Visual system
FANUC iR Vision 2DVVision system: This vision system consists of a The 2D camera on the claw completes the visual data collection. This vision system is used as a positioning method for accurate grasping of the workpiece to be processed, eliminating the need for mechanical pre-positioning fixtures that must usually be used to meet the accurate grasping of robots. It has high flexibility, making it very easy to achieve multiple operations on the machining center. Mixed production of products.
FANUC iR Vision 3DLVision system: This vision system consists of a The 3D Laser Sensor on the ground completes the visual data collection. The vision system solves the problem of the change of the feeding position of the workpiece with a deviation in the positioning surface. Since the workpiece to be processed is a blank, after the robot grabs the workpiece, the position of the positioning hole for feeding will change, and even the flatness of the workpiece during feeding will also change. This technology can automatically compensate for position changes and achieve high-precision feeding.
3DVisual positioning technology: applied to robots loading materials to machine tools. Camera installation position: fixed on the 3DL vision bracket. This technology solves the problem of the change of the feeding position of the workpiece with a deviation in the positioning surface. Since the workpiece is a rough part, after the robot grabs the workpiece, the position of the positioning hole for feeding will change, and even the flatness of the workpiece during feeding will also change. In this case, without the 3DL vision system, the robot cannot achieve accurate feeding of the workpiece. Principle: Choose a blank as the initial workpiece, calibrate the relationship between the position of the workpiece in the camera and the teaching point of the robot through the 3DL vision software, and complete the feature calibration of the initial workpiece. The loading program completed by teaching is the loading position of the initial position of the initial workpiece, and the deviation value of the workpiece loading is zero at this time. After grabbing other blanks, the position of the positioning hole and the flatness of the workpiece change. Through 3DL software, the robot can calculate the position change amount X, Y, Z, W, P, R. The robot stores the deviation value in the position register [PR]. At this time, the robot can realize the loading of the workpiece by compensating the deviation value [PR] to the initial loading position.
iRVision Palletizing visual processing: yard Duo vision processing calculates the height of the object in the Z direction through the size of the captured object image, and then calculates the offset data to compensate it to the X, Y, R and Z directions. This function realizes that the robot can grasp the palletized workpiece with only one camera.
iRVision Palletizing vision processing (read Z through register Direction compensation value): This function compensates the robot movement in the X, Y, R and Z directions by calculating the 2D position offset captured by the vision and the value of the specified register. The designated register is used to store the height information of the workpiece in the Z direction. The height can be the height of the known workpiece or measured by a position sensor.
iRVision Palletizing visual processing (by the number of layers to get Z Direction compensation value): This function calculates the position of the captured workpiece by integrating the image captured by the vision and the number of layers (workpiece height) relative to the size of the image. The number of layers is automatically calculated from the relative size and height data. Therefore, even when the captured size has a slight error, the position of the workpiece can still be calculated.
Automatic flexible handling of workpieces without fixtures
Advantages: fast speed, high flexibility, high efficiency, high precision, no pollution, etc. It is a very mature mechanical processing aid.
Working principle: It is to use a high-definition camera (vision system) to determine the exact position of a workpiece without positioning.After the robot receives the signal, the robot installs a dedicated gripper customized for the workpiece to reliably grasp the workpiece. After communicating with the machine tool to obtain the loading request, the robot finally completes the loading and unloading of the machine tool. In various machining industries, this The system is widely used.
Application advantages: Make the production line simpler and easier to maintain; greatly reduce the labor intensity of workers; efficiency and flexibility are relatively high. The system is simple in structure, safe and civilized, and pollution-free. It can be applied in various mechanical processing occasions and meets the production requirements of high efficiency and low energy consumption.
Compared with domestic machining, most of them currently use special machines or manual loading and unloading of machine tools. This is very suitable when the product is relatively single and the production capacity is not high. However, with various requirements such as cost pressure, technology upgrading, and productivity increase, the use of special planes or manual loading and unloading of machine tools has exposed many deficiencies and weaknesses. On the one hand, the special plane covers a large area, complex structure, and inconvenient maintenance. , Is not conducive to the production of automated assembly lines; on the other hand, it is not flexible enough to adapt to the accelerating changes, and is not conducive to the adjustment of product structure; secondly, the use of labor will increase labor costs, increase labor intensity, and low efficiency, and This may result in insufficient product quality stability, which cannot meet the needs of mass production.
The above problems can be solved by using the robot automatic flexible handling system. This system has high efficiency and product quality stability, high flexibility and high reliability, simple structure and easier Maintenance can meet the production of different types of products. For users, it can quickly adjust product structure and expand production capacity, and can greatly reduce the labor intensity of industrial workers. Under this trend, the demand for robotic automatic flexible handling systems will increase substantially.
