The night fell, and a factory with "no five fingers stretched out" came from the sound of the metal board and the machine tool "click". In the night, only the device status indicator, quality inspection light, and automatic travel AGV car laser laser launchers are glowing, and the entire production workshop of tens of thousands of square meters is in a "black light" state.

At the 2022 Smart Expo held on August 22, the first "Black Light Factory" in the field of domestic automotive power assembly manufacturing by Shanghai Jiaotong University Chongqing Research Institute and Jiaotong University of Jiaotong and Jiaotong University was unveiled. Give the production completely to the machine.

"Black Light Factory"

Only the automatic production line of the robot "overtime"

"Black Lantern Factory" covers mechanical processing equipment, engineering auxiliary machines, flexible truss robot systems, ground fixed robot systems, AGV logistics systems, stereo warehouses, and corresponding MES control software, AGV workshop dispatch system, WMS stereo warehouse management system Wait.

Use digital and intelligent means to allow the factory to complete from raw materials to the final finished product. All processing, transportation, and testing processes are completed in the empty "black light factory", realizing unmanned homework in the true sense.

At the Smart Expo on the Shanghai Jiaotong University Research Institute.

"Every station here has a number, which corresponds to different robots, and each robot has a matching job." The relevant person in charge said that even if you encounter a rush period, you don’t need workers to work overtime. You can complete the entire process of finished product production, and emancipating artificially can improve production efficiency.

This "black light factory" realizes the digital production of the entire process through the intelligent manufacturing collaborative system. The workpiece is stored on the upper side through the coding and code scanning operation to store the workpiece information into the MES system. In each production link data collection system, the data collection system The collected information and the RFID identification code of the workpiece are bound to obtain the processing information of the entire process of workpiece, and finally the full digital tracking of the entire production process.

It is through this "connection line" method that the "black light factory" formed a fully automatic production line. With the support of the "Black Lantern Factory" information system, the automatic schedule can be issued to apply. The robots of each node receive the task arrangement and will start working work accordingly.

On this production line, there are 15 robots, which can go offline for 114 seconds. Compared with artificial production, the efficiency is at least doubled.

Intelligent "sorter"

At this year, the "Super Assistant" of the "Black Lantern Factory" also came to the scene.

Among them, the AGV robot can skillfully transfer the workpiece rough from the material transportation AGV to the production line. After receiving the finished work information, they can immediately rush to the assembly line to make the engine cylinder components made and clean it, and send it to the specified. Position testing, slowly returned to the assembly line to continue working. At the shortest time to complete the most material transportation work, the spatial utilization rate and distribution efficiency have been greatly improved.

S three -dimensional visual guidance collaborative robot intelligent sorting and feeding system

This powerful sorting robot is named "Stereon Visual Guidance Collaborative Robot Intelligent Sorting and Moving System". And a set of complex intelligent automation workstations composed of multiple units such as sports control units.

High -standard "Quality Inspector"

The efficiency and accuracy of quality inspection directly affects the production benefits of the enterprise. In traditional factories, quality inspections usually rely on human eye inspection abnormal products, and there are many disadvantages. For example, artificial quality inspections have caused many misjudgment due to visual fatigue. Quality standards, etc.

In this regard, the "Black Lantern Factory" develops a robot visual flexible detection system to achieve fully automatic online detection. It can achieve independent work, which can achieve 24 hours of no one on duty, reduce artificial labor, and increase the equipment utilization rate of more than 95%.

The robot visual flexible detection system with a swinging laser sensor as the core is used to obtain quality data by automatically measure the parts to achieve the non -contact fully automatic size detection (including conventional measurement and analysis measurement). Products that are distinguished or not for automatic sorting.

"Safety Officer" all -weather

The purpose of the "black light factory" is to achieve "less people" by reducing positions with low added value. Based on the comprehensive consideration of factors such as efficiency and cost, which work is determined by the machine and which is done by the machine, which is the process of human -machine collaboration.

Especially in terms of "security" guarantee, human -machine collaboration is even more important. Although the "Black Lantern Factory" has achieved fewer people and even unmanned operations, in terms of overall safety operation and maintenance, the team has made a lot of effort to develop smart inspection and disposal robots.

"Through this intelligent operation and maintenance system, we hope to reduce the frequency of artificial inspections." The relevant person in charge on the scene said, "Because whether it is the equipment operating in the factory or entering part of the small space, there will be certain risks. "

Inspection and disposal robots.
