This equipment is specially designed for the precision cutting operation of chip components. It employs a dual-CCD visual alignment imaging system that utilizes hardware-based image capture and real-time processing to accurately identify the center point of the MARK reference, serving as the precise basis for all cutting operations.
Cutting Mechanism
The complete cutting mechanism is composed of three integrated motion axes:
- Angle adjustment axis — enables precise angular alignment of the workpiece relative to the cutting path;
- Platform movement axis — provides accurate X-Y positioning of the cutting platform for multi-point cutting operations;
- Cutter axis servo system — delivers high-precision vertical cutting motion with programmable speed and depth control.
These three axes work in coordinated synchronization, governed by the central control system, to ensure repeatable cutting accuracy across every production cycle.
Visual Alignment & Software Integration
The dual-CCD imaging system is fully integrated with PC-based control software, creating a closed-loop visual feedback system that delivers significant advantages:
- MARK point recognition — the system automatically identifies the MARK reference on each workpiece, calculating the exact center point to establish the cutting origin;
- Precision alignment — hardware-level image processing ensures sub-millimeter alignment accuracy, eliminating human error in positioning;
- Blade damage visual detection — the system includes a built-in visual inspection function that monitors the cutting blade condition in real time, automatically detecting blade wear, chipping, or damage to prevent defective cuts;
- Enhanced cutting quality & efficiency — the integration of visual alignment with automated motion control greatly improves both the quality consistency and throughput speed of the cutting process.
Pre-Processing Functions
Product Pre-Positioning Before Loading
The machine features an automatic pre-positioning function that aligns and orients the workpiece before it enters the main cutting zone. This ensures that each component is presented to the cutting mechanism in the correct position, reducing cycle time and improving first-pass yield.
Double Preheating Function (Optional)
The equipment offers a selectable double preheating function prior to cutting. This feature is designed to condition the workpiece material before the cutting operation, which can:
- Reduce thermal shock and material stress during cutting;
- Improve cut edge quality by softening the material at the cut line;
- Minimize chipping or delamination in sensitive chip components.
The double preheating function can be enabled or disabled based on the specific material and application requirements, providing flexibility across different production scenarios.
