism 7 and transfers it to the top of the loading platform 5, and the plane of the edge leather material is placed downward; the suction force on the discharge plate 5.3 fixes the edge leather material on the discharge plate 5.3; the bonding seam of the edge leather material and the gap between the discharge plate 5.3 are in the same vertical plane;

[0051] Step 4, control the first drive motor 4.7 to feed the discharge plate 5.3 on the discharge mechanism into the wire cutting machine 1, and the diamond wire 1.1 of the wire cutting machine 1 moves down along the bonding seam of the edge leather material for cutting; the cut diamond wire 1.1 enters the gap between the discharge plates 5.3,

[0052] Step 5, after the cutting is completed, the diamond wire 1.1 is reset first, and then the feeding mechanism is reset;

[0053] Step 6, the six-axis industrial robot 2 takes the edge leather on the loading platform 5 through the suction cup gripper 3 and transfers it to the buffer mechanism 8, and places the edge leather on the surface of the positioning frame 8.1 with the plane of the edge leather facing downward; the six-axis industrial robot 2 uses the time interval when the edge leather is being cut by the wire cutting machine 1 to put the edge leather on the buffer mechanism 8 that has been cut into the feed port of the cleaning machine. The cutting operation of the glue seam of the edge leather can be realized based on the automatic wire cutting system and using the cutting method for the system. The operating steps of the operator are reduced. If the fixing method is not separately introduced above, it is welded or threaded fastened using the common technical means of technical personnel in the industry.

[0054] Here’s how it works:

[0055] The irradiation point of the infrared laser 7.1 corresponds to the gap between the discharge plates 5.3 on the feeding mechanism. When the feeding mechanism enters the wire cutting machine 1, the gap between the discharge plates 5.3 is exactly at the cutting position of the diamond wire 1.1. The six-axis industrial robot 2 only needs to transfer according to the preset point position; then, by adjusting the position of the edge leather material in the positioning mechanism 7, the position relationship of the wire cutting can be met, so that the equipment can complete automatic wire cutting and transfer the edge leather material at the same time.

[0056] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
