Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for sequentially removing at least two workpieces from a production level of a processing machine by means of a removal device with a plurality of holding elements, wherein the workpieces are lifted by moving the removal device along a global vertical movement direction of the removal device, and wherein the workpieces are only put down after all of the at least two workpieces have been lifted.
  • the invention further relates to a method for removing workpieces from a processing machine by means of a removal device with at least two removal cycles.
  • the workpieces are sorted after production using removal devices.
  • the workpieces are picked up in a processing area of the processing machine and placed in a designated storage area of the removal device - usually next to the processing area.
  • a common procedure is that all workpieces are first manufactured by the processing machine and then removed by the removal device
  • the workpieces can be sorted individually (single removal) or in groups (multiple part removal).
  • EP 2 832 469 B1 discloses a device for handling several workpieces at the same time, which is suitable for multi-part removal.
  • Several holding elements can be moved relative to one another and positioned over different workpieces to be removed. By lowering the holding elements together, the workpieces can be picked up or lifted simultaneously by the removal device and then placed in the storage area. This generally allows sorting to take place more quickly.
  • the previously described multi-part removal carries the risk that workpieces will be displaced, which can delay or even completely prevent sorting. This has an adverse effect on process reliability.
  • the workpieces are removed individually by the removal device after they have been produced and are initially held by it. Once a certain number of workpieces have been picked up, the removal device is moved to the storage area.
  • Such a procedure for the sequential removal of several plate-like workpieces from a processing machine and a processing machine are known from EP 2 783 768 Bl and DE 10 2013 103 123 B4.
  • the workpieces produced by means of separating cutting are picked up by a removal device after production and transferred to a waiting area outside the processing area of the processing machine.
  • the method described is only suitable for sorting panels or workpieces with small dimensions while maintaining a predetermined sorting sequence from the outside of the panel to the inside of the panel. Otherwise there is a risk of a collision between the removal device and the panel. This greatly limits the flexibility of the method.
  • the object is achieved by a method for sequentially removing at least two workpieces from a production level of a processing machine by means of a removal device with a plurality of holding elements, wherein the workpieces are lifted by moving the removal device along a global vertical movement direction of the removal device, and wherein the workpieces are only put down after all of the at least two workpieces have been lifted, which is characterized in that a first workpiece is lifted by a first holding element and held in a first holding plane of the removal device, and then a second workpiece is lifted by a second holding element and held in a second holding plane of the removal device, wherein the second holding plane extends parallel to the first holding plane and wherein the first holding plane is further spaced from the production plane in the vertical direction than the second holding plane.
  • the workpieces are held in different holding planes of the removal device, with first workpieces being held in a first holding plane that is further away from a panel to be sorted (from which the workpieces were separated) than the second holding plane parallel to the first holding plane.
  • the removal device can advantageously be moved or displaced completely over a panel to be sorted, so that panels with large dimensions can also be sorted, in particular when there is a residual skeleton. It is also possible to remove or sort workpieces that are unstructured or arranged randomly in the panel or in any order in which the workpieces are removed.
  • the proposed method therefore has a particularly high level of flexibility.
  • the method according to the invention is suitable for removal devices with at least two holding elements.
  • the holding elements can preferably have grippers, which can be designed as magnetic grippers, vacuum grippers or electro-adhesion grippers, for example. This allows the method to run particularly quickly and flexibly.
  • the method is preferably used in a removal device that removes workpieces from the processing area of punching machines, laser cutting machines or punch-laser combination machines. The advantageous effects of the method are particularly evident here. Sequential removal according to the invention is understood here and below to mean a successive removal of the workpieces, with a sequence ending with the setting down of at least one of the picked-up workpieces.
  • no individual and/or all of the picked-up workpieces are set down between the lifting of the at least one first workpiece and the at least one second workpiece. This saves time for setting down the workpieces during removal and the sorting can be carried out more quickly overall.
  • the workpieces are lifted from the production level by moving the removal device in a global vertical movement direction.
  • the production level is to be understood in particular as the processing level of the processing machine when manufacturing the workpieces.
  • a holding plane can be understood as a plane with a predetermined distance (offset) from a reference point, in particular a frame, of the removal device. In other words, the holding plane is moved to the same extent when the removal device is moved in the global vertical movement direction.
  • the holding planes are designed to be parallel to one another and differ in their distance from the reference point of the removal device.
  • the first holding element is movable along a first local vertical movement direction relative to the frame of the removal device and the local vertical movement direction of the first holding element is fixed during contact with the first workpiece to be removed in the production plane.
  • a movement of the first holding element in the first local vertical movement direction relative to the frame is blocked after the first holding element has been placed on the first workpiece.
  • the local vertical movement direction of the holding elements is each set up by a pneumatic cylinder, wherein the local vertical movement direction of the pneumatic cylinder is mechanically clamped and/or pneumatically blocked. This allows the workpiece to be held without further actuation of the local vertical drive of the holding element, which can reduce the operating costs of the process.
  • a preferred development of the method for sequentially removing workpieces is one in which the second holding element can be moved along a second local vertical movement direction relative to the frame in a similar way to the first holding element, and in which the local vertical movement direction of the second holding element is fixed in the production plane during contact with the second workpiece to be removed.
  • movement of the second holding element in the second local vertical movement direction relative to the frame is blocked after the second holding element has been placed on the second workpiece. This allows the operating costs of the method to be reduced even further.
  • an offset of the holding planes to the frame and the other holding planes of the removal device can be set by a local vertical movement carried out on the holding elements. This allows the lifting of the workpieces by moving the entire removal device in the global vertical movement direction. For example, if a first workpiece is lifted by a first holding element, it is then held in a first holding plane with a predetermined offset. A second workpiece subsequently picked up is held in a second holding plane that has a larger offset to the frame. This can prevent a collision of the first workpiece held in the first holding plane with the second workpiece and/or the panel.
  • the local vertical movement direction of the holding elements is divided into sections, each section having a holding plane.
  • the sections can each extend vertically over the thickness of the workpieces to be picked up and a safety distance.
  • the sections are preferably adaptable to the thickness of the workpieces to be sorted. This allows the number of available holding levels to be determined before removal and the process to be adapted to the number of workpieces to be removed sequentially.
  • the workpieces picked up by the removal device can be deposited simultaneously in a deposit area of the removal device. This allows the depositing to take place particularly quickly and further reduces the total time required to sort the workpieces.
  • the parts are deposited sequentially.
  • the workpieces are deposited in the opposite order to the order in which they were removed.
  • the workpieces can be deposited one on top of the other on a common stack and/or a common transport box in the deposit area. This allows the deposited workpieces to be further processed particularly quickly.
  • the method for holding workpieces is designed in three or more, in particular at least ten, holding levels. This allows the time required for sorting to be further reduced.
  • at least one further first workpiece is lifted simultaneously to the first workpiece by at least one further first holding element of the removal device and is held in the first holding plane.
  • several first workpieces are lifted simultaneously and held in a common first holding plane. This allows the number of workpieces that can be removed to be increased and the time for sorting to be further reduced.
  • the several first workpieces are deposited together.
  • the plurality of second workpieces are deposited together, usually before or after the first workpiece or workpieces are deposited.
  • Another preferred embodiment of the method for sequentially removing workpieces is one in which a single workpiece is lifted by a plurality of holding elements of the removal device and held in one of the holding planes.
  • a workpiece whose dimensions are too large for a single holding element can be lifted with the assistance of another holding element and held in a holding plane.
  • the object underlying the invention is further achieved by a method for removing a plurality of workpieces from a processing machine by means of a removal device, having at least two removal cycles, each of which begins with aligning a holding element over a workpiece to be removed and ends after at least one workpiece has been deposited by assuming a waiting position, wherein at least one removal cycle contains the previously described method according to the invention for the sequential removal of workpieces.
  • the method according to the invention enables a particularly flexible response to the manufacturing process of the workpieces by the processing machine. For example, by selecting the method described above for sequential removal of the workpieces in at least one removal cycle, the manufacturing time can be accelerated if necessary, so that a larger number of workpieces can be manufactured during a peak load of the processing machine.
  • At least one removal cycle has a method for removing at least one workpiece by the removal device with only one holding plane.
  • this or these are deposited in the deposit area of the removal device. This allows the method for removing workpieces to be flexibly adapted to the production time of the workpieces by the processing machine.
  • each removal cycle has a depositing time which extends over the period from the lifting of at least one workpiece in the first holding level workpiece until it assumes a waiting position, wherein a workpiece to be removed is manufactured with a production time during one of the removal cycles, and wherein the method for sequentially removing the workpieces is used when the depositing time exceeds the production time of the workpiece to be removed.

  • the method for sequentially removing the workpieces can still be used.

  • the waiting position of the removal device is preferably located in the immediate vicinity of a workpiece to be removed, but outside of a production area occupied by the processing machine during the production of the workpiece. After the workpiece has been produced, the production area is released by the processing machine and the removal device can be moved to a position above the workpiece to be removed. This can further accelerate the absorption time for the workpieces.
  • a preferred development of the method for removing workpieces is one in which the previously described method for sequentially removing the workpieces is automatically continued if the depositing time exceeds the production time of another workpiece to be removed that is manufactured within the removal cycle.
  • the The fastest production process is determined and a decision is made as to whether the removal device places workpieces that have already been picked up in the storage area or whether the removal device waits in the immediate vicinity of another workpiece for its completion. This can prevent unwanted downtime of the processing machine while waiting for the finished workpiece to be removed.

This allows the costs to be kept low in a conventional process sequence with removal using only a first holding level 46. If necessary, for example when the processing machine is under high utilization, a faster removal of the workpieces 30, 32 by the removal device 10, 50 can be added in this way.
  • the previously described processes of the removal cycle 58 can be carried out in any order in a method for removing workpieces 30, 32.
  • the method has at least two, but in particular a plurality of of removal cycles 58. This allows the process to be adapted particularly flexibly to changing production processes.
