As shown in fig. 4, the specific description is as follows:
s211: the control system calculates the theoretical paper stack height by setting parameters and a coordinate conversion formula, and the clamp descends to the position 5mm-1000mm away from the paper stack height;
S212: the control system acquires the value of the ranging sensor at the moment, checks whether the actual value and the theoretical value are within the error range of 0.1-300mm, and if the error is within the range, the height of the clamp is further reduced, and the clamp continues to descend to the position 0.1-290mm away from the height of the paper stack;
If the error between the actual value and the theoretical value is greater than half of the height of the paper stack, the clamp is sequentially shifted to the X Y direction and checked in consideration of the possibility that the light does not fall on the uppermost paper stack, if the check is passed, the next step is continued, otherwise, the alarm is stopped.

The purpose of the translation is to check errors in the setup data and the actual data, ensuring that the ranging position is in the upper surface of the stack to be disassembled rather than in the gap between the stacks (one stack of sheets is listed on one bracket, each time the clamp grips a stack of sheets).
S222: the clamp translates the length of the material type by 1/2, the ranging value is obtained, whether the actual value and the theoretical value are in the error range or not is checked, and if the checking is successful, the step S213 is continued; otherwise, the machine is stopped in an alarm mode.
Further, the order of translation 1/2 width and 1/2 length in S221 and S222 may be interchanged.
S213: the clamp is horizontally moved, and the edge of the paper stack is detected through the instant mutation of the ranging value of the ranging sensor, so that the contour coordinates of the edge of the paper stack in the XY direction are preliminarily obtained;
Wherein, the profile coordinates of the edge of the paper stack in the XY direction are preliminarily obtained, the method comprises the following processing steps:

(single or multiple X edge coordinates can be found in a pass method)
S2132: the robot moves to the Y-shaped similar limit position of the support shooting placement, the jump of the ranging sensor is detected in the moving process, if the jump exceeds 1/4-1 set layer height, the Y edge is found, the X direction is offset by 1/10-1/2 material width/length, the robot moves into the range of the support shooting paper stack, the jump is detected, if the jump exceeds 1/4-1 set layer height and the jump is within the range of 0.1-300mm with theoretical error, the Y edge is found for the second time.

The coordinates of the first stack of sheets are calculated from the sheet stack profile data, the robot is controlled to a position where the measurement starts, as shown in fig. 6, and then the coordinates of the edges of the individual stacks are measured according to the principle of triangulation. The moving direction of the clamp is the length direction of the paper to be unstacked, the laser irradiation position is the center position of the paper in the width direction, the edge of the paper stack is detected when the value is suddenly changed according to the value change of the distance measuring sensor obtained in real time, and the bottom coordinates of the paper stack are calculated through a trigonometric function relation.

S43: the clamp is rotated 0.01-10 degrees depending on the actual situation, thereby increasing the pressure between the push-pull 4 and the target stack. The rotation angle is required to be specifically tested according to the related information such as the clamp assembly process, the shape of the paper stack to be disassembled, the position of the paper stack to be disassembled in the whole paper stack and the like.
