Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of laser cutting technology, specifically to a laser cutting device based on an intelligent manufacturing platform. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of laser processing, although traditional gantry and cantilever laser cutting machines are widely used, their linear motion mode has inherent defects when dealing with large ring, fan-shaped or circumferentially distributed workpieces. The huge linear stroke required by the equipment to cover the rectangular working area has extremely low utilization when actually processing circular contours, resulting in large footprint, high cost and insufficient efficiency. For complex workpieces with inclined surfaces or three-dimensional curved surfaces, expensive multi-axis linkage special machine tools are usually required. These types of equipment not only have limited processing range, but also make it difficult to achieve synchronous and efficient processing of symmetrical parts.
[0003] In addition, the existing equipment generally has a low level of intelligence and lacks the ability to be deeply integrated with the upper-level manufacturing platform. Its process monitoring, adaptive process adjustment and predictive maintenance functions are weak. In terms of safety, it relies more on electrical systems and external protection and lacks an active mechanical safety redundancy mechanism integrated into the equipment. Therefore, the market needs a new type of laser processing equipment that can efficiently cover circular areas, has multi-dimensional processing flexibility, and can be deeply integrated with intelligent manufacturing systems.

[0014] (III) Beneficial Effects This invention provides a laser cutting device based on an intelligent manufacturing platform. It has the following beneficial effects: This laser cutting device based on an intelligent manufacturing platform is equipped with a laser head pitch drive assembly and a locking assembly. The laser head pitch drive assembly, through a compact gear transmission structure, gives the laser cutting head independent pitch and oscillation capabilities, enabling real-time normal tracking of the beam onto a three-dimensional curved surface.

[0015] The locking assembly adopts a purely mechanical design with spring self-locking and electronic disengagement, which provides a fail-safe, absolutely rigid locking mechanism.

[0016] When the locking assembly is released, the pitch drive assembly can work with full degrees of freedom, and the equipment can perform high-speed dynamic surface cutting like a five-axis robot. When the locking assembly is activated and the cantilever is rigidly locked, the pitch drive assembly can be precisely adjusted within the range, turning the equipment into a rigid fixed-axis precision machine tool. This allows the same equipment to unprecedentedly combine the range of a large five-axis machining center with the static accuracy of a small precision machine tool. Attached Figure Description
