| In each kind of steel and iron product, steel coil as a result of its special product shape, size as well as transport mode, if uses the normal machinery installment as the main body structure of the mark installment, definitely will cause system's complicated shape and the uncontrollability. The industry robot is suitable to use in this kind of flexibility request quite high situation, therefore becomes the development direction of the steel coil mark installment. And that the traditional lattice mark way is being substituted gradually by single stroke track way due to its maintenance quantity is also big, the mark state is unstable.This article first briefly introduced the robot technology's essential feature, elaborated the superiority of using the robot in carrying on the work in marking the steel coil. Then, from the machinery and electrical specialized angle embarking, in detail described how to design this kind of robot workstation. After completing the design, but also needs to carry on the simulation on the computer, through the analog simulation, which can check the compiled robot programs whether can make the robot accomplished the whole set marking act or not, as well as according to receives marking content differently, mark the corresponding information. At the same time, in order to write the font better and quickly, also plan the route for each font. And then, supply the ABB robot RAPID language programming standard, systematically description how to compile this kind of robot program. Finally, it gives a new communication method that can help to increase the durability of the system.The steel coil mark robot workstation which was designed in this article has been already applied in the domestic many place, actually running effect is good, improved the product quality greatly, increased the work efficiency and the production benefit, obtained user's approval and the high praise, proved that the industry robot can do well in the production line to carry on the online marking task. |
