DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. Now, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, a preferred embodiment of the present utility model is described in detail.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the utility model provides a specific embodiment of a rotary cutting and shaping system.

[0033] A rotary cutting plastic surgery system, reference Figure 1 The peeling and shaping system includes a loading conveyor belt 1, an operating table 2 and a unloading conveyor belt 3. The operating table 2 is used to process the workpiece to be peeled and shaped. The loading conveyor belt 1 is used to load the workpiece to be peeled and shaped and transport it to the operating table 2. The unloading conveyor belt 3 is used to transport the workpiece after peeling and shaping for unloading. The operating table 2 is sequentially provided with a first shaping unit 21, a peeling unit 22 and a second shaping unit 23.

[0034] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first shaping unit 21 is arranged between the feeding conveyor belt 1 and the peeling unit 22. The first shaping unit 21 includes a first shaping machine 211, a first in-mold conveyor belt 212 and a first manipulator 213. The first manipulator 213 and the first shaping machine 211 are both arranged above the first in-mold conveyor belt 212, and the first manipulator 213 is located above the side of the first in-mold conveyor belt 212 close to the feeding conveyor belt 1, so as to grab the workpiece from the feeding conveyor belt 1 to the first in-mold conveyor belt 212. The first shaping machine 211 is located above the side of the first in-mold conveyor belt 212 close to the peeling unit 22, so as to perform the first shaping on the workpiece.

[0035] Further, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3The peeling unit 22 is arranged between the first shaping unit 21 and the second shaping unit 23. The peeling unit 22 includes a peeling machine 221, a second in-mold conveyor belt 222 and a second manipulator 223. The peeling machine 221 and the second manipulator 223 are both arranged above the second in-mold conveyor belt 222, and the second manipulator 223 is located above the side of the second in-mold conveyor belt 222 close to the first shaping unit 21, so as to grab the workpiece from the first shaping unit 21 to the second in-mold conveyor belt 222. The peeling machine 221 is located on the side of the second in-mold conveyor belt 222 close to the second shaping unit 23, so as to perform edge trimming operations on the workpiece.

[0036] Further, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 The second shaping unit 23 is arranged between the peeling unit 22 and the unloading conveyor belt 3. The second shaping unit 23 includes a second shaping machine 231, a third in-mold conveyor belt 232 and a third manipulator 233. The third manipulator 233 and the second shaping machine 231 are both arranged above the third in-mold conveyor belt 232, and the third manipulator 233 is located above the side of the third in-mold conveyor belt 232 close to the peeling unit 22, so as to grab the workpiece from the peeling unit 22 to the third in-mold conveyor belt 232, and the second shaping machine 231 is located above the side of the third in-mold conveyor belt 232 close to the unloading conveyor belt 3, so as to perform a second shaping on the workpiece.

[0037] Existing processing systems only use robots to complete the transfer of workpieces between various workstations, that is, the robot first grabs the workpiece to the operating area of ​​the first workstation for primary processing. After the primary processing is completed, the robot grabs the workpiece from the operating area of ​​the first workstation to the operating area of ​​the next workstation for secondary processing, and so on. During the transportation process, the robot needs to wait for the completion of processing at the current workstation before it can grab the workpiece to the next workstation, and can grab the next workpiece to the current workstation only after the current workpiece is grabbed to the next workstation. This waiting process will reduce the overall processing efficiency; and when the robot grabs the workpiece to each workstation, it needs to position the workpiece for processing, and the processing positioning process will further reduce the overall processing efficiency.

[0038] In this embodiment, by respectively arranging a conveyor belt and a robot on the first shaping unit, the peeling unit and the second shaping unit, the robot does not need to grab the workpiece to the workstation, but only needs to grab the workpiece to the conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt transports the workpiece to the operating area of ​​the workstation. On the one hand, when the workpiece is processed at each processing station, it will not affect the loading of the next workpiece, which can effectively save transportation time and thus improve the overall processing efficiency; on the other hand, after the workpiece is loaded, it only needs to be transported to a specific position by the conveyor belt, and there is no need for the robot to perform processing positioning, which can effectively reduce the time occupied by the robot for processing positioning and further improve the overall processing efficiency.

[0039] In one embodiment, reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 The operating table 2 also includes a polishing unit 24, which includes a polishing machine 241 and a fourth manipulator 242. The fourth manipulator 242 is used to grab the workpiece from the third in-mold conveyor belt 232 to the polishing machine 241, and to grab the workpiece from the polishing machine 241 to the unloading conveyor belt 3.

[0040] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The fourth manipulator 242 is arranged above the polishing machine 241 to grab the workpiece after secondary shaping on the second shaping unit 23 to the polishing machine 241. Since burrs are easily generated on the edge of the workpiece after the rotary cutting process, which will affect the appearance, quality and safety of the product, the polishing machine 241 can effectively remove the burrs on the edge of the workpiece. After the polishing machine 241 polishes the edge of the workpiece, the fourth manipulator 242 grabs the workpiece and places it on the unloading conveyor belt 3.

[0041] In one embodiment, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 A plurality of first positioning members 2121 are arranged on the first in-mold conveyor belt 212 .
