Using a robotic arm to transport steel plates only requires installing an electric permanent magnet suction cup at the end of the robotic arm. The robotic arm can complete the up and down movements and rotary movements of the robotic arm, and clamp the fixture through the operation switch, thereby carrying, transplanting, assembling and other operations of the workpiece. The use of a robotic arm with an electric permanent magnet suction cup can reduce the labor intensity of the operator and achieve easy operation and accurate positioning when transporting high-quality workpieces. In traditional manufacturing processes, many products require multiple processing and polishing steps. Most manufacturing production lines have started using robotic arms to clamp and transport workpieces. The robotic arm is a component used to grip workpieces, and there are various structural forms according to the shape, size, weight, material and operation requirements of the grasped object. Clamping type, supporting type, and adsorption type, etc. A motion mechanism that enables the hand to complete various rotations, movements, or compound movements to achieve specified actions, changing the position and posture of the grasped object. Thus achieving the process requirements of multi-faceted machining and polishing.
Before clamping, mechanical fixtures are used to transport the clamped workpiece, which is very slow and has low production efficiency. Various swinging, moving, and composite movements are also required to achieve the transportation of the workpiece to the designated position, which can also cause damage and deformation of the workpiece. In order to solve this problem, we have developed and produced electric permanent magnet fixtures that are compact in size and have strong magnetic force to hold the workpiece without damaging it. They are installed on the robotic arm and connected to the control system for operation, which doubles the production efficiency. Therefore, the electric permanent magnet suction disc of the automated robotic arm can really replace manual labor in the near future.
