in the first step, in the moving process of the carrying gripping apparatus, the distance between the carrying gripping apparatus and the workpiece is detected through the distance measuring sensor (22), so that whether the carrying gripping apparatus reaches a photographing position or not is judged, and when the distance measuring sensor (22) detects that the carrying gripping apparatus reaches the photographing position, the workpiece is photographed through the visual camera unit (5) on the visual frame (1);
in the second step, in the process that the piston rod (9) of the cylinder (8) with the lock pushes the sucker (11) to move towards the direction close to the workpiece, the vision camera unit (5) shoots to reflect whether the sucker (11) reaches the pick-up position, and when the sucker (11) reaches the pick-up position, the piston rod (9) of the cylinder (8) with the lock stretches out to the right position.
