Rebar Binding Machine Position Mapping for Searchable Tie Data
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems for binding reinforcing bars fail to acquire binding related information and the position of a binding position, making it difficult to search for the binding position, making it difficult to search for the binding position, making it difficult to search for the binding related information for each binding position in a reinforcing mesh.
Innovation Solution
A binding system that includes a binding machine capable of acquiring binding related information and specifying the position of each binding position by associating position information with binding related information, utilizing a transfer robot to move the binding machine to the binding position, and a reel accommodation unit to manage wire supply.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If a plurality of binding machines are arranged in a reinforcing mesh manufacturing device, then binding operations can be performed at multiple positions, but it becomes difficult to search for and manage binding related information for each binding position
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides binding information management into discrete units by associating each binding position with unique position information (coordinates). This segmentation allows individual tracking of binding results, wire consumption, and other parameters at each specific location, resolving the information management difficulty while maintaining multi-position binding capability
Solution Approach 2:
The binding machine acquires and stores binding related information (binding results, wire end detection, etc.) for each binding position, creating a feedback system that tracks and manages information across all binding positions. This enables systematic retrieval and analysis of binding data without losing track of information in multi-position operations
2Ease of operation
If binding related information is not acquired and stored, then the binding system operates simply, but it becomes difficult to search for binding position information and binding results
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by acquiring and storing position information and binding related information during the binding process itself. This preliminary data collection enables easy searching and retrieval of binding position information and results without adding complex post-processing operations
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces an information storage and management mechanism that acts as an intermediary between the binding machine and the binding positions. This intermediary stores associations between position information and binding results, enabling efficient searching and detection while maintaining operational simplicity
