Characteristics and selection methods of 3D flexible welding platform

Although the 3D flexible welding platform is a flexible and reusable fixture,its essence determines the need for sufficient structural strength and stiffness to determine its positioning accuracy;At the same time,flexible fixtures need to achieve their flexible functions,making their structure more complex than general rigid fixtures.Therefore,structural optimization design technology based on the characteristics of flexible tooling is an important technology in flexible tooling design.

Characteristics of 3D welding platform:

1.In order to adapt to the development trend of integrated tooling equipment,flexible tooling control systems should be able to adapt to multiple bus topologies in order to integrate with the CNC systems of other CNC equipment.

2.The control system of the 3D welding platform needs to have the ability to control a large number of executing components,especially the ability to accurately control axes beyond(more than 6).At the same time,it is required that the tooling control system has openness,and the number of servo shafts(motors)can be easily increased or decreased without affecting the control accuracy.

3.The control system of the 3D welding platform achieves motion control of a large number of positioning points in flexible fixtures by controlling servo motors.The function of flexible fixtures determines that in applications,they generally only care about the position accuracy of each positioning point,and do not care about the motion trajectory accuracy.Therefore,flexible fixture CNC systems generally do not need to have multi axis synchronization and interpolation functions.

The service life of the 3D welding platform is still good.As long as the correct method is used,the accuracy of the 3D welding platform can be restored through debugging or scraping processes.The service life of the 3D welding platform itself is also good.

The 3D welding platform is the main reference tool for marking lines,and its placement should be stable with a horizontal surface.The flat surface of the 3D welding platform should be evenly used to avoid local wear and indentation,and its surface should not be collided or knocked,and it should be kept clean regularly.

The 3D welding platform is made into ribbed plate and box type.The working surface of the 3D welding platform can be rectangular,square or circular,with materials HT200-300,QT400-600,ZG15-45.The working surface of the 3D welding platform adopts scraping and grinding technology,and can process V-shaped,T-shaped,U-shaped grooves,dovetail grooves,circular holes,long holes,etc.

Selection method for 3D welding platform:

1.Consider whether there is a good after-sales service team to choose from.

2.If it is a bulk purchase,check if it has a certificate of conformity.

3.If you need to install it yourself,it will bring a lot of trouble.

4.Can you provide relevant installation and construction,as well as leveling and adjustment,until the debugging is qualified.

5.The inspection of the overall appearance of the platform is also essential.For example,during the inspection process,check whether there are scratches,collisions,or signs of wear on the surface.If these situations occur,it means that the platform is unqualified and should not be chosen.

6.The degree of evaluation and reputation are relative,and if we only look at reputation or reputation,we cannot determine its quality.And being able to choose one with high degree and good reputation can naturally determine its quality.
