[0051] With the rapid development of the construction and manufacturing industries, formwork processing technology has also been continuously improved. Formwork is widely used in construction to shape materials such as concrete.

[0052] In the related technology, the existing aluminum formwork processing technology mainly uses 500 wide U-shaped and C-groove substrates, which are manually sawed, single-sided punched, drilled / punched, and cut, and then two pieces are spliced ​​into one piece for welding. This processing method requires multiple stand-alone equipment to process separately, with frequent transportation, and increases the labor intensity of workers, resulting in low production efficiency of aluminum formwork.

[0053] In order to solve the problem of low production efficiency of aluminum templates in the related art, firstly, referring to Figure 1An embodiment of the present application provides an aluminum formwork production line, comprising a frame 100, a control system 800, and a loading assembly 200, a sawing and conveying assembly 300, a horizontal punching assembly 400, a vertical punching assembly 500, a milling and drilling assembly 600, and a unloading assembly 700 connected to the control system 800 and arranged in sequence along the length direction of the frame 100, wherein the frame 100 is arranged along the transmission direction of the aluminum formwork production line; the loading assembly 200 is used to sequentially place a plurality of neatly stacked aluminum formwork substrates 900 to be processed on the conveyor line located at the head end of the frame 100; the sawing and conveying assembly 300 is used to saw the end face of the aluminum formwork substrate 900 to be processed, and the control system 800 is based on ..., and the end face of the aluminum formwork substrate 900 to be processed is sequentially placed on the conveyor line located at the According to the size information of the aluminum formwork substrate after sawing and the obtained order information, the target specifications and models of the adapted aluminum formwork finished products and their corresponding target processing parameters are determined; the horizontal punching component 400 is used to perform horizontal punching on the aluminum formwork substrate after sawing according to the target processing parameters; the vertical punching component 500 is used to perform vertical punching on the aluminum formwork substrate after horizontal punching according to the target processing parameters to obtain a punched aluminum formwork substrate; the milling and drilling component 600 is used to perform milling and drilling on the punched aluminum formwork substrate according to the target processing parameters to obtain a processed aluminum formwork; the unloading component 700 is arranged at the unloading end of the frame 100, and is used to continue to convey the processed aluminum formwork to the next workstation and stack it in an orderly manner.

[0054] Among them, a plurality of rollers 110 are rotatably connected to the frame 100, and the length direction of the rollers 110 is perpendicular to the transmission direction of the aluminum template. The frame 100 is also provided with a driving member for driving the rollers 110 to rotate. Taking into account the inconsistent degree of synchronization between different processes, the driving member in this embodiment can be set to multiple, so as to respectively perform start and stop control and speed control on the rollers 110 corresponding to a single process or the rollers 110 corresponding to multiple processes. The control system 800 includes a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) control device and an MES (Manufacturing Execution System) system. The PLC control device is used to receive input signals (such as sensor signals, button commands, etc.), process these signals according to a preset logic program, and output control signals (such as motor start, valve opening and closing, etc.), so as to achieve precise control of the operation of the equipment. The PLC control device in this embodiment is used to control the operation of equipment such as sawing, punching, milling, and drilling according to the processing parameters issued by the MES system; it can also be used to collect the operating status of the equipment in real time (such as substrate size, processing progress, etc.) and upload these data to the MES system; it can also perform logical judgment according to the instructions of the MES system to ensure that each process is carried out in sequence.

[0055] The MES system is a computerized system for managing the production process, which is mainly responsible for real-time monitoring and data management of the entire process from order receipt, production planning to finished product offline. It is closely integrated with the company's ERP system (Enterprise Resource Planning System) and equipment PLC to ensure the efficiency and traceability of the production process. The MES system in this embodiment is used to generate the optimal processing parameters according to the substrate model and order requirements, and send these parameters to the PLC-controlled equipment; it can also collect the operating data of the equipment (such as processing progress, number of finished products, etc.) in real time and generate a production report. The size information of the aluminum template substrate after sawing includes information such as the length, width and height of the substrate. The target processing parameters can be the processing parameters matched by the MES system according to the size information of the aluminum template substrate after sawing, including but not limited to parameters such as sawing length, punching position, drilling depth, so that the PLC controls the relevant equipment according to these processing parameters, and automatically completes the sawing, punching, drilling and other processes of the aluminum template substrate.

[0056] Specifically, workers can use a transfer trolley to stack the aluminum formwork substrate 900 to be processed at the loading end of the frame 100, and place it close to the loading assembly 200, and then control the loading assembly 200 through the control system 800 to load according to a preset loading order, such as from the inside to the outside, from the top to the bottom; after loading, the control system 800 controls the sawing and conveying assembly 300 to saw the end face of the substrate evenly; then the sawed aluminum formwork substrate is transferred to the horizontal punching assembly 400 for horizontal punching, and after the horizontal punching is completed, the substrate after horizontal punching is further transferred to the vertical punching assembly 500 for vertical punching, and after the vertical punching is completed, the punched aluminum formwork substrate is transferred to the milling and drilling assembly 600 for milling and drilling to obtain a processed aluminum formwork, and finally, the processed aluminum formwork is further transferred to the unloading assembly 700, and the unloading assembly 700 transfers the processed aluminum formwork to the next workstation so that workers or machines can stack them neatly.

[0057] The aluminum template production line in this embodiment realizes automatic loading of the aluminum alloy template substrate to be processed through the cooperation of the control system 800 and the loading component 200, without the need for human intervention; and through the cooperation of the control system 800 and the sawing and conveying component 300, after completing the smooth sawing of the end face of the substrate, the target specification model of the adapted aluminum template product and its corresponding target processing parameters are determined according to the size information of the aluminum template substrate after sawing and the acquired order information, so that the subsequent horizontal punching component 400, vertical punching component 500 and milling rib drilling component 600 can respectively perform horizontal punching, vertical punching and milling rib drilling according to the target processing parameters, thereby realizing the automated production of aluminum templates without excessive human intervention, thereby improving the production efficiency of aluminum templates; and helping to improve the production quality of aluminum templates.

[0058] Reference Figure 1 In some embodiments, the aluminum template production line also includes a label pasting component, which is connected to the control system 800 and is arranged on a side of the blanking component 700 away from the milling rib drilling component 600. The label pasting component is used to determine the corresponding factory label according to the specifications and models of the processed aluminum template, and paste the factory label onto the processed aluminum template.

[0059] Specifically, the factory label can be used to characterize the specification characteristics of the batch of aluminum formworks, so that workers or machines can classify and stack the processed aluminum formworks according to the label for subsequent transportation.

[0060] Second, combining Figure 2 An embodiment of the present application provides a control method for an aluminum template production line, which is applied to any aluminum template production line provided in the first aspect above. The control method comprises the following steps:

[0061] The control system 800 controls the loading assembly 200 to sequentially place a plurality of neatly stacked aluminum template substrates 900 to be processed on the conveyor line located at the head end of the frame 100;

[0062] The control system 800 controls the sawing and conveying assembly 300 to saw the end surface of the aluminum template substrate 900 to be processed, and determines the target specification model of the adapted aluminum template finished product and its corresponding target processing parameters according to the size information of the aluminum template substrate after sawing and the acquired order information;

[0063] The control system 800 sends the target processing parameters to the horizontal punching assembly 400, so that the horizontal punching assembly 400 performs horizontal punching on the sawed aluminum template substrate according to the target processing parameters;

[0064] The control system 800 sends the target processing parameters to the vertical punching assembly 500, so that the vertical punching assembly 500 performs vertical punching on the aluminum template substrate after horizontal punching according to the target processing parameters to obtain an aluminum template substrate after punching;

[0065] The control system 800 sends the target processing parameters to the rib milling and drilling assembly 600, so that the rib milling and drilling assembly 600 performs rib milling and drilling on the punched aluminum template substrate according to the target processing parameters to obtain a processed aluminum template;

[0066] The control system 800 controls the blanking assembly 700 to continue to transfer the processed aluminum template to the next workstation and stack it neatly.

[0067] Specifically, workers can use a transfer trolley to stack the aluminum formwork substrate 900 to be processed at the loading end of the frame 100, and place it close to the loading assembly 200, and then control the loading assembly 200 through the control system 800 to load according to a preset loading order, such as from the inside to the outside, from the top to the bottom; after loading, the control system 800 controls the sawing and conveying assembly 300 to saw the end face of the substrate evenly; then the sawed aluminum formwork substrate is transferred to the horizontal punching assembly 400 for horizontal punching, and after the horizontal punching is completed, the substrate after horizontal punching is further transferred to the vertical punching assembly 500 for vertical punching, and after the vertical punching is completed, the punched aluminum formwork substrate is transferred to the milling and drilling assembly 600 for milling and drilling to obtain a processed aluminum formwork, and finally, the processed aluminum formwork is further transferred to the unloading assembly 700, and the unloading assembly 700 transfers the processed aluminum formwork to the next workstation so that workers or machines can stack them neatly.

[0068] In some embodiments, the order information is obtained by scanning a QR code through the control system 800, and the order information includes size information and quantity information of each required product.

[0069] The order information includes the size and quantity information of aluminum templates of different production specifications. By scanning the QR code to upload the order information directly to the MES system, errors in manual input of order information can be avoided, which helps to improve the efficiency and accuracy of order data entry. In addition, after obtaining the size information of the aluminum template substrate after sawing, the MES system can automatically match the optimal template specifications and models based on the size information and the order information; the MES system will then send the matched processing parameters (such as sawing length, punching position, drilling depth, etc.) to the equipment PLC control device, so that the PLC control device can automatically complete the sawing, punching, drilling and other processes according to these processing parameters, that is, the target processing parameters, thereby helping to improve the production efficiency and production accuracy of the aluminum template.

[0070] In some embodiments, the control system 800 controls the loading assembly 200 to sequentially place a plurality of neatly stacked aluminum template substrates 900 to be processed on a conveyor line located at the head end of the frame 100, including:

[0071] The control system 800 controls the loading assembly 200 to search for edges of the aluminum template substrates 900 to be processed, so as to determine edge position information of each aluminum template substrate 900 to be processed;

[0072] The control system 800 controls the loading assembly 200 to place a single aluminum template substrate 900 to be processed on the conveyor line at the head end of the frame 100 according to a preset loading sequence.

[0073] In an automated processing system, substrates are usually stored in whole stacks. Edge search can determine the exact position of each substrate, ensuring that the substrates are stacked on the sawing conveyor assembly 300 from inside to outside and from top to bottom. If the edge search is inaccurate, the substrate may be misplaced or stuck during transportation, affecting the smooth progress of subsequent processes. Therefore, before loading, the edge of the substrate can be searched and determined. In addition, edge search is usually implemented through sensors or visual systems so that the edge of the substrate can be quickly located, reducing manual intervention and improving loading efficiency. Automated edge search can also adapt to substrates of different sizes and shapes to ensure the flexibility and versatility of the system.

[0074] In this embodiment, by searching and determining the edge of the aluminum template substrate before loading, the edge of the substrate can be quickly located, reducing manual intervention and improving loading efficiency; it can also ensure that the position of each substrate on the sawing and conveying assembly 300 is consistent, providing an accurate reference for subsequent sawing, punching, drilling and other processes; in addition, it can also avoid collision or friction between the substrate and the equipment during transportation, reduce equipment wear and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0075] In some embodiments, a single aluminum template substrate 900 to be processed is placed on a conveyor line at the head end of a rack 100, including:

[0076] The control system 800 determines the speed of the conveyor line based on the edge position information;

[0077] The control system 800 controls the loading assembly 200 to place a single aluminum template substrate 900 to be processed on the conveyor line.

[0078] According to the above content, the edge position information is obtained through a sensor or a visual system, and the control system 800 can calculate the starting position and target position of the aluminum template substrate on the conveyor line according to the edge position information, and can dynamically adjust the speed of the conveyor line according to the edge position information. The loading assembly 200 is usually composed of a robot arm, a clamp or a vacuum suction cup, etc., which is responsible for separating a single aluminum template substrate from the whole stack and placing it on the conveyor line.

[0079] Specifically, if the edge position information shows that the aluminum template substrate is far from the target position, the conveyor line will run at a higher speed to improve efficiency. If the edge position information shows that the aluminum template substrate is close to the target position, the conveyor line will run at a lower speed to ensure accurate positioning of the substrate. The control system 800 sends instructions to the loading component 200 based on the edge position information and the conveyor line speed. For example, the control system 800 will instruct the loading component 200 to grab the substrate at a specific time point and place it at a specified position on the conveyor line.

[0080] In some embodiments, the horizontal punching assembly 400 includes a horizontal punching clamp 410 and a horizontal die 420 arranged in sequence, and the horizontal punching assembly 400 performs horizontal punching on the sawn aluminum template substrate according to the target processing parameters, including:

[0081] According to the length of the aluminum template substrate after sawing, the horizontal punching clamp 410 is controlled to clamp the aluminum template substrate after sawing, and the horizontal punching clamp 410 is controlled to obtain the target processing parameters;

[0082] The horizontal punching clamp 410 is controlled to transport the sawn aluminum template substrate to the horizontal mold 420, and the horizontal mold 420 is controlled to process the holes in the horizontal part.

[0083] After sawing is completed, the PLC control device will record the length, width, height and other dimensional information of the aluminum template substrate after sawing, and these dimensional information will be uploaded to the MES system for matching the optimal processing parameters. The horizontal punching clamp 410 runs to the clamping position and clamps the aluminum template substrate after sawing according to the substrate length information. The built-in sensor or control system 800 on the clamp reads the target processing parameters, including the number of holes, the hole spacing, the hole size, etc. These parameters are usually issued by the MES system to ensure that the processing parameters are consistent with the order requirements.

[0084] Specifically, after the horizontal punching clamp 410 clamps the aluminum template substrate, it is transported to the horizontal mold 420. During the transportation process, the clamp will run according to the preset path and speed to ensure that the substrate is smoothly transported to the mold position. The horizontal mold 420 performs hole processing according to the target processing parameters. For example, the mold will complete the horizontal hole processing in sequence according to the number and spacing of holes. During the processing, the equipment PLC monitors the status and processing progress of the mold through sensors to ensure the processing quality. After the horizontal mold 420 completes the hole processing, the horizontal punching clamp 410 places the substrate in a fixed position and enters the next step of vertical punching or other processing procedures.

[0085] In some embodiments, the vertical punching assembly 500 includes a vertical punching clamp 510 and a vertical die 520. The vertical punching assembly 500 vertically punches the sawn aluminum template substrate according to target processing parameters, including:

[0086] Control the vertical punching clamp 510 to clamp the aluminum template substrate after horizontal punching, and control the vertical punching clamp 510 to obtain target processing parameters;

[0087] The vertical mold 520 is controlled to adjust the height of the punching needle according to the target processing parameters, and the vertical punching clamp 510 is controlled to transport the aluminum template substrate after horizontal punching to the vertical mold 520, so that the vertical mold 520 can perform hole processing in the vertical part.

[0088] Among them, after horizontal punching, the aluminum template substrate completes the horizontal hole processing, the PLC control device records the current state and size information of the substrate, and uploads it to the MES system; the vertical punching clamp 510 runs to the clamping position according to the size information of the substrate, and clamps the aluminum template substrate after horizontal punching; the clamp reads the target processing parameters through the sensor or control system 800, including the number of holes in the vertical direction, the hole spacing, the hole size, and the height of the punch needle. These parameters are issued by the MES system according to the order requirements to ensure that the processing is consistent with the order; after obtaining the target processing parameters, the vertical punching clamp 510 can accurately control the clamping force and processing position to avoid processing defects caused by parameter errors.

[0089] Specifically, the vertical mold 520 adjusts the height of the punch pin according to the target processing parameters. For example, if the order requires multiple holes in the vertical direction, the mold will adjust the height of the punch pin according to the hole spacing. During the adjustment process, the PLC control device monitors the state of the mold in real time to ensure the accuracy of the punch pin position. After the vertical punching clamp 510 clamps the substrate, it is transported to the vertical mold 520; during the transportation process, the clamp will run according to the preset path and speed to ensure that the substrate is smoothly transported to the mold position. The vertical mold 520 performs vertical hole processing according to the target processing parameters. For example, the mold will complete the vertical hole processing in sequence according to the number and spacing of holes; during the processing, the PLC control device monitors the state and processing progress of the mold through sensors to ensure the processing quality; after the vertical mold 520 completes the hole processing, the vertical punching clamp 510 places the substrate in a fixed position, ready to enter the next step of milling rib drilling or other processing steps.

[0090] In some embodiments, the rib milling and drilling assembly 600 includes an inlet sensor, a side pressure piece, a blocking cylinder, a roller 110, a rib milling piece 610, and a drilling piece 620. The rib milling and drilling assembly 600 performs rib milling and drilling on the punched aluminum template substrate according to target processing parameters, including:

[0091] When the inlet sensor detects the aluminum template substrate that has been punched, the roller 110 is controlled to start, and the blocking cylinder is controlled to rise to a preset height to achieve the limit of the aluminum template substrate that has been punched;

[0092] Control the pressure measuring piece to press the punched aluminum template substrate, control the roller 110 to stop rolling, and control the blocking cylinder to descend to the original position;

[0093] The rib milling component 610 and the hole drilling component 620 obtain target processing parameters, and respectively perform rib milling and hole drilling on the punched aluminum template substrate according to the target processing parameters.

[0094] Among them, the entrance sensor is installed at the entrance of the conveyor line to detect whether the punched aluminum template substrate has reached the designated position. When the sensor detects the substrate, the control system 800 will respond immediately and prepare for the milling and drilling process. After the entrance sensor detects the substrate, the control system 800 controls the roller 110 to start and continue to convey the substrate forward to the milling and drilling position; the start of the roller 110 ensures that the substrate can smoothly enter the processing area. The blocking cylinder is an important component for fixing the position of the substrate. When the roller 110 conveys the substrate to the designated position, the blocking cylinder rises to a preset height to limit the substrate to prevent it from moving during subsequent processing. By limiting the blocking cylinder, it is ensured that the substrate remains stable during the milling and drilling process to avoid processing defects caused by the movement of the substrate.

[0095] The pressure measuring piece is used to press the punched aluminum template substrate to ensure that the substrate will not move during the processing. The pressure measuring piece applies appropriate pressure through the control system 800 to meet the processing requirements of milling and drilling. When the pressure measuring piece presses the substrate, the roller 110 stops rolling to prevent the substrate from continuing to move during the processing. After completing the limiting task, the blocking cylinder drops to its original position to make room for the subsequent transportation of the substrate. After the substrate is pressed, the milling and drilling parts 620 can accurately process the substrate to avoid processing deviations caused by the movement of the substrate.

[0096] Specifically, the rib milling part 610 and the drilling part 620 obtain the target processing parameters through the control system 800, including the depth, width, shape, etc. of the rib milling, as well as the aperture, depth, position, etc. of the drilling hole. These parameters are usually issued by the MES system to ensure that the processing is consistent with the order requirements. The rib milling part 610 performs rib milling operation on the aluminum template substrate according to the target processing parameters. For example, the rib milling part 610 will process ribs of a specific shape and width on the surface of the substrate to enhance the strength and aesthetics of the substrate. During the processing, the control system 800 monitors the state of the rib milling part 610 in real time to ensure the processing quality. The drilling part 620 performs drilling operation on the aluminum template substrate according to the target processing parameters. For example, the drilling part 620 will process holes of a specific position and depth on the substrate to facilitate the subsequent installation of parts. During the processing, the control system 800 monitors the state and processing progress of the drilling part 620 in real time to ensure the accuracy of the hole position. In addition, rib milling and drilling are completed in the same process, which can reduce the number of times the substrate is transported and improve production efficiency.

[0097] In this embodiment, the entire process from substrate detection, transportation, pressing to rib milling and drilling is automatically completed by the control system 800, reducing manual intervention. The substrate can be ensured to be stable during processing by the pressure measuring piece pressing and the blocking cylinder limiting, and the rib milling and drilling piece 620 can accurately complete the processing. In addition, the automatic transportation of the roller 110 and the pressing operation of the pressure measuring piece simplify the clamping process of the substrate, shorten the processing cycle, and improve production efficiency.

[0098] In some embodiments, after the control system 800 controls the blanking assembly 700 to continue to transfer the processed aluminum template to the next station and stack it neatly, the method further includes:

[0099] The control system 800 controls the label sticking component to determine the corresponding factory label according to the specifications and models of the processed aluminum template, and sticks the factory label onto the processed aluminum template.

[0100] The blanking assembly 700 is responsible for removing the aluminum template substrate that has been milled and drilled from the processing area and transferring it to the next station. During the transfer process, the blanking assembly 700 will ensure the smooth transfer of the substrate according to the preset path and speed to avoid bumps or scratches. At the next station, the blanking assembly 700 will neatly stack the aluminum template substrate to ensure that the substrate is neatly arranged. The purpose of neat stacking is to facilitate subsequent labeling and factory inspection, and also to facilitate warehouse management.

[0101] The factory label is an important identification of the aluminum formwork, which records the key information of the formwork, including specifications, production date, batch number, customer information, quality inspection information, etc. The main function of the label is to facilitate subsequent traceability and management to ensure the controllable quality of the aluminum formwork.

[0102] Specifically, the label posting component obtains the specification and model information of the processed aluminum template through the control system 800. For example, the processing parameters of the template are read through the MES system or PLC to match the corresponding factory label; the control system 800 selects the corresponding factory label from the label database according to the template specifications and models. The label may be pre-printed and stored in the label library, or it may be printed in real time through a printer; the label posting component (such as a robotic arm or an automatic labeling machine) takes the corresponding label from the label library and accurately posts it at the designated position of the aluminum template. During the posting process, the component will adjust the label position according to the size and shape of the template to ensure that the label is firm and neat.

[0103] In this embodiment, by posting the factory label, the key information of the aluminum template is accurately recorded and marked, which is convenient for subsequent quality traceability and customer inquiries; moreover, the label posting component can automatically adjust the label position according to the template specifications to ensure the accuracy and aesthetics of the label posting; in addition, automatic label posting simplifies the factory process, shortens the factory time, and improves the factory efficiency of the aluminum template.

[0104] The detailed control method of this application can be found in Figure 2 According to the flowchart in the figure, the control method in the present application, based on being applicable to any one of the aluminum formwork production lines provided in the first aspect above, also has the technical effect of improving the production efficiency of the aluminum formwork by increasing the degree of automation in the production of the aluminum formwork.
