Solution details

1. Project Introduction

High-performance fiber composite lightweight vehicles have become a new strategic product to solve energy and environmental issues. The fiber reinforced thermosetting composite materials that currently dominate the market face problems such as long forming cycle, low production efficiency, low automation, and high cost. In addition, the key equipment used in supporting production lines is expensive, making it difficult to achieve mass production, which seriously hinders composite materials. Application in the automotive industry.

This project integrates polishing, cleaning, drying, spraying and baking through a composite coating demonstration line. It is equipped with constant pressure controlled robot polishing and optimized robot spraying. The average production time of a single piece can be less than 20 minutes and the performance indicators reach the process standard; The composite assembly line integrates handling, gluing, transportation and riveting. It cooperates with the independently developed efficient rapid gluing device and the development of the first automated riveting assembly in China to realize the rapid gluing and efficient of carbon fiber composite vehicle samples. Robot riveting. At the same time, it provides customers with a complete set of system solutions for automotive composite materials from material selection, structure and ply design, simulation, manufacturing process and mold design, component preparation, coating and connection assembly.
