Abstract

More and more special automation equipment had been developed with progress of technology. All kinds of nonstandard equipment were applied to the specific occasion. A vision guided intelligent handing system in the paper was specially designed for carrying the inner ring and outer ring of railway-bearing from material handcart to the testing line. Robot, visual positioning, pneumatic clamping jaw, servo motor and PLC were integrated into this handing system. The visual system was led to take pictures for the inner and outer rings by robot, and transfer the location data of rings to the PLC, the brain of the whole system. The PLC controlled robot and pneumatic clamping jaw finish the handing process through accurate calculation.

Highlights

  • Nonstandard equipment was one kind of privately made, and especial

  • Vision system (No.2) was made up of light source and camera was fixed on an iron shelf, like one eye of human, transferring the position data of the ring it shot to the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)

  • PLC, camera, robot and servo motors were configured in the same network together through the PROFINET protocol, which was a network configuration mode without lots of cable

Summary

Introduction

Nonstandard equipment was one kind of privately made, and especial. They were designed and manufactured according to the needs of customers, and used on special occasion. With the increasing integration of automation, nonstandard equipment had drawn more and more attention [1, 2, 3]. A kind of nonstandard equipment was introduced in the paper, specially designed for carrying rings of railway bearing from handcart to the testing line accurately. The equipment designed in the paper could take the place of manual handing relying on highly integrated automation design. The partition would be put into the recycling trolley automatically
