After the system is electrified, the industrial personal computer is communicated with the controller and is connected with the servo system, and the industrial personal computer is communicated with the industrial camera and is connected with the industrial camera.
And the industrial personal computer reads a register with servo motor position information stored in the motion controller to obtain the position information of the truss robot after the system is electrified, and then executes the original point returning operation to reset the whole servo system.
The user selects the specification of the stacked transformer, and different databases are called for matching according to different specifications selected by the user, wherein the databases comprise the specific size of the silicon steel sheet of a certain type of transformer and the path information of automatic stacking operation.
Then, the truss robot moves to the upper part of the feeding area, a position photo of the feeding area is shot through the industrial camera assembly and is sent to the industrial personal computer, the industrial personal computer performs image processing and analysis on the photo, and the distance difference between the truss manipulator and the silicon steel sheet to be taken is calculated, wherein the specific conversion process is as follows:
Because each time the truss manipulator is moved to a fixed position above the bin, only the Z-axis direction changes according to the value of the displacement sensor, the actual coordinates corresponding to the center point of the photograph after each industrial camera imaging can be determined.
According to the deflection angle of the upper edge line of the silicon steel sheet and the horizontal line, the deflection amount required by the rotation shaft of the truss manipulator can be calculated, after the circle center coordinates of the circle on the silicon steel sheet are calculated, the deviation dx and dy (taking pixels as units) of the coordinates of the center point of the photo can be calculated, and because the actual distance of each pixel is fixed, the actual offset distance can be calculated according to the offset pixels, and the distance is the offset amount required to be moved by the X axis and the Y axis of the truss manipulator, so that the position of the silicon steel sheet under the world coordinate system is obtained.
Under the condition that the world coordinates of the silicon steel sheet to be taken are calculated, the industrial personal computer controls the manipulator to move to the position right above the silicon steel sheet, and as the distance sensor can ensure the vertical distance of the manipulator on the Z axis, the industrial personal computer controls the manipulator to descend according to the value of the distance sensor, and after the vacuum chuck contacts the material sheet, the vacuum chuck is required to generate negative pressure at the moment, so that the silicon steel sheet is sucked, namely, the industrial personal computer controls the vacuum generator to generate vacuum through controlling the electromagnetic valve of the pneumatic loop, so that the vacuum chuck can suck the silicon steel sheet.
Because the path of the placement area is fixed, each piece is planned in advance in the placement position, the truss manipulator sucks the silicon steel sheet and then moves to the fixed position of the placement area, no other positioning calculation is needed at this time, only path information which is set in advance is needed to be read out from a database, after the truss manipulator moves to the fixed discharging area, the Z axis of the truss manipulator descends by a proper distance, then the industrial personal computer breaks the negative pressure of the vacuum chuck through controlling the vacuum breaking valve of the pneumatic circuit, and the vacuum chuck can release the silicon steel sheet, so that the stacking of one piece is completed.
The iron cores of a transformer are stacked together, a layer of five iron cores are respectively a left column, a middle column, a right column, an upper yoke and a lower yoke, and truss manipulators sequentially identify and grasp the iron cores in the five groups of silicon steel sheets until the stacking of the whole transformer is completed.
A description will now be made of a database of the truss robot moving path:
In order to improve the stacking efficiency of the whole system, the positions of five groups of silicon steel sheets in a feeding area are relatively orderly, the left column material sheets are placed on the left side of the stacking table, the middle column material sheets are placed in the middle, the right column material sheets are placed on the rightmost side, the upper yoke material sheets and the lower yoke material sheets are placed on the upper side and the lower side of the stacking table, because the visual field of an industrial camera is limited, only a few local information can be shot each time, truss manipulators are required to move to different positions in the feeding area when different material sheets are grabbed, based on the fact, a database when the material sheets are grabbed is arranged, five groups of path information are stored in the database, the positions of the five groups of material sheets in actual coordinates correspond to pulse quantities required to be moved by the four shafts respectively, and each time the truss manipulators can move to the upper side of the corresponding material sheets in the feeding area after reading the path information in the database, so that the industrial camera can take photos at the moment, and therefore the information can be identified and grabbed.
After each time the silicon steel sheet is grabbed, the placement position of the silicon steel sheet is fixed, the database also comprises a group of placement paths, and as each layer of the transformer iron core is provided with five silicon steel sheets, five groups of path information are shared in the placement path database and are in one-to-one correspondence with the path information in the grabbing database, and the truss manipulator can place the silicon steel sheet to the designated position after reading the path information in the placement database.
Correspondingly, an explanation will be made on the identification of the silicon steel sheet by the industrial camera:
The silicon steel sheet is placed in a static manner in a feeding area, the dimension of the longest silicon steel sheet is about 1280x250x0.2mm (length x width x thickness), and two center holes and one edge of the silicon steel sheet are selected as positioning features. The visual field range of the industrial camera is fixed at 500mm, each pixel is about 0.125mm, the precision requirement is met, and the distance between two central holes of the silicon steel sheet with the length of 1280mm is 700mm, so that two industrial cameras are required to be arranged, one is in charge of a left hole, and the other is in charge of a right hole and a right edge line.
The deflection angle between the upper edge line of the silicon steel sheet and the horizontal line is found, the deflection required by the rotation shaft of the truss manipulator can be calculated, and after the center coordinates of the center circle of the silicon steel sheet are found, the deviation dx and dy (taking pixels as units) of the center point coordinates of the picture can be calculated.
Because the silicon steel sheets have a plurality of different types and the silicon steel sheets of different types have different lengths and widths, whether the types are correct or not needs to be determined before the truss manipulator grabs the silicon steel sheets.
In the upper graph, the width of the silicon steel sheet can be calculated according to the distance from the center of a circle to the upper edge line, the world coordinate of the left hole can be calculated in an imaging photo of a left industrial camera, the length of the silicon steel sheet can be obtained according to the coordinates of the left hole and the right hole, and the model of the silicon steel sheet can be determined after the length and the width of the silicon steel sheet are obtained.
The control module described above may be further explained as follows:
The control system of the automatic lamination machine mainly comprises an upper computer system and a lower computer system, wherein the lower computer system realizes the control of each motion axis of the rectangular coordinate robot, and the communication with the upper computer and the processing of alarm signals, and the upper computer system mainly comprises a man-machine interaction interface, a communication module, an initialization, an image acquisition, an automatic module, an alarm module, a manual module, a database and other program modules, and the functions of each module are firstly explained.

The system comprises two industrial personal computers, wherein the two industrial personal computers are in communication with each other, the industrial personal computers are in communication with the controller, and the industrial personal computers are in communication with the industrial camera. When the system is started, the left industrial personal computer starts lamination, the right industrial personal computer is in a standby state, when the lamination of the left industrial personal computer is completed, a corresponding instruction is sent to the right industrial personal computer, the left industrial personal computer is in a stop standby state, the right industrial personal computer starts lamination, and the two industrial personal computers perform lamination work in a reciprocating manner. The communication between the industrial personal computer and the controller is based on the expansion memobus protocol of TCP, and the motion control of the motor is realized by sending an instruction to the MP3300 controller, setting a motion mode and the like. The industrial personal computer communicates with the industrial camera through a network interface, and photographing, storage and other actions are completed by calling an API function of the camera.
(3) And the database module considers that the types of different transformers are different, and the required specifications of the silicon steel sheets are different, so that a set of database is designed for the transformers with different types, the database stores the information of the silicon steel sheets with corresponding types, the types of the transformers are selected before lamination, and then the system matches the information obtained after the photo is processed with the information in the corresponding database. Considering the flexibility of lamination paths, when one lamination machine breaks down, the other lamination machine needs to independently complete lamination work, so that different paths are needed to meet the demands of users, a plurality of sets of different paths are planned for each lamination machine and stored in a database, and users can select proper paths to complete lamination work according to own demands.
(4) The manual operation module is provided with manual operation functions in consideration of early debugging and later maintenance, and in a manual mode, each function can be independently tested, and a user can realize the functions of photographing of an industrial camera, opening and closing of an electromagnetic valve, click-through of a motor, fast forward of the motor and the like through buttons on a touch screen.
(5) And the automatic operation module is used for automatically stacking the system after the user selects the type information and the path information of the transformer, and the specific flow chart is shown in fig. 6. After the system is electrified, the left industrial personal computer and the right industrial personal computer are communicated with the MP3300 controllers respectively, the control system reads a register of the position information of the servo motor stored in the MP3300 controllers to obtain the position information of the servo motor after the system is electrified, then the servo system is reset by executing the original point operation, then the control system operates a path in a database according to path information selected by a user and model information of a transformer, when the system operates above a feeding area, the system controls an industrial camera to photograph, processes a photo and matches with the model of a silicon steel sheet in the database, if the silicon steel sheet is needed, the position information is automatically compensated and grasped, if the silicon steel sheet is not needed, a voice alarm is sent out, after the manipulator grasps the needed silicon steel sheet, the servo motor is placed at a designated position according to the information in the path database, after the left industrial personal computer completes the stacking of three sheets, the right industrial personal computer sends an instruction, the right industrial personal computer starts to operate the right industrial personal computer to complete the operation of the left industrial personal computer after the left industrial personal computer completes the stacking of the three sheets according to the mode, and the whole transformer stacking system is completed until the whole transformer stacking platform is completed.
