A Flexible Chain Conveying System with Workpiece Model Marking

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper show a flexible chain conveying system with workpiece model marking, which could meet the need of the flexible manufacturing system for the processing different types products on a single product line. By using the hall switches and forming a various placement arrangement of the magnet sheets adhering to the workpiece carrier bracket on the conveyor belt; the identification results give a good correspondence one by one between the part and the type information. The workpiece carrier on the entire conveyor belt can be changed flexibility by changing the magnet sheets placement at the same time, because of the easy replacement of the magnet sheets. With the help of PLC control system, it turn to reality to complete automatically feeding work with discharge manipulator or unloading manipulator, to convey and unload automatic material delivery process. The use of chain transmission combined with the energy consumption braking can realize the accurate positioning of the belt when parking.
