Development of the Induction Heat Treatment Robot System for the Car-Body Mold using OLP Simulator

摘要

Heat treatment for car body's mold is mainly a manual process which is performed by worker. The performance of this process is affected by workers' skill level, and has limitation to maintain uniform product quality. In this study, we developed high frequency heat treatment robot system that implements OLP type simulator to overcome the limitation of manual process, and to improve and stabilize the quality level. Also, we plan to verify the efficiency of robot system and mechanism stability from the early stage through design verification and simulated analysis in development stage. In addition, we plan to study the way to establish optimized D/B for heat treatment criteria for car body mold such as heat treatment speed, interval, etc. via site experiment.
