Description

[0002] In laser cutting technology, to ensure cutting quality and efficiency, a constant cutting height needs to be maintained between the cutting head and the workpiece surface. This usually relies on a capacitive sensor mounted on the cutting head for distance measurement and real-time feedback.

[0003] However, the measurement principle of a capacitive sensor is based on the virtual capacitance formed between the sensor probe and the conductive plate below. Inside the plate, the electric field is uniformly distributed, making the distance measurement by the capacitive sensor accurate and reliable. However, when the capacitive sensor moves with the cutting head to the edge of the plate, the inherent electric field edge effect can cause significant deviations in the measurement value, making the cutting head prone to collision with the plate and resulting in damage to the cutting head.

[0008] Optionally, adjusting the weight of the second current actual distance H2 or the third current actual distance H3 based on whether the difference ΔH exceeds the error threshold includes the following steps: If the difference ΔH does not exceed the error threshold, then the weight of the second current actual distance H2 is made greater than the weight of the third current actual distance H3; If the difference ΔH exceeds the error threshold, then the weight of the second current actual distance H2 is made less than or equal to the weight of the third current actual distance H3.

[0028] Please see Fig. 1The cutting height adjustment method provided in this application embodiment will now be described. This cutting height adjustment method is applied to a laser cutting equipment for dynamic adjustment of the Z-axis height (i.e., the thickness direction of the plate) of the cutting head during plate cutting. The cutting head is equipped with a capacitive sensor and a photoelectric displacement sensor: the capacitive sensor is fixed to the nozzle of the cutting head, and the photoelectric displacement sensor is fixed to the cutting head and located on one side of the photoelectric displacement sensor. Both sensors have their measuring ends facing the surface of the plate to be cut, and both can independently detect the distance between the cutting head and the surface of the plate closest to the cutting head. The detection signal is transmitted to the cutting equipment control unit, which then executes the following steps: S1. Obtain the cutting head movement path: Before cutting, the control unit reads the pre-imported cutting program, extracts the preset movement path of the cutting head, and stores the coordinates of all processing points and the outline coordinates of the sheet material.

[0029] S2. Based on the movement path of the cutting head, determine whether the cutting head is currently located in the inner region or the edge region of the plate.

[0030] During processing, the control unit obtains the current coordinates of the cutting head in real time and compares them with the pre-stored coordinates of the board outline: if the projection range of the cutting head falls completely inside the board outline, it is determined that the cutting head is currently located in the inner area of ​​the board; if the projection part of the cutting head exceeds the board outline or is within the board boundary range, it is determined that the cutting head is currently located in the edge area of ​​the board.

[0031] S3. If the cutting head is currently located in the inner region of the plate, the first current actual distance H1 measured by the capacitive sensor is obtained, and the cutting head is adjusted to the target height according to the first current actual distance H1.

[0032] If the cutting head is located inside the material, the control unit directly acquires the first actual distance H1 measured by the capacitive sensor, calculates the difference between H1 and the preset target height, generates a Z-axis adjustment command, and controls the cutting head to move to the target height. Since there is no external electric field leakage interference inside the material, the capacitive sensor's detection is stable. Directly using its detection results reduces the computational load and ensures fast height adjustment response.

[0033] S4. If the cutting head is currently located in the edge area of ​​the plate, the second current actual distance H2 measured by the capacitive sensor and the third current actual distance H3 measured by the photoelectric displacement sensor are obtained. The second current actual distance H2 and the third current actual distance H3 are weighted and averaged to obtain the fourth current actual distance H4. The cutting head is then adjusted to the target height according to the fourth current actual distance H4.

[0034] If the cutting head is located at the edge of the material, the control unit simultaneously acquires the second current actual distance H2 output by the capacitive sensor and the third current actual distance H3 output by the photoelectric displacement sensor, and calculates the fused fourth current actual distance H4 according to a preset weighted formula. The calculation formula is as follows: H4 = α × H2 + β × H3 Where α is the weighting coefficient of the capacitive sensor and β is the weighting coefficient of the photoelectric displacement sensor, satisfying α+β=1.

[0035] In this embodiment, the sheet material to be processed is typically a metal sheet. The photoelectric displacement sensor can specifically be a laser displacement sensor, a fiber optic displacement sensor, or a spectral confocal displacement sensor. This solution selects a capacitive sensor as the main sensor and a photoelectric displacement sensor as an auxiliary sensor. The core reason for choosing a capacitive sensor as the main sensor and a photoelectric displacement sensor as an auxiliary sensor lies in the multiple advantages of capacitive sensors in adapting to cutting scenarios: they have a fast response speed, reaching kHz-level response frequencies, making them suitable for high-speed cutting conditions. They also possess moderate cost, strong resistance to cutting fumes / arc light interference, and small size for easy integration. In contrast, photoelectric displacement sensors are not only more expensive than capacitive sensors, but the spatter, fumes, and molten mist generated during the cutting process can also interfere with their measurement stability and accuracy. Therefore, they are only configured as auxiliary sensors.

[0036] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: Balancing adjustment efficiency and accuracy: By adopting differentiated ranging strategies in different regions, the internal region directly uses capacitive sensors for ranging, eliminating the need for complex fusion calculations. This reduces the computational load on the control system while ensuring detection accuracy, improves the height adjustment response speed, and adapts to the processing needs of rapid cutting over a wide range.

[0037] It solves the industry pain point of inaccurate distance measurement in edge areas: It adopts dual-sensor weighted fusion distance measurement for the edge area of ​​the board, which solves the problem of excessive distance measurement error caused by electric field leakage distortion of pure capacitive sensors at the edge position. It significantly improves the accuracy of height adjustment in the edge area, effectively improves the edge cutting quality, and reduces the processing scrap rate.

[0038] High adaptability and low modification cost: This invention is based on the existing cutting head architecture with dual sensors. It does not require major hardware modifications. Performance can be improved simply by optimizing the control logic, resulting in low modification cost.

[0039] In this embodiment of the application, S4, if the cutting head is currently located in the edge region of the plate, then the second current actual distance H2 measured by the capacitive sensor and the third current actual distance H3 measured by the photoelectric displacement sensor are obtained. The second current actual distance H2 and the third current actual distance H3 are weighted and averaged to obtain the fourth current actual distance H4. The cutting head is then adjusted to the target height according to the fourth current actual distance H4, including the following steps: S41. Calculate the difference △H between the second current actual distance H2 and the third current actual distance H3.

[0040] The second current actual distance H2 measured by the capacitive sensor and the third current actual distance H3 measured by the photoelectric displacement sensor are acquired simultaneously. The absolute value of the difference between the two measurements, ΔH = |H2 - H3|, is calculated.

[0041] S42. Determine whether the difference △H exceeds the error threshold.

[0042] The calculated ΔH is compared with the pre-calibrated error threshold to determine whether ΔH exceeds the error threshold; the error threshold can be manually set according to processing requirements.

[0043] S43. Adjust the weight of the second current actual distance H2 or the third current actual distance H3 according to whether the difference △H exceeds the error threshold.

[0044] In some embodiments, if ΔH does not exceed the error threshold, it indicates that the measurement results of both sensors are reliable and can be calculated with the same weight. If ΔH exceeds the error threshold, it indicates that the measurement of the capacitance sensor is inaccurate. In this embodiment, the weight of the capacitance sensor measurement value is further reduced, and the weight of the photoelectric displacement sensor measurement value is increased.

[0045] S44. The fourth current actual distance H4 is calculated based on the adjusted weighted average. S45. Adjust the cutting head to the target height according to the fourth current actual distance H4.

[0046] The difference between the calculated fourth current actual distance H4 and the preset cutting target height is used to drive the lifting and adjusting mechanism of the cutting head to adjust the cutting head to the target height, thus completing this height following adjustment.

[0047] This application embodiment automatically identifies abnormal measurement data by judging the difference between the second current actual distance H2 and the third current actual distance H3, and dynamically adjusts the weight ratio of different sensors, which has a much better anti-interference capability than the single sensor solution.

[0048] In this embodiment of the application, S43, adjusting the weight of the second current actual distance H2 or the third current actual distance H3 based on whether the difference △H exceeds the error threshold, includes the following steps: S431. If the difference ΔH does not exceed the error threshold, then the weight of the second current actual distance H2 is made greater than the weight of the third current actual distance H3.

[0049] This leverages the core advantages of capacitive sensors: fast response, resistance to smoke and dust interference, and low cost. Using capacitive sensors as the primary data source ensures high-speed response for height adjustment, adapting to high-speed cutting conditions while reducing the computational load on the control unit.

[0050] While ensuring measurement accuracy, we maximize the use of cost-effective capacitive sensing data and reduce the weight of photoelectric displacement sensor data that is susceptible to interference, thereby achieving the optimal balance between performance and economy.

[0051] S432. If the difference ΔH exceeds the error threshold, then the weight of the second current actual distance H2 is made less than or equal to the weight of the third current actual distance H3.

[0052] This solution completely resolves the ranging failure issue caused by electric field distortion at the edge of the sheet material by capacitive sensors. By reducing the weight of the capacitive sensor, the error source is isolated, preventing erroneous data from dominating the adjustment, thus fundamentally improving the edge cutting quality.

[0053] In this embodiment, the internal region is a region located at a distance greater than or equal to R from the edge of the plate, where R is the radius of the side of the cutting head closest to the plate.

[0054] The complete outline edge coordinates of the material to be processed can be obtained through visual scanning or system import. Then, the structural parameters of the cutting head used for processing are read to determine the radius of the cutting head on the side of the material closest to the material, which is denoted as the threshold R.

[0055] The area at a distance greater than or equal to R from the edge of the board is designated as the inner area; the area at a distance less than R is designated as the edge area.

[0056] Furthermore, the internal region is the area located at a distance greater than or equal to 1.2R from the edge of the board.

[0057] The internal area can be set to be greater than or equal to 1.2R from the edge of the board, which can identify edge risks earlier and avoid measurement deviations caused by the capacitive sensor when it is close to the edge.

[0058] It should be understood that the sequence number of each step in the above embodiments does not imply the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of this application.
