[0052] In specific work, the lifting and horizontal movement of the variable distance suction disc transplanting device are realized by the gantry truss control system, and when starting work, the gantry truss drives the variable distance suction disc transplanting device to move above the cylinder line, when the material is fed, the gantry truss moves the variable distance suction disc transplanting device to the steel plate, and the variable distance suction disc transplanting adjusts the distance between the suction discs through the steel plate size.

[0053] The adjusting distance process is as follows: the servo motor installed on the transverse moving device drives the gear through the reducer to amplify the torque, engages with the rack on the bearing frame, and moves the transverse moving device through the guide rail and the sliding block. The servo motor installed on the connecting plate drives the gear through the reducer to amplify the torque, engages with the rack on the bearing frame, and moves the transverse moving device through the guide rail and the sliding block, further realizing the longitudinal distance adjustment of the suction cup. The cylinder cylinder fixed on the connecting plate can realize the transverse distance adjustment of two positions through the extension and retraction of two positions, and cooperate with the sliding block and the guide rail.

[0054] After the distance adjustment is completed, the gantry truss control distance adjustment suction cup transplanting device moves downward, the distance adjustment suction cup transplanting device adsorbs the steel plate, and the gantry truss moves to the specified position.
