Detailed Description
For the purpose of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more apparent, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the application without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the application.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present application provides a mandrel bow calibration system, which includes a rod calibration device, an intelligent robot, and a central control device, where the rod calibration device includes a rod calibration lathe, a torch movably disposed on the rod calibration lathe, and a rod calibration support, and the central control device is connected with the intelligent robot, the torch, and the rod calibration support and is used for: determining a cutting position on the mother rod according to the selected, input or received outer diameter and length of the mother rod which is finished to be extended and the requirement of the next working procedure; controlling an intelligent robot to cut a core rod from a mother rod, measuring the length, the outer diameter and the bow degree of the core rod to form a bow degree distribution curve in the length direction of the core rod, marking the position of an over-standard point and the over-standard value, and transferring the core rod to a rod calibrating device; and controlling the bar calibrating device to straighten the super standard point.
According to the system provided by the embodiment of the application, the central control equipment determines the cutting position on the mother rod according to the outer diameter and the length of the mother rod which are finished to extend and the requirement of the next working procedure, then the intelligent robot is used for cutting, the length, the outer diameter and the bow degree of the core rod are measured, so that a bow degree distribution curve in the length direction of the core rod is formed, the bow degree distribution curve is compared with a bow degree threshold value, whether the standard is exceeded or not can be obtained, if the standard is exceeded, the position of an exceeding standard point and the exceeding standard value are marked, and finally the standard value is sent to the rod calibrating device, and the straightening treatment of each exceeding standard point is realized by controlling a blast lamp and a rod calibrating bracket of the rod calibrating device. Because the central control equipment is adopted for whole-process control, the interference of human factors on the product quality is eliminated, the core rod is accurately straightened, the processing efficiency is improved, and the hidden danger that the core bag concentricity of the subsequent optical fiber preform is scrapped due to the fact that the bow degree of the core rod exceeds the standard is solved.
Referring to fig. 1, the rod calibrating device comprises a rod calibrating lathe, a blast lamp and a rod calibrating support, wherein the blast lamp and the rod calibrating support can move on the rod calibrating lathe, the oxyhydrogen flame flow, the burning time and the blast lamp position of the blast lamp can be controlled by using central control equipment, the height of the rod calibrating support and the position of the rod calibrating support can be controlled, the exceeding point is burnt and softened by using the blast lamp, and the height of the rod calibrating support is adjusted to realize the adjustment of the bow degree of the exceeding point.
Referring to fig. 1, the intelligent robot includes a movable X-axis calliper and a movable Y-axis calliper, so as to measure a mandrel, the mechanical arm can cut a mother rod and clamp the mandrel, and in the transferring process, the mechanical arm can put the mandrel into a storage barrel.
The requirement of the next process is specifically determined by actual production, for example, the length of the mandrel required by the next process is 1500mm, the outer diameter is required to be 40mm plus or minus 0.5mm, then the region with the qualified outer diameter is found from one end of the mother rod which is finished to extend, and the length of 1500mm is cut off.
The central control device can obtain the outer diameter and the length of the mother rod which are finished to extend and the requirement of the next working procedure in various modes.
For example, the central control device has a display screen, on which mother sticks of various common specifications and the next process requirement can be displayed, and the user only needs to select.
For another example, the central control device has a display screen, and the display screen has an input box, so that the user only needs to input the outer diameter and the length of the mother rod which have been extended and the next process requirement in the input box.
For another example, the central control device is connected to an extension tower and an OVD device, the extension tower sends the outer diameter and length of the mother rod after extension to the central control device, the OVD device sends the next process requirement to the central control device, and the central control device only needs to receive the data.
For the mother rods with the same specification, the position of the bow degree exceeding the standard point and the exceeding standard value of the core rod obtained by extending the extension tower under the same condition are usually fixed, so that the technological parameters of the rod calibration when the rod calibration device is calibrated to be qualified can be determined in advance.
After one straightening, the bow of the mandrel should generally be acceptable, but for greater safety, in some preferred embodiments the central control device is also configured to: when the bar calibrating device straightens all the exceeding points, the intelligent robot is controlled to take down the core rod from the bar calibrating device, the bow degree of the core rod is measured again to confirm qualification, if disqualification, the exceeding point position and the exceeding value are marked, and the core rod is sent to the bar calibrating device again to straighten again.
When the mandrel is qualified after multiple alignments, which is an issue with the current alignment process parameters, the subsequent mandrel may be qualified after multiple alignments, and in order to improve efficiency, in some preferred embodiments, the central control device is further configured to: when the qualified core rod is confirmed after the core rod is subjected to multiple straightening, combining the rod correcting process parameters of the rod correcting device during multiple working to obtain updated rod correcting process parameters, so that the updated rod correcting process parameters of the next core rod during the straightening can be qualified after one-time straightening; the rod calibrating process parameters comprise oxyhydrogen flame flow of a blast burner, burning time, position of the blast burner, height of a rod calibrating bracket and position of the rod calibrating bracket.
For example, each time the firing time is different from one another, the other parameters are the same, and the firing time is added during the merging process, and then the other parameters remain unchanged as the firing time of the updated calibration process parameters.
In the process of straightening the core rod by using the rod straightening device, a large amount of data is generated, and is not utilized, so that in order to fully utilize the large data to guide the rod straightening process, the process improvement is performed, the effect and the efficiency of straightening the core rod are improved, and in some preferred embodiments, the system further comprises a storage unit; the central control device is also connected to the storage unit and is configured to:
storing the length and the outer diameter of the core rod before straightening, the bow curve degree distribution curve before straightening and after straightening, and the rod calibrating process parameters of the rod calibrating device during each working to a storage unit, wherein the rod calibrating process parameters comprise oxyhydrogen flame flow of a spray lamp, burning time, the position of the spray lamp, the height of a rod calibrating bracket and the position of the rod calibrating bracket;
the central control device is also for:
invoking historical data in a period of time of a storage unit, and analyzing bow degree distribution curves before and after straightening of a mandrel in the historical data to obtain bow degree change conditions;
based on the length and the outer diameter before the mandrel straightening and the bow degree change condition in the historical data, the rod correcting process parameters of the rod correcting device are adjusted.
For example, as an example, the central control device analyzes the history data of the last several months, finds that the change amplitude of bow curve of the near two-week mandrel is reduced by 0.2 before and after the straightening compared with the previous month, further analyzes the outer diameter of the near two-week mandrel before the straightening, finds that the average outer diameter of the near two-week mandrel is reduced by 2mm compared with the previous month, and feeds back to the engineer that the height of the mandrel holder is unchanged compared with the previous month, and finds that the mandrel holder is not fully contacted with the mandrel during the mandrel straightening process, so that the bow curve is not effectively calibrated. And according to the situation, the corresponding relation between the height of the rod correcting bracket and the outer diameter of the core rod is adjusted, and the subsequent bow degree of the core rod is effectively controlled.
Therefore, the preferred embodiment utilizes the idea of big data analysis, can continuously improve the technological level of equipment through accumulation and feedback of data, and can calibrate the bow degree of the core rod more efficiently and accurately through improving the rod calibrating technological parameters of the rod calibrating device.
In the process of extending a mother rod by using the extension tower, a large amount of data is generated, the data is not utilized generally, and in the process of extending the mother rod, the bow degree of the mother rod is influenced by the abnormal extension process parameters of the extension tower, so that the bow degree of the core rod is influenced finally, and in order to fully utilize the large data to guide the extension process, process improvement is performed, the yield of the core rod which is directly qualified after extension is improved, and in some preferred embodiments, the system further comprises a storage unit; the central control device is also connected with the storage unit and the extension tower and is used for:
forming a bow distribution curve of the mother rod which is completed to extend based on the bow distribution curve before the core rod is straightened;
storing the bow distribution curve of the mother rod after the extension and the extension process parameters of each start of the extension tower into a storage unit, wherein the extension process parameters comprise extension speed, oxyhydrogen gas flow and furnace body temperature;
the central control device is also for:
invoking historical data in a period of time of a storage unit, and analyzing a bow degree distribution curve of the mother rod which is completed to extend in the historical data to obtain a bow degree change condition;
based on the bow change, the extension process parameters in the historical data are analyzed to find out abnormal conditions and correct the abnormal conditions.
For example, the central control device may be used to feed back the bow profile of the mandrel under the current extension process parameter to the engineer in combination with the historical data during a period of time, as shown in fig. 2, where the bow profile of the mandrel produced by a plurality of the same extension process parameter during a period of time is shown, the abscissa is the position coordinate of the measurement point on the mandrel, the ordinate is the bow, and it is known that the bow of the mandrel generally increases from left to right.
Continuing the analysis, it was found that the flow rate of oxyhydrogen gas fluctuates during the extension process, and as shown in fig. 3, the fluctuation of the flow rate of oxyhydrogen gas gradually increases with the lapse of production time, and the abscissa is the production time, and the ordinate is the flow rate of oxyhydrogen gas.
Therefore, the fluctuation of the flow of the oxyhydrogen gas can influence the heating degree of the core rod, thereby influencing the extension precision of the core rod. Further, correlation analysis is performed on the flow fluctuation of oxyhydrogen gas and the bow degree of the core rod, from the correlation analysis, according to a regression model, a scatter diagram between the actual value +0.1 of the bow degree of the core rod and a predicted value is shown in fig. 4, fig. 4 is a fitting diagram of the actual value and the predicted value, the abscissa is a position coordinate of a measuring point on the core rod, and the ordinate is the bow degree, and as can be seen from fig. 4, the distribution trend of the actual value and the predicted value of 6 samples is approximately the same, wherein the distribution range of the two samples is concentrated, and the fluctuation range of the predicted value is smaller and is between 0.075. The three sample predictors are more scattered.

1 6.93E-05 0.006646576 0.547836 78
2 1.23E-05 0.002804283 0.874289 74

6 2.61E-05 0.004058855 0.823351 74
The mean square error of 6 samples in the analysis is smaller, the MSE value is smaller, and the prediction model description experimental data has very good accuracy.
And (3) the engineer decides to calibrate the MFC (mass flow controerl flowmeter) precision of the extension tower according to the analysis result of the big data, controls flow fluctuation, and finally verifies that improvement is effective.
As another example, the central control device may feed back to the engineer the product bow profile of the extension process in combination with historical data over a period of time.
Referring to fig. 5 and 6, according to the trend chart of the historical data, the bow degree distribution of the first production line and the third production line has opposite trend.
Referring to fig. 5, a curve of the bow degree of the core rod is produced in a certain period of time in the first production line, the abscissa is the position of the measuring point on the core rod, the ordinate is the bow degree, and for the first production line, the bow degree of the core rod increases with the increase of the extension length.
Referring to fig. 6, the curve of the bow degree of the core rod produced by the production line No. three in the same period of time is marked by the position of the measuring point on the core rod, the curve of the bow degree is marked by the ordinate, and the curve of the core rod is decreased along with the increase of the extension length for the production line No. three.
Referring to fig. 7 and 8, the extension length of the multiple lines is compared to the bow mean. Wherein fig. 7 is a graph showing the bow curves of a plurality of production core rods, the abscissa represents the position coordinates of the measuring points on the core rods, the ordinate is the bow curve, fig. 8 is a box graph showing the bow curves of a plurality of production core rods, the abscissa is different production lines, and the ordinate is the average value of the bow curves of all the core rods of the production lines.
According to the analysis, an engineer is reminded to analyze the equipment difference between the first production line and the third production line to find out the root of the problem.
For another example, the central control apparatus combines historical data in a period of time, and feeds back to the engineer that the bow degrees of 6 recently produced products at 300 positions are generally larger, as shown in fig. 9, and is a bow degree distribution curve of a produced mandrel in a certain production line in the same period of time, where the abscissa is a position mark of a measurement point on the mandrel, and the ordinate is the bow degree.
Meanwhile, the central control device calls up the curves of the extension speed, the furnace body temperature, the oxyhydrogen gas flow rate and the like in the recent production process, and observes abnormal conditions, as shown in fig. 10, 11 and 12, wherein fig. 10 is the extension speed distribution curve in each start-up production process when a certain production line is used for producing a core rod in the same period, the abscissa is the production time, the ordinate is the extension speed, fig. 11 is the furnace body temperature distribution curve in each start-up production process when a certain production line is used for producing the core rod in the same period, the abscissa is the production time, the ordinate is the furnace body temperature, fig. 12 is the oxyhydrogen flame flow distribution curve in each start-up production process when a certain production line is used for producing the core rod in the same period, and the abscissa is the oxyhydrogen flame flow rate.
Fitting analysis was performed on the curves of the relevant parameters, first excluding the effect of the gas flow, since the gas flow of 6 samples did not have any fluctuations.
Secondly, the influence of the furnace body temperature on the bow degree is researched, the furnace body temperature change curves of 6 samples are the same, the equipment state is not abnormal, the corresponding furnace body temperature at the 300mm position is relatively high and possibly an important factor for influencing the bow degree, but the bow degree of the rear section of the 6 samples is greatly different, the furnace body temperature is not different, the fitting performance is poor, and therefore, the prediction fit of the furnace body temperature on the bow degree influence is inaccurate.
Finally, the influence of the extension speed on the bow degree is studied, and the extension speed at the position of 300mm from the extension start is generally higher in order to obtain higher glass utilization rate due to the process characteristics of the extension process, so that the glass is heated in a heating furnace for relatively short time, is less influenced by equipment and is easier to maintain the original state, and in theory, the bow degree is possibly larger.
Fitting analysis is carried out on the extension speed distribution and the bow degree distribution to obtain the following table:
