Abstract: This solution is based on the production concept of convenience, safety, reliability and high efficiency. Through the gripper storage cart positioning device, the gripper storage cart is accurately positioned, and the gripper storage cart accurately locates the gripper, thus ensuring the position accuracy of the gripper. Ensure that the robot can pick up the gripper or place the gripper through a fixed running track every time. Through the air source connection device, instead of manual air connection, the pneumatic circuit of the gripper storage cart can be ventilated automatically, safely and quickly, so as to realize the opening and closing of the pneumatic mechanism of the gripper storage cart. Through the wireless coupler, the problem of signal connection and transmission between the gripper storage cart and the welding line is solved, and programmable logic controller electrification control is realized. Through program closed-loop control, the next step is strictly acted in accordance with the steps and signal feedback to ensure safe and efficient switching. Ultimately achieve the goal of improving production efficiency, reducing worker intensity, and improving equipment operating rate.
