The key technology and application of robot grinding of cylinder block and head castings
The problems of the process flow and manual grinding of the cylinder block and head clean-ing line are briefly introduced,and the two main automatic grinding technologies of machine tool grind-ing and robot grinding are compared.This paper analyzes the main difficulties and key points of robot grinding of cast iron cylinder block and cylinder head,expounds the overall scheme,action flow and system composition of the robot grinding workstation,and elaborates the simulation of grinding worksta-tion,and solves the problem of robot grinding reliability and grinding quality due to poor consistency of castings and poor consistency of parts to be polished by means of floating fixtures,air-floating flexible motorized spindles,laser detection systems and other key technical means that adapt to the multi-variety cylinder block and cylinder heads.The application situation is briefly explained,and it is pointed out that robot grinding supplemented by manual cleaning is an effective way to improve the reliability of robot grinding complex castings such as cylinder block and cylinder head,and solve the outstanding problem of cleaning and grinding labor.
