[0022] When a code mark is required on a sheet, a movable six-axis robot can absorb the sheet using multiple suction cups and move itself to press the sheet down onto the tabletop. These suction cups press the sheet down onto the tabletop, allowing the sheet, such as a thin metal sheet, to be flatly pressed against the tabletop, maintaining a nearly deformed, stretched state. The tabletop is provided with a code hole. A laser engraving machine is positioned beneath the table and is configured to emit a laser to engrave the code hole. The engraving opening is opposite one end of the engraving hole and is smaller than the diameter of the hole. The laser engraving machine can then emit a laser beam from the opening, which can pass through the hole to engrave the relatively stretched sheet and complete the marking. The laser engraving machine and table occupy a small space and do not impose significant restrictions on the sheet material. They can be used to inspect sheets of varying thicknesses and can also achieve normal and stable coding of thinner metal sheets. After the engraving is completed, the plate can finally be tested for performance using a detection device integrated with a barcode scanner. The barcode scanner can recognize the engraved codes normally on the metal sheet. Combined with the detection function of the detection equipment, it can realize batch detection of metal sheets, improve the versatility of detection of plates of different densities, and to a certain extent solve the technical problem of insufficient versatility when testing plates in batches.

[0032] In related technologies, when testing thin metal sheets, due to their small thickness, the thin metal sheets are prone to deformation during the transfer and engraving process, affecting the shape of the engraved code, making it difficult to identify the sample identification and conduct subsequent testing normally. This makes it difficult to apply to easily deformed or thin metal sheets, resulting in a technical problem of insufficient versatility. The present application provides a plate performance testing system that can at least address the aforementioned technical issues to a certain extent.
[0033] The present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0034] Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of a plate material performance detection system in some embodiments or certain embodiments of the present application is shown. Figure 2 A partial structural diagram of a plate performance detection system in some embodiments or certain embodiments of the present application is shown, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiment of the present application provides a plate performance detection system, which is used to detect the performance of the plate, including:
[0035] The movable six-axis robot 1 is provided with a plurality of suction cups 11 for adsorbing the plate 10 .
[0036] The code engraving table 2 is spaced apart from the six-axis robot 1 and is provided with a table top 21 and a code engraving hole 22 passing through the table top 21 .
[0037] The laser marking machine 3 is placed under the marking table 2 and is provided with a marking port 31 for emitting laser light. The marking port 31 is opposite to one end of the marking hole 22 and has a width smaller than the diameter of the marking hole 22 .
[0038] The detection device 4 is separated from the coding table 2 and is used to detect the performance of the plate 10. It is provided with a placement table for placing the plate 10. The detection device 4 is integrated with a barcode scanner (not shown in the figure) for scanning codes.
[0039] When a code mark needs to be set on the plate 10, the movable six-axis robot 1 can absorb the plate 10 through multiple suction cups 11 and move itself to press the plate 10 down to the table top 21 of the coding table 2. The multiple suction cups 11 press the plate 10 down to the table top 21 of the coding table 2, which can make the plate 10, such as a thin metal plate with a smaller thickness, be pressed flatly on the table top 21, so that the metal plate is in a stretched state with almost no deformation. A code hole 22 is provided on the table top 21. A laser code engraving machine 3 is placed under the coding table 2 and is provided for emitting a laser code hole 22. The code opening 31 is opposite to one end of the code hole 22 and its width is smaller than the aperture of the code hole 22. The laser code engraving machine 3 can then emit a laser beam from the code opening 31. The laser beam can pass through the code hole 22 to engrave the relatively stretched plate 10 to complete the marking. The laser code engraving machine 3 and the code engraving table 2 occupy a small space and do not significantly restrict the plate 10. They can be used to inspect plates 10 of varying thicknesses and can also achieve normal and stable coding of thin metal sheets. After the engraving, the plate 10 can be finally tested for performance using a testing device 4 integrated with a code scanner. The code scanner can recognize the codes properly engraved on the metal sheet. In conjunction with the detection function of the testing device 4, batch testing of metal sheets can be achieved, improving the versatility of testing plates 10 of varying thicknesses, and to some extent resolving the technical problem of insufficient versatility when testing batches of plates 10.
[0040] Moreover, the plate performance detection system can be applied to metal sheets of different thicknesses, has a simple structure, and the laser engraving machine 3 is arranged under the engraving table 2. The space occupied by the plate performance detection system is also small, and it can be applied to factories or production lines with smaller spaces, etc., which is also conducive to improving the versatility of the plate performance detection system.
[0041] In some or certain embodiments, the marking mark engraved by the laser engraving machine 3 on the plate 10 may be a two-dimensional code, and a barcode scanner may be used to scan the corresponding two-dimensional code.
[0042] In some or certain embodiments, the maximum height of the six-axis robot 1 may be higher than the coding table 2 to facilitate the transfer and placement of the plate 10.
[0043] In some or certain embodiments, a plurality of suction cups 11 are arranged in an array on the sixth axis 12 of the six-axis robot 1 , and the suction ports of the plurality of suction cups 11 are all located on the same plane.
[0044] Multiple suction cups 11 are arranged in an array on the sixth axis 12 of the six-axis manipulator 1, so that the six-axis manipulator 1 can achieve stable movement of the plate 10 after adsorbing the plate 10 through the suction cups 11. The adsorption ports of multiple suction cups 11 are all located in the same plane, which facilitates the stable adsorption of the plate 10, is beneficial for making the plate 10 in a more stretched state, improves the quality of the code engraved on the plate 10, facilitates the recognition of the engraved code, and ensures the normal progress of subsequent detection.
[0045] In some or certain embodiments, the plurality of suction cups 11 may be rigidly connected to the sixth axis 12 of the six-axis manipulator 1 via a bracket.
[0046] In some or certain embodiments, the six-axis robot 1 may be an ABB IRB4600 six-axis robot 1, which is easy to implement and has a better effect of adsorbing and transferring the plate 10.
[0047] In some or certain embodiments, the spacing between two adjacent suction cups 11 is 200-250 mm, and the diameter of the suction cup 11 is 30-40 mm. When the spacing between two adjacent suction cups 11 is within the above range, and the diameter of the suction cup 11 is within the above range, the adsorption and transfer effect on the easily deformed sheet 10 is better, which is beneficial to improve the coding accuracy to ensure the stability of subsequent processes. When the spacing between the suction cups 11 is within the above range, and the diameter of the suction cup 11 is within the above range, it is better for adsorbing galvanized sheets or tin sheets with length and width dimensions of 200 mm to 210 mm.
[0048] In some or certain embodiments, the table top 21 has two parallel surfaces 211, with both ends of the code hole 22 connected to the two surfaces 211, and the cross-sectional area of the code hole 22 is 14% to 15% of the area of the surface 211. The table top 21 has sufficient area to support the board 10 and is suitable for supporting boards 10 of different areas.
[0049] In some or certain embodiments, the tabletop 21 of the marking table 2 may be rectangular, and the marking table 2 may further include legs 23 connected to the four corners of the tabletop 21 for supporting the tabletop 21. This facilitates manufacturing and is suitable for production lines. The shape of the tabletop 21 may also be circular or other shapes as required, and the legs 23 may also be connected to the tabletop 21 at intervals along its circumference.
[0050] In some or certain embodiments, the plate material performance detection system further includes:
[0051] The punching machine 5 is separated from the laser marking machine 3 and the six-axis robot 1.
[0052] The plate performance detection system also includes a punch press 5, which can cooperate with the six-axis robot 1 and the coding table 2. The six-axis robot 1 can adsorb the plate 10. After transferring the plate 10 to the table 21 of the coding table 2, the laser coding machine 3 can laser engrave the plate 10. The six-axis robot 1 moves the plate 10 so that the laser coding machine 3 performs laser coding at different positions of the plate 10. The plate 10 after laser coding can be transferred to the punch press 5 via the six-axis robot 1. The punch press 5 punches several coding corresponding areas of the plate 10 to obtain detection samples 101 of different shapes. It can process detection samples 101 of different shapes and corresponding to different coding on the plate 10 to realize the detection of different performances of the same plate 10, which is beneficial to improving the detection efficiency of the plate 10.
[0053] In some or certain embodiments, the sheet material properties testing system includes at least two punching machines 5, and the marking table 2 and the two punching machines 5 are arranged circumferentially and spaced apart around the six-axis robot 1. This facilitates the six-axis robot 1 to transfer the sheet material 10 between the punching machines 5 and the marking table 2, thereby improving the efficiency of sheet material properties testing.
[0054] In some or certain embodiments, the plate material performance detection system further includes:
[0055] The safety fence 6 encloses a safety area 61, and at least two punching machines 5, a six-axis manipulator 1 and a coding table 2 are located in the safety area 61. This can improve the safety of the sheet material 10 during coding and punching 5 processing.
[0056] It should be noted that the safety guardrail 6 is usually provided with an exit.
[0057] In some or certain embodiments, the plate performance detection system includes multiple spaced apart detection devices 4. Providing multiple detection devices 4 can improve the fault tolerance of the plate performance detection system and also improve the detection efficiency of the plates 10 that need to be tested in batches.
[0058] In some or certain embodiments, among the multiple testing devices 4 , at least three testing devices 4 are respectively a tensile tester, a roughness tester, and a hardness tester.
[0059] At least three of the multiple testing devices 4, including a tensile tester, a roughness tester, and a hardness tester, can test at least three properties of the sheet material 10, thereby obtaining more accurate sheet material performance data. Furthermore, when a punch press 5 is provided, the six-axis manipulator 1 moves the sheet material 10 and cooperates with the laser code engraver 3 to create multiple QR codes on the same sheet material 10. The punch press 5 can then punch out or cut the portion of the sheet material 10 corresponding to each QR code, forming test samples 101 of different shapes and bearing different QR codes, effectively testing multiple properties of the same sheet material 10. This results in low consumption and high testing efficiency.
[0060] For ease of understanding, here is provided Figure 3 , Figure 3 It shows a schematic structural diagram of a plate in some embodiments or certain embodiments of the present application, Figure 3 1 shows a plate 10 and test samples 101 of different shapes that can be punched out of the same plate 10 , each test sample 101 having a QR code area 102 at a different position.
[0061] In some or certain embodiments, the tensile testing machine can be a ZWICK linear trolley tensile testing machine, which can be integrated with a barcode scanner and actuating gripper system. The roughness tester can utilize linear guides and actuating grippers to transport and scan the corresponding test sample 101. The hardness tester utilizes a domestic collaborative robot for barcode scanning and testing.
[0062] In some or certain embodiments, the plate material performance detection system further includes a controller (not shown in the figure) electrically connected to the detection device 4 and the barcode scanner.
[0063] A controller electrically connected to the detection device 4 and the barcode scanner is provided to facilitate control of the use status of the detection device 4 and the barcode scanner. Some controllers can also collect data from the detection device 4 and the barcode scanner to improve the degree of automation of the plate performance detection system.
