Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a grinding device and a grinding method thereof, and more particularly to a grinding device and a grinding method with a double turntable and three stations, belonging to the technical field of grinding aluminum alloy structural parts. Background Technology

[0002] Grinding equipment, as a basic processing tool, is widely used in the surface treatment of metal components and high-end equipment parts. It mainly removes defects on the material surface through robotic grinding spindle tools to achieve grinding, polishing and surface finishing.

[0003] The existing grinding devices need further improvement in terms of operating efficiency and convenience. For example, when switching grinding modes, external tools or cumbersome mechanical disassembly and assembly are often required, which greatly reduces the efficiency of operation.

[0004] To address the aforementioned technological bottlenecks, the industry is evolving towards self-adaptation, intelligence, and high efficiency and environmental friendliness. Floating grinding mechanisms with real-time force feedback control, intelligent control systems integrating high-precision sensors, and efficient dust collection devices are becoming core features of the next generation of grinding equipment. The integration of these technologies aims to solve the shortcomings of existing grinding devices in terms of ease of quick replacement and grinding efficiency, thereby improving grinding consistency, safety, and production efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems in the prior art, the purpose of this invention is to provide a grinding device and method with a dual rotary table and three workstations. The device adopts an independent layout of three workstations, which respectively complete the feeding, grinding, and unloading processes. Each workstation operates synchronously and in parallel, significantly improving the processing cycle and production efficiency. Furthermore, the feeding and unloading workstations are safely separated from the grinding workstations, ensuring operational safety and reducing dust interference.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution: A grinding device with two conversion tables and three workstations includes a left grinding machine and a right grinding machine. Both the left and right grinding machines are equipped with conversion tables, which are driven by a conversion table drive mechanism. Each conversion table is equipped with a loading station, a grinding station, and a unloading station. Each loading station, grinding station, and unloading station is equipped with a fixture. The fixture includes a main base plate installed on the conversion table. The main base plate is equipped with several sets of clamping cylinder assemblies, and a positioning pin is provided below the clamping cylinder assembly.

[0007] The tooling is equipped with an electrical module and a pneumatic module, and the pneumatic module controls the clamping cylinder assembly.

[0008] The clamping cylinder assembly consists of two sets, located on both sides of the main base plate, and each set of clamping cylinder assembly has three clamping cylinders arranged in a triangular position.

[0009] The main base plate is equipped with a zero-point positioning device.

[0010] The converter stage is equipped with a grating.

[0011] Both the left and right grinding machines are equipped with robot mounting bases, on which grinding robots are mounted. The grinding robots have flexible deburring tools.

[0012] The workstation is equipped with a soft curtain, and a waste cart is located below the workstation.

[0013] Both the left and right grinding machines are equipped with operation button boxes, control cabinet displays, and indicator lights.

[0014] A grinding method for a dual-conversion-table, three-station grinding device is implemented on the grinding device.

[0015] The grinding method of the dual-conversion-table three-station grinding device includes the following steps: (1) Place the product on the tooling of the loading station of the left and right grinding machines, and place two products on the left and right sides at the same time. (2) After placing the product, press the start button of the left grinding machine and the right grinding machine respectively to put the left grinding machine and the right grinding machine into the ready-to-run state. (3) Remove the finished product from the tooling and then press the finish button on the left and right grinding machines; (4) After all the buttons in step (3) are pressed, the operator is located outside the grating, the conversion table rotates, the loading station moves into the interior, the grinding robot starts grinding, and after the grinding robot finishes, the grinding station moves to the unloading station, and the unloading station moves to the loading station. (5) Repeat steps (1)-(4) above.

[0016] The grinding device and grinding method of the present invention with dual conversion table and three workstations have the following beneficial effects: 1. This invention adopts a three-station independent layout, which completes the loading, grinding and unloading processes separately. Each station operates synchronously and in parallel without waiting, which greatly improves the processing cycle and production efficiency. The loading and unloading stations and the grinding station are safely separated, which not only ensures operational safety and reduces dust interference, but also enables loading and unloading outside the machine and grinding inside the machine to be carried out simultaneously, effectively shortening auxiliary time, improving equipment utilization, and making the overall operation smooth and highly automated, suitable for continuous and stable batch production.

[0017] 2. The tooling in this invention employs a zero-point positioning device to achieve rapid, high-precision, and high-rigidity positioning and locking between the tooling and the equipment worktable. Through a standardized positioning interface, the tooling can be repeatedly changed after a reference is set once. It features high repeatability, fast clamping speed, and good rigidity, reducing debugging time, improving processing consistency, and adapting to multi-variety and flexible production.

[0018] 3. This invention has a high degree of integration, a compact and simple structure, and occupies little space, reducing external piping and wiring, making on-site installation and layout simpler; at the same time, the high degree of component integration and fewer connection links effectively reduce the failure rate, improve operational stability, increase assembly and debugging efficiency, and make subsequent maintenance more convenient, significantly improving overall operating efficiency and reliability.
