Detailed description of the invention
As shown in Figure 1, Figure 2 and Figure 3, a kind of more than two injection machines configure the framework that manipulator is produced, and comprise processing and pick-off unit and control system.Processing and pick-off unit are made up of the injection moulding unit 3 of more than two injection moulding units 3 one-tenth and a manipulator 1.Manipulator 1 can from arbitrary injection machine pickup and inloading part.
Control system, comprises Manipulator Controller, master controller and the controller of plastic injection molding corresponding with injection machine quantity.Manipulator Controller and arbitrary controller of plastic injection molding are all connected on master controller based on field data bus, realize real-time Communication for Power, started by main controller controls and stop, every platform controller of plastic injection molding is connected respectively an injection machine, control the startup of injection machine and the process of product, and the current state of injection machine is fed back to master controller, Manipulator Controller is connected with manipulator 1, control manipulator 1 and complete orbiting motion and the action such as pickup and inloading part, and the duty of manipulator 1 is fed back to master controller.
Fig. 1 is the first embodiment, has 5 injection machines, and every platform injection machine is with inloading part point for the circular layout in the center of circle, and distance between adjacent injection machine is equal.Fig. 2 is the second embodiment, has 4 injection machines, orthogonal layout centered by inloading part point.
Be provided with free degree guide rail 2 above injection moulding unit 3, manipulator 1 is arranged on free degree guide rail 2, can move, thus carry out the operation of pickup and inloading part from injection machine on free degree guide rail 2.
Free degree guide rail 2 is for having the Three Degree Of Freedom guide rail in x, y, z direction, and manipulator 1 does three-dimensional motion on Three Degree Of Freedom guide rail.
Due in the injection machine production process more than two, only need the operation carrying out pickup and inloading part with a manipulator 1, avoid the high cost collocation that an injection machine configures a manipulator 1, reduce equipment cost and production cost.
As Figure 1-Figure 4, a kind of more than two injection machines configure the control method that a manipulator 1 is produced, controller of plastic injection molding by the injection moulding machine mould open signal feedback of correspondence to master controller, master controller controls manipulator 1 pickup and inloading part from this injection machine respectively by Manipulator Controller, after pickup completes, Manipulator Controller feedback signal to master controller by this injection machine matched moulds of main controller controls, after inloading part completes, manipulator 1 pickup and inloading part from the injection machine of next die sinking, circulates so always.
As further preferred embodiment, when each injection machine starts, master controller sets start-up time, controls corresponding injection machine start by set date successively by master controller by each controller of plastic injection molding.
As a further improvement on the present invention, the setting of time of starting successively of injection machine and injection machine quantity comprises the following steps:
A. the injection cycle of injection machine and the pickup distance of manipulator 1 and injection machine determine the pickup speed of manipulator 1;
B. manipulator 1 pickup speed and determine start-up time of next injection machine to the pickup distance of next injection machine and injection cycle;
C. process-cycle of injection machine and start-up time the quantity that injection machine is set is determined.
As further preferred embodiment, each injection moulding machine mould open time staggers, and ensure that any two injection machines can not under the prerequisite of simultaneously die sinking, manipulator 1 completes maximum pickup number of times continuously, saves the stand-by period in pickup process, enhances productivity.
As further preferred embodiment, the ornaments of injection machine must ensure that manipulator 1 at every turn can with the shortest distance pickup, the pickup of every platform injection machine is apart from equal, between two injection machines started successively, the time interval of die sinking is identical, and manipulator 1 is identical with the time of inloading part to every platform workpiece-taking of plastic jetting-moulding machine.The control of such program is relatively simple.
As further preferred embodiment, pickup is started to next injection machine after manipulator 1 completes inloading part to the last injection machine opened successively at once, decrease the stand-by time of manipulator 1, enhance productivity.
This control method is exemplified below.
For the first embodiment, see Fig. 1 and Fig. 4, identical product is produced with the injection machine of same model, the injection cycle of injection machine is 50s, die sinking is last 5 s to the time of matched moulds, and the pickup distance of arbitrary injection machine is 3 m, therefore, in 5 seconds after die sinking, manipulator 1 needs the pickup distance brought into operation through 3 m from inloading part point to complete pickup, and therefore the pickup speed of manipulator 1 is 0.6 m/s; After pickup, manipulator 1 is back to the time of inloading part point is also 5s, i.e. pickup and the total 10s consuming time of inloading part.Because the injection cycle of every platform injection machine is identical, in order to the second injection machine when ensureing the 55s completed at the first injection machine inloading part just die sinking manipulator 1 is worked always, the start-up time of the second injection machine fixes on 10s; The like, the 10s slower in the start-up time of last injection machine start-up time of next injection machine; Stagger in order to ensure each injection moulding machine mould open time, ensure that any two injection machines can not simultaneously die sinking, 5 injection machines are set altogether, with inloading part point for the center of circle is circular uniform.Concrete participation following table.
Arranged the start-up time of each injection machine enter in master controller, the initial position of manipulator 1 is at inloading part point; The first injection machine is opened in the instruction that master controller sends startup to controller of plastic injection molding 1, after 10s, open the second injection machine successively, until open the 5th injection machine; When the first injection machine prepares die sinking, controller of plastic injection molding 1 sends instructions to master controller, and master controller sends driving device hand 1 pickup from the first injection machine in instruction to Manipulator Controller; Manipulator 1 to complete after pickup by Manipulator Controller feedback information to master controller, and the process of next batch by main controller controls first injection machine, meanwhile, manipulator 1 runs to inloading part place, the center of circle.After manipulator 1 arrives the center of circle and unloads the workpiece of the first injection machine, the second injection machine prepares die sinking, and manipulator 1 starts the second workpiece-taking of plastic jetting-moulding machine at once; By that analogy, complete the pickup of the 5th injection machine always, and constantly circulate, realize manipulator 1 continuously to 5 workpiece-taking of plastic jetting-moulding machine.
Above embodiment is to the citing of producing identical product and the injection machine of same model and carry out pickup and inloading part with a manipulator; in actual production; the injection machine of different model or its injection cycle of dissimilar process of producing product may be different; the time of die sinking and the time interval are also different; therefore the pickup of manipulator, inloading part speed also can change accordingly to some extent, but as long as with framework of the present invention and control method of the present invention carry out plastic processing production all should within protection scope of the present invention.
