Introduction
Automatic loading and unloading device is an industrial automation equipment which is composed of mechanical, pneumatic and electronic components. It is mainly used for automatic loading and unloading of machine tools. The main role of automatic loading and unloading device is to save manpower and reduce labor intensity.
Background
With the increasing demand for automation in various industries, automatic loading and unloading devices have become an important part of machine tool equipment in many production schemes. The use of this device can not only reduce labor intensity, but also ensure the high precision and efficiency of machining. The use of automatic loading and unloading device in mass production can greatly improve the production capacity of the enterprise, reduce the production cost and greatly improve the economic benefits.
Classification
At present, the commonly used automatic loading and unloading devices are classified according to the structure and working principle of loading and unloading devices. Automated loading and unloading devices are mainly divided into three categories: collet chuck, chuck and plate-type clamping.
Design and Components
The basic components of an automatic loading and unloading device include a frame, an X-axis, a Y-axis, a Z-axis, a chuck, a rotating and lifting mechanism, and an electric control cabinet. The structural design of the device is mainly related to the size and shape of the object to be loaded and unloaded.
Working Principle
The working principle of automatic loading and unloading device is that the chuck is driven by the X, Y and Z axis to the designated position and the object is clamped by the chuck. After that, the object is lifted by the lifting mechanism, and the X and Y axis moves forward and back to complete the loading and unloading process. The whole working process is controlled by a control program, which also collects and transmits the data of the loading and unloading process in real time.
Advantages
Automatic loading and unloading devices have many advantages compared with manual operation, for example:
1. Higher precision: The working precision of automatic loading and unloading device is much higher than that of manual operation, which can effectively improve the product quality.
2. Increase efficiency: The automatic loading and unloading device can run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, which can greatly improve the production efficiency.
3. Improving safety: Using automatic loading and unloading device can avoid direct contact between personnel and dangerous objects, improve safety and reduce the risk of accidental injury.
4. Labor saving: With the help of automatic loading and unloading device, manual labor can be greatly saved, which can reduce labor costs and improve work efficiency.
Conclusion
The application of automatic loading and unloading device can save labor and reduce labor intensity. It can improve the machining accuracy and production efficiency, reduce errors, improve safety and reduce labor costs. Therefore, automatic loading and unloading devices are widely used in many fields of engineering and industry.
