[0025] The embodiments of the present application are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0026] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiment of the present application provides a processing and testing device 100 for processing and automatically testing a workpiece 200, the workpiece 200 may be a shell, a middle frame, etc. of an electronic product, and the electronic product may be a mobile phone, a tablet, a keyboard, etc. The processing and testing device 100 includes an assembly line device 10, a processing device 20, a cleaning device 30, a code scanning device 40, a testing device 50, a plurality of material moving devices 60, an information collection device 70 and a processing center 80.

[0027] Specifically, the assembly line device 10 is used to transport the workpiece 200 along a preset direction. It can be understood that the preset direction is the transport direction of the assembly line device 10. In this embodiment, the length of the assembly line device 10 can be set according to actual production requirements.

[0028] The processing device 20 is arranged adjacent to the assembly line device 10. The processing device 20 has multiple tools 21. The processing device 20 is provided with a first identification code (not shown) for storing information of the processing device 20. Each tool 21 is provided with a second identification code (not shown) for storing information of the tool 21. The processing device 20 is used to process a workpiece 200 and to process a third identification code (not shown) on the workpiece 200. The third identification code stores information of the processing device 20 and the tool 21 for processing the workpiece 200.

[0029] The processing device 20 may be a CNC processing machine. In the present embodiment, in order to further improve the degree of automation, an automatic door may be provided on the processing device 20 so as to automatically open during loading and unloading and automatically close during processing.

[0030] The first identification code on the processing device 20 may be a two-dimensional code, a dot matrix code, a bar code, etc. The first identification code is used to store information of the processing device 20, such as a machine number, a machine type, and other information.

[0031] The number of the tool 21 in the processing device 20 can be two, three, four, etc. The specific number can be set according to the actual processing requirements and is not limited here. The second identification code on the tool 21 can be a two-dimensional code, a dot matrix code, a bar code, etc. The second identification code is used to store the corresponding information of the tool 21, such as the model and position of the tool 21. It can be understood that the tool 21 includes a handle and a cutter head. In the actual production process, the cutter head needs to be installed on the handle and connected to the processing device 20 through the handle. Therefore, the second identification code on the tool 21 can be set on the handle. The third identification code on the workpiece 200 can be a two-dimensional code, a dot matrix code, a bar code, etc. The third identification code can store the information of the processing device 20 and the tool 21, such as the machine number of the processing device 20, the position of the tool 21, etc. In this embodiment, the third identification code can also store information such as the clamping position number, the processing code number, and the machine model number. It can be understood that in order not to affect subsequent processing, the third identification code can be processed in the waste area of ​​the workpiece 200. The size of the waste area is limited. In order to facilitate scanning of the third identification code, in this embodiment, the third identification code is preferably a dot matrix code.

[0032] In this embodiment, there can be multiple processing devices 20, such as two, ten, fifty, etc. The specific number can be set according to actual needs, and they can be set corresponding to the assembly line device 10, which is not limited here. Multiple processing devices 20 can perform the same processing steps or different processing steps, which is based on actual needs and is not limited here.

[0033] The cleaning device 30 is provided on the assembly line device 10 and is spaced apart from the processing device 20 along a preset direction. The cleaning device 30 is used to clean the workpiece 200. It is understood that during the processing, cutting oil, coolant, etc. are usually used to cool the workpiece 200 and the tool 21. Therefore, after the processing is completed, liquid or processing debris may remain on the surface of the workpiece 200, which may affect the scanning of the third identification code. By providing the cleaning device 30, the workpiece 200 can be cleaned after the processing device 20 completes the processing, which is convenient for subsequent code scanning.

[0034] The code scanning device 40 is mounted on the assembly line device 10 and is spaced apart from the cleaning device 30 along a preset direction. The code scanning device 40 is used to scan the third identification code. The information contained in the third identification code can be obtained through the code scanning device 40.

[0035] The detection device 50 is arranged adjacent to the assembly line device 10 and is arranged at intervals from the code scanning device 40 along a preset direction. The detection device 50 is used to detect the workpiece 200. The detection device 50 can be a detection device such as a CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine), an OMM (Optical Measuring Microscope), an Equator comparator, etc. Of course, the detection device 50 can also be other detection devices, which are not limited here. In this embodiment, a plurality of detection devices 50 can be provided, and the workpiece 200 can be detected separately to further improve the detection efficiency, reduce the standby time of the processing device 20, and improve production efficiency.

[0036] It can be understood that different detection devices 50 can be used to detect different workpieces 200 or to detect different parameters of the workpiece 200. In the present embodiment, each detection device 50 is provided with a corresponding detection scanner 51. The detection scanner 51 is mounted above the assembly line device 10. When the workpiece 200 to be detected moves to the bottom of the detection scanner 51, the detection scanner 51 scans the third identification code on the workpiece 200 to obtain the information of the workpiece 200, and then confirms whether the workpiece 200 is the workpiece 200 to be detected by the detection device 50 corresponding to the detection scanner 51. If the workpiece 200 is the workpiece 200 to be detected, the detection device 50 detects the workpiece 200. Otherwise, the assembly line device 10 continues to convey the workpiece 200 until the workpiece 200 moves to the corresponding detection device 50.

[0037] Multiple material transfer devices 60 are arranged adjacent to the assembly line device 10, and are respectively arranged corresponding to the processing device 20 and the detection device 50. The material transfer devices 60 are used to load and unload the processing device 20 or the detection device 50. It can be understood that each material transfer device 60 can correspond to one, two or more processing devices 20 or detection devices 50, and can adapt to the processing speed or detection speed.

[0038] The information collection device 70 is used to scan the first identification code and the second identification code to obtain information of the processing device 20 and the tool 21. In this embodiment, the information collection device 70 is a handheld terminal, which can obtain corresponding information by scanning the first identification code and the second identification code, and upload the information.

[0039] The processing center 80 is electrically connected to the processing device 20, the code scanning device 40, the detection device 50, the plurality of material moving devices 60 and the information collecting device 70. The processing center 80 can be a processor, a computer, etc., and can receive and transmit information.

[0040] Among them, the information collecting device 70 is used to transmit the information of the processing device 20 and the tool 21 to the processing center 80, the code scanning device 40 is used to transmit the information of the third identification code to the processing center 80, the material transfer device 60 transfers the workpiece 200 to the detection device 50 according to the information of the third identification code, the detection device 50 detects the workpiece 200, and transmits the detection data to the corresponding processing device 20 that processes the workpiece 200 through the processing center 80, and the processing device 20 adjusts the tool 21 according to the detection data.

[0041] It can be understood that in this embodiment, after the detection device 50 detects the workpiece 200, it obtains the dimensional parameters of the workpiece 200 and compares them with the standard parameters, thereby obtaining the data that the corresponding tool 21 needs to compensate. After the processing center 80 transmits the information to the processing device 20 that processes the workpiece 200, the processing device 20 compensates the position of the corresponding tool 21 so that the processing parameters meet the standard. It can be understood that if the deviation of the detection result is large and cannot be compensated by the processing device 20 itself, the processing center 80 sends a signal to remind the operator to change the tool or make adjustments through an alarm or other means.

[0042] The processing and detection equipment 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can transfer the workpiece 200 through the assembly line device 10, process the workpiece 200 through the processing device 20, and detect the workpiece 200 through the detection device 50. During the tool change operation, the operator scans the first identification code on the processing device 20 and the second identification code on the tool 21 through the information collection device 70, and the information collection device 70 uploads the information of the processing device 20 and the tool 21 to the processing center 80. Then the material transfer device 60 transfers the workpiece 200 from the assembly line device 10 to the processing device 20, the processing device 20 processes the workpiece 200, and processes a third identification code on the workpiece 200, and the third identification code stores the corresponding information of the processing device 20 and the tool 21. After the processing is completed, the material transfer device 60 places the workpiece 200 on the assembly line device 10 for transmission, the cleaning device 30 cleans the workpiece 200, and the code scanning device 40 scans the third identification code. If the workpiece 200 needs to be inspected, the material moving device 60 corresponding to the inspection device 50 moves the workpiece 200 to the inspection device 50 for inspection, and the inspection device 50 uploads the inspection data to the processing center 80, and the processing center 80 transmits the inspection data to the corresponding processing device 20, and the processing device 20 can adjust the tool 21 according to the inspection data. The above-mentioned processing inspection equipment 100 can automatically perform inspection and can automatically adjust the machine, with high inspection efficiency and high inspection accuracy. The automatic transmission of inspection data can effectively reduce the standby time of the processing device 20 and improve the processing efficiency.

[0043] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pipeline device 10 includes a transmission pipeline 11 and a detection pipeline 12.

[0044] The transmission line 11 is arranged corresponding to the processing device 20, and is used to transmit the unprocessed workpiece 200 and the workpiece 200 processed by the processing device 20. The cleaning device 30 and the code scanning device 40 are both arranged on the transmission line 11. The detection line 12 is arranged adjacent to the end of the transmission line 11 for discharging, and is used to transmit the workpiece 200 to be detected. The detection device 50 is arranged adjacent to the detection line 12. At least one material transfer device 60 is arranged between the transmission line 11 and the detection line 12, and is used to transfer the workpiece 200 on the transmission line 11 to the detection line 12.

[0045] When the unprocessed workpiece 200 is transferred to the position of the processing device 20 via the transmission line 11, the material transfer device 60 corresponding to the processing device 20 places the workpiece 200 in the processing device 20 for processing. The material transfer device 60 corresponding to the processing device 20 is also used to transfer the processed workpiece 200 from the processing device 20 to the transmission line 11. When the processed workpiece 200 is transferred to the cleaning device 30 via the transmission line 11, the cleaning device 30 cleans the workpiece 200, and then the workpiece 200 moves to the code scanning device 40. After the code scanning device 40 scans the third identification code on the workpiece 200, the information of the workpiece 200 is obtained. If the workpiece 200 needs to be inspected, the material transfer device 60 arranged between the transmission line 11 and the inspection line 12 transfers the workpiece 200 to be inspected to the inspection line 12, and the inspection line 12 moves the workpiece 200 to be inspected to the inspection device 50 for inspection. Other workpieces 200 that do not need to be inspected continue to move along the conveying line 11 .

[0046] By setting up the transmission assembly line 11 and the detection assembly line 12, the workpiece 200 has a clear circulation path at different stages. The transmission assembly line 11 corresponds to the processing device 20, which is responsible for conveying the unprocessed workpiece 200 and receiving the processed workpiece 200, ensuring the smooth connection between the processing link and the subsequent links. The detection assembly line 12 is specifically used to transmit the workpiece 200 that needs to be inspected, and has a reasonable division of labor with the transmission assembly line 11, avoiding mutual interference between the workpieces 200 under different demand states during the circulation process, and can efficiently guide the workpiece 200 to the corresponding processing, testing and other process links, which overall improves the circulation efficiency of the workpiece 200 in the entire processing and testing equipment 100.

[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The assembly line device 10 also includes a processing assembly line 13 and a transfer mechanism 14.

[0048] The processing line 13 is arranged adjacent to one end of the transmission line 11 for feeding, and the processing line 13 is used to transmit the unprocessed workpiece 200 and the workpiece 200 processed by the processing device 20, and the processing line 13 passes through the cleaning device 30. In this embodiment, a plurality of processing devices 20 can be arranged to correspond to the processing line 13, and the workpiece 200 on the processing line 13 can be processed and cleaned. By setting the processing line 13, the assembly line device 10 can be adapted to more processing devices 20 within the same length, which can effectively improve and save the occupied space, and is conducive to reducing production costs.

[0049] The transfer mechanism 14 is set up on the transmission line 11 and the processing line 13, and the transfer mechanism 14 is spaced apart from the cleaning device 30 along a preset direction. The transfer mechanism 14 includes a transfer drive 141 and a transfer gripper 142. The transfer drive 141 is used to drive the transfer gripper 142 to transfer the workpiece 200 on the processing line 13 to the transmission line 11. The transfer drive 141 can be a drive device such as a linear module, and the transfer gripper 142 can be a suction cup gripper, etc. The workpiece 200 on the processing line 13 can be transferred to the transmission line 11 through the transfer mechanism 14, so as to facilitate subsequent operations such as scanning the workpiece 200.

[0050] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The processing and testing equipment 100 also includes a plurality of temporary storage devices 90 , which are all arranged on the assembly line device 10 and correspond to the processing device 20 and the testing device 50 respectively. The temporary storage device 90 includes two lifting components 91 , a positioning component 92 and a material sensor 93 .

[0051] The two lifting assemblies 91 each include a lifting drive 911 and a carrier plate 912 connected to the lifting drive 911. The two lifting drives 911 are respectively disposed on both sides of the assembly line device 10 perpendicular to a preset direction, and the two carrier plates 912 are disposed on the upper side of the assembly line device 10 and are disposed opposite to each other. The lifting drive 911 may be a drive device such as a cylinder, and it can be understood that the distance between the two carrier plates 912 is less than the width of the workpiece 200, so that when the workpiece 200 flows onto the two carrier plates 912, the two carrier plates 912 can cooperate with each other to carry the workpiece 200.

[0052] The positioning assembly 92 includes a stopper 921, a bracket 922, a fixed positioning member 923 and two movable positioning members 924. The stopper 921 is connected to the ends of the two material carriers 912 along the preset direction. The bracket 922 is arranged on the assembly line device 10 and is close to the head ends of the two material carriers 912 along the preset direction, and is erected above the assembly line device 10. The fixed positioning member 923 is arranged on one material carrier 912. The two movable positioning members 924 are respectively arranged on the bracket 922 and the other material carrier 912. The two movable positioning members 924 are respectively arranged corresponding to the stopper 921 and the fixed positioning member 923. The stopper 921 can be a rod-shaped or plate-shaped structure, the fixed positioning member 923 can be a block-shaped or strip-shaped structure, and the movable positioning member 924 can be a matching structure of a cylinder and a push rod.

[0053] The material sensor 93 is connected to the carrier plate 912 and is arranged on the side of the stopper 921 facing the bracket 922. The material sensor 93 is used to sense the workpiece 200. The material sensor 93 can be a beam sensor, such as an infrared beam sensor, a laser beam sensor, etc. A transmitter can be arranged on one of the carrier plates 912, and a corresponding receiver can be arranged on the other carrier plate 912. When the workpiece 200 moves between the transmitter and the receiver, the workpiece 200 blocks the signal between the transmitter and the receiver, and the material sensor 93 sends a signal, indicating that the workpiece 200 moves to the position of the material sensor 93.

[0054] Among them, the two lifting driving members 911 are used to drive the two material carriers 912 and the stopper 921 to approach the assembly line device 10, so that the workpiece 200 moves to the upper side of the two material carriers 912 under the drive of the assembly line device 10, and the stopper 921 is used to stop the workpiece 200. The two lifting driving members 911 are also used to drive the two material carriers 912 and the stopper 921 to drive the workpiece 200 away from the assembly line device 10 in the vertical direction when the material sensor 93 senses the workpiece 200, and make the workpiece 200 correspond to the movable positioning member 924 on the bracket 922. The two movable positioning members 924 are used to push the workpiece 200 to the fixed positioning member 923 and the stopper 921 respectively to position the workpiece 200. It can be understood that the height of the workpiece 200 away from the assembly line device 10 is greater than the thickness of the workpiece 200, so that other workpieces 200 can continue to move from the assembly line device 10.

[0055] In order to improve the efficiency of processing and detection, the assembly line device 10 is equipped with multiple processing devices 20 and multiple detection devices 50. In this embodiment, each processing device 20 and each detection device 50 is equipped with a temporary storage device 90. The following takes the processing device 20 as an example to illustrate the working process of the temporary storage device 90. Multiple unprocessed workpieces 200 move along the assembly line device 10. When the unprocessed workpiece 200 moves to the position of the temporary storage device 90 corresponding to one of the processing devices 20, the temporary storage device 90 lifts the workpiece 200, and other unprocessed workpieces 200 can pass under the workpiece 200. When other unprocessed workpieces 200 pass through the temporary storage device 90 corresponding to other processing devices 20, the corresponding temporary storage device 90 lifts the corresponding workpiece 200. When processing is required, the material transfer device 60 transfers the workpiece 200 located on the temporary storage device 90 to the corresponding processing device 20. It can be understood that the operating principle of the temporary storage device 90 corresponding to the detection device 50 is the same, and it will not be repeated here. In this embodiment, a clinker assembly line (not shown) may be provided near the plurality of processing devices 20. When the processing device 20 completes processing of the workpiece 200, the material transfer device 60 may place the workpiece 200 on the clinker assembly line for transmission, and the clinker assembly line may transmit the workpiece 200 to the cleaning device 30 for cleaning. Alternatively, the processing assembly line 13 may be used to transmit the unprocessed workpiece 200, and the transmission assembly line 11 may be used to transmit the processed workpiece 200.

[0056] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 5 , the code scanning device 40 includes a support frame 41 and a code scanner 42. The support frame 41 is arranged on the assembly line device 10, the code scanner 42 is connected to the support frame 41, and is arranged above the assembly line device 10, and the code scanner 42 is used to scan the third identification code on the workpiece 200. By setting the support frame 41, the code scanner 42 can be stably set above the assembly line device 10, which is convenient for installing and positioning the code scanner 42, ensuring that the code scanner 42 is in a suitable position to accurately scan the third identification code on the workpiece 200. The code scanner 42 is connected to the support frame 41 and arranged above the assembly line device 10, so that it maintains an appropriate distance and angle with the workpiece 200, which is conducive to the code scanner 42 to clearly and accurately scan the third identification code, reduce scanning errors and omissions, and improve the success rate and efficiency of scanning, thereby providing accurate data support for subsequent operations such as workpiece 200 transfer, processing device 20 and tool 21 adjustment based on the identification code information.

[0057] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 5The barcode scanning device 40 also includes a guide assembly 43, which includes two guide members 431. The two guide members 431 are both arranged below the support frame 41 and are symmetrically connected to the assembly line device 10. Each guide member 431 includes a guide portion 4311 and a limit portion 4312 that are relatively arranged. One end of the guide portion 4311 is connected to the assembly line device 10 for guiding the position of the workpiece 200. The limit portion 4312 is connected to the other end of the guide portion 4311. The limit portion 4312 is used to limit the moving position of the workpiece 200. The barcode scanner 42 is arranged relatively to the two limit portions 4312. The guide member 431 can be a rod-shaped structure. The guide part 4311 of the guide member 431 guides the position of the workpiece 200, and the limit part 4312 limits the moving position of the workpiece 200, so that the workpiece 200 can arrive under the scanner 42 in the correct position and posture, ensuring that the scanner 42 can accurately scan the third identification code on the workpiece 200, reducing scanning failures or errors caused by position offset or skew of the workpiece 200, and improving the success rate and accuracy of scanning.

[0058] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 The cleaning device 30 includes a spray mechanism 31, a wind cutting mechanism 32 and a drying mechanism 33 which are sequentially arranged along the transmission direction of the assembly line device 10. The spray mechanism 31 is used to spray liquid on the workpiece 200 to clean the workpiece 200, the wind cutting mechanism 32 is used to clean the liquid on the workpiece 200, and the drying mechanism 33 is used to dry the workpiece 200. Through the sequential action of the spray mechanism 31, the wind cutting mechanism 32 and the drying mechanism 33, a multi-step and comprehensive cleaning of the workpiece 200 is achieved. The spray mechanism 31 sprays liquid to clean the workpiece 200, which can remove most of the impurities and stains on the surface of the workpiece 200; the wind cutting mechanism 32 further cleans the residual liquid on the workpiece 200 to prepare for subsequent drying; the drying mechanism 33 completely removes the moisture on the surface of the workpiece 200 to ensure that the workpiece 200 is dry and clean, thereby ensuring the thoroughness of the cleaning, improving the cleanliness of the workpiece 200, and making the third identification code on the workpiece 200 clearer, which is convenient for the scanning device 40 to scan the third identification code.

[0059] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6, the cleaning device 30 also includes a lower assembly line 34 and an upper assembly line 35. The lower assembly line 34 is at the same horizontal plane as the assembly line device 10, and is used to transport the workpiece 200. The upper assembly line 35 is set above the lower assembly line 34, and the upper assembly line 35 is used to cooperate with the lower assembly line 34 to clamp the workpiece 200 and transport the workpiece 200. Both the upper assembly line 35 and the lower assembly line 34 can be mesh belt assembly lines, drum assembly lines, etc. The upper assembly line 35 is set above the lower assembly line 34, and the two can cooperate to clamp the workpiece 200. During the cleaning process, the position of the workpiece 200 can be effectively fixed to prevent the workpiece 200 from being displaced, shaken or dropped due to operations such as spraying and wind cutting, thereby ensuring the stability and accuracy of the cleaning operation and helping to improve the cleaning effect and quality. In this embodiment, the cleaning device 30 also includes necessary structures such as a water tank, a filter, and a water pump, which are not described in detail here.

[0060] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 The spray mechanism 31 includes an upper spray assembly 311 and a lower spray assembly 312.

The upper spray assembly 311 and the lower spray assembly 312 spray and clean the upper surface and the lower surface of the workpiece 200 respectively, which can more specifically remove stains, impurities, etc. on different surfaces of the workpiece 200. Compared with a single spraying method, the cleaning is more comprehensive and thorough, which helps to improve the cleanliness of the workpiece 200.

[0061] The wind shear mechanism 32 includes an upper wind shear component 321 and a lower wind shear component 322. The upper wind shear component 321 is arranged above the upper assembly line 35 and is used to clean the liquid on the upper surface of the workpiece 200. The lower wind shear component 322 is arranged below the lower assembly line 34 and is used to clean the liquid on the lower surface of the workpiece 200. The upper wind shear component 321 and the lower wind shear component 322 clean the liquid on the upper and lower surfaces of the workpiece 200 respectively, and can quickly and effectively remove the residual cleaning liquid on the surface of the workpiece 200, reduce the residual amount of liquid on the surface of the workpiece 200, provide better conditions for the subsequent drying process, and also prevent the cleaning liquid from dripping on other parts of the equipment or the working environment, so as to keep the equipment and the environment clean.

[0062] The drying mechanism 33 includes an upper drying assembly 331 and a lower drying assembly 332. The upper drying assembly 331 is arranged above the upper assembly line 35 and is used to dry the upper surface of the workpiece 200. The lower drying assembly 332 is arranged below the lower assembly line 34 and is used to dry the lower surface of the workpiece 200. The upper drying assembly 331 and the lower drying assembly 332 dry the upper and lower surfaces of the workpiece 200 at the same time, and can heat the workpiece 200 from two directions at the same time, so that the moisture on the surface of the workpiece 200 evaporates faster, shortens the drying time, and improves the drying efficiency, which is conducive to speeding up the speed of the entire processing and testing process and improving production efficiency.

[0063] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The material transfer device 60 includes a material transfer drive 61 and a material transfer claw 62. The material transfer drive 61 is arranged adjacent to the assembly line device 10. The material transfer claw 62 is connected to the material transfer drive 61. The material transfer drive 61 is used to drive the material transfer claw 62 to move. The material transfer claw 62 is used to grab or release the workpiece 200. The material transfer drive 61 can be a driving device such as a robotic arm, and the material transfer claw 62 can be a suction cup claw, etc. The material transfer drive 61 accurately controls the movement of the material transfer claw 62 to ensure that the workpiece 200 is accurately transferred between the processing device 20 and the detection device 50, etc., to improve the processing and detection accuracy; greatly improve the production efficiency, its fast and continuous operation characteristics shorten the circulation time of the workpiece 200, reduce manual intervention, and ensure production continuity and stability. In addition, it is easy to integrate into the entire processing and detection equipment 100, cooperate with other components and connect to the automatic control system to realize automatic material transfer operation, and improve the automation and intelligence level of the equipment.

[0064] The working process of the processing and testing equipment 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is roughly as follows: First, before the operator performs a tool change operation on the processing device 20, the operator first scans the first identification code on the processing device 20 and the second identification code on the tool 21 through the information collection device 70, and the information collection device 70 uploads the information of the processing device 20 and the tool 21 to the processing center 80. Then the tool change operation is performed, and after the tool change operation is completed, the processing device 20 starts to work.

[0065] When the workpiece 200 moves along the transmission line 11 or the processing line 13 to the corresponding temporary storage device 90, the temporary storage device 90 lifts the workpiece 200, and the material transfer device 60 transfers the workpiece 200 to the processing device 20 for processing. The processing device 20 processes a third identification code on the workpiece 200, and the third identification code stores the information of the processing device 20 and the tool 21. After the processing is completed, the material transfer device 60 takes the workpiece 200 out of the processing device 20 and places it in the corresponding transmission line 11 or the processing line 13. The workpiece 200 flows to the cleaning device 30, and the cleaning device 30 cleans and dries the workpiece 200. When the workpiece 200 located on the processing line 13 moves to the position of the transfer mechanism 14, the transfer mechanism 14 transfers the workpiece 200 to the transmission line 11, and the transmission line 11 transfers all the workpieces 200 to the code scanning device 40.

[0066] Then, when the workpiece 200 passes through the barcode scanning device 40, the barcode scanning device 40 scans the third identification code on the workpiece 200 and uploads the information to the processing center 80. If the workpiece 200 is not the workpiece 200 that is processed for the first time after the tool change, the workpiece 200 continues to move along the transmission line 11; if the workpiece 200 is the workpiece 200 that is processed for the first time after the tool change, the material moving device 60 adjacent to the barcode scanning device 40 transfers the workpiece 200 to the inspection line 12, and the inspection line 12 moves the workpiece 200 that needs to be inspected.

[0067] When the workpiece 200 to be inspected moves along the inspection line 12 to the temporary storage device 90 corresponding to the inspection device 50, the temporary storage device 90 lifts up the workpiece 200 to be inspected, and other workpieces 200 to be inspected flow to other inspection devices 50. The material transfer device 60 corresponding to the inspection device 50 transfers the workpiece 200 on the temporary storage device 90 to the inspection device 50, and the inspection device 50 inspects the workpiece 200. After the inspection is completed, the inspection device 50 uploads the inspection data to the processing center 80, and the processing center 80 compares the inspection data with the standard data and sends the result to the corresponding processing device 20. The processing device 20 performs position compensation on the tool 21 according to the result, so that the tool 21 meets the processing requirements.
