AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, the replacement and maintenance process of the cutter ring of the ring planer is cumbersome, requires machine downtime for maintenance, and the equipment has poor adaptability, making it impossible to quickly and accurately replace and install the cutter pack.
The automated tool pack replacement method using industrial robots is divided into three independent zones: the first zone removes and installs the tool pack from the tool ring, the second zone disassembles and cleans the tool pack, and the third zone grinds the tool pack. High-precision tool pack replacement and installation are achieved by using mechanical means and automated systems.
This enables quick and accurate tool kit replacement during equipment operation, reducing downtime, improving equipment adaptability and maintenance efficiency, and lowering maintenance costs.
