TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of aluminum profile processing, in particular to an intelligent high-efficiency high-capacity aluminum profile production system and method. BACKGROUND
[0002] The current aluminum profile market demand is rapidly upgrading towards "high capacity and fast delivery", but the existing aluminum profile production technology has obvious short boards in the production line architecture and function integration: most production lines still use traditional fixed layout, and have not formed a modular factory production line design. Each production link is an independent unit, the number and type of equipment are fixed, and it is not possible to flexibly adjust the configuration according to the capacity fluctuation. At the same time, in the existing technology, such as the process handover between extrusion molding and aging oxidation, it needs to rely on manual assistance, the automation level is low, the production link connection is discontinuous, and it is difficult to adapt to the production demand of high efficiency and high capacity. The overall efficiency of the production line is limited by the "short board link", and if the capacity needs to be expanded or the technology needs to be upgraded in the future, the production line needs to be reformed on a large scale, which is high in cost and long in cycle.
[0003] In view of this, the present application is proposed. SUMMARY
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide an intelligent high-efficiency high-capacity aluminum profile production system and method to solve the problems in the background art.
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides an intelligent high-efficiency high-capacity aluminum profile production system, which adopts a modular factory production line arrangement, including a melting and casting rod module, an extrusion molding module, an aging oxidation module, and a finishing module connected in sequence, and further includes an intelligent logistics module.
[0006] The intelligent logistics module includes an RGV, an AGV, a transfer vehicle, and a suspended beam transportation line. The AGV is used to transfer the aluminum rod bundle produced by the melting and casting rod module to the extrusion molding module. The transfer vehicle is used to move the aluminum profile produced by the extrusion molding module to the aging oxidation module. The suspended beam transportation line is used to move the oxidized aluminum profile produced by the aging oxidation module to the finishing module.
[0007] The melting and casting rod module includes a melting sub-module, a casting rod sub-module, and an initial processing and bundling sub-module. The melting sub-module includes a double-chamber furnace and a vibrating furnace for preparing aluminum liquid. The casting rod sub-module includes degassing equipment, filtering equipment, and a casting disc and rod unit for preparing aluminum rods. The initial processing and bundling sub-module includes an aluminum rod stacking and feeding machine, a cutting head and tail equipment with a single aluminum rod marking function, an aluminum rod hot shear saw equipment with a whole column and material separation function, an aluminum rod arrangement in and out of the material unit, a bundling and stacking equipment, and a bundling machine for preparing aluminum rod bundles. The aluminum rod bundles are transferred to the aluminum rod warehouse by the RGV.
[0008] Extrusion forming module: including west side extrusion line rod feeding manipulator, east side extrusion line rod feeding manipulator, extrusion sub-module; the extrusion sub-module contains extrusion machine and supporting aluminum rod furnace, follow-up saw, straightening correction equipment, large saw, and further includes upturning and arranging equipment; the upturning and arranging equipment adjusts the aluminum profile in horizontal state to vertical state;
[0009] Aging oxidation module: including air transportation feeding sub-module, vertical aging sub-module, oxidation sub-module; the air transportation feeding sub-module takes the large beam as the carrier, moves the large beam and the aluminum profile fixed by the large beam to the vertical aging sub-module; the vertical aging sub-module includes several vertical aging furnaces; the oxidation sub-module includes several oxidation lines;
[0010] Finishing module: including attitude adjustment sub-module and finishing sub-module; the attitude adjustment sub-module contains several downturning and arranging equipment, which is used for adjusting the aluminum profile in vertical state to horizontal state; the finishing sub-module contains several groups of finishing lines;
[0011] The upturning and arranging equipment converts the horizontal aluminum profile after extrusion to vertical state, the air transportation feeding sub-module drives the vertical aluminum profile into the vertical aging furnace, the aluminum profile after aging enters the oxidation line with the large beam, and then is sent to the downturning and arranging equipment through the suspended beam transportation line to convert to horizontal state; the upturning and arranging equipment, the vertical aging furnace and the downturning and arranging equipment are cooperatively designed to realize continuous production of the aluminum profile.
[0012] The four functional modules of melting and casting rod, extrusion forming, aging oxidation and finishing are divided by modularization, the cross-module transfer of the intelligent logistics module (RGV / AGV / transfer vehicle / suspended beam transportation line) is clearly divided, and the independent operation and seamless connection of each link are realized; the cooperative design of the upturning and arranging equipment (horizontal to vertical), the vertical aging furnace (frame-free) and the downturning and arranging equipment (vertical to horizontal) directly saves the two non-value-added processes of "disassembling and assembling special frame" of the traditional horizontal aging furnace, and avoids the secondary transfer loss of materials; the modular layout can flexibly adjust the number of equipment according to the production capacity demand, reserves space for subsequent integration of aluminum processing intelligent technology (such as automatic scheduling and data monitoring), significantly improves the production continuity and efficiency, and reduces the production line transformation cost.
[0013] Further, the number of the melting and casting rod module and the RGV is three, and the RGV is used for the flow of the aluminum rod in the melting and casting rod module (including the transfer of the aluminum rod from the preliminary processing and bundling sub-module to the aluminum rod warehouse); the number of the AGV is two and is arranged between the three melting and casting rod modules, and the two AGVs respectively transfer the aluminum rod bundle to the west side extrusion line rod feeding manipulator and the east side extrusion line rod feeding manipulator, to realize full-coverage transfer between the three melting and casting rod modules and the two extrusion lines.
[0014] Three melting and casting rod modules correspond to three RGVs, which can realize parallel production of aluminum rod preparation and greatly improve the basic production capacity of the melting and casting link; two AGVs are arranged between the three melting and casting modules and are respectively transferred to the west and east extrusion line rod feeding manipulators to avoid cross congestion of the transfer path; the RGV focuses on the aluminum rod circulation in the module (including transfer to the aluminum rod warehouse), and the AGV is responsible for cross-module distribution, which has clear division of labor, guarantees efficient output of the melting and casting link, ensures stable feeding of the extrusion link, and balances production capacity and logistics cost.
[0015] Further, the number of the shuttles is five, the number of the extrusion sub-modules is forty, each side of each shuttle corresponds to one up-turning arrangement device, and each up-turning arrangement device is correspondingly arranged at the end of four extrusion sub-modules; the west extrusion line rod feeding manipulator and the east extrusion line rod feeding manipulator correspond to the twenty extrusion sub-modules at the beginning of one side thereof respectively, and through the automatic scheduling function of the manipulator, uniform feeding of the aluminum rod to the twenty extrusion sub-modules is realized.
[0016] The forty extrusion sub-modules are divided into two groups (twenty each) and correspond to two rod feeding manipulators, which can realize large-scale parallel extrusion and break through the production capacity bottleneck of a single extrusion line; the design that each up-turning arrangement device corresponds to four extrusion sub-modules and each side of each shuttle corresponds to the up-turning arrangement device can simultaneously receive aluminum profiles of multiple groups of extrusion sub-modules, thereby shortening the residence time of the materials in the extrusion modules; the automatic scheduling of the manipulator ensures uniform feeding of the aluminum rod to the twenty extrusion sub-modules, avoids the idle of some extrusion sub-modules, and maximizes the utilization rate of the equipment in the extrusion link.
[0017] Further, in the aging and oxidation module, five aging furnaces are correspondingly arranged with the five shuttles, wherein the first, third and fifth aging furnaces correspond to the first, second and third oxidation lines, the second aging furnace supplies materials to the first and second oxidation lines according to the production capacity, and the fourth aging furnace supplies materials to the second and third oxidation lines according to the production capacity.
[0018] The five vertical aging furnaces correspond to the five shuttles one by one, which ensures that the aluminum profiles after extrusion enter the aging treatment without waiting, and avoids the accumulation of materials between extrusion and aging; the design that the first / third / fifth vertical aging furnaces are fixedly corresponding to the three oxidation lines and the second / fourth vertical aging furnaces flexibly supply materials can dynamically adjust the amount of materials according to the real-time load of each oxidation line, which prevents overload of a single oxidation line and avoids idle of the equipment, thereby significantly improving the production capacity utilization rate of the aging and oxidation module; at the same time, it lays a foundation for the connection of the subsequent oxidation lines and the suspension beam transportation line, and strengthens the continuity of the whole process.
[0019] Further, the number of the suspension beam transportation lines is three and they are correspondingly arranged at the end of the three oxidation lines, six down-turning arrangement devices are sequentially arranged below each suspension beam transportation line, two groups of finishing sub-modules are arranged on both sides of each down-turning arrangement device, and the finishing sub-modules include two groups of finishing lines.
[0020] Three sets of suspension beam transport lines correspond to three oxidation lines, reducing ground logistics conflicts through air transfer, and greatly improving the transfer efficiency of the oxidation to the finishing link; each suspension beam transport line is matched with six downward flipping and arranging devices, which can synchronously complete the "vertical to horizontal" posture adjustment of multiple batches of aluminum profiles, avoiding posture adjustment from becoming a bottleneck of finishing; the reasonable layout of "each downward flipping and arranging device having a set of finishing sub-modules (each set containing two finishing lines) on both sides" realizes the immediate shunting and parallel processing of aluminum profiles after posture adjustment, matches the oxidation line capacity, maximizes the equipment utilization rate of the finishing link, and ensures the balance of the whole process capacity.
[0021] A production method of an intelligent high-efficiency high-capacity aluminum profile production system, comprising the following steps:
[0022] S1. Melting and casting rod: the raw material is melted by the double-chamber furnace of the melting and casting rod module, and is treated by the vibration furnace; the treated aluminum liquid is purified by the degassing device and the filtering device in sequence, enters the rod casting unit to form an aluminum rod; the aluminum rod is processed by the aluminum rod stacking and feeding machine, the cutting head and tail device, and the aluminum rod hot shear saw device, and then is homogenized and cooled by the aluminum rod stacking and feeding unit, and is baled and stacked by the baling machine, and is transferred to the aluminum rod warehouse by the RGV;
[0023] S2. Extrusion molding: the baled aluminum rod is transferred to the west side extrusion line rod feeding manipulator and the east side extrusion line rod feeding manipulator by the AGV, and is automatically dispatched and shunted to the corresponding twenty extrusion sub-modules by the manipulator; after the aluminum rod is preheated by the aluminum rod furnace and extruded by the extruder, it is cut off by the follow-up saw, straightened by the straightening and correcting device, and precisely cut by the large saw, and then is adjusted to a vertical state by the upward flipping and arranging device, and finally is transferred to the aging oxidation module by the shuttle car;
[0024] S3. Aging oxidation: the shuttle car sends the aluminum profile in the vertical state to the air transportation feeding sub-module, and the air transportation feeding sub-module drives the aluminum profile into the corresponding vertical aging furnace; after aging treatment, the aluminum profile enters the matched oxidation line with the girder, and completes surface oxidation;
[0025] S4. Finishing: the oxidized aluminum profile is transferred to the downward flipping and arranging device by the corresponding set of suspension beam transport lines, and after being adjusted to a horizontal state by the downward flipping and arranging device, it enters the finishing sub-modules on both sides, and the finishing lines of the finishing sub-modules complete precise machining;
[0026] The method is deeply adapted to the modular production line structure, step S1 realizes the orderly transfer of aluminum bars after bundling to the warehouse by RGV, ensuring the convenience of raw material calling; step S2 realizes the uniform distribution of aluminum bars to multiple extrusion sub-modules by the cooperation of AGV and manipulator, and adjusts the posture with the help of the upward arrangement device, reducing manual intervention; step S3 clearly allocates materials according to the corresponding relationship between vertical aging furnaces and oxidation lines, saves the frame loading process, and improves the continuity of aging and oxidation; step S4 realizes the efficient distribution of aluminum profiles to the finishing line through the connection of the suspended beam transportation line and the downward arrangement device; the whole process has high automation degree, greatly reduces operation errors and labor costs, significantly improves production efficiency and product consistency, and fully adapts to the demand for high efficiency and high productivity.
[0027] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present application are:
[0028] 1. Modular layout enables flexible production and low-cost upgrade: The present application adopts modular factory production line layout, divides aluminum profile production into four functional modules of melting and casting, extrusion molding, aging and oxidation, finishing and an intelligent logistics module, and the number and type of each module equipment can be flexibly adjusted according to the capacity demand (such as increasing the melting and casting module to improve the supply of aluminum bars, and expanding the extrusion sub-module to strengthen parallel processing), completely solving the problem of "equipment cannot be adjusted and capacity expansion is difficult" of traditional fixed layout; At the same time, the modular architecture provides sufficient space for subsequent integration of aluminum processing intelligent technology (such as material automatic scheduling system, equipment operation data monitoring platform, process cooperation control algorithm), which can complete technology upgrade without large-scale modification of the production line, greatly reducing the time cost and economic cost of production line modification, and adapting to the demand for high efficiency and high productivity at different stages.
[0029] 2. Breakthrough the bottleneck of continuity by collaborative design of aging link: Through the collaborative design of the upward arrangement device (horizontal aluminum profile after extrusion is converted to vertical), the vertical aging furnace (direct aging without frame), and the downward arrangement device (vertical aluminum profile after oxidation is converted to horizontal), the two non-value-added processes of "aluminum profile disassembly and assembly special frame" required by the traditional horizontal aging furnace are directly saved, not only reducing labor operation cost and material loss such as surface scratching and deformation, but also completely opening up the continuous material flow channel of "extrusion aging oxidation"; combined with the air transportation feeding sub-module (large beam bearing vertical profile) and the suspended beam transportation line (connecting oxidation and finishing), the aluminum profile realizes "posture adjustment aging oxidation adjustment" without secondary transfer from extrusion to finishing, the waiting time between processes is shortened by more than 80%, significantly improving production continuity and breaking through the core bottleneck of traditional production line aging link restricting capacity.
[0030] 3. Intelligent logistics and process connection to improve overall process efficiency: The intelligent logistics module integrates RGV (aluminum bar circulation in the melting and casting module), AGV (aluminum bar bundle and flow in the cross-module), shuttle (transfer from extrusion to aging), and suspension beam transportation line (oxidation to precision machining transportation), reduces manual intervention of materials between modules, and has high degree of automation; At the same time, the number of extrusion sub-modules (forty parallel processing), vertical aging furnace (five flexible feeding), oxidation line (three matching aging capacity), and precision machining sub-module (multiple parallel processing) are adapted and automatically scheduled to ensure balanced matching of production capacity in each link and avoid single link accumulation or idling; The design of full-process automation and collaboration not only shortens the aluminum profile production cycle by more than 15%, but also reduces the product failure rate caused by manual operation errors, improves production efficiency and capacity, ensures product quality consistency, and meets large-scale and high-standard aluminum profile production requirements.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0041] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the application will be apparently and completely described in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work belong to the protection scope of the application.
[0042] Please refer to Figures 1-10 The application provides a technical solution: an intelligent high-efficiency high-capacity aluminum profile production system and method. The specific embodiment is based on a 360,000-ton-per-year solar aluminum alloy frame project, and produces 6063-T5 and 6005A-T6 series solar photovoltaic module aluminum alloy frames. The frames cover mainstream photovoltaic module specifications of 166 mm, 182 mm and 210 mm, and the cross sections include U-shaped, rectangular and reinforced types. The specific configuration of the basic equipment of the system includes: three melting and casting rod modules (each module includes two double-chamber furnaces and 12 vibration furnaces), 40 extrusion sub-modules (20 on the west side and 20 on the east side), five vertical aging furnaces, three oxidation lines, three groups of suspension beam transport lines, an intelligent logistics system (three RGVs, two AGVs and five transfer cars).
[0043] Embodiment one: full-load operation: 360,000 tons of solar aluminum alloy frames per year. The embodiment corresponds to the full order state of the project, the XX photovoltaic power station cluster project order, and 180,000 tons of 210 mm photovoltaic module U-shaped aluminum alloy frames need to be delivered within six months. The cross-sectional size is 55 mm x 40 mm, with a Φ8 mm mounting hole. At this time, the full-capacity mode needs to be started to ensure that the daily output is 1200 tons, and the product meets the requirements of: oxidation film thickness ≥12 μm, tensile strength ≥175 MPa.
[0044] Step 1: The melting and casting rod link prepares special aluminum rods for solar frames: The chemical composition precision of the aluminum rod required by the solar aluminum alloy frame is very high. For example, the Si content in 6063-T5 needs to be controlled within 0.45%-0.9%, and the Mg content needs to be controlled within 0.45%-0.9%. A deviation of more than 0.05% will affect the weather resistance of the frame, and the aluminum rod supply cannot be interrupted when the capacity is full, otherwise the extrusion link will be "stuck" due to the lack of materials. Therefore, three melting and casting modules need to be fully opened, and 1200 tons of qualified aluminum rods need to be produced daily. We use the "three melting and casting module cooperation + component precision control" method, and the operation is as follows:
[0045] Raw material ratio and smelting: 6 double-chamber furnaces in 3 modules are fully opened, and 99.7% electrolytic aluminum ingots and Si ingots (purity 99.9%) and Mg ingots (purity 99.8%) are put in according to the 6063 alloy ratio, electrolytic aluminum ingots 97.8%, Si ingots 0.7%, Mg ingots 0.5%, and the rest is impurities. The smelting temperature is controlled at 745-755℃, which is 5-10℃ higher than that of ordinary aluminum profiles, to ensure that the alloy elements are fully dissolved. Each double-chamber furnace produces 8 tons of aluminum liquid per hour, and 6 furnaces produce a total of 48 tons per hour;
[0046] Purification of aluminum liquid and composition detection: 12 vibrating furnaces (4 per module) are maintained at 725-735℃, the aluminum liquid is first passed through 18 degassing equipment (6 per module), using "nitrogen + argon mixed blowing" (volume ratio 3:1), flow rate 0.9m 3 / h, to remove H2 (content ≤0.12mL / 100gAl); then pass through 18 filtration equipment (3 layers of 20μm ceramic plate) to filter oxide inclusions (particle size ≤10μm); after purification, sample once per hour, use a direct-reading spectrometer to detect the composition, and adjust immediately if the deviation exceeds 0.03%;
[0047] Casting rod forming and homogenization: 18 casting disc rod units (6 per module) use "horizontal continuous casting", with a casting speed of 75mm / min, which is 5mm / min slower than ordinary profiles, reducing grain coarsening, and preparing 6063 aluminum rods with a diameter of 150mm. Solar frame extrusion requires larger diameter aluminum rods; aluminum rods enter 12 aluminum rod arranging and discharging units (4 per module), which are homogenized at 125℃ for 5 hours, which is 1 hour longer than ordinary profiles, to eliminate composition segregation;
[0048] Primary processing and bundling: 3 sets of primary processing equipment are fully opened, aluminum rods are fed to the cutting head and tail equipment through the 50-rod stacking feeder per hour, and the defective sections of 150mm at both ends are cut off. The two-dimensional code containing the alloy type and batch number is marked, then cut into 3.5m sections by hot shearing, which is suitable for solar frame extrusion dies, and finally bundled by bundling and stacking equipment, with 15 rods per bundle and a weight of about 2.2 tons. 3 RGVs transfer 3 aluminum rod warehouses, which store 2400 tons of inventory for 2 days.
[0049] Example: When producing 6063 aluminum rods for 210mm component frames, 3 smelting and casting modules operate for 23 hours per day, with 1 hour reserved for slag cleaning. Each shift inputs 920 tons of electrolytic aluminum ingots, and outputs 1150 tons of qualified aluminum rods, close to the 1200 tons of full production target. During this period, the Si ingot feeding valve of 1 double-chamber furnace failed, and the scheduling system immediately allocated the Si feeding task of this furnace to the other 5 furnaces. At the same time, the spectrometer detected a composition deviation of 0.02%, and automatically adjusted the Mg ingot feeding amount, which returned to normal within 30 minutes. Traditional single smelting and casting lines would be shut down for at least 3 hours in such a situation, resulting in a daily output of 24 tons of aluminum rods less. However, this solution has no impact on supply.
[0050] The unique technical means of this step is the control of special components for photovoltaics + multi-module cooperation. Compared with the existing known technology: the known technology only has a single line, no real-time spectrum detection, component deviation is more than 0.08%, and aluminum rod homogenization time is 4 hours; the present scheme has three modules in parallel, real-time spectrum detection makes the component deviation less than or equal to 0.03%, the homogenization time is extended to 5 hours, the grain uniformity of the aluminum rod is improved by 30%, the salt spray resistance of the subsequent extruded solar frame is far superior to that of ordinary profiles for 1000 hours, and the neutral salt spray is 1500 hours without corrosion, and the output of the full-capacity aluminum rod is 3 times that of the existing known technology, which fully meets the high requirements of photovoltaic frames.
[0051] Step 2: extrusion molding link: extruding the aluminum rod into a solar frame profile. The cross-sectional accuracy of the solar aluminum alloy frame directly affects the installation of the photovoltaic module, such as the groove width deviation of the U-shaped frame needs to be less than or equal to 0.3mm, otherwise the sealing rubber strip cannot be installed, and when the full capacity is required, 1200 tons of frame profiles need to be extruded per day, therefore 40 extrusion sub-modules are fully opened, and the cross-sectional size needs to be stable. We use the method of "40 extrusion sub-modules divided into parallel lines + precise mold temperature control", as follows:
[0052] Aluminum rod preheating and mold preparation: 2 AGVs with a load of 5 tons transfer aluminum rod bundles from 3 warehouses to the west and east rod feeding manipulators (1 each), each manipulator feeds 40 rods per hour; the aluminum rod furnace of the 40 extrusion sub-modules is preheated to 500-515°C, which is 10-15°C higher than that of ordinary profiles, to ensure uniform softening of the aluminum rod, and the preheating time is 35 minutes; the extrusion mold is made of H13 steel, with a TiAlN coating on the surface to improve wear resistance, and the mold temperature is controlled at 480-490°C, with a deviation of ±2°C, controlled by a heating rod in real time;
[0053] Extrusion and size detection: 40 1800-ton extrusion machines extrude at a speed of 5m / min, which is 1m / min slower than ordinary profiles, to form a 55mm×40mm U-shaped frame profile; a follow-up saw (cutting speed 450mm / s) is used to cut into 6.2m long (200mm longer than the photovoltaic module, leaving a machining allowance), and 3 samples are taken per hour, and the cross-sectional size is detected by a three-coordinate measuring instrument, and the groove width deviation is adjusted immediately if it exceeds 0.2mm;
[0054] Straightening and posture adjustment: the straightening and correcting equipment uses a "five-roller correction" method, which is 2 rollers more than ordinary profiles to improve straightness, with a correction force of 120kN to ensure that the straightness of the profile is less than or equal to 0.8mm / m, and the straightness of ordinary profiles is less than or equal to 1mm / m; 10 hydraulic-driven upward turning devices are used, one for every 4 extrusion sub-modules, to turn the horizontal profile into a vertical state in 12 seconds per rod, which is convenient for loading into the subsequent vertical aging furnace and avoids scratching the frame notch; 5 10-ton transfer cars are used to transfer to the aging and oxidation module, with a transfer rate of 180 rods per hour.
[0055] Example: When producing 210mm component U-shaped frame, 40 extrusion sub-modules produce 50 tons of profile per hour, and 1200 tons per day. During the period, one extruder's mold heating rod fails, and the dispatching system immediately transfers the production task of the sub-module to the standby sub-module, and adjusts the same specification mold in advance. The switching is completed in only 5 minutes, and the daily output is only 2.5 tons less. The traditional extrusion line requires at least 1 hour to change the mold, and the output is 5 tons less. After switching, the size deviation is easy to exceed 0.3mm, while the deviation after switching in this scheme is still ≤0.2mm, which fully meets the requirements of photovoltaic.
[0056] The unique technical solution of this step is "photovoltaic frame special extrusion parameters + standby sub-module switching". Compared with the public document aluminum profile extrusion line: the document has 20 extrusion sub-modules, no mold temperature control, cross-section deviation ≤0.5mm, straightness ≤1mm / m; this scheme has 40 modules in parallel, mold precise temperature control + five-roll correction, cross-section deviation ≤0.3mm, straightness ≤0.8mm / m, frame installation adaptation rate from ordinary line 95% to 99.8%, and standby sub-module switching speed is 3 times faster, full capacity is 2 times of the public document, which meets the large batch production demand of photovoltaic frame.
[0057] Step 3-5: aging oxidation, finishing, intelligent logistics link: adjust the solar frame, briefly.
[0058] Aging oxidation: 5 vertical aging furnaces (135℃×5.5h, 0.5h longer than ordinary profiles) to improve the strength of the frame; 3 oxidation lines (oxidation film thickness 14μm, 2μm thicker than ordinary profiles) to enhance weather resistance, NiSO4+CoSO4 mixed solution for sealing (to improve sealing quality), and no corrosion after 1500 hours of neutral salt spray test;
[0059] Finishing: 18 down-flip sorting equipment turns vertical profiles into horizontal, 36 groups of finishing lines (each group contains numerical control drilling machine, milling slot machine), drills Φ8mm mounting hole (hole deviation ±0.1mm, adapts to photovoltaic component bolt), mills 5mm deep sealant groove (groove depth deviation ±0.05mm), processes 54 tons per hour;
[0060] Intelligent logistics: the dispatching system monitors the frame inventory in real time, 2 AGVs transport 210mm frame aluminum bars preferentially, 5 transfer cars ensure that the aging furnace does not run out of materials, 3 groups of suspension beam transport lines send the oxidized frame to finishing, and 1200 tons are transported per day without congestion.
[0061] Example two: reduce load operation: annual capacity of 200,000 tons of solar aluminum alloy frame. This example corresponds to the reduction of photovoltaic off-season orders, for example, in the third quarter of a year, only 200,000 tons of orders are received (including 166mm and 182mm component frames, 556 tons per day), part of the equipment needs to be shut down to reduce energy consumption, while ensuring that the frame quality does not decrease.
[0062] Step 1-5:
[0063] Melting: Close 1 melting module (No. 3), reduce the melting speed of 4 double-chamber furnaces of 2 modules to 6 tons / hour, still real-time detect the composition of molten aluminum (deviation ≤0.03%), daily average production of aluminum bars is 528 tons, energy consumption is reduced from 0.6 million kWh / day to 0.28 million kWh / day;
[0064] Extrusion: Close 20 extrusion sub-modules on the east side, reduce the extrusion speed of 20 modules on the west side to 4.5 m / min, still control the mold temperature at 480-490℃, daily average production of profiles is 384 tons, energy consumption is reduced from 7.2 million kWh / day to 2.88 million kWh / day;
[0065] Aging and oxidation: Close 2 aging furnaces and 1 oxidation line, still control the temperature of 3 aging furnaces at 135℃ for 5.5 hours, the oxidation film of 2 oxidation lines is 14μm, to ensure weather resistance;
[0066] Finishing: Close 1 group of suspension beam transport line, 6 down-turning and arranging equipment, and 12 groups of finishing lines, 24 groups of lines preferentially process 166mm frames, daily average processing is 384 tons;
[0067] Logistics: Close 1 RGV, 1 AGV, and 2 transfer cars, adjust the route of the scheduling system, daily average transfer is 384 tons, without material breakage.
[0068] Energy consumption is reduced by 56.6% under the same load, but the key indicators such as composition deviation of solar frame and oxidation film thickness do not change, the installation and adaptation rate of 166mm frame is still 99.8%, and the closed module equipment is treated with anti-rust (such as mold coated with anti-rust oil), and the subsequent order recovery can be restarted in 2 hours (traditional line needs 8 hours).
[0069] Example Three: Expansion operation: annual production capacity of 500,000 tons of solar aluminum alloy frame. This example corresponds to the surge of orders in the photovoltaic peak season, for example, 500,000 tons of orders are received in the fourth quarter, including 210mm large-size component reinforced frames, daily average is 1389 tons, and new equipment needs to be added to expand capacity without stopping production.
[0070] Step 1-5:
[0071] Melting: Add 2 melting modules (No. 4 and No. 5, standardized interface), open 10 double-chamber furnaces of 5 modules, daily average production of aluminum bars is 1440 tons, the composition deviation of aluminum bars of the added modules is ≤0.03%, installation is completed in 30 days, and the traditional line is completed in 90 days;
[0072] Extrusion: Add 20 extrusion sub-modules on the south side, standardized interface, extrusion speed of 60 modules is 5m / min, daily average production of profiles is 1800 tons, the mold temperature control of the added modules is consistent with the original one, and installation is completed in 20 days;
[0073] Aging oxidation: add 3 aging furnaces and 2 oxidation lines, 8 aging furnaces at 135°C for 5.5 hours, 5 oxidation lines with 14μm oxidation film, suitable for 1800 tons / day capacity;
[0074] Finishing: add 2 groups of suspension beam transport lines, 12 down-turning and arranging devices, and 24 groups of finishing lines, with 60 groups of lines processing 1800 tons per day, capable of processing the tapping demand of reinforced frames;
[0075] Logistics: add 2 RGVs, 2 AGVs, and 3 transfer vehicles, expand the dispatching system software, transfer 1800 tons per day, and the response time is ≤10 seconds.
[0076] Annual capacity from 360,000 liters to 500,000 tons (39% increase), expansion cost 4 million yuan (traditional line 10 million yuan), during the expansion period, the original module still produces 21.6 million tons of frames (no order breach), and the reinforced frame tensile strength ≥180MPa, which meets the requirements.
[0077] Example Four: Parallel finishing of multiple specifications of solar aluminum alloy frames, modular adaptation to multiple demands. This example corresponds to the scenario of parallel processing of multiple specifications of customer orders, for example, in January, three large orders are received simultaneously: A customer needs 50,000 tons of 210mm component reinforced U-shaped frames (cross-section 60mm×45mm, with Φ10mm tapping holes, 8mm deep sealing grooves), B customer needs 30,000 tons of 182mm component ordinary U-shaped frames (cross-section 50mm×38mm, with Φ8mm light holes, 6mm deep sealing grooves), and C customer needs 20,000 tons of 166mm component rectangular frames (cross-section 45mm×35mm, with Φ6mm light holes, no sealing grooves), total order 100,000 tons (333 tons per day). At this time, parallel processing is required through modular finishing lines to ensure simultaneous production of different specifications of frames without interference and quick switching.
[0078] Step 1: Order demand disassembly and module allocation: The main differences in specifications of solar frames are "cross-sectional size, hole type, groove type". If a single finishing line is used for production, frequent tool replacement and parameter adjustment are required, which will result in low efficiency (1 hour is required for each switching) and large size deviation (the first 10 frames after switching may exceed the tolerance). The finishing module of this scheme adopts the design of "independent sub-module + standardized interface", which can allocate dedicated sub-modules according to order demand, realize parallel production, and solve the problem of multiple specification switching. We use the method of "order disassembly → sub-module grouping → parameter presetting", the operation is as follows:
[0079] Demand disassembly: First, sort out the core processing requirements of the three orders: A order (210mm reinforced type) needs to "drill Φ10mm hole -> tap M10 thread -> mill 8mm deep sealing groove", size deviation requirement: hole position ±0.1mm, thread accuracy 6H, groove depth ±0.05mm; B order (182mm ordinary type) needs to "drill Φ8mm hole -> mill 6mm deep sealing groove", deviation: hole position ±0.1mm, groove depth ±0.05mm; C order (166mm rectangular) only needs to "drill Φ6mm hole", deviation: hole position ±0.1mm;
[0080] Submodule grouping: Among the existing 36 groups of finishing submodules (example one configuration), 12 groups are allocated to A order (A1-A12), 8 groups to B order (B1-B8), 6 groups to C order (C1-C6), and the remaining 10 groups are reserved (to cope with order increment or equipment failure); Each group of submodules contains an independent numerical control system, a tool library (A group is equipped with Φ10mm drill + M10 tap + 8mm milling cutter, B group is equipped with Φ8mm drill + 6mm milling cutter, C group is equipped with Φ6mm drill);
[0081] Parameter presetting: Enter the processing parameters of the corresponding order in advance in each submodule numerical control system: A group (drilling speed 2500r / min, feed speed 80mm / min; tapping speed 500r / min, feed speed 8mm / min; milling groove speed 3000r / min, feed speed 100mm / min); B group (drilling speed 3000r / min, feed speed 100mm / min; milling groove speed 3500r / min, feed speed 120mm / min); C group (drilling speed 3500r / min, feed speed 120mm / min); At the same time, enter the order priority in the intelligent scheduling system (A order has a tight delivery date, with the highest priority) to ensure that materials are allocated to A group submodules first.
[0082] Example: On January 10th, three orders start production at the same time: at 8 am, the cantilever transport line will separate the oxidized frames by specifications: 60mm x 45mm profiles to A1-A12 group, 50mm x 38mm to B1-B8 group, 45mm x 35mm to C1-C6 group; A group sub-module processes 2.5 tons of reinforced frames per hour (45 seconds per root), B group processes 2 tons of ordinary type per hour (30 seconds per root), C group processes 1.8 tons of rectangular per hour (20 seconds per root); at 12 noon, A customer temporarily requires an additional 1000 reinforced frames (about 5 tons), the dispatching system immediately adjusts 2 standby sub-modules (A13-A14) to A order parameters, and starts production within 15 minutes, completing the incremental demand on the same day. Traditional single finishing line needs to stop B order production, change tools and adjust parameters (at least 1 hour) when encountering such a situation, and the thread accuracy of the first 10 frames of A order may exceed 6H after switching. However, the standby sub-module of this scheme is pre-set with A order parameters, and the first root meets the standard after switching.
[0083] The unique design of this step is "multi-specification order dedicated sub-module + parameter preset + standby module rapid energy supplement". Compared with the public document aluminum profile finishing line: this document has only 12 sub-modules, and multiple specifications need to be produced in sequence, with a switching time of 1 hour. The daily average multi-specification capacity is only 100 tons, and the probability of size deviation exceeding 0.1mm is 10%. This scheme has 36 sub-modules in parallel, without the need for frequent switching, with a daily average multi-specification capacity of 333 tons (3.3 times that of the public document), a standby module switching time of only 15 minutes, and a size deviation exceeding 0.1mm probability of ≤0.5%. In addition, the tool library of the dedicated sub-module is independent, avoiding scratches caused by mixing different specification tools (such as a 10mm milling cutter for A order will not scratch a 6mm hole for C order), reducing the solar frame surface scratch rate from 3% to 0.2%, fully meeting the appearance requirements of photovoltaic modules.
[0084] Step 2: Parallel processing and quality control: When multiple specifications of frames are produced in parallel, if quality control is not in place, it is easy to cause "specification confusion" (such as misjudging A order's 10mm hole frame as B order's 8mm hole) or "parameter drift" (such as A group sub-module's tapping speed decreasing leading to thread accuracy not meeting the standard), therefore a "real-time detection + system error-proofing" control mechanism needs to be established. We use the method of "online detection + system binding + manual review", the operation is as follows:
[0085] Online detection binding: a visual detection system is installed at the outlet of each group of sub-modules, group A detects "hole diameter + thread type", group B detects "hole diameter + groove depth", and group C detects "hole diameter", the detection speed is 15 rods per minute, the detection data of each frame is bound with the order number and sub-module number, and is uploaded to the MES system; if an out-of-tolerance is detected, such as a thread accuracy of 7H for a frame in group A, the system immediately stops the sub-module, and at the same time an alarm is prompted for adjustment, such as increasing the tapping speed from 500 r / min to 520 r / min;
[0086] Material mistake proofing: the oxidized frame is attached with a two-dimensional code on the suspension beam conveying line, containing the specification and order number, and after the code is scanned by the scanner at the inlet of each sub-module, only the frame of the corresponding specification is received. If the code scanning finds that a 45mm profile of C order is sent to A group sub-module, the system immediately intercepts the profile and re-diverts it to C group to avoid specification confusion;
[0087] Manual review: manual sampling is performed once every 2 hours, 5 frames are sampled from group A, 3 frames are sampled from group B, and 2 frames are sampled from group C, the thread accuracy of group A is detected by a thread gauge, and the groove depth of group B is detected by a depth gauge, the review data is consistent with the online detection to ensure that there is no system misjudgment.
[0088] Example: on January 15, the tapping motor of A5 sub-module in group A has a slight fault, the speed is reduced from 500 r / min to 480 r / min, the online detection system finds that the thread accuracy of the first frame is 7H (exceeding the requirement of 6H), and immediately stops and alarms; the maintenance personnel replace the motor within 10 minutes, and the thread accuracy of the first frame returns to 6H after restarting, during which groups A1-A4 and A6-A12 are still in normal production, and the daily output of A order is only reduced by 0.5 tons. If this situation occurs in a traditional line, the entire line needs to be stopped for maintenance, and 2 tons of production is lost, and 20 out-of-tolerance frames may have been produced; while in this scheme, the sub-modules are independent, only one group is affected, and no out-of-tolerance frame flows out due to the real-time interception of the online detection.
[0089] The unique technical means of this step is "multi-specification dedicated detection + two-dimensional code mistake proofing + sub-module independent shutdown", compared with the public document: the public document has no online visual detection, manual sampling is performed once every 4 hours, out-of-tolerance products are easily missed, and the specification confusion rate is 2%; the online detection in this scheme is 15 frames per minute, two-dimensional code mistake proofing, the specification confusion rate is 0, and the out-of-tolerance product interception rate is 100%; the manual review frequency is increased to once every 2 hours to ensure the reliability of the detection data; in addition, the sub-modules are independently shut down for maintenance, which does not affect the production of other groups, the equipment utilization rate is increased from 70% of the traditional line to 90% when multiple specifications are run in parallel, the A, B, and C orders are completed 2 days in advance, and the customer satisfaction rate is 100%.
[0090] Step 3: Order switching and sub-module reuse: After the completion of a multi-specification order, the sub-modules need to be quickly switched to a new order. For example, after the completion of A order, the A1-A12 group is switched to a new specification frame for producing 210mm components. If the switching process is complex, it may lead to the idling of sub-modules. The sub-modules of this scheme use "standardized tool interface + parameter template" for quick reuse and improve equipment utilization. We use "quick tool replacement + parameter template calling" as follows:
[0091] Tool replacement: After the completion of A order, the tools of A1-A12 group sub-modules use "quick tool holder" (HSK-A63 type) to replace Φ10mm drill bit with Φ9mm drill bit (new order requirement) only 2 minutes / group, without the need for retooling (tool holder repositioning accuracy ≤0.005mm);
[0092] Parameter calling: The processing parameters of the new order are created in the MES system in advance (such as "210mm new specification: drilling speed 2800r / min, feed speed 90mm / min"), and the template is directly called in the sub-module numerical control system during switching, 1 minute / group for parameter setting;
[0093] Trial production verification: After switching, the first frame processing is completed, and the online detection system automatically detects the size. After meeting the standards, batch production can be carried out without long-term trial production. A1-A12 group is switched from A order to new order only 25 minutes (12 groups are switched synchronously, 2 minutes for tool replacement + 1 minute for parameter setting + 2 minutes for trial production), and immediately put into new order production.
[0094] Example: On January 25, after the completion of A order 50,000 tons, A1-A12 group needs to be switched to a new specification frame for producing 210mm components (cross section 62mm x 47mm, Φ9mm hole). 12 groups of sub-modules replace tools and call parameters synchronously, and 25 minutes are needed for switching. 12 tons of new specification frames are produced in the afternoon of the same day. Traditional line switching of 12 groups of equipment needs 6 hours (30 minutes for each group, switching in turn), and only 2 tons of new specification frames can be produced on the same day. After switching, 50 roots need to be trial-produced for verification, while this scheme only needs to be trial-produced for 1 root to meet the standards, greatly shortening the switching cycle.
[0095] The unique design of this step is "quick tool holder + parameter template + rapid trial production". Compared with the public document: it takes 15 minutes to replace the tool per group, it takes 5 minutes to manually input parameters per group, it takes 3.5 hours to switch 12 groups, and the idle rate of the equipment is high; this scheme only takes 25 minutes to switch 12 groups, the idle rate of the equipment is reduced by 90%, and the trial production of 1 root meets the standard, the material loss is reduced from 50 roots per switch of the traditional line to 1 root per switch, which can save the cost of solar frame materials; in addition, the standardized design of the sub-module makes the tool and parameter reusable across groups, such as the quick tool holder of group A can be used for group B, and there is no need to purchase additional special equipment when subsequent new orders are added, which is suitable for the order trend of "multi-specification and small batch" in the photovoltaic industry.
[0096] In summary: the system is aimed at the high requirements of solar aluminum alloy frame composition precision, weather resistance and size adaptability, and realizes flexible switching of "full production of 360,000, reduced production of 200,000, and expansion of 500,000" through modular design, especially the multi-specification parallel finishing of the fourth embodiment, which solves the switching difficulty, low efficiency and easy to exceed the problem of simultaneous production of multiple orders of photovoltaic frames. Compared with the prior art, this scheme has a significant breakthrough in the quality stability of solar frames (composition deviation ≤0.03%, oxidation film 14μm), production flexibility (multi-specification parallel daily average 333 tons), and expansion convenience (30 days of new modules), and fully meets the production needs of the photovoltaic industry for "high quality, large batch, multi-specification" of aluminum alloy frames.
