Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of cutting and blanking bevel sorting, and in particular relates to an intelligent production line for cutting and blanking bevel sorting and a production method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the manufacturing fields of steel structure, vehicle engineering, mechanical engineering, shipbuilding, etc., cutting, beveling and sorting are important production links. Currently, the industry generally adopts the operation method of overhead crane, manual grinding, manual beveling and manual sorting.

[0003] This traditional operation method has many disadvantages: each process relies on manual operation and lacks effective automated connection, resulting in inconsistent operation processes and low operation efficiency; since most of the processes are manual operations, a large number of practitioners are required to complete various tasks, which not only increases labor costs, but also leads to high workload and labor intensity; in addition, manual operation has many unstable factors, such as manual groove defects and sorting errors, which are prone to problems such as defect repair, processing, and parts sorting and stacking errors, indirectly increasing production costs.

[0004] Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop a cutting and beveling sorting technology that can realize intelligent, automated continuous operation, reduce the number of operators, and improve operation efficiency and product quality. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intelligent production line for cutting, blanking and bevel sorting and a production method thereof, in order to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: an intelligent production line for cutting, blanking and beveling sorting, comprising an electric translation trolley, wherein the lower stations of the electric translation trolley are further provided with a steel plate buffer stacking position, a transverse trolley, a plasma / laser bevel cutting machine, a frame sorting station, a buffer position / manual sorting standby position, a small piece sorting station, a medium piece sorting station and a large piece sorting station in sequence;

[0007] The lateral stations of the small parts sorting station are also sequentially provided with small parts grinding, small parts beveling, small parts tray stacking and small parts tray caching;

[0008] The side stations of the middle piece sorting station are also provided with middle piece grinding, middle piece beveling station, middle piece pallet stacking and middle piece pallet buffering in sequence;

[0009] The lateral stations of the large-piece sorting station are also sequentially provided with large-piece buffering spaces and large-piece transfer parking spaces.

[0010] The present invention further describes that a pallet shoveling channel is provided on one side where the small-piece pallet cache, the medium-piece pallet cache and the large-piece transfer parking space are located.

[0011] The present invention further describes that a raw material yard is provided above the electric translation trolley.

[0012] The present invention further describes that a cutting tray is provided on the transverse moving trolley.

[0013] The present invention further illustrates that a conveying roller is further provided at the bottom of the large piece sorting station, and the other end of the conveying roller is connected to the frame sorting station.

[0014] The present invention further describes that a scrap steel box is provided on one side of the frame sorting station.

[0015] The present invention further states that the production line is equipped with a control system, which is used to:

[0016] Control the operation of the electric translation trolley and the transverse movement trolley to realize automatic material transportation, control the cutting operation of the plasma / laser beveling cutting machine, control the sorting operation of the frame sorting station, the small piece sorting station, the medium piece sorting station and the large piece sorting station, as well as the bottom lifting and sinking operation of the cutting tray, control the operation of subsequent processing equipment such as the small piece grinding, the small piece beveling, the medium piece grinding, and the medium piece beveling station. The control system also coordinates the operation between each station and equipment to realize automated and continuous operation of the entire production line.

[0017] The present invention further describes a production method of an intelligent production line for cutting, blanking, bevel sorting, characterized by:

[0018] S1: Using the electric translation trolley, the materials in the raw material yard are transferred to the front end of the production line;

[0019] S2: If the plasma / laser bevel cutting machine is currently operating, the material is temporarily stored in the steel plate buffer. When the plasma / laser bevel cutting machine is idle, the material is transported from the steel plate buffer to the plasma / laser bevel cutting machine via a transverse trolley for bevel cutting of the material to produce a cut piece.

[0020] S3: After the plasma / laser bevel cutting machine completes bevel cutting of the material, the transverse trolley automatically transports the cut parts to the frame sorting station via the cutting tray. The cut waste strips are sorted in the frame sorting station and placed in the scrap steel box on one side. The cutting tray is lifted upward for subsequent transportation.

[0021] S4: The sorted cut pieces are automatically transported to the small piece sorting station, the medium piece sorting station, and the large piece sorting station in sequence to sort the cut pieces according to different sizes. After the large piece sorting station completes the sorting, the cutting tray sinks downward and moves back to the frame sorting station via the conveyor roller at the bottom;

[0022] S5: After the cutting tray returns to the frame sorting station, the cutting tray is lifted upward, and then the cutting tray is transferred back to the transverse moving carriage, completing the closed loop of the entire transfer process;

[0023] S6: At the small piece grinding, small piece beveling, medium piece grinding, and medium piece beveling stations on the sides of the small piece sorting station and the medium piece sorting station, the sorted small cut pieces and medium cut pieces are automatically sorted, free edge polished, beveled, and stacked on classified pallets. The stacked pallets are transported to the downstream process by a forklift through the pallet shoveling channel on the side;

[0024] S7: The sorted large-piece cut pieces are cached in the large-piece cache location. When they need to be transferred, they are transferred to the subsequent process in the large-piece transfer location by large transport vehicles.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] (1) By setting up a series of automated equipment and workstations such as electric translation trolleys, steel plate buffer stacking positions, transverse trolleys, plasma / laser bevel cutting machines, etc., the whole process from raw material transportation to cut parts sorting is automated. The close connection between each workstation reduces the dependence on manual operation and avoids the problem of inconsistent operation process caused by manual operation in traditional operation mode, which significantly improves the operation efficiency and makes the overall operation of the production line smoother and more efficient.

[0027] (2) By setting up automated equipment and control systems, the number of workers required for each process has been greatly reduced. In traditional operation methods, a large number of workers are required to carry out crane lifting, manual grinding, manual beveling and manual sorting, which not only results in high labor costs but also high workload and labor intensity. This production line realizes intelligent and automated continuous operation, reduces dependence on labor, and thus effectively reduces labor costs and alleviates the workload of employees.

[0028] (3) By setting up a strict control process with automated equipment and control systems, such as plasma / laser beveling cutting machines to ensure cutting accuracy, accurate sorting at each sorting station, and precise operation of subsequent grinding, beveling and other processing equipment, the instability factors caused by manual operation, such as manual beveling defects and sorting errors, are reduced. This effectively avoids defect repair, processing, and parts sorting and stacking errors caused by manual operation errors, thereby reducing production costs and improving product quality and production stability.

[0034] The steel plate buffer stack 2 is used to temporarily store materials transferred from the electric translation trolley 1, and acts as a buffer when the subsequent cutting equipment is busy; the transverse trolley 3 is responsible for transporting materials or cut parts horizontally between each workstation; the plasma / laser bevel cutting machine 4 is used to perform bevel cutting operations on materials to produce cut parts that meet the requirements; the frame sorting station 5 is used to sort the waste edge strips after cutting and separate the waste edges from the effective cut parts; the cache position / manual sorting spare position 6 is used to buffer the station or perform manual sorting operations when necessary; the small part sorting station 7 is used to sort smaller parts in the cut parts; the medium part sorting station 8 is used to sort medium-sized parts in the cut parts; the large part sorting station 9 is used to sort larger parts in the cut parts.

[0035] The lateral stations of the small parts sorting station 7 are further equipped with small parts grinding 10, small parts beveling 11, small parts pallet stacking 12, and small parts pallet buffering 13. The small parts grinding 10 is used to grind the sorted small cut parts to remove burrs, oxide scale, and other impurities generated during the cutting process, thereby improving the surface quality of the cut parts. The small parts beveling 11 can further bevel the small cut parts according to product requirements to ensure that their bevel size and shape meet the requirements of subsequent processes such as welding. The small parts pallet stacking 12 neatly stacks the processed small cut parts for subsequent handling and storage. The small parts pallet buffering 13 caches the stacked cut parts and places them in storage, awaiting further transportation or shipment.
