Design and Implementation of Automatic Assembly Control System for Rotary Ship Type Switch
In response to the low efficiency of the traditional manual assembly mode for a certain ship type switch and the de-pendence of product quality on personal experience,this study investigated the shape structure and assembly characteristics of the ship type switch.Based on the multi station turntable of the splitter,a low-cost and efficient mechanical structure for automatic assembly of the base and switch was designed,and an industrial network hardware structure was constructed using PLC and touch screen.According to the assembly process and control requirements of ship type switches,a control system algorithm for ship type switches was designed,which realized the automatic loading and assembly of ship type switches,quality inspection,and automatic sorting and cutting of defective and qualified products.The human-machine interactive touch screen design realizes online detec-tion and management of the assembly process.This control system is applied in relevant production enterprises,with good product consistency and significant economic benefits.
