[0034] As can be seen from the above, after the device is connected to the PLC controller, the staff controls the operation of the device through the PLC controller, places the forklift gantry at the starting end of the power roller 5, and then starts the driving mechanism 2 to drive the movement of the gantry. When the gantry moves to the position of the shaping mechanism 3, it is detected by the laser detection fixture 6 to check whether the gantry width deviation value is within the set allowable range, automatically determine the shaping amount and shaping direction, and then perform shaping through the shaping mechanism 3 to complete the shaping work of the forklift gantry, and then continue to drive the gantry to move and move the gantry out of the device.
[0035] Specifically, the driving mechanism 2 includes a conveying motor 201, a sprocket conveyor line body 202 and a servo module 203. The conveying motor 201 is fixedly installed on the bottom layer of the bracket near one side by bolts, and the servo module 203 is fixedly installed on the top layer of the bracket near the middle by bolts. One end of the sprocket conveyor line body 202 is connected to the conveying motor 201, and the other end of the sprocket conveyor line body 202 is connected to the power roller 5 located at one end. The servo module 203 is connected to one end of the conveying motor 201.
[0036] As can be seen from the above, the conveying motor 201 is started, and the power roller 5 is driven to rotate through the sprocket transmission line body 202, thereby driving the movement of the forklift gantry.

After the servo module 203 acts on the conveying motor 201, it is convenient to adjust the movement direction and speed of the gantry.
