Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of children's toy assembly equipment, specifically relating to a small-sized car model assembly equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Current toy car manufacturing processes typically employ a sequential processing model, requiring multiple material transfers and repetitive positioning between different steps such as loading and unloading, component assembly, and stamping. This intermittent production process not only significantly increases production time and costs but also leads to a decrease in product yield due to the accumulation of positioning errors, especially for toy cars shorter than 3 inches. Furthermore, manual material handling poses a risk of component damage, affecting the final product's appearance quality. Therefore, existing step-by-step processing technologies face significant technical bottlenecks in cost control, production efficiency, and product quality stability, urgently requiring breakthroughs through process optimization and equipment improvements.
