Features of automated production line
1, products or parts in each station of the process operation and auxiliary work as well as transportation between stations can be automated, with a high degree of automation.
2, the production rhythm is more strict, products or parts in the processing position of the residence time is equal or multiples.
3, the product object is usually fixed, or in a small range of changes, and in the change of varieties to spend a lot of time for manual withering.
4, the whole line has a unified control system, generally using mechatronics technology.
5, automated production line initial investment is more.
The basic composition of automated production line
Automated production line structure
Automated production line consists of basic process equipment and a variety of auxiliary devices, control systems and workpiece transmission system, according to the specifics of the product or part, process requirements, process, productivity requirements and the degree of automation and other factors, the structure of the automated line and its complexity, there are often great differences, but the general automated production line consists of a number of basic parts, generally consists of the following five-part structure Composed of: 1, mechanical body part; 2, detection and sensor part; 3, control part; 4, actuator part; 5, power source part.
For specific automation production line, its composition is not exactly the same, according to the structural characteristics, can be divided into general equipment automatic line, special equipment automatic line, automatic line without storage device and automatic line with storage device and so on.
Automated production line use conditions
1、High product demand. Require a high production volume;
2、Stable product design. It is difficult for the automatic production line to cope with frequent changes in design;
3, long product life. In most cases the product life is at least a few years;
4, a variety of processing. The product manufacturing process requires the use of a variety of machining processes.
