Robots Lead the Smart Foundry Revolution
Since the first industrial robot came out in the 1960s, it has been constantly updated and experimentally tested. Industrial robots integrate advanced technologies such as machinery, electronics and computers, which greatly promotes the automation process of the manufacturing industry. Especially in the automobile manufacturing industry, robots have been able to automatically complete welding, painting, assembly and other processes.
With the implementation of the 4.0 industrial revolution and the "Made in China 2025" strategy, both at home and abroad, the requirements for the quality of castings are higher. In addition, casting manufacturers are also facing requirements such as increased labor costs and cleaner production. Therefore, foundry enterprises must reform to achieve sustainable development. The emergence and continuous maturity of industrial robots provide new opportunities for the reform of foundry enterprises.
In the context of the current transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry, the requirements for improving efficiency, reducing costs and realizing green manufacturing are increasingly being paid attention to. In the foundry industry, this means gradually switching from traditional steel materials to light alloy materials such as aluminum alloys and magnesium alloys. Aluminum alloys are widely used because of their excellent properties. However, the traditional aluminum alloy casting environment has many problems such as dust, noise and exhaust emissions, which has brought great pressure to the environment. But since the 21st century, robots have entered the foundry industry and gradually solved these problems. For example, robots are used to realize work processes such as spraying, feeding soup, and picking parts. The traditional casting production process has outstanding features such as high efficiency and high dimensional accuracy.
At the same time, in order to ensure the smooth operation of the robot, it is also necessary to be equipped with a Manufacturing Execution System (MES). Through information technologies such as the Internet of Things, the Internet and industrial automation, the all-round integration of personnel, machines, materials and process links in the workshop is realized, and intelligent casting is truly realized.
At present, the integration of industrialization and informatization has been advocated, and industrial robots are a symbolic product of the high integration of industrial technology and information technology.
