Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of switch packaging combinations, and particularly to an electronic connector assembly device with a detection system and its detection method. Background Art
[0002] In the era of the rapid development of modern manufacturing, the tactile switch, as a commonly used component in electronic devices, has an expanding production scale and continuous growth in market demand. However, in the existing process of feeding, packaging, and fixing tactile switches, the degree of automation is generally low. Many enterprises still rely heavily on manual feeding operations, which not only have low efficiency but also high labor costs. Due to the large individual differences in manual operations, it is difficult to ensure the consistency and accuracy of each feeding, resulting in uneven product quality and a high defective rate.
[0003] Although some semi - automated devices have been put into use, manual intervention is still required in the connection of each link, and a coherent and efficient production line cannot be formed. For example, when transporting the components of the tactile switch to the packaging and fixing position, manual assistance is often required to adjust the position and posture, which seriously affects the improvement of production efficiency and is also difficult to meet the requirements of large - scale and high - quality production. In addition, the low degree of automation makes it difficult to collect and monitor data during the production process, and it is impossible to effectively analyze and adjust the production status in a timely manner, further restricting the improvement of production efficiency and product quality; and after long - term use of the existing multi - station structure, the deflection error will gradually accumulate, resulting in misalignment between the stations and the external structure, and it is necessary for staff to correct the error within a specified time, lacking the function of detecting the accurate position of the stations.
