[0029] Furthermore, the material retrieving mechanism 20 includes a first four-axis manipulator 21 and a first positioning camera 22.

Specifically, the first four-axis manipulator 21 is connected to a gripping component such as a vacuum suction cup to grasp and move the material 13, improving production convenience. The first positioning camera 22 is provided to take a picture to locate the position of the material 13 for the first four-axis manipulator 21 to grasp, thereby improving grasping efficiency.
[0030] Furthermore, the first gripping component 14 and the second gripping component 15 are both vacuum suction cups. Specifically, using vacuum suction cups as the first gripping component 14 and the second gripping component 15 effectively improves gripping accuracy and efficiency. In some embodiments, the first gripping component 14 and the second gripping component 15 can also be other gripping elements.
[0031] Furthermore, the flipping mechanism 30 includes a flipping bracket 31, a flipping cylinder 32, a flipping head 33, a flipping bar 34 and a plurality of flipping claws 35; the flipping bracket 31 is arranged between the material picking mechanism 20 and the loading mechanism 40; the flipping cylinder 32 is fixed to one side of the flipping bracket 31; the flipping head 33 is connected to the flipping cylinder 32; the flipping bar 34 is connected to one side of the flipping head 33; the plurality of flipping claws 35 are equidistantly fixed to one side of the flipping bar 34; the outer surface of the flipping head 33 is provided with two limit blocks 36, and buffers 37 are respectively provided on both sides of the two limit blocks 36, and the buffers 37 are fixed to the flipping bracket 31.

[0034] Furthermore, the air cleaning assembly 60 includes several air pipes 61 and a cleaning lift assembly 80; the air pipes 61 are connected to both sides of the return track 52; and the cleaning lift assembly 80 is located in the center of the return track 52. Specifically, when the empty product jig 16 returns to the return track 52, the cleaning lift assembly 80 lifts the product jig 16 and performs air cleaning through the air pipes 61, preventing the empty product jig 16 from interfering with detection and reducing debris, thereby improving detection accuracy.
