Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of debugging technology for woodworking machinery cutting production lines, and in particular to a testing method for a simulation testing platform for woodworking machinery labeling machines. Background Technology

[0002] The multi-station woodworking cutting production line with labeling function consists of a labeling machine, a feeding section, a processing center, and an unloading section. It enables automatic labeling, loading, unloading, board picking, and board processing of boards simultaneously, significantly improving equipment utilization. The labeling machine is a crucial step before board cutting and is increasingly used in intelligent furniture production lines; it is an essential piece of equipment for digitalization. Traditional manual labeling is inefficient and prone to errors; the labeling machine avoids these problems. However, during production debugging, the labeling machine needs to be connected to the main electrical cabinet and main unit for motor signal, parameter, and operational function adjustments. This requires a large workspace, involves a complex process, and has a long production debugging cycle, making it unsuitable for flexible production. Figure 1 As shown, the existing woodworking machinery cutting production line's debugging layout structure includes a labeling machine 1, a main unit 2, a discharge device 3, and a control cabinet 4. During assembly and debugging, the labeling machine 1, the main unit 2, the discharge device 3, and the control cabinet 4 need to be placed together, and then the motor wires and signal wires are connected for testing. Although it can achieve the debugging purpose, it occupies a lot of space, and if there is any abnormality during debugging that requires maintenance, it is necessary to manually move around to adjust each part, which consumes more manpower and has a long debugging cycle.

[0003] Therefore, a new technology needs to be developed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention addresses the deficiencies of the existing technology, and its main objective is to provide a testing method for a simulation testing platform for a woodworking machinery labeling machine. This method uses a simulation testing platform to replace the main unit, the material discharge device, and the control cabinet, thereby reducing space occupation and labor costs, while also accelerating the debugging cycle.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A testing method for a woodworking machinery labeling machine simulation test platform, wherein the woodworking machinery labeling machine simulation test platform includes a support, a display screen, an electrical box, control components, system operation buttons, connecting cables, a test mode selection module, a keyboard, a mouse, a load switch, and a motor / signal output port; The electrical box is mounted on top of the bracket, the display screen is mounted on the upper side of the front wall of the electrical box, and the control element is installed inside the electrical box.

One end of the connecting cable is used to connect to the motor / signal output port, and the other end is used to connect to the corresponding interface on the labeling machine. The testing of the woodworking machinery labeling machine simulation test platform includes the following steps: Step 1: Connect both ends of the connecting cable to the motor / signal output port and the corresponding motor / signal interface on the labeling machine, and then turn on the power of the simulation test platform; Step 2: The labeling machine performs a self-test upon startup. If the self-test fails, perform troubleshooting. Step 3: After the labeling machine passes the self-inspection, it returns to the origin. If it fails to return to the origin, it is necessary to perform abnormal repair. Step 4: After the labeling machine returns to the origin and passes the test, switch to automatic mode; Step 5: Manually adjust parameters: Manually adjust the simulation test parameters of the simulation test platform; Step 6: Switch the simulation test platform to automatic mode, and the automatic test begins; Step 7: Perform an X-axis test on the labeling machine. If the X-axis test fails, perform troubleshooting. Step 8: After the X-axis test is passed, perform the Y-axis test on the labeling machine. If the Y-axis test fails, perform abnormal repair. Step 9: After the Y-axis test is passed, perform the labeling test of the labeling machine. If the labeling test fails, perform abnormal repair. Step 10: After the labeling test is passed, the lifting platform of the labeling machine is tested. If the lifting platform fails the test, the abnormality is repaired. Step 11: After the lifting platform passes the ascent test, the lifting platform of the labeling machine will be tested for descent. If the lifting platform fails the descent test, abnormal maintenance will be performed. Step 12: After the lifting platform descent test is passed, the labeling machine's lifting platform material arrival test is performed. If the lifting platform material arrival test fails, abnormal repair is performed. Step 13: After the lifting platform plate passes the placement test, perform the plate pulling test of the labeling machine. If the plate pulling test fails, perform abnormal repair. Step 14: After the pull plate test is passed, the test is completed, and the code is entered and saved on the simulation test platform.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, this invention has significant advantages and beneficial effects. Specifically, as can be seen from the above technical solution, it mainly replaces the main unit, the discharge device, and the control cabinet with a simulation test platform. This eliminates the need for the main unit, the discharge device, and the control cabinet when debugging the labeling machine of the woodworking machinery cutting production line, thus reducing space occupation and labor costs, and accelerating the debugging cycle. By designing a labeling machine simulation test platform, the labeling machine can be tested and debugged by simulating motor signals, parameters, and action functions. During debugging, it is only necessary to place the labeling machine and the simulation test platform together, and then connect the motor / signal output port of the simulation test platform to the corresponding interface on the labeling machine through a connecting cable. In this way, the input of various motor points, printer signals, and various switch signals on the labeling machine can be carried out through the HMI on the simulation test platform, and the signals can be transmitted to the labeling machine through the motor / signal output port. The I / O points on the simulation test platform can be used to output commands to test various functions and signals on the labeling machine, thereby determining whether the wiring and action simulation of each port and point on the labeling machine are correct. Furthermore, during testing, the two ends of the connecting cable are first connected to the motor / signal output port and the corresponding motor / signal interface on the labeling machine, respectively. Then, the power of the simulation test platform is turned on. After the labeling machine performs a self-test, returns to the origin, and switches to automatic mode, the simulation test parameters of the simulation test platform are manually adjusted. After switching the simulation test platform to automatic mode, the automatic test begins. Then, the X-axis test, Y-axis test, labeling test, lifting platform rise test, lifting platform fall test, lifting platform material arrival test, and plate pulling test are performed in sequence. After the test is completed, the code is entered and saved on the simulation test platform, enabling it to successfully complete the labeling machine test. It has the advantages of convenient testing and accurate test results.

[0020] Please refer to Figures 2 to 5 As shown, it illustrates the specific structure of the woodworking machinery labeling machine simulation test platform provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0021] The woodworking machinery labeling machine simulation test platform includes a bracket 10, a display screen 20, an electrical box 30, control components, system operation buttons, a connecting cable 40, a test mode selection module, a keyboard 50, a mouse 60, a load switch 70, and a motor / signal output port 80.

[0022] The electrical box 30 is mounted above the bracket 10, and the display screen 20 is mounted on the upper side of the front wall of the electrical box 30.

The keyboard 50 and / or mouse 60 can control the test mode selection module to select the test mode. One end of the connecting cable 40 is used to connect to the motor / signal output port 80, and the other end is used to connect to the corresponding interface on the labeling machine. In this way, by using a simulation test platform to replace the main unit, the discharge device, and the control cabinet, This design eliminates the need for a separate main unit, discharge device, and control cabinet when debugging the labeling machine on a woodworking machinery cutting production line. This reduces space requirements and labor costs, while also accelerating the debugging cycle. A simulated testing platform for the labeling machine is designed to perform simulated tests and debugging of motor signals, parameters, and operational functions. During debugging, simply place the labeling machine and the simulated testing platform together, and connect the motor / signal output port 80 of the simulated testing platform to the corresponding interface on the labeling machine via the connecting cable 40. This allows for input of various motor positions, printer signals, and switch signals from the labeling machine via the HMI on the simulated testing platform, which in turn transmits these signals to the labeling machine via the motor / signal output port 80. Furthermore, commands can be output from the I / O points on the simulated testing platform to test the functions and signals of the labeling machine, thereby determining whether the wiring and simulated actions of each port and point on the labeling machine are correct.

[0023] Several motor / signal output ports 80 are provided, arranged side-by-side from left to right below the system operation buttons.

The signal output ports are connected to the connecting cables 40 via signal connectors 90. The signal output ports include printer signal output ports, switch signal output ports, and sensor signal output ports.

[0028] A cooling fan 109 is provided on the left side wall of the electrical box 30 above the load switch 70. The cooling fan 109 is used to dissipate the heat inside the electrical box 30 to the outside, so as to facilitate the heat dissipation of the electrical box 30.

[0029] A junction box 201 is provided on the left side wall of the electrical box 30 below the load switch 70, and the junction box 201 is connected to the power cord 202.

[0030] The bracket 10 has a miscellaneous tray 11 on its lower side. The upper left and right sides of the miscellaneous tray 11 are respectively provided with a power cord rack 12 and a cable rack 13. The power cord rack 12 is used to wrap and place the power cord 202, and the cable rack 13 is used to wrap and place the connecting cable 40.

[0031] The electrical box 30 is connected to an inspection door 301 on the right side. The inspection door 301 is connected to the electrical box 30 via a door lock. The internal condition of the electrical box 30 can be observed and inspected by opening the inspection door 301.

[0032] The bottom of the support 10 is equipped with casters 14, which enable the simulation test platform to be moved as a whole, so that the user can move the simulation test platform to the desired position.

[0033] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the debugging layout structure of the woodworking machinery labeling machine of the present invention includes a labeling machine 401 and a simulation test platform 402. During debugging, the labeling machine 401 and the simulation test platform 402 only need to be placed together, and then the motor / signal output port 80 of the simulation test platform 402 is connected to the corresponding interface on the labeling machine 401 via a connecting cable 40 for testing. The labeling machine 401 includes an X-axis mechanism 4011, a Y-axis mechanism 4012, a labeling mechanism 4013, and a lifting platform mechanism 4014.

[0034] like Figure 8 As shown, the testing of the woodworking machinery labeling machine simulation test platform includes the following steps: Step 1: Connect both ends of the connecting cable 40 to the motor / signal output port 80 and the corresponding motor / signal interface on the labeling machine, respectively, and then turn on the power of the simulation test platform; Step 2: The labeling machine performs a self-test upon startup.

Step 10: After the labeling test is passed, the lifting platform of the labeling machine is tested. If the lifting platform fails the test, the abnormality is repaired. Step 11: After the lifting platform passes the ascent test, the lifting platform of the labeling machine will be tested for descent. If the lifting platform fails the descent test, abnormal maintenance will be performed. Step 12: After the lifting platform descent test is passed, the labeling machine's lifting platform material arrival test is performed. If the lifting platform material arrival test fails, abnormal repair is performed. Step 13: After the lifting platform plate passes the placement test, perform the plate pulling test of the labeling machine. If the plate pulling test fails, perform abnormal repair.

[0035] In summary, the key design feature of this invention is that it replaces the main unit, discharge device, and control cabinet with a simulation testing platform. This eliminates the need for the main unit, discharge device, and control cabinet during the debugging of the labeling machine in a woodworking machinery cutting production line, reducing space occupation and labor costs while accelerating the debugging cycle. The simulation testing platform allows for the simulation testing and debugging of the labeling machine's motor signals, parameters, and operational functions. During debugging, simply place the labeling machine and the simulation testing platform together, and connect the motor / signal output port of the simulation testing platform to the corresponding interface on the labeling machine via a connecting cable. This allows for the input of various motor positions, printer signals, and switch signals from the labeling machine via the HMI on the simulation testing platform, which in turn transmits the signals to the labeling machine via the motor / signal output port. The simulation test... The test platform outputs commands to the I / O points to test the functions and signals of the labeling machine, thereby determining whether the wiring and simulated actions of each port and point on the labeling machine are correct. During testing, the two ends of the connecting cable are first connected to the motor / signal output port and the corresponding motor / signal interface on the labeling machine, respectively. Then, the power of the simulation test platform is turned on. After the labeling machine performs a self-test, returns to the origin, and switches to automatic mode, the simulation test parameters of the platform are manually adjusted. After switching the platform to automatic mode, the automatic test begins, and then the X-axis test, Y-axis test, labeling test, lifting platform rise test, lifting platform descent test, lifting platform material arrival test, and plate pulling test are performed sequentially. After the test is completed, the code is entered and saved on the simulation test platform, enabling the labeling machine to complete the test smoothly. This method has the advantages of convenient testing and accurate test results.
