As the primary equipment of the automatic production line of CNC machine tools and loading and unloading manipulators, truss manipulators can save process equipment, shorten production preparation cycle, ensure parts processing quality and improve production efficiency. With high electromechanical integration, high reliability, high production efficiency, small processing size dispersion, low noise, easy adjustment and maintenance, it is an ideal equipment for mass production of various turning parts.

With the rising labor cost and the disappearance of the demographic dividend, it has become a great obstacle to the development of China's manufacturing industry. The "machine replacement" campaign is spreading all over the country, from the Pearl River Delta to the Yangtze River Delta, from enterprise behavior to government promotion. Robots are standing in the wind of the "Industry 4.0" era, enabling manufacturing enterprises to explore solutions and strategies that are more in line with the future development of enterprises.

In the field of numerical control machine tool processing and production, enterprises have started the road of "machine replacement". Truss robots are used to replace manual loading and unloading to assist numerical control machine tools in precision machining and workpiece transportation. The operation process is fully automated, and the absorption, lifting, overturning, walking and release actions are completed according to the proposed degree. No human assistance is required, which greatly reduces the labor cost of the production enterprise and prevents personal safety accidents from occurring in dangerous operation areas.

Among them, the main components of the truss robot are composed of mechanical arm, fixture, transmission system, drive system, PLC control system, electrical system and silo. The clamping methods of workpieces include suction cup, air claw and pallet, which are suitable for automatic transfer and feeding of various workpieces. Manipulators rely on X axis (front and rear), Y axis (left and right), Z axis (up and down), T axis (turning), R axis (rotation), etc. to complete various complex actions. Moreover, the truss robot has a humanized human-machine interface, and has the synchronization function with the CNC lathe host.

As the display and operation terminal, the touch screen of the truss robot can input and display basic technical parameters and operation program options. The control system of the robot system integration company's machine tool robot carries out identity recognition through user name and password. The degree is protected, and unauthorized personnel cannot use it. The password login can be set to multiple levels, such as operator, programmer, and maintainer.
