The blanking member 95 moves the receiving basket 300 out of the receiving device 100, so that the workpiece 200 can be cleaned or processed.
It is understood that in other embodiments, the plurality of workpieces 200 carried by the carrying mechanism 40 may also directly enter the processing procedure, and the first conveying mechanism 50, the transferring mechanism 60, the second conveying mechanism 70, and the loading and unloading mechanism 90 may also be omitted.
The material receiving device 100 scans and identifies the workpiece 200 on the conveying mechanism 20 by using the scanning mechanism 80, so that the controller can respond quickly to control the transfer member 30 to grasp the workpiece 200 quickly and transfer the workpiece 200 to the bearing mechanism 40, thereby improving the operation efficiency.
In addition, other modifications within the spirit of the invention may occur to those skilled in the art, and such modifications are, of course, included within the scope of the invention as claimed.
