The deburring of castings, a process that can robotizar
Inser Robotics, S.A. has developed a new product to solve the problem of the deburring of pieces of metal injected under pressure. The proposed solution by resorting to a robot which manipulates the tool on the piece fixed and moored by an equipment designed for the purpose.
The application has been resolved with a robot by manipulating the tool on the piece fixed and moored by an equipment designed for that purpose. The loading and unloading of parts is carried out manually and is considering a second phase in which everything is automatic, with the help of a third robot.
An operator, upon visual inspection and weighing of the pieces, load them on a station, the tools of a Rodless turntable of two stations, while in the other, two robots equipped with floating pneumatic tools perform the operation of rebabado parts.
Control and the language of programming AS of robots Kawasaki, have allowed the development of parametric programs that allow rapid adjustment of the main variables of the system: speed of displacement, orientation of the tool, pressure, etc., in a way that testing and adjusting to changes in piece or finish specificationsthey are easy and intuitive.
In addition, - and therein lies the novelty - the robotic system is complemented with a virtual reality program developed by Inser Robotics specifically for the deburring. Provides all the tasks relating to the generation of trajectories of deburring above the piece, with the following main features:
- Programming off-line 3D trajectories.
- Simple modification of trajectories.
- Quick and intuitive learning curve.
- Training in robotics very basic.
- In multiple tools, it is only necessary to schedule a piece.
- Elimination of collisions of the robot.
