Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for straightening three-dimensionally * bent workpieces and a straightening station belonging to them according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • the aim is to bend a workpiece as precisely as possible, in particular an elongated metal profile. This is usually done using a bending mold. These bending methods have become known from a number of patent applications which go back to the same applicant.
  • the second category of bending processes relates to bending deformations that work without a bending shape, where the workpiece is bent three-dimensionally in space without a bending template.
  • a number of patent applications are known which go back to the same applicant.
  • the advantage of this second category of bending processes is that they work with relatively little equipment and are therefore inexpensive. However, only a bending accuracy of, for example, + ⁇ 2 - 4 mm can be achieved.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of operating the three-dimensional bending, in particular of metal profiles, with high accuracy, using only a small amount of equipment shall be .
  • the invention proposes a method according to the subject matter of claim 1.
  • An essential feature of the method is that an automatic straightening station is now arranged at the exit of the bending machine, which is capable of realigning the three-dimensionally bent workpiece with high accuracy, so that one can work with a relatively inexpensive bending method, which in itself still increases does not lead to high bending accuracy.
  • Metal profiles of this type are increasingly used, for example, in modern motor vehicle construction and replace the conventional passenger cells which are welded together from individual sheet metal parts.
  • the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle is defined in the novel “space” frame profiles and therefore an extremely high level of accuracy is required for the three-dimensional bending of such metal profiles. It is therefore possible, for example, to work with a roll mandrel stretch-bending process that goes back to the same applicant, which is used without a bending mold and which is suitable for continuously processing metal profiles in a continuous process.
  • the final accuracy of the bent metal profiles which is still lacking in this method is then produced by the measuring-straightening station arranged at the exit of the bending station.
  • the three-dimensionally bent workpiece is clamped at at least two clamping points and directed between the hydraulic units arranged between the clamping points.
  • Such hydraulic units work according to the 3-point bending process, i.e. On the one side at the current bending point of the workpiece, two pistons of the piston-cylinder units rest at a distance from one another, while on the opposite side, in the space between the aforementioned pistons, a third piston presses on the workpiece and deforms the workpiece in the direction of the compressive force of this central piston .
  • the measuring-straightening station now consists of a large number of such 3-point bending units, such a 3-point situation, as previously described, not only being created with the help of directly opposite and adjacent hydraulic units, but also with the help of not hydraulic units lying directly next to each other.
  • a mother profile with the desired contour is first scanned by a contour measuring system arranged in the straightening station.
  • This contour measuring system can either be designed without contact or in contact with the workpiece. For reasons of simplification, it is preferred if the contour measuring system is based on the probe principle and one probe is arranged on each hydraulic unit. This saves space and machine effort, because the displacement of the piston of the respective hydraulic unit can now be easily detected with the probe.
  • the piston rods of the associated hydraulic units thus serve at the same time as probes, which are placed on the workpiece and detect the target contour of the nut profile.
  • inventive concept of the present invention also includes other measuring methods, such as optical measuring methods, which touch the target contour of the three-dimensionally bent workpiece without contact.
  • the profile to be straightened is moved into the straightening station and clamped in a second operation.
  • the actual contour of the workpiece is scanned with the same contour measuring system and the difference between the target contour and the actual contour is determined at any point on the workpiece. The number of measuring and alignment points depends on the required accuracy of the three-dimensionally bent workpiece. Then, depending on the correction value determined from the target and actual contour, the same hydraulic unit with which the actual and target contour was recorded at current points on the workpiece is adjusted.
  • Hydraulic units that can be freely assigned to each other form the previously described three-point straightening process, where in the space between two piston rods that are placed on the workpiece from one side, a third piston rod is pressed opposite the workpiece in the space between these two piston rods.
  • the measuring alignment system consists of a box frame; in this longitudinal rails are attached to accommodate ring rails.
  • the distance between these ring rails is infinitely variable in length and can be adjusted to each other with different axial dimensions (moved in parallel).
  • Slides can be freely rotated through 360 ° on these rings on rails. Usually there are two sledges on one common rail are arranged; if necessary, any more can be arranged. The longitudinal and circular adjustment is done manually (can also be done by motor).
  • a tensioning and transport system located in the longitudinal center receives a bent (spatially curved) bent part.
  • An imaginary neutral center axis + _ 0 serves to accommodate the bent part (at least 2 stops in + _ O axis).
  • the spatial contour is measured with reference to this zero axis. It is assumed that the curved contour corresponds exactly to the target dimension. You can measure with the linear units.
  • An AC hydraulic cylinder records the measured value, which takes the contour at the measuring points to the + _ zero axis. This results in a certain number of coordinate points in space. A spatial contour can thus be precisely determined.
  • the sensors on the linear units measure the difference between the actual and target status.
  • the computer now sets the linear cylinder in motion and uses a linear pressure to correct the curve at certain points on the contour of the curved profile.
  • 3-point bending is used in several sequences.
  • P, I,, 2, 2 ', 3, 3', 4.4 ' II and 1.2 like 4.1 and 4.2 have their own ring, ie I and II as well as 1.2 belong to a system, so also 4 'and 4.1 and 4.2.
  • Each linear unit therefore has an axis that can be controlled via CNC.
  • a handling system e.g. a three-dimensionally curved frame is placed on the extended clamping system and fastened (clamping jaws) in a predetermined spatial position. After inserting the frame, measurement and straightening begin immediately.
  • the bent part After straightening, the bent part is brought to the export station and transported on by another handling system.
  • the clamping system moves back into the insertion station and picks up the next bent part in time with the bending process.
  • the AMRIS consists of one or more straightening units.
  • a straightening unit consists of 3 linear measuring straightening stamps per side.
  • Measuring pressure 2 belongs together counter pressure i '+ 3
  • control means that the system can be varied continuously along the longitudinal axis, e.g.
  • Measuring pressure 3 belongs together Counter pressure 2 '+ 4'
