What type of injection factory workshop is suitable for the general installation of five-axis tauren servo manipulator?
Five-axis tauren servo manipulator is suitable for injection workshop type.
Relying on the five-axis servo drive and bull-head structure, the five-axis bull-head servo manipulator has the characteristics of high freedom of movement, stable operation, flexible travel coverage, and can complete complex picking and post-operation. It is suitable for a variety of middle and high-end injection production scenarios, mainly for the injection factory workshops with high product precision, integrated process, limited workshop space and flexible production of various varieties. It is different from the traditional three-axis and single-axis simple manipulators and has a clear applicable boundary in equipment selection.
First of all, the manipulator is suitable for * * precision small parts injection molding workshop * *, which mostly produces electronic components, connectors, sensor housings, precision plastic gears, mobile phones and flat structural parts, micro household appliances accessories and other products. This kind of products have thin wall thickness and strict dimensional tolerance, which requires extremely high vibration and positioning accuracy in the process of picking up parts. Five-axis full servo drive can realize multi-axis synchronous motion, and the actions of picking, turning and placing are stable, and the repeated positioning accuracy can reach the level of ±0.01mm, so that the product surface will not be scratched and the thin-walled parts will not be deformed during picking. The bull-head-shaped frame structure occupies less lateral space in front of the injection molding machine, and will not interfere with the lateral core-pulling mechanism of the mold, so it can adapt to the precision mold with multi-slider and complex core-pulling structure. The workshop is usually equipped with a constant temperature workshop environment, and the product appearance defects are strictly controlled. The traditional simple manipulator is stiff, which is easy to cause the product to be white and scratched. The five-axis tauren servo manipulator can realize soft picking and meet the production requirements of dust-free or low-dust precision injection workshop, which is common in the injection workshop of consumer electronic parts.
Secondly, it is suitable for * * injection workshops that need to integrate out-of-mold automation processes. Many injection molding plants not only simply take out the products, but also need to simultaneously complete the compound processes such as product turning, gate cutting, waste cutting, visual inspection, embedded parts placement, product palletizing, and fixture transportation after the manipulator takes the parts. Three-axis manipulator can only do simple straight-line movements up and down, back and forth, left and right, and can't flip the product flexibly. The five-axis bull's-head servo manipulator has the freedom of rotation and turnover, and can directly take the product to complete multi-attitude adjustment after taking the part, and complete a number of auxiliary operations at the same station, thus realizing the integration of injection molding and post-processing. For example, in the injection workshop for producing automobile plastic parts, home appliance panels and packaging containers, after the products are taken out, they need to be turned over to check the appearance and remove the waste materials in the runner. With the adoption of the five-axis bull's-head manipulator, there is no need to configure additional manual or independent workstations, which reduces the labor input in the workshop and is suitable for the injection workshop that wants to realize less people and automatic transformation. Generally, this kind of workshop has stable orders and large output in a single batch, and is willing to invest in automation equipment to reduce labor costs and reduce oil stains and fingerprint defects caused by manual contact with products.
Thirdly, it is suitable for injection molding workshop with compact workshop space and dense arrangement of multiple injection molding machines. The main beam of the bull's head manipulator is erected above the injection molding machine, which is different from the structure in which the side-hung manipulator extends outwards, and will not occupy too much ground space in front of the injection molding machine. Many old injection molding workshops have narrow channels, closely arranged injection molding machines, and auxiliary machines such as material boxes, conveyor belts, dehumidifying dryers, etc. are also placed on the ground. The traditional long cantilever manipulator is easy to interfere with the channels, which has potential safety hazards. The five-axis bull's head servo manipulator is mainly arranged vertically, and the lateral extension distance can be controlled, which is suitable for the reconstruction of old factories or the injection workshop with high density layout. The workshop height of small and medium-sized injection molding plants is moderate, and there is no super-high factory building condition. The bull's head structure does not need too high top installation space, so it is convenient to install and debug, and there is no need to transform the steel structure of the factory building on a large scale, thus reducing the capital construction cost of automation transformation. Small and medium-sized injection molding machine clusters are common in this kind of workshop, and the machine tonnage is mostly in the range of 50 tons to 300 tons, which is suitable for the production of small to medium-sized plastic parts.
Fourth, it is suitable for injection molding workshops with multi-variety and small-batch flexible production. At present, many injection molding plants no longer produce a single product, with frequent order switching and frequent mold replacement. The five-axis servo manipulator has strong program storage capacity, can preset multiple sets of product action programs, quickly retrieve the programs after changing the mold, adjust the picking trajectory and turning angle, and has fast debugging speed. Compared with the special customized manipulator, the five-axis tauren manipulator is more flexible, and a set of manipulator can adapt to a variety of plastic parts with different shapes, which is suitable for workshops with many kinds of molds and fast product switching, such as medical consumables injection workshop and customized plastic parts workshop. Medical plastic parts require high cleanliness, and the five-axis servo operation has low dust and oil pollution, which can meet the basic clean production requirements of medical-grade injection molding workshop, and the picking action can be controlled to avoid debris pollution of products.
Fifth, it is suitable for injection molding workshops with high requirements for product appearance, such as cosmetic shells, home appliance decorative parts and transparent acrylic plastic parts. There should be no scratches and bumps on the surface of this kind of products, and it is easy to cause bad appearance by manual picking. The acceleration and deceleration curve of the five-axis bull's head servo manipulator can be finely set, with no impact when starting and stopping, smooth movement and stable suction cups or fixtures. At the same time, the manipulator can cooperate with the electrostatic elimination device to reduce the electrostatic adsorption of dust in the process of taking parts and ensure the appearance quality. This kind of workshop has strict quality inspection standards, strict control of defective products, and stable operation with manipulator, which can greatly reduce the appearance defect rate.
At the same time, it is also necessary to make clear the inapplicable scenes. Generally, five-axis bull-head servo manipulator is not used in large-scale and super-heavy plastic parts and large-tonnage injection molding machine workshops. This kind of product is heavy and needs a gantry manipulator with greater load. In the workshop of simple crude plastic parts and low value-added disposable plastic parts, three-axis simple manipulator is generally selected from the cost point of view, and the procurement cost of five-axis tauren servo manipulator is high, so it is difficult to recover the equipment investment for low-margin products.
On the whole, the five-axis bull's-head servo manipulator, the core of which is an injection workshop with precise injection molding, multi-process integration, limited workshop space and the pursuit of flexible automation, is mostly used in high-end plastic products manufacturers such as consumer electronics, automobile parts, medical plastics, household appliances appearance parts, etc., to help the workshop realize automatic production with few people, stabilize product quality, improve production rhythm and reduce adverse and safety risks caused by manual operation.
