Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of furniture manufacturing equipment, and particularly to a cabinet drilling production line. Background Art

[0002] In the cabinet manufacturing industry, drilling holes in plates is an important link in the production process. Traditional cabinet plate drilling mainly relies on manual operation, which not only has a high labor intensity and low efficiency, but also is difficult to ensure the accuracy and consistency of drilling. With the rapid development of industrial automation technology, the market requirements for cabinet manufacturing are also constantly increasing, especially the pursuit of production efficiency and product quality is becoming more and more strict.

[0003] In the traditional drilling process, workers need to manually position the plates and then use drilling machines or punching presses to drill holes. This process not only takes time and effort, but also is prone to problems such as inaccurate positioning and poor drilling accuracy due to human factors. In addition, manual operation also has potential safety hazards, increasing the risks in the production process.

[0004] To overcome these deficiencies, some semi-automatic drilling equipment has emerged on the market, but these equipment usually can only complete simple positioning and drilling tasks, still require manual intervention, and cannot achieve fully automated production. At the same time, the accuracy and efficiency of these equipment are also limited, and it is difficult to meet the high requirements of modern cabinet manufacturing. Summary of the Invention
