And controller can control get part robot 1 and send assembly to slag bag machine 4, air cooling machine 3 and saw cutting machine 5 respectively. Wherein, in this embodiment, the preset shape of insert is arc curved surface, and in other alternative embodiments, it can also be other shapes that need further processing. The utility model introduces insert, uses insert to cooperate with die casting step, can directly realize the forming curved surface pre-die casting of die casting, can avoid the introduction of machining center equipment, reduces production cost, and also can speed up production cycle.
[0030] In addition, the die casting island production line further comprises an insert cooling table 7, and the insert cooling table 7 is located within the working range of the get part robot 1, and the insert cooling table 7 is used for cooling the insert separated from the product for the next cycle. The die casting island production line further comprises a transfer robot 8 in communication with the controller, and the working range of the transfer robot 8 covers the insert cooling table 7, so as to be able to grasp the insert separated from the assembly and send it to the insert cooling table 7. Through the above setting, the single insert is recycled and applied to the process, the overall cycle operation of the process pipeline is realized, thereby improving the production efficiency and reducing the production cost.
[0031] Specifically, the die casting island production line further comprises an oil press 6 in communication with the controller. The product is processed by the saw cutting machine 5 and is grasped by the transfer robot 8 and sent to the oil press 6, and the oil press 6 can separate the assembly into the product with the arc curved surface and the insert, and then the transfer robot 8 can simultaneously or separately grasp the separated product and insert, and send the product to the next process and send the insert to the insert cooling table 7. By setting the transfer robot 8, the separated product and insert can be automatically sent to the next process in time, thereby shortening the turnover time and improving the work efficiency.
[0032] The die casting island production line further comprises a spraying robot 90, a deburring robot 91 and a conveying line 92 in communication with the controller.
