Composition and operation of automatic production lines
2025-07-22
1.Core Composition
Processing / Operating Equipment: To complete the core processes of cutting, welding, assembly, etc., such as CNC machine tools, robots, mounters, etc., which require high precision and stability.
Conveying and Handling System: Realize automatic transfer of workpieces between processes through conveyor belts, AGVs, special pallets, etc. to ensure continuous processes.
Control system: PLC as the core, combined with sensors (detecting workpieces/parameters), HMI (human-machine interaction) and industrial network to coordinate equipment linkage and handle abnormalities.
Inspection and quality control: real-time quality monitoring through visual, dimensional and performance inspection devices, and automatic rejection of non-conforming products.
Auxiliary devices: including loading machines, safety protection (light curtains / fences), waste disposal, etc., to ensure stable production.
Power system: Provide electric, pneumatic and hydraulic power to drive the equipment.
2. Operation Procedure
Preparation before production
Setting Parameters: Input the process parameters (e.g. speed, pressure) through HMI to match the production plan.
Check the material: make sure the raw material is sufficient, the feeding device is not blocked, and the fixture is clean.
Equipment self-test: the system automatically detects whether the sensor, motor, etc. are normal, troubleshooting.
Automatic operation
After starting, the conveying system feeds the material, the sensor locates the workpiece, and the processing equipment works automatically according to the process.
Each process is linked through the control system and the beat is synchronized (the next process is started after the previous one is completed).
The finished products are inspected and passed into the finished product area, and the defective products are automatically shunted.
Monitoring and Adjustment
The operator monitors the output, equipment status and alarm information (e.g. lack of material, defective products) through HMI.
Minor abnormalities can be fine-tuned parameters (e.g., conveying speed) to ensure that the beat matches.
Wrap-up and Maintenance
Normal shutdown after completion of production, clean up residual material, record yield and pass rate.
Routine maintenance of equipment (lubrication, cleaning of sensors) and troubleshooting of potential faults.
