Analyze how the elbow link performs automation system integration to achieve automated production

Why are many companies considering automated production now? The reason is very simple. For most enterprises, in recent years, the renminbi has continued to depreciate, the labor cost has increased year by year, and the sales price of enterprises has not increased proportionately. Instead, it has been decreasing year by year. Workers are difficult to recruit, management is difficult, and work-related accidents are paid. Towards higher and higher trends, the above factors have led entrepreneurs and bosses to reduce direct labor costs and management costs. Pursuing automated production has become the best choice for entrepreneurs in the future in labor-intensive industries! As long as it is a simple and repeated production task, it can replace the labor with automatic equipment to reduce the number of laborers, reduce the accident rate and increase the stability of the product.

In the pipe processing industry, from the process of pipe cutting, deburring (chamfering), pipe end forming, bending, punching, welding, etc., each step requires a lot of manual production. Now we will introduce the bending process. How to integrate automation systems for automated production.

First, the pipe bending machine automatic loading and unloading machine mode:

A bending machine with an automatic loading and unloading machine can reduce one labor. For example, there are 9 bending machines in the workshop. Each bending machine is equipped with an automatic loading and unloading machine, which can directly save 8 people and keep A manual batching of each special machine is carried out. After the silo is full, the automatic equipment can continue to work for several hours. The labor can simultaneously perform the necessary quality inspection on the produced products. While this automated mode achieves automated production, the company saves a lot of labor and generates new profit points. The automation mode has low input cost, quick effect and simple equipment maintenance.

A typical case video is as follows:

The automatic loading and unloading machine of the pipe bending machine in the above video can realize the automatic loading and unloading of the pipe fittings, the production cycle is close to the manual, the overall efficiency is higher than the manual, the weld seam can be detected under the condition that the condition is low, if the whole cylinder structure, one A one-year salary (8 hours) can be used to purchase a special plane (equivalent to sending wages to an automatic plane, and the company does not have additional funds). If the automatic plane starts two or three shifts per day, it can be recovered within half a year. With all the investment, in the future, enterprises can save labor, increase profits and reduce the risk of business operations by paying low maintenance costs.

Pipe fitting range: diameter 12-38+, pipe 150-1000, adjustable between openings

Second, the automatic loading and unloading mode of industrial robots:

An industrial robot servos a pipe bender: In this configuration, a robot is equipped with a pipe bender to feed and unload the pipe bender, and the loading part must have a top material sorting mechanism ( If necessary, it is necessary to include the inspection of the weld seam. The specific configuration is as follows:

A typical case video is as follows:

An industrial robot servos two bending machines: In this configuration, one robot cooperates with two bending machines. In order to improve the running speed of the whole system, the loading part is directly connected to the bending machine by the respective loading mechanism. Material (weld seam inspection can be carried out under conditions), two tube benders can process the same pipe fittings, and can also process different pipe fittings. The blanking part is machined by the robot to cut the two pipe bending machines and according to the regulations. Mode code, the specific configuration is as shown below:
