The automotive industry has always been the most important field of robotics applications. With the increase in automation requirements, the application of industrial robots has been further expanded. In addition to traditional welding applications, robots are loading and unloading materials, material handling palletizing, grinding, painting, and assembly. Other fields have also been widely used. Metal forming machine tools are an important part of the machine tools. Forming and processing are usually associated with high labor intensity, noise pollution, metal dust, etc., sometimes in a high temperature, high humidity, or even polluted environment. The work is simple and boring, and the enterprises are difficult to recruit. The integration of industrial robots and forming machine tools not only solves the problem of enterprise employment, but also improves processing efficiency and safety, and improves machining accuracy. It has great room for development. CNC bending machine integrated application There are two main ways to integrate robot bending applications. One is the bending machine as the center, the robot configuration vacuum suction cup, magnetic tension sheet loading rack, positioning table, cutting table, flip frame forming bending unit. The second is the flexible processing line formed by robots and laser equipment or CNC rotary table punching machines, industrial robot walking shafts, sheet material transmission lines, positioning tables, and vacuum suction cups. Eston uses its own technology and platform in the robot control system and machine tool control system to realize seamless connection, develop bending software packages, and implement closed-loop control of robot feeding during bending. At different bending speeds, the robot achieves complete tracking of automatic matching. The bending software package also shortens the bending teaching time from 2-3 days to 2-3 hours. In the switch cabinet, file cabinets, elevators, security doors and other processing is well applied. Press stamping integrated application There are two main methods for the integrated application of robots and presses. First, a single robot punches up and down the material: the robot moves the material from the demolition platform to the positioning table, and then moves it to the press mold to perform pressing after positioning. After the stamping is completed, the robot picks up the material and puts it into the stacking table. A single press robot automatically loads and unloads material. The second is the robot stamping connection: through multiple robots, a stamping connection is established between multiple presses. According to the requirements of the forming process of the workpiece, multiple presses are required to be processed. The entire production line is composed of a demolition robot, a feeding robot, a transfer robot between presses, and a tail line robot. Compared with robots with linear coordinates, the use of industrial robots is more flexible, there is no contour requirement for the mold, and it is easy to integrate. Eston seamlessly connects its own press control system to the robot control system to achieve optimal coordination of the robot's movements and presses, and the use of fieldbus to maximize the efficiency of the entire production line and increase safety. Hot Die Forging Integrated Application Hot die forging production lines usually consist of two die forging presses, one for stamping and the other for trimming. The hot die forging robot integrated application usually configures two robots, one is responsible for transferring the high-temperature material processed by the intermediate frequency furnace to the press forming die forging press, and the other is responsible for taking the material from the press forming die forging press and transferring it to another die. Forging machine for trimming. In order to prevent high-temperature stamping of the workpiece from sticking to the mold, it is necessary to lubricate the mold with graphite after each stamping. Lubrication can be performed by robots or by special agencies. Due to the high temperature and humidity, and the harsh environment brought by graphite lubrication, special attention should be paid to the robot's protection work and the robot's own ability to resist heat radiation. Eston's robot 4-5-6 axis motor is in the robot arm and small The arm joints have the structural features of self-heat radiation. The electronic cam control system is installed in the forging press to coordinate the operation of the forging press and the operation of the robot to improve the processing efficiency and enhance the safety of the system. Welding application Welding is the process after the forming of the machine tool plate. There are two types of resistance welding and arc welding for robot welding. The application of welding robot accounts for more than 40% of the entire robot application. Arc welding application is based on the robot, configuration welding machine, wire feeder, welding gun, fixtures and other components composed of welding workstations. Eston offers 6kg dedicated arc welding robot workstations with arm lengths of 1400, 1600 and 2000mm. Resistance welding application is based on the robot as the core, configuration spot welding gun, welding controller, water and gas unit, pipeline package, fixtures and other components composed of welding workstations. Eston offers a 220kg special resistance welding robot workstation with an arm length of 2600mm. In addition, Estonia Automation develops a special welding software package for welding applications and integrates a welding expert process parameter library into a robot system to meet various types of needs. Robots are typical representatives of advanced manufacturing technologies and automation equipment. Intelligent industrial equipment has become the basis for the upgrade and transformation of global manufacturing. The integration of industrial robots and CNC machine tools has enabled smart manufacturing and digital workshops and smart factories to move from concept to reality.
For over a century, automobiles have been equipped with one or more windshield wipers. The earliest was a hand operated unit: handle on the inside of the windshield, brush on the outside, with a connector passed through the frame. Soon after, the rubber squeegee replaced the brush. Today we have computerized mechanisms that sense rain, start their process automatically, and clear windshields continuously unassisted, intermittently as chosen, or automatically as needed.
Progressive change in the design, manufacturing, and production of windshield wipers and wiper systems have been largely uniform, due to standardized changes in technology and little change in the basic elements of weather. Industrialization has released acids into the atmosphere that weren`t there in vast numbers 100 years ago, but synthetic rubber, the use of stainless steel, and galvanizing processes, by and large, have worked well to fend off a significant impact on everyday reliability with only a fair share of incremental cost to the consumer. Still, though, windshield wiper arms and assemblies are not indestructible. By today`s standards a windshield wiper system will be in operation for about 12 years. Consumers will still find a need for after-market arms and assemblies during that period due to mechanical wear and prolonged exposure to the elements.
Switches, modules, circuit boards, and motors are the more expensive elements of the windshield wiper system. They fair better, in longevity, than arms, assemblies, and windshield wiper blades- more along the 12 years durability of the vehicles themselves. First off they are shielded from the elements of whether, and don`t require regular maintenance or human physical contact. Secondly, with the exception of motors or actuators, they don`t physically move, but rather passively handle the passage of low voltage electrons. If a motor does fail, more than likely the failure will not be a hardwire issue, but rather something that will signal a need for attention with noise, such as a worn bearing or damaged spline.
Since the outbreak of World War I (1914) the demand for rubber products has been instrumental in the growth of industrialization. Shortages due to geopolitical changes in South America and Asia spurred the need for synthetic rubber. By 1943, two years after the start of WWII, petroleum based synthetic rubber surpassed the supply of natural rubber. Windshield wiper blades followed suit, but despite advancements, synthetic or natural, rubber windshield wiper blades continue to succumb to elements of acid rain, fluctuating temperature, and constant friction.
Dirt, grease, and grime are among the most common problems associated with wiper blades. The good news is, dirt, grease, and grime can be removed by frequent cleaning with alcohol wipes or soap and water. A small amount of petroleum jelly will replenish the natural oils lost under normal conditions. If you don`t expect the blades to do the work of an ice scraper, your blades will surprise you with their longevity, barring unexpected injury do to road hazards and abuse. Make sure to physically remove ice and frozen grime from your windshield and wiper blades prior to running the windshield wipers.
When your wipers leave fine streaks and lines on your windshield, and cleaning the blades has no effect, or when your wipers become noisy as they move across the windshield- check for damage such as rips, bends, and brittleness. If you find the blades are damaged, replace them with refills when available or assemblies from your local automotive retailer.
If the wipers appear to jump along the windshield at high speeds or leave large streaks on your windshield under every day conditions, pull the Windshield Wiper Arm back and inspect the springs and linkage. Sometimes their function can be restored with a lubricant. If not, then, replace the arm or assembly as needed with any one of the fine replacements found in your local retailer. Some retailers will install blades, assemblies, and arms free with your purchase.
