Abstract
Description
- The present disclosure relates generally to the technical field of hot stamping, and in particular, to a multi-station continuous hot stamping production line and a method of operating the same.
- Hot stamping is a new technology for forming light-weight and high-strength parts. It has advantages of being able to produce stamped parts having small springback ratio, good fittability and high dimensional accuracy. Use of stamped car parts made of light-weight and high-strength sheet materials can help to improve safety performance of cars and reduce weight of cars, thereby contributing to achievement of light weight of cars.
- In a traditional hot stamping process, a preformed blank made of a light-weight and high-strength sheet material is first heated to a hot stamping temperature; then the heated blank is rapidly transferred to a die, immediately stamped, held at a pressure, and quenched to complete a structural transformation thereof; after that, the hot stamped part is cooled at room temperature, and finally cut by a laser to produce a product.
- A hot stamping production line generally comprises a feeding platform, a manipulator, a heating furnace, a transmission system, a press, and a laser cutting system. At present, hot stamping technologies studied in China are mainly used on ultra-high-strength sheet steel. Existing hot stamping production lines have the following problems. First, because a blank of ultra-high-strength sheet steel is usually heated in a roller hearth heating furnace, a large amount of heat can be lost in a shaft and in air, which may decrease the heating efficiency. Second, transferring process of the blank prolongs the production period, and meanwhile the hot blank is contacted with air, which results in great heat loss and oxidation (oxidation is particularly true of bare sheets that are widely used in China). An oxide coating formed on the sheet can easily wear a surface of the stamping die. Third, the quenched hot stamped part has an ultra-high strength and rigidity and is usually cut using a laser in practice which is very time-consuming and costing. For bare sheet hot stamping, a subsequent shot peening operation is required. In other countries, researches are also being done of hot stamping of aluminum alloy sheets, which, however, has same problems such as low heating efficiency, time-consuming hot blank transferring, rapid cooling of the hot blank, etc. It is urgent to solve these problems in order to improve production efficiency and achieve continuous, rapid, and stable production.
- The objective of the present disclosure is to provide a multi-station continuous stamping production line and method, which can continuously achieve rapid heating, stamping, pressure holding, shaving, punching, and quenching, and enhance production efficiency. Heating efficiency is improved, and a transferring process before stamping the hot blank is avoided. For a hot stamped part made of sheet steel, punching and shaving thereof at high temperature avoids an increase of cutting difficulty caused by formation of martensites at normal temperatures. Punching and shaving forces are decreased and desired cutting edges can be obtained.
- In order to achieve the above objective, the present disclosure provides the following technical solutions.
- A multi-station continuous hot stamping production line is provided. The production line sequentially comprises a feeding platform, a feeding robot, a pressing unit, a conveying robot, a quenching device, a discharging robot, and a conveyor belt. The feeding platform is used for placing a preformed blank. The feeding robot is used for transferring the preformed blank to the pressing unit. The pressing unit includes a heating device, a die device, and at least one press used for mounting the die device, wherein the heating device is used for wholly or partially heating the preformed blank to produce a hot blank, and the die device is used for stamping the hot blank, holding the hot blank at a certain pressure, and shaving and punching the hot blank, so as to produce a hot stamped part. The conveying robot is used for conveying the hot stamped part to the quenching device. The quenching device is used for quenching the hot stamped part, and the discharging robot is used for transferring a quenched workpiece to the conveyor belt.
- According to the above technical solution, the heating device is an electrical heating device which comprises a power supply, electrodes, and insulating members. The electrodes are mounted on the insulating members and are located at upper and lower sides of the preformed blank, and portions of the electrodes located at either the lower side or the upper side of the preformed blank are connected with the power supply. In a power-on state, the power supply, the electrodes, and the preformed blank together form an electrically conductive loop, and a current flows through the preformed blank and produces joule heat which heats the preformed blank.
- According to the above technical solution, the heating device is a laser heating device which comprises a laser head, and a laser that is connected with the laser head. The laser head is used to produce a high-energy laser beam to heat the preformed blank.
- According to the above technical solution, the heating device is an induction heating device which comprises an induction coil, and an iron core disposed in the induction coil. In a power-on state, the induction coil and the iron core produce an alternating magnetic field, and the preformed blank generates an induced current in presence of the alternating magnetic field and is thus heated.
- According to the above technical solution, the die device comprises a stamping-shaving punching progressive die, and provided is one press which is called press A. The stamping-shaving punching progressive die is mounted on the press A.
- According to the above technical solution, the die device comprises a hot forming die and a shaving punching die, and provided are two presses which are press B and press C, respectively. Both the hot forming die and the heating device are mounted on the press B, and the shaving punching die is mounted on the press C. The press B and the press C are provided therebetween with a robot.
- According to the above technical solution, the quenching device includes a quenching chamber, and a movable clamping member and a spraying member that are provided in the quenching chamber. The movable clamping member is mounted slidably at top of the quenching chamber and is used to transfer the hot stamped part grasped by the conveying robot to the discharging robot, and the spraying member is used to spray a quenching medium onto the hot stamped part in motion.
- According to the above technical solution, the quenching device includes a quenching bath which is provided therein with a quenching medium.
- According to the above technical solution, the preformed blank is made of a material selected from a group including, but not limited to, ultra-high-strength sheet steel, high-strength sheet steel, sheet metal of aluminum alloy, or sheet metal of titanium alloy.
- The present disclosure further provides a multi-station continuous hot stamping method, which comprises:
- a heating step S1, during which a feeding robot grasps a preformed blank from a feeding platform and places the preformed blank on a die device, and then the preformed blank is immediately heated wholly or partially by a heating device to a stamping temperature to produce a hot blank;
- a stamping and pressure holding step S2, during which the die device stamps the hot blank and holds the hot blank at a certain pressure for 2 s to 5 s, so as to obtain a hot stamped part;
- a shaving and punching step S3, during which the die device shaves and punches the hot stamped part;
- a quenching step S4, during which a conveying robot grasps the hot stamped part and transfers the hot stamped part to a quenching device in which the hot stamped part is quenched; and
- a cooling step S5, during which a discharging robot transfers a quenched hot stamped part to a conveyor belt and the hot stamped part is then cooled in air.
- The present disclosure achieves the following beneficial effects. By providing the heating device on the press, the preformed blank can be rapidly heated and then stamped at a same place, which achieves a high heating efficiency and speed. In this way, a transferring process before stamping of the hot blank and a transferring device are avoided. Besides, heat loss and air oxidation are reduced. This greatly improves energy utilization and heating efficiency, and ensures surface quality of the hot blank. In addition, in the present disclosure, punching and shaving of the hot stamped part are performed prior to pressure holding and quenching when the strength and rigidity of punching and shaving areas are low, by way of which punching and shaving forces can be reduced and service life of the punching shaving die can be prolonged, and at the same time, a laser cutting process is not used and the production cost is decreased. Furthermore, because a metal material can bear a larger shear force at high temperature due to its improved plasticity, punching and shaving at high temperature can ensure quality of the punching and shaving, and obtain desired cutting edges. Geometrical shapes and dimensional accuracy of hot stamped part can thus be ensured. While decreasing the production cost, the present disclosure also greatly shortens the production time, thereby improving production efficiency.
