Intelligent Production Line for Roadheader Cutting Heads in the Coal-Mining Machinery Industry


Client Organization: Tiandi Coal Machinery Group

 

Project Background and Challenges

  • The production process for the cutting head of a roadheader is relatively lengthy.
  • The welding of the gear seat assembly involves as many as 76 components, each with six degrees of freedom, making trajectory planning for the welds extremely challenging.
  • After welding, high positioning accuracy is required: angular accuracy of 0.1° in three axes and dimensional accuracy of 0.5 mm in three coordinates.
  • Multi-layer, multi-pass welding process;

 

Project Content

  • Intelligent heating furnace system (with process parameter setting and recording);
  • Intelligent robotic station for assembly alignment and full-penetration welding (3D vision-guided positioning and parametric programming, pre-weld heating);
  • 6-ton, 3-axis lifting L-shaped welding positioner;
  • 3D scanning intelligent inspection workstation;
  • MES system;
  • Case File: Intelligent Welding Line for the Cutting Head of Shanxi Tiandi Coal Machinery

 

Project Implementation Status

  • The project has been delivered and, as China’s first intelligent welding line for cutting heads, was commissioned at the end of 2021. Currently, Phase II of the project is underway.
