The most critical technology of an intelligent palletizing robot is spatial algorithm and spatial positioning, followed by the motion mechanism at the joint.
Nowadays, computer camera technology and computer technology are relatively backward, unable to achieve the ability to accurately distinguish objects in space.If the CUP of Pentium II goes on the market, it is possible to solve the technical problems in this area.
However, for Yiming Group, spatial algorithms and spatial positioning technology are not a problem. The most difficult problem is mechanical technology.The palletizing robot of Yiming Group can only achieve five-axis electromechanical drive at present.
And KUKA’s robots have achieved six-axis electromechanical drive as early as the 1970s.In the late 1980s, they applied the Hall motor to the joint structure of the robot.In this way, the maintenance cost of KUKA robots is greatly reduced, and the market share is suddenly expanded.
Xu Zhenming led a team to visit to see how they realized the six-axis electromechanical drive.As long as we get the technical inspiration in this respect, the intelligent palletizing robot produced by Yiming Group will overtake corners and catch up with the KUKA palletizing robot in one fell swoop.
Seeing that Basler, who can go to play basketball, didn’t tell the truth, Xu Zhenming smiled, “Our Rich Car Company needs a fully automatic stamping production line. Galvanized sheet and stamped automotive sheet metal parts are required. Use smart palletizing robots to complete."
"Eh? This question is a bit difficult. But it is not impossible. Mr. Xu, please come with me to visit the car assembly line. Our company has two palletizing robots with functions similar to what you requested."
Xu Zhenming's requirements are very high, but Basler is very happy.Although he is a big man, he also has great wisdom. He wants to sell the most advanced robot to Xu Zhenming and to Ricky Car Company.
Xu Zhenming readily agreed, leading the team behind Basler and walking towards the car assembly line.
The main equipment of this automobile assembly line is provided by German Bosch. The welding robots, handling robots, assembly robots and other industrial robots on the production line are all KUKA products.
These industrial robots are all six-axis electromechanical drives, which are much more complicated than the robot manipulators designed by Yiming Group.
Seeing this scene, Hong Aiguo's team members couldn't help but be stunned. They couldn't help slowing down and carefully observe the action procedures and work effects of the KUKA robot.
So far, the manipulators designed by Yiming Group are only five-axis electromechanical drive structure, which is a grade different from KUKA's products.
The joint mechanism of the manipulator is increased by one, and the degree of difficulty must be increased by one level.The Germans' mechanical skills are indeed great, and they cannot be convinced.
"Old Hong, how did they do it?" Seeing this scene, a young mechanical engineer lowered his voice and asked Hong Aiguo.
Hong Aiguo shook his head, "The Germans have high machining precision and high precision joint mechanism, so they can do this. Our group company did not have high-precision machine tools before, so we can only retreat to the second place. If it is manufactured, this problem can be solved."
While talking, he looked at Xu Zhenming and prepared to give Xu Zhenming suggestions to upgrade all the machine tools of Yiming Group.Once this goal is achieved, the equipment level of Yiming Group will be raised to another level.
But if you do this, Yiming Group will burn another 50 million yuan in renovation funds.
Which domestic company dares to do this?Which other company will continue to upgrade the basic processing machine tools of its own factory?It is precisely because of this that Huaguo's mechanical technology has developed slowly and cannot produce high-precision spare parts and products.
"Mr. Basler, what equipment are you going to show me? I haven't seen a robot that can automatically carry auto parts?" At this time, Xu Zhenming ignored Hong Aiguo's gaze, but was constantly flicking. Basler, the eldest man of the card company.He can't be exposed, otherwise it won't be fun.
The more Xu Zhenming urged Basler, the happier Basler was."This President Xu is still a short-tempered man. Such an engineer who doesn't understand it is best to fool." Basler thought excitedly, and led Xu Zhenming and others to the auto spray paint section.
This section is a relatively important station for the automobile assembly line.Whether the appearance of a car is good or not, whether it can be bought at a price, the exterior painting is very important.Therefore, the production line of automatic spray paint for automobiles has a very high degree of automation, and automatic paint spray is the first place to realize the use of robots.
By the same token, this automobile assembly line of Huaijiang Automobile Manufacturing Plant has realized unmanned operation of automobile painting and baking.
The car frame transported from the assembly line is equipped with two large manipulators to transport the car to the assembly line of the automatic spraying station.The two large handling robots are two palletizing robots, which are painted with orange paint and are driven by six-axis electromechanics.
The car frame is moved to the automatic painting and baking assembly line, and moves along with the chain conveyor, and stops at the automatic painting station.
At this time, there are four more automatic painting manipulators, which start painting automatically around the car frame.The four automatic painting robots are also driven by six-axis electromechanical drives, and they are very flexible and can be automatically adjusted according to the shape of the car frame shell.
Looking at the red dots on the manipulator, an engineer asked in surprise, "What is that?"
"Oh, that is the most advanced laser rangefinder. Our automatic paint spraying robot is currently the most advanced paint spraying robot in the world. It can automatically recognize the appearance of the car. Therefore, after this spraying robot is operated, the car shell is evenly painted. , The thickness of the paint film and the color difference of the appearance are very accurate."
Seeing that Xu Zhenming's team is very interested in the automatic spray paint and baking paint production line. Basler introduced it in detail and introduced the principles of the entire production line in detail.
And this is what Xu Zhenming expected.
He is looking for a similar ranging sensor to prepare for the transformation of the automatic painting robot of Yiming Group.Through this introduction by Basler, Xu Zhenming already knows how to design his own factory's painting robot.
In fact, Basler has some reservations.He did not say that the four automatic spraying robots were driven by four workstations.
The car shell model has long been stored in the workstation of the automatic spraying robot.The automatic painting robot is positioned according to the data of the car shell model, and then adjusts the angle according to the data feedback from the laser rangefinder.
In this way, the automatic spraying robot seen by Xu Zhenming and others is very smart, able to gently maintain a distance and control the thickness of the paint film.
As the so-called layman watch the excitement, the expert watch the doorway.
Xu Zhenming has already seen the mystery through these observations and found a solution.So at this point, he had no need to stay any longer, and was going to the Luzhou City Office of Yiming Group Company for a meeting and assign tasks.
Basler, Koman and others were very enthusiastic and accompanied Xu Peidong to send Xu Zhenming together.
"Mr. Xu, you are welcome to visit our company in Germany."
"We will show you the most advanced production line."
The three of them all stepped forward to shake hands with Xu Zhenming and say goodbye, wishing to flick Xu Zhenming to visit Germany now.
Because of this, Xu Zhenming did not have time to take the video tapes prepared by Xu Peidong, so he had to leave Luzhou Huaijiang Automobile Manufacturing Plant immediately.He can't reveal his identity to make Xu Peidong ugly, right?
Soon, Xu Zhenming led the team and came to the courtyard of Luzhou No. 2 Radio Factory.Shi Jun and Rui Xinsong had prepared the meeting room long ago and stood waiting under the office building.
This office building was built by Shi Jun himself after taking office. The exterior walls were not painted, but small pieces of white tiles, which looked very beautiful.
Yiming Group Luzhou Company operates in this office building. Shi Jun is the general manager of Luzhou Company and is doing very well at present."Xu Dong, when do we have a meeting?" Seeing Xu Zhenming leading the crowd, he quickly walked up and invited them to do reception work.
Xu Zhenming stretched out his right hand to shake hands with Shi Jun, "You immediately arrange for someone to go to the Huaijiang Automobile Manufacturing Plant to find Xu Peidong, and bring back the video tape he prepared for me."
Shi Jun was arranged to handle major events, and Xu Zhenming asked Rui Xinsong to follow along to participate in the project meeting of the automatic stamping production line of Yiming Group.
"Dear colleagues, the German production line has been visited, and everyone said and said their own feelings." After everyone was seated, Xu Zhenming immediately asked questions for everyone to express their opinions.
Hong Aiguo was the first to speak, expressing his views, "Xu Dong, I suggest upgrading the production equipment in the group headquarters compound again. As long as the precision of the production equipment, machine tools, and production lines meets the requirements, we can make This high-precision production line of the Germans."
He is only equipment, not only technology, Xu Zhenming can meet his requirements.
"Xu Dong, I think we can now realize a six-axis electromechanical drive robot." Wang Zhizhong looked at his laptop and raised different opinions.
Hearing this, the young engineers who were still discouraged suddenly showed their eyes and looked at Wang Zhizhong vigorously.
Xu Zhenming smiled and nodded when he heard the words, and motioned for Wang Zhizhong to continue speaking downward.
When Wang Zhizhong visited the production line, he had written many ideas, and he was going back to report to Xu Zhenming.Therefore, he did not rush and report to the notebook.
"Xu Dong, colleagues, the core code of the CNC system of our group company has space algorithm and space positioning algorithm. Because the computing power of 32-bit single-chip microcomputer is not enough, these two algorithms can not run, so we cancel the algorithm. If there is no algorithm, if it is used The six-axis electromechanical drive robot will cause the robot to freeze. And now..."
Wang Zhizhong proposed to use the Longteng workstation to drive the robot to ensure the spatial algorithm and spatial positioning algorithm.As long as the space algorithm can run, it doesn't matter if the robot's joints are slightly inflexible.
"Team leader Wang made sense. I immediately designed the mechanical drawing of the six-axis manipulator after I returned."
"We use the five-axis machining center to process the parts of the new manipulator to ensure machining accuracy."
"I have another idea. The newly designed six-axis electromechanical drive manipulator is all machined parts. Anyway, at the demonstration stage, we are not afraid of trouble."
The young members of Hong Aiguo's team are all suffocating and want to make a domestically-made six-axis electromechanical driven robot.
The most critical technology of an intelligent palletizing robot is spatial algorithm and spatial positioning, followed by the motion mechanism at the joint.
Nowadays, computer camera technology and computer technology are relatively backward, unable to achieve the ability to accurately distinguish objects in space.If the CUP of Pentium II goes on the market, it is possible to solve the technical problems in this area.
