Based on the structural characteristics of the automatic sorting and carrying system, an application example is provided below, wherein the automatic sorting and carrying system is applied to steel plate carrying in ship manufacturing.
Firstly, the steel plate after cutting is placed on a working platform formed between the left guide rail and the right guide rail, and the position of the steel plate is adjusted. The X/Y axis direction of the steel plate is parallel to the X/Y axis direction of the operation platform as much as possible, and the upper left corner of the steel plate is located at the zero point of the physical coordinate of the operation platform.
Opening a sorting and carrying control program on an industrial personal computer, issuing an instruction to an equipment PLC (programmable logic controller) by the control program to realize the control of the equipment, firstly importing and analyzing a GEN (generic information) file cut by a steel plate, and acquiring process information such as part outline information, part number, part name and the like from the GEN file; although the barycentric coordinates of the parts can be analyzed from the GEN file, the barycentric coordinates of some parts are not on the parts, the barycentric coordinates are not suitable for being used as part grabbing positions, and parts are irregular, so that the parts can not be grabbed correctly. Therefore, in the embodiment, matching fitting is performed according to the part profile and the gripping device profile. Specifically, the matching and fitting process preferably adopts the following algorithm: acquiring part contour information, part coordinate position information and part gravity center coordinate position by analyzing the GEN file; calculating a plurality of suction head coordinate positions of the magnetic suction device, and calculating whether the gravity center coordinate position exists in the part outline or not; if the gravity center is in the part contour, continuously calculating the optimal grabbing angle passing through the gravity center coordinate, and automatically calculating the position coordinate of part grabbing; if the gravity center of the part is positioned outside the part outline, the optimal grabbing coordinate position of the part is automatically calculated by calculating the intersection line of the gravity center passing line and the part outline. According to the method, the field cutting process file, namely the GEN file, is used as the drive for the first time, so that the automatic sorting of the parts is realized, the automatic process is realized in the whole process, and the manual operation is avoided.
And after the control program acquires related information, namely the part grabbing coordinate position information, the related information is converted into equipment coordinate information, and the automatic sorting and carrying system is started to carry out pre-sorting and carrying. And displaying a CAD pattern of the steel plate to be transported on a screen of the industrial personal computer, moving a cursor between the positions of the grabbing coordinate points of the parts according to the transporting sequence of the parts, simulating the action of actual part sorting and transporting operation, and sorting and transporting the parts according to the actual operation flow direction. In the process of simulating and demonstrating a computer screen, if a conveying position of a certain part is found to be wrong, if abnormal conditions such as exceeding the part conveying operation range of equipment and the like occur, the system gives an alarm to prompt error information, at the moment, an upper-layer interface is returned, and the steel plate is placed again.
After the pre-sorting and carrying are correct, the automatic sorting and carrying system can be started to operate.
The PLC drives the X-axis motor 213, the Y-axis motor 223 and the R-axis motor 242 according to the instructions of the industrial personal computer, so that the magnetic suction device 12 sequentially runs to the design position of each part, and then drives the Z-axis motor 233 to contact the magnetic suction device 12 with the part to grab the part. After the parts are grabbed, the R-axis motor 242 drives the parts to rotate, adjust the postures of the parts, sort and convey the parts to a designated position.
After the sorting and carrying operation is completed, the whole system returns to the initial position to prepare for the next part sorting and carrying operation.
The automatic sorting device can automatically sort and carry, after the release position of the parts is appointed, the device automatically calculates the grabbing coordinate position of each part from the process file through the control program without manual intervention, then converts the grabbing coordinate position of the parts into the equipment coordinate position, and appoints the sorting device to automatically sort each part. Whole process can realize unmanned operation, and the device sorts each part to the assigned position, and algorithm can be appointed to the simultaneous control procedure, carries out the route of part letter sorting and optimizes, realizes the route optimization of a plurality of parts transport according to the actual need of production, realizes the time optimal of letter sorting transport, perhaps the best grade of part collocation.
