Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold design and manufacturing technology, and in particular to a production simulation and debugging platform for automotive stamping mold robotic arms. Background Technology
[0002] In the automotive manufacturing industry, the development and debugging of stamping dies are key links in the production of body parts. However, the industry currently adopts the "full-process integrated debugging" model, which means that all process dies must be installed on the formal press before the overall mold trial verification can be carried out. This model not only seriously occupies valuable production equipment resources, but also often forces the debugging cycle to be postponed due to heavy production tasks. Moreover, once a problem occurs in a certain process, the entire debugging process must be interrupted, resulting in a huge waste of time and manpower resources, as well as prolonging the debugging cycle and increasing development costs.
[0003] In existing technologies, the verification of robotic arm feeding systems requires all process molds to be completed before overall testing can be conducted. Furthermore, the robotic arm's motion trajectory and positioning accuracy can only be verified after final assembly. This post-installation verification method cannot provide timely feedback on problems. If a problem arises in the coordination between the robotic arm and the mold in a particular process, not only does the mold for that process need adjustment, but it may also affect the coordination of other processes, creating a chain reaction and further increasing development costs. Moreover, directly debugging new molds on the production line press carries the risk of equipment damage and safety accidents. These issues collectively restrict the improvement of mold development efficiency and quality control levels.
[0004] Therefore, the existing "integrated debugging of the whole process" method can hardly meet the needs of modern manufacturing, and there is an urgent need for a solution that can achieve independent testing of a single process. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a production simulation and debugging platform for automotive stamping die robots, which is mainly used for stamping die simulation testing, realizes independent testing of single process, and enables timely verification of each process die during the development process, effectively improving process development efficiency and problem identification accuracy, preventing waste of production resources and equipment risks, and reducing development costs.
[0006] This utility model discloses a production simulation and debugging platform for automotive stamping die robotic arms, including a mounting plate for mounting automotive stamping dies. Support components are fixed to the bearing surface on both sides of the mounting plate. Two sets of support components are evenly distributed along the length of the mounting plate. A slide rail assembly arranged along the length of the mounting plate is detachably connected to the top of each support component. A robotic arm mounting platform located above the mounting plate is slidably connected between the two slide rail assemblies on both sides of the mounting plate. A first positioning pin for fixing the position of the robotic arm mounting platform is also provided on the slide rail assembly. A mounting seat and a second positioning pin, which passes through the mounting plate and the robotic arm mounting platform sequentially, are slidably connected to the robotic arm mounting platform for fixing the position of the mounting seat. A robotic gripper for automotive stamping die inspection is detachably connected to the mounting seat. A scale for calibration is provided on the upper surfaces of both the slide rail assembly and the robotic arm mounting platform.
[0007] Furthermore, the slide rail assembly includes an inner secondary slide rail disposed on the top of the support assembly. The inner side of the inner secondary slide rail has a slide track arranged along the length direction of the mounting plate. The upper top surface and lower bottom surface of the slide track are provided with corresponding positioning holes that are connected to the slide track. A slider is slidably connected inside the slide track. The slider has a first positioning hole. The robot arm mounting platform is attached to the slider. The end of the robot arm mounting platform has a second positioning hole corresponding to the first positioning hole. The first positioning pin passes through the positioning hole on the upper top surface of the slide track, the second positioning hole, the first positioning hole, and the positioning hole on the lower bottom surface of the slide track in sequence.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the inner auxiliary slide rail is provided with limiting posts at both ends to limit the sliding distance of the slider.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the support assembly includes a horizontal bar and a vertical bar arranged in an L-shape. The end of the horizontal bar away from the vertical bar is bolted to a mounting plate, and the end of the vertical bar away from the horizontal bar is bolted to an inner auxiliary slide rail.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the slide rail assembly further includes a control console for controlling the sliding of the slider, the control console being disposed on top of the inner secondary slide rail and signal-connected to the slider.
[0011] Furthermore, the mounting plate is provided with mounting holes that are adapted to the positioning holes on the automotive stamping die, and the mounting plate is also provided with positioning pins for fixing the automotive stamping die, the positioning pins passing through the positioning holes and mounting holes on the automotive stamping die in sequence.
[0012] Furthermore, the robotic arm mounting platform is provided with a first strip-shaped hole arranged along the length direction of the robotic arm mounting platform, and two first strip-shaped holes are symmetrically arranged on the robotic arm mounting platform. The mounting base is provided with a third positioning hole corresponding to the first strip-shaped hole. The second positioning pin includes a plug rod and a locking nut. The plug rod passes through the third positioning hole and is slidably connected to the first strip-shaped hole. The locking nut is threadedly connected to the end of the plug rod away from the mounting base.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the mounting base is threadedly connected to a connecting plate for mounting a mechanical gripper. The connecting plate has a second strip-shaped hole arranged along the width direction of the mounting base, and two second strip-shaped holes are symmetrically arranged on the connecting plate. A third positioning pin is provided in the second strip-shaped hole, penetrating the mounting base and abutting against the mechanical gripper mounting platform. The upper end of the third positioning pin is threadedly connected to a fastening nut that connects to the top surface of the connecting plate. The mechanical gripper is bolted to the connecting plate.
[0014] Furthermore, the mounting plate, the support assembly, the slide rail assembly, the robotic arm mounting platform, and the mounting base are all made of S45C carbon structural steel.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This automotive stamping die robotic arm production simulation platform is completely independent of the die production line. The automotive stamping die to be tested is placed on the mounting plate and aligned, allowing subsequent die debugging operations, such as the debugging of the mechanical gripper and other components, to be carried out based on the accurate die position. This ensures the accuracy and reliability of the debugging structure and provides an effective verification basis for precise matching during actual die application. Furthermore, the adjustable robotic arm mounting platform and the mounting base for the mechanical gripper allow for setting the mechanical gripper installation position according to the process parameters of different products, such as the slide rail assembly, robotic arm mounting platform, conveyor step distance, and mechanical gripper installation parameters. The mechanical gripper can be quickly positioned and installed on the robotic arm debugging platform using the mechanical gripper mounting positioning pin for simulation debugging. Engineers can intuitively verify key parameters such as the robotic arm's motion trajectory and gripping position under different process intervals, and quickly optimize the stamping process scheme. Compared with traditional die trial methods, this significantly shortens the die debugging cycle and significantly improves trial production efficiency. Its modular design allows for compatibility verification between the mold structure and the automated production system during the mold design phase, enabling early detection and resolution of problems and significantly reducing the number of trial runs later on. Compared to traditional methods, this technical solution reduces reliance on actual stamping equipment, avoids unnecessary occupation of the production line, and effectively reduces resource consumption during the trial production phase.

Detailed Implementation
[0017] The present invention will be further described below.
[0018] This utility model provides a production simulation and debugging platform for automotive stamping die robotic arms, mainly used for stamping die simulation testing. It includes a mounting plate 1 for mounting automotive stamping dies. Support components 2 are fixed to the bearing surface on both sides of the mounting plate 1. Two sets of support components 2 are evenly distributed along the length of the mounting plate 1. A slide rail assembly 3, arranged along the length of the mounting plate 1, is detachably connected to the top of each support component 2. A robotic arm mounting platform 4 located above the mounting plate 1 is slidably connected between the two slide rail assemblies 3 on both sides of the mounting plate 1. A first positioning pin 34 for fixing the position of the robotic arm mounting platform 4 is also provided on the slide rail assembly 3. A mounting seat 5 and a second positioning pin 52, which passes through the mounting plate 1 and the robotic arm mounting platform 4 in sequence, are slidably connected to the robotic arm mounting platform 4 to fix the position of the mounting seat 5. A robotic gripper 6 for automotive stamping die testing is detachably connected to the mounting seat 5. A scale 7 for calibration is provided on the upper surfaces of both the slide rail assembly 3 and the robotic arm mounting platform 4.
[0019] like Figure 1 – Figure 5As shown, the automotive stamping die robotic production simulation debugging platform includes a mounting plate 1 for mounting automotive stamping dies and support components 2 set on both sides of the mounting plate 1. The support components 2 are the basic support components of the entire debugging platform, and are fixed to the ground or load-bearing surface by welding. The support components 2 provide stable support for the mounting plate 1 and the slide rail assembly 3, ensuring the stability of the entire debugging platform. In order to enable the robotic gripper 6 to simultaneously inspect the automotive stamping dies set on the mounting plate 1, two sets of support components 2 are evenly distributed along the length of the mounting plate 1. The support components 2 can be existing steel support columns or support pillars. The mounting plate 1 is horizontally positioned below the support assembly 2 to facilitate the placement of the automotive stamping die to be inspected below the mechanical gripper 6. For easy replacement or disassembly of the mounting plate 1, the mounting plate 1 is bolted to the support assembly 2. The support assembly 2 has a slide rail assembly 3 at its top, on which the robotic arm mounting platform 4 is slidably mounted, allowing adjustment of the robotic arm mounting platform 4 to meet inspection requirements at different locations. The slide rail assembly 3 can utilize an existing gear and rack structure to drive the robotic arm mounting platform 4, or an existing slide rail slider 33 structure to move the robotic arm mounting platform 4. For easy fixing and adjustment... The position of the robotic arm mounting platform 4 is precisely positioned. The slide rail assembly 3 is equipped with a first positioning pin 34 for fixing the position of the robotic arm mounting platform 4. The first positioning pin 34 passes through both the slide rail assembly 3 and the robotic arm mounting platform 4 to fix their relative positions, preventing displacement of the robotic arm mounting platform 4 during inspection and thus avoiding distortion of inspection results. To ensure the connection stability between the robotic gripper and the robotic arm mounting platform 4, and to adjust the installation position of the robotic clamp 6 as needed, a mounting base 5 for mounting the robotic clamp 6 is slidably connected to the robotic arm mounting platform 4. The position of the robotic clamp 6 is adjusted via the mounting base 5 to accommodate different needs. For inspection requirements at the same location, the mounting base 5 is positioned and fixed using the second positioning pin 52 set on the robot mounting platform 4. The mounting base 5 is detachably connected to the mechanical gripper 6 by bolts, so that the corresponding number of mechanical grippers 6 can be set on the mounting plate 1 as needed, and the mechanical grippers 6 can be adjusted to meet the inspection requirements. In order to facilitate real-time monitoring and calibration of the position of the robot mounting platform 4 and the position of the mounting base 5 set on the robot mounting platform 4, a scale 7 for calibration is provided on the upper surface of the slide rail assembly 3 and the robot mounting platform 4. The scale 7 can be set as a micrometer or a micrometer according to actual needs. The specific parameters such as the relative positional relationship between the mechanical gripper 6 and the mold and other components, and the gripping accuracy of the mechanical gripper 6 can be set with reference to the technical requirements and regulations recorded in "Technical Specifications for Design and Manufacturing of Automotive Stamping Dies" and "Standards for Installation and Debugging of Equipment in Automated Stamping Production Lines". These specifications cover the size parameters, installation angle parameters, and distance parameters between the mechanical gripper 6 and the mold and other equipment, thereby ensuring the efficient and accurate operation of the stamping production line.This automotive stamping die robotic production simulation platform is completely independent of the die production line. The automotive stamping die to be tested is placed on the mounting plate 1 and aligned, allowing subsequent die debugging operations, such as the adjustment of the mechanical gripper 6, to be carried out based on the accurate die position. This ensures the accuracy and reliability of the debugging structure and provides an effective verification basis for precise alignment during actual die application. The adjustable robotic arm mounting platform 4 and the mounting base 5 for installing the mechanical gripper 6 allow for setting the mechanical gripper 6's installation position according to different product process parameters, such as the slide rail assembly 3, robotic arm mounting platform 4, conveyor step distance, and mechanical gripper 6 installation parameters. The mechanical gripper 6 can be quickly positioned and installed on the robotic arm debugging platform using the mechanical gripper 6 mounting positioning pins for simulation debugging. Engineers can intuitively verify key parameters such as the robotic arm's motion trajectory and gripping position under different process intervals, quickly optimizing the stamping process. Compared to traditional die trial methods, this significantly shortens the die debugging cycle and significantly improves trial production efficiency. Its modular design allows for compatibility verification between the mold structure and the automated production system during the mold design phase, enabling early detection and resolution of problems and significantly reducing the number of trial runs later on. Compared to traditional methods, this technical solution reduces reliance on actual stamping equipment, avoids unnecessary occupation of the production line, and effectively reduces resource consumption during the trial production phase.
[0020] To facilitate control of the sliding of the robotic arm mounting platform 4, such as Figure 1 – Figure 3As shown, the slide rail assembly 3 includes an inner secondary slide rail 31 disposed on the top of the support assembly 2. A slide rail 32, extending along the length of the mounting plate 1, is provided on the inner side of the inner secondary slide rail 31. Positioning holes 321, corresponding to and connected to the slide rail 32, are provided on both the top and bottom surfaces of the slide rail 32. A slider 33 is slidably connected within the slide rail 32. A first positioning hole 331 is provided on the slider 33. The robotic arm mounting platform 4 rests on the slider 33. A second positioning hole 41, corresponding to the first positioning hole 331, is provided at the end of the robotic arm mounting platform 4. A first positioning pin 34 sequentially passes through the positioning holes 321, 41, 331, and 321 on the top and bottom surfaces of the slide rail 32. The slide rail 32 on the inner side of the inner secondary slide rail 31 facilitates the operator's mounting of the robotic arm. Platform 4 is positioned above mounting plate 1, specifically above the automotive stamping die to be inspected. To ensure that the robotic arm mounting platform 4 can be fixed within the slide rail 32 of the inner auxiliary slide rail 31 after sliding to the corresponding position without deviation, positioning holes 321 corresponding to and connected to the slide rail 32 are provided on both the upper and lower surfaces of the slide rail 32. Multiple positioning holes 321 are evenly distributed on the upper and lower surfaces of the slide rail 32. When the robotic arm mounting platform 4 slides to the designated position, the first positioning pin 34 passes through the positioning holes 321 on the upper surface of the slide rail 32, the second positioning hole 41 at the end of the robotic arm mounting platform 4, the first positioning hole 331 on the slider 33, and the positioning holes 321 on the lower surface of the slide rail 32 in sequence to accurately position the robotic arm mounting platform 4. Furthermore, the detachable robotic arm mounting platform 4 facilitates replacement and maintenance to accommodate different robotic grippers 6. As a preferred method, to prevent the slider 33 from sliding out from both ends of the slide rail 32 during the sliding process, as shown in the figure, the two ends of the inner secondary slide rail 31 are provided with limiting posts 311 for limiting the sliding distance of the slider 33.
[0021] To ensure stable support of the inner auxiliary slide rail 31 by the support component 2 and to save equipment costs, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the support assembly 2 includes an L-shaped horizontal bar 21 and a vertical bar 22. The end of the horizontal bar 21 away from the vertical bar 22 is bolted to the mounting plate 1, and the end of the vertical bar 22 away from the horizontal bar 21 is bolted to the inner secondary slide rail 31. The support assembly 2 includes an L-shaped horizontal bar 21 and a vertical bar 22. To ensure stable support for the inner secondary slide rail 31, two sets of parallel L-shaped horizontal bars 21 and vertical bars 22 are arranged below the inner secondary slide rail 31 to stably support it. To facilitate disassembly, maintenance, or replacement of the mounting plate 1, the mounting plate 1 is bolted to the horizontal bar 21. To facilitate disassembly, maintenance, or replacement of the inner secondary slide rail 31, the inner secondary slide rail 31 is bolted to the vertical bar 22.
[0022] To improve the control precision of the sliding distance of slider 33 and ensure the adjustment precision of the robot mounting platform 4, such as Figure 3 As shown, the slide rail assembly 3 also includes a control console 35 for controlling the sliding of the slider 33. The control console 35 is located on the top of the inner secondary slide rail 31 and is signal-connected to the slider 33. Controlling the sliding distance of the slider 33 through the control console 35 provides better accuracy and faster adjustment speed compared to manual adjustment. Specifically, an electric roller 332 can be set at the bottom of the slider 33, and the control console 35 is signal-connected to the electric roller 332 to control the sliding distance of the electric roller 332.
[0023] To achieve rapid installation and positioning of automotive stamping dies, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the mounting plate 1 has mounting holes 11 that match the positioning holes on the automotive stamping die. The mounting plate 1 also has positioning pins 12 for fixing the automotive stamping die. The positioning pins 12 pass through the positioning holes and mounting holes 11 on the automotive stamping die in sequence. By opening mounting holes 11 on the mounting plate 1 that match the positioning holes on the automotive stamping die, the positioning pins 12 and the positioning holes on the automotive stamping die are clearance-fitted. During installation, the positioning holes of the automotive stamping die are aligned with the positioning pins 12 on the mounting plate 1 and inserted. Utilizing the guiding effect of the positioning pins 12, the position of the automotive stamping die on the automotive stamping die robot production simulation debugging platform can be quickly aligned, ensuring the accurate installation position of the automotive stamping die on the simulation debugging platform. This allows subsequent debugging operations on the die, such as the debugging of the mechanical gripper 6 and other components, to be carried out based on the accurate die position, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the debugging results and providing an effective verification basis for the precise fit of the die in actual application. Meanwhile, to facilitate the inspection of the die slot of the automotive stamping die and the matching degree between the positioning hole of the automotive stamping die and the mounting plate 1, after the die is installed on the mounting plate 1 through the positioning pin 12, the die is aligned by the positioning pin 12 installed on the debugging table, which can realize the quick installation of the die on the debugging table; at the same time, observe the tightness of the fit between the die slot and the corresponding mounting structure on the mounting plate 1. Specifically, the installation matching degree can be quickly verified by measuring the distance error between the edge of the die slot and the mounting reference surface around the positioning hole with measuring tools.
[0024] To ensure that the mounting base 5 remains fixed in position after sliding on the robotic arm mounting platform 4, such as Figure 4As shown, the robotic arm mounting platform 4 is provided with a first strip-shaped hole 42 arranged along the length of the robotic arm mounting platform 4. Two first strip-shaped holes 42 are symmetrically arranged on the robotic arm mounting platform 4. The mounting base 5 is provided with a third positioning hole 51 corresponding to the first strip-shaped hole 42. The second positioning pin 52 includes a rod 521 and a locking nut 522. The rod 521 passes through the third positioning hole 51 and is slidably connected to the first strip-shaped hole 42. The locking nut 522 is threadedly connected to the end of the rod 521 away from the mounting base 5. The first strip-shaped hole 42 is provided on the robotic arm mounting platform 4. The first slot 42 allows the mounting base 5, which is connected to the robot mounting platform 4 via the second positioning pin 52, to slide along the direction of the first slot 42 to adjust its installation position for inspection of automotive stamping dies. Specifically, when the mounting base 5 needs to slide, the locking nut 522 is screwed away from the robot mounting platform 4, at which point the mounting base 5 can slide along the direction of the first slot 42. When the mounting base 5 needs to be locked, the locking nut 522 is screwed to abut against the robot mounting platform 4 to fix the relative position of the mounting base 5 and the robot mounting platform 4.
[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 As shown, the mechanical gripper 6 is connected to the mounting base 5 by bolts, which facilitates replacement and adjustment of the mechanical gripper 6's installation position. Specifically, the mounting base 5 is threaded with a connecting plate 8 for mounting the mechanical gripper 6. The connecting plate 8 has second strip-shaped holes 81 arranged along the width direction of the mounting base 5. Two second strip-shaped holes 81 are symmetrically arranged on the connecting plate 8. A third positioning pin 82 is provided in the second strip-shaped hole 81, penetrating the mounting base 5 and abutting against the robotic arm mounting platform 4. The upper end of the third positioning pin 82 is threaded with a fastening nut 83 that contacts the top surface of the connecting plate 8. The mechanical gripper 6 is bolted to the connecting plate 8. The mounting base 5 is provided with a connecting plate 8. The mechanical gripper 6 extends towards the automotive stamping die mounted on the mounting plate 1, so as to mount the mechanical gripper 6 on the connecting plate 8. The connecting plate 8 has a second slotted hole 81 to adjust the extension length of the connecting plate 8, that is, to adjust the distance between the mechanical gripper 6 and the automotive stamping die. Specifically, a third positioning pin 82 is provided in the second slotted hole 81. The third positioning pin 82 is used to abut against the mechanical arm mounting platform 4 through the second slotted hole 81 and through the mounting base 5, so that the connecting plate 8 can slide on the mounting base 5 along the direction of the second slotted hole 81. Then, the fastening nut 83 threaded on the third positioning pin 82 is screwed on to abut against the connecting plate 8, thereby fixing the relative position between the connecting plate 8 and the mounting base 5.
[0026] To save manufacturing costs and ensure the strength of the simulation test bench, the mounting plate 1, the support assembly 2, the slide rail assembly 3, the robotic arm mounting platform 4, and the mounting base 5 are all made of S45C carbon structural steel. The simulation test bench is made entirely of S45C carbon structural steel, which is inexpensive and possesses good hardness and strength. Even if damage occurs due to misoperation, the losses from repair or even remanufacturing are minimal, and the damage to personnel and equipment is also small. This facilitates practical training for newly hired employees. Simultaneously, it reduces mold manufacturing costs, stamping machine usage costs for production enterprises, and the costs of repeated repairs and adjustments in case of abnormalities. Furthermore, after appropriate heat treatment, S45C carbon structural steel can achieve a hardness of HRC55-60, and can also be used to manufacture high-strength locating pins and other components.
[0027] Working Principle: The lower die holder of the automotive stamping mold achieves rapid positioning, installation, and alignment via a positioning pin 12 mounted on the mounting plate 1. The positioning pin 12 and the lower die holder of the automotive stamping mold have a clearance fit, and the pin body of the positioning pin 12 is adapted to the pre-set positioning hole on the lower die holder of the automotive stamping mold. During installation, the positioning hole of the lower die holder of the automotive stamping mold is aligned with the positioning pin 12 and inserted. Utilizing the guiding effect of the positioning pin 12, the lower die holder can be quickly aligned on the mounting plate 1 of the simulation debugging platform. This ensures the accurate installation position of the lower die holder of the automotive stamping mold on the simulation debugging platform, enabling subsequent debugging operations on the mold, such as debugging the coordination with components like robotic arms, to be carried out based on the accurate mold position. This guarantees the accuracy and reliability of the debugging results and provides an effective verification basis for the precise coordination of the mold in actual applications. Meanwhile, after quickly fixing the automotive stamping die onto the mounting plate 1 using the positioning pin 12, the installation matching degree between the die slot, positioning hole and mounting plate 1 can be checked. Specifically, after installing the automotive stamping die onto the mounting plate 1 using the positioning pin 12, the automotive stamping die is aligned using the positioning pin 12. This allows for the rapid installation of the automotive stamping die on the production simulation debugging table of the automotive stamping die robot. At the same time, the tightness of the fit between the die slot and the corresponding mounting structure on the mounting plate 1 can be observed, and the distance error between the edge of the die slot and the mounting reference surface around the quick positioning hole can be measured with measuring tools to quickly verify the installation matching degree between the two. After installing the automotive stamping die to be tested, according to the industry standard documents such as the "Automotive Stamping Parts Manufacturing Process Specification", the movement, fit, and internal parameters of the sub-structure in the stamping process are recorded. The control console 35, which is signal-connected to the slider 33 in the slide rail assembly 3, controls the slider 33 to slide along the inner sub-slide rail 31, driving the robotic arm mounting platform 4 to the corresponding installation position. Then, the first positioning pin 34 is used to fix the robotic arm mounting platform 4 to the corresponding position on the inner sub-slide rail 31, thereby precisely adjusting the position of the inner sub-slide rail 31 to meet the stamping process requirements. Furthermore, according to the installation parameters of the mechanical gripper 6 corresponding to the spacing between stamping process steps, such as the technical requirements and regulations in the "Automotive Stamping Die Design and Manufacturing Technical Specification" and the "Standard for Installation and Debugging of Stamping Automated Production Line Equipment" regarding the spacing of each process step in the stamping process, the relative positional relationship between the mechanical gripper 6 and the die and other components, and the gripping accuracy of the mechanical gripper 6, the installation position, installation angle parameters, and distance parameters between the mechanical gripper 6 and the die and other equipment are adjusted by sliding the mounting base 5 and adjusting the position of the connecting plate 8, ensuring the efficient and precise operation of the stamping production line.The mechanical gripper 6 is installed on the connecting plate 8 using bolts, that is, the mechanical gripper 6 is installed on the robotic arm mounting platform 4. The installation matching degree between the gripper 6 and the conveyor arm is then checked in the following ways: First, using measuring tools such as dial indicators and calipers, the coaxiality, end-face parallelism, and spacing of the gripping end of the mechanical gripper 6 and the docking end of the conveyor arm are measured; then, the conveyor arm is driven by the auxiliary control console 35 inside the conveyor arm to simulate operation to the docking position, and the tightness of the fit between the mechanical gripper 6 and the conveyor arm docking structure is observed. Simultaneously, the smooth and uninterrupted state of the two during simulated coordinated action is checked. The verification qualification standard must meet the requirements of industry standards such as the "Technical Specification for Installation and Commissioning of Stamping Automation Equipment," namely, the coaxiality error should not exceed 0.05mm, the end-face parallelism error should not exceed 0.03mm, the spacing deviation should be within ±0.1mm, and the coordinated action of the two should be smooth and without interference, meeting the precise coordination requirements of material gripping and conveying in the stamping process. By controlling the clamping or releasing time of the cylinder of the mechanical gripper 6 through a pneumatic source, the clamping or releasing of the product is simulated to confirm whether the position of the product held by the mechanical gripper 6 meets the requirements. Specifically, by controlling the clamping and releasing time of the cylinder of the mechanical gripper 6 through its own pneumatic source, the entire process of clamping, conveying, and releasing the product by the mechanical gripper 6 in the stamping production is simulated. During this simulation, a visual inspection device, such as an industrial camera, is used simultaneously to capture the position coordinates of the product held by the mechanical gripper 6. This is used to determine whether the position of the product held by the mechanical gripper 6 is within the preset qualified range. For example, the offset between the product center and the gripper center does not exceed 0.1mm. This confirms whether the clamping position of the mechanical gripper 6 meets the process requirements of accurate product conveying and avoiding collision with the mold in the stamping process, thus solving the problem of the disconnect between simply simulating the clamping / releasing action and position detection. Simultaneously, by simulating the working trajectory of the mechanical gripper 6, it is possible to check for any production abnormalities such as interference between the mechanical gripper 6 and the mounting plate 1 and the mold during automated production. Specifically, by pre-setting a standard working trajectory program for the mechanical gripper 6 in the auxiliary control console 35 within the conveyor arm, the mechanical gripper 6 is driven to run along the trajectory. Simultaneously, a laser displacement sensor is used to scan the relative spatial positions of the mechanical gripper 6, the mounting plate 1, and the mold, or an industrial camera is used to capture the running process and compare it with an image of the interference-free standard trajectory to achieve interference detection. The acceptance criteria are: the minimum distance between the mechanical gripper 6, the mounting plate 1, and the mold throughout the entire operation must meet the requirements of the "Safety Distance Specification for Automated Stamping Equipment" (e.g., the minimum distance is not less than 5mm), and there should be no contact or collision between any parts. These abnormalities can be resolved before mass production to ensure smooth production. Since the simulation test bench is made of S45C steel, the manufacturing cost is low, and even if it is damaged due to misoperation, the loss of repair or even remanufacturing is not significant, and the damage to people and equipment is also small. It is beneficial for newly hired employees to practice actual operation. At the same time, the mold manufacturer reduces the mold transportation cost, the production enterprise's stamping machine usage cost, and the cost of repeated modification and debugging when abnormalities occur.
[0028] The automotive stamping die robotic arm production simulation platform provided by this utility model can significantly optimize the die design and trial production process. By accurately simulating the coordinated movement of the robotic arm and the die, it can identify compatibility issues between key elements such as die structure design, positioning holes, and die slots and the automated production system during the trial production stage. This allows design defects to be corrected before mass production, avoiding the time and cost waste caused by repeated die modifications later. Furthermore, through adjustable robotic arm mounting platform 4 and positioning pins 12, the robotic arm mounting position can be set according to the process parameters of different products, such as the inner axis of the robotic arm, the conveying step distance, and the installation parameters of the robotic gripper 6. The robotic gripper 6 can be quickly positioned and installed on the robotic arm debugging and operation platform for simulation debugging. Engineers can intuitively verify key parameters such as the robotic arm movement trajectory and gripping position under different process intervals, and quickly optimize the stamping process scheme. Compared to traditional trial molding methods, this simulation platform significantly shortens the mold debugging cycle and greatly improves trial production efficiency. Simultaneously, it effectively reduces resource consumption during the trial production phase. Specifically, its modular design allows for verification of the mold structure's compatibility with the automated production system during the mold design stage, enabling early detection and resolution of problems and significantly reducing the number of subsequent trial moldings. Compared to traditional methods, this technical solution reduces reliance on actual stamping equipment, avoiding unnecessary occupation of the production line. Furthermore, this solution breaks through the industry pain point of traditional debugging being limited by specific stamping presses. Through its innovative adjustable structural design, the simulation platform can fully simulate the working characteristics of stamping presses of different tonnages from 1000T to 3000T, with an internal adjustment range of 1000mm-2000mm, and supports various mold step distance parameter settings within the range of 900mm-1500mm. This full-parameter pre-verification capability allows mold developers to complete process verification under all possible production conditions before mass production, ensuring that the mold design has true production versatility and significantly reducing the cost of repeated debugging caused by machine replacement.
