Machine Vision based Loading and Unloading System for Brake Disc Workpieces
In the production process of traditional brake discs,manual labor is almost always used for loading and unloading the machine tools.This operation method has the problems of low handling efficiency,high production cost,and cannot meet the requirements of efficient production.A loading and unloading system for brake disc workpieces based on machine vision was proposed.It combines vision with industrial robots and builds a system that can accurately identify the pose of the workpiece was obtained,and the pose result was converted into the coordinate system of the robot,thereby guiding the robot to accurately grasp the workpiece.Experiments had proven that the system has autonomous flexibility and can successfully complete the loading and unloading of brake discs.
