ALSONTECH 3D vision CNC loading application case
ALSONTECH has been deeply engaged in the machining industry for many years, with excellent product strength and good service, has won the selection and recognition of machine tool users in auto parts, forging, casting, construction machinery, 3C and other industries, and has accumulated rich CNC loading andunloading application cases and project experience, which can provide mature solutions integrating software and hardware for end users and integrator partners.
§ An engine manufacturer uses ALSONTECH AT-S1000 04A3D vision system to guidethe robot to
complete the CNC loading of the engine block.
o The same station processes at least threespecifications of the cylinder, 3D vision has multi-material compatibility, canquickly complete the switching between materials and the introduction of new materials later;
o 3D vision has good recognition ability for pureblack cylinder workpieces, and the point cloud data is complete, clear and delicate;
o Users do not need to customize complex tooling and ground limit devices, and machine tool maintenance personnel can easily master the operation of the vision system, and the production and maintenance costsare low.
§ A gearbox manufacturer uses ALSONTECH AT-S1000 04A 3D vision system to guide the robot to complete the CNC feeding of the gearbox housing.
o 3D vision can meet the needs of flexible processing, and is perfectly compatible with complex situations such as small batches, multiple batches, and multiple specifications in customer-single production;
o The linear laser 3D vision scheme can effectively cope with the reflection of the shell surface, and can easily obtain a complete and clear high-quality point cloud for materials with complex shapes;
o Industrial quality, meet the processing strength requirements of 7*24 hours, low failure rate, convenient maintenance.
3. CNC loading of rollers
§ A construction machinery manufacturer uses ALSONTECH AT-S1000 01A 3D vision system to guide
the robot to complete the CNC feeding of crawler rollers.
o The roller is a highly reflective workpiece, andthe linear laser 3D vision scheme can cope with the characteristics of the workpiece, obtain complete and effective high-quality point cloud data, and guide the robot to accurately grasp;
o The site adopts large material frame incoming materials, the fixture into the frame grasping and the frame wall interference risk, the 3D vision system can implement obstacle avoidance through the algorithm to ensure the effectiveness of grabbing;
o AT S100 01A 3D vision system has a large field ofview and a large depth of field,which can cover the same layer of workpieces at one time, fixed installation, and compress the working cycle in parallelmode to improve the overall feeding efficiency.
§ A pump valve manufacturer uses ALSONTECH AT-S1000-04A 3D vision system to guidethe robot to
complete the CNC feeding of castings such as pump body base.
o The site adopts a set of 3D vision + a robot +ground rail, adopts sliding mode to take into account the production and processing of a variety of workpieces and multiple machine tools, 3D vision has good compatibility, can quickly switch materials, and ensure smooth multi-station production;
o Most of the castings are dark and pure black workpieces, and 3D vision can be easily identified to obtain complete and clear edge high-quality point cloud data;
o The site environment is complex, some stations areclose to doors and windows, the light transmission belt causes morning and evening lighting changes, the line laser scheme can be fully adapted, without the operator repeatedly adjusting the parameters, easy maintenance.
§ A 3C product manufacturer uses ALSONTECH AT-S1000-06C S 3D vision system
to guidethe robot to complete the CNC loading of computer panels.
o AT-S1000-06C-S 3D camera is compact and can beoperated flexibly with collaborative robots;
o There are sliding and displacement of the workpiecein the transfer process of the composite robot, and there is deviation in the robot stopping, 3D vision can effectively correct the deviation, accurately locate the position of the workpiece and pick it up;
o The processing technology is grinding, there is dust, water vapor, etc., 3D camera protection level IP65, frequent entry and exit of the machine tool to take and place materials can also be well adapted,and high-protection products can be customized to cope with more complex processing environments.
