Definitions

  • the invention is based on a method for connecting thin plates lying one on top of the other according to the preamble of claim 1 and on an apparatus for carrying out this method according to the preamble of claim 19.
  • Such processes are used in industrial mass production, for example in automobile construction. Monitoring the quality of the connection points or ensuring certain quality requirements for such connection points is therefore of particular importance in this process.
  • the occurrence of defects in the implementation of this method must be recognized and eliminated as quickly as possible in order to keep the rejects and machine downtimes as short as possible.
  • Such defects can be caused by a material breakage, in particular the stamp or the die. It is important to recognize every faulty connection point in order to sort out the corresponding part or to repeat a connection process.
  • a criterion for the quality of the connection or its lack is the remaining thickness of the remaining material in the area of the joint.
  • quality assurance consists in monitoring the stamp force with regard to a permissible maximum value and in measuring the residual material thickness after the connection has been made. As a result, only a part of the deficiencies that may occur is recorded. The subsequent measurement of the residual material thickness is also cumbersome and time-consuming.
  • the method according to the invention with the characterizing features of claim 1 and the device according to the invention with the characterizing features of claim 19 has the advantage that defects occurring to a much greater extent are detected and that no separate measurement of the residual material thickness has to be carried out.
  • the pressing force that is to say the punch or die force, does not have to be taken up in the form of a measuring curve against the working stroke during the entire joining process. By measuring the pressing force at a given working stroke, every faulty connection is recognized. Monitoring is carried out by comparison with predetermined maximum and minimum values. If the pressing force is below the specified minimum value, for example stamp or die break is displayed; on the other hand, if it exceeds the specified maximum value, this indicates plates that are too thick or material that is too hard to be joined.
  • the stripping force required to strip the connected plates from the punch is also measured.
  • a lining of the material is determined, which is particularly important when using the invention in robot devices.
  • the pressing force is measured immediately after the squeezing process has ended. If the plates connected by the joining process at the joining point only have those for the Joining process characteristic residual floor thickness, the actual joining process is completed.
  • the pressing force assigned to the relevant working stroke is therefore particularly instructive for the joining process.
  • the measured forces are compared with a predetermined maximum value and a predetermined minimum value. If the measured value lies within the interval defined by the maximum and minimum value, the connection that has been made corresponds to the specified quality, but if it lies outside the interval, the connection is faulty. The comparison of the measured value with the interval is therefore sufficient to characterize the connection.
  • a signal when the predetermined maximum value is exceeded and when the predetermined minimum value is undershot, a signal is generated which can be used to control an optical and / or acoustic display device in order to draw attention to the presence of a defect.
  • the signal can also be used to control the interruption of the joining process, which can reduce waste and downtimes in production.
  • a signal is generated if the punch or the die does not cover the specified working stroke during the joining process.
  • the signal is advantageously a control signal with which an optical and / or acoustic display device is activated.
  • the signal can also be used to interrupt the joining process.
  • the maximum and minimum values are available in an electrical memory. This allows the values to be adjusted as required. There can also be several sets of values in the memory in order to quickly meet different requirements, for example when changing tools or materials.
  • the predetermined working stroke is available in a memory.
  • the working stroke can thus also be set using a computer having the memory.
  • the input of the values into the memory is protected. This ensures that changes can only be made by authorized persons.
  • the forces are measured at several joints at the same time, the values determined being evaluated by a common device.
  • the measured values determined are displayed optically.
  • the visual display makes it easier to distinguish between different types of errors so that the appropriate countermeasures can be taken.
  • the measured values determined can be saved in order to enable subsequent evaluation.
  • the measurement values are saved quality control, since the joining process can be checked in the event of later complaints.
  • the device according to the invention for carrying out the method with the features of claim 19 is advantageously adapted to the requirements of the method.
  • Force measuring devices are provided in the die holder, or in the punch holder, or on the stripper, preferably strain gauges or piezoelectric sensors are used, for example a piezo force transducer in the die holder, a piezo transverse dowel in the punch holder and a piezo measuring ring on the stripper.
  • a position detector ensures that the measurement is carried out exactly at the previously set working stroke.
  • the position indicator can advantageously be accommodated in a stamp stroke limiter.
  • the press 1 shown in FIG. 1 has a C-shaped frame 2, the lower part of which serves as a press table 3 on which the die holder 4 for the die 5 is arranged.
  • a stripping device 9 is arranged around the stamp holder 8 for stripping plates hanging on the stamp.
  • the punch 8 is moved up and down via a pressure cylinder 10 by a press drive 11 provided on the upper side of the C-shaped frame 2.
  • the die holder 4 there is a piezo force transducer with which the die force exerted by the die is determined.
  • a piezo transverse dowel 12 is provided in the stamp holder 7 to determine the stamping force exerted.
  • a piezo measuring ring 13 arranged around the pressure cylinder 10 is provided on the stripper 9 to determine the stripping force.
  • the pressure cylinder 10 has a position indicator 14, which activates the force measuring devices for a given stamp path to measure the stamp force and possibly the die force.
  • the position detector can also be included in the stroke limiter 15. The evaluation devices and the electrical connections between the evaluation devices and the measuring devices are not shown.
  • the diagram in FIG. 2 shows an example of the course of the stamp force as a function of the stamp path during a joining process.
  • the punch force increases steadily until the end of the joining process, but not linearly, but differently depending on the joining phase.
  • the various joining phases in the order of their sequence during the joining process, are first combined sinking and pushing through, followed by upsetting and widthing, then filling the upper contour of the die engraving, filling the ring channel of the die and finally backward extrusion to interlock the plate elements to be connected.
  • the stamp force is measured by the force measuring device on the value of the stamp path marked with I in the diagram, the measured value is marked with II.
  • An interval V is defined by the minimum value III and the maximum value IV.
  • the joining process that has taken place corresponds to the specified quality.
  • the measured value VI exceeds the predetermined maximum value IV, the joining is faulty. Possible causes in this case are too thick a sheet, too much sheet layer, too high sheet strength or wrong tool combination. A faulty joining is also present if the measured value VII falls below the minimum value III. In this case the breakage of the punch or die, a missing sheet position or wrong tool combination can be the cause. Another possibility of an incorrect joining is indicated by the point marked with VIII.
  • the position detector could not activate the force measuring device because the stamp did not cover the specified stamp path.
  • the cause can either be a press force that is set too low, a press stroke that has not been carried out completely, or the failure to reach the remaining floor thickness at the joining point.
  • the method according to the invention can also be used for methods with a rotary movement of the stamp.
  • the rotary movement is then determined by means of an angle encoder.
  • an acceleration measurement can also be carried out, for example by measuring the structure-borne noise generated during the stroke, in order to ensure compliance with a target value with a tolerance range. Accelerations that are too high lead to high material wear and an increased risk of tool breakage.
