Under the representation of information technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, and blockchain, we are entering the era of Industry 4.0, which has triggered a new round of educational reform. The XENDOLL Intelligent Small Industry 4.0 Intelligent Manufacturing Production Line Plan fully reflects the development and application trends of the intelligent manufacturing industry. This plan elaborates on the functional design, teaching plan design, and application process design of the Industry 4.0 practical training teaching platform, Explored a new model for the integration and development of mechanical education and innovation and entrepreneurship education in vocational colleges.

1、 Market applications

This line can be used as a practical training equipment for mechanical manufacturing and automation, mechatronics integration, and robotics majors in colleges, secondary schools, and vocational colleges. It can also be used as an educational and training institution for enterprise engineers and graduate students to conduct comprehensive learning and training on the construction and improvement of Industry 4.0 intelligent unmanned factories.

2、 Serviceable practical training course projects

Fundamentals and Operations of Robot Technology, Mechanical Manufacturing and Fundamentals, Mechanical Engineering Testing Technology, Electromechanical Transmission Control, Hydraulic and Pneumatic Transmission, Robot Technology and Applications, Electromechanical Integration System Design, CNC Technology, Electromechanical System Simulation, CAD/CAM, PLC Principles and Applications, Digital Manufacturing Technology, Electromechanical Equipment Fault Diagnosis, Manufacturing Technology, Multi axis CNC Processing Technology, Virtual and Simulation Technology, etc.

3、 Composition of XENDOLL Intelligent Manufacturing Production Line

Composed of an industrial 6-axis degree of freedom robot, a three coordinate robotic arm, a flexible CNC lathe, a flexible CNC milling machine, RFID system, PLC workstation, intelligent warehouse, central control panel, conveyor belt, etc., it realizes automated loading and unloading, processing and other unmanned work processes. The robot feeds and retrieves materials to two machines according to instructions; This system can achieve programming of industrial robot loading and unloading workstation system, integration of loading and unloading system, RFID system application, PLC system programming, CNC lathe programming and processing, CNC milling machine programming and processing, communication training of fieldbus, and other links.

(This production line can be customized according to the school's configuration)

Enable students to easily master the flexible machining production system composed of industrial 6-axis robot loading and unloading and CNC machine tools, which can meet their needs for learning and operating industrial robots. Through the learning and training of this system, students have a comprehensive understanding and experience of the overall application of intelligent production unmanned factories.

4、 Workflow

The three coordinate robotic arm takes materials from the raw material warehouse and places them on the conveyor belt. The RFID system reads the values, and the conveyor belt is transported to the 6-axis robot end. The robot loads and unloads the materials and sends them to the CNC turning unit for part processing. The finished parts are then sent back to the conveyor belt and transported to the intelligent warehouse end. The three coordinate robotic arm stores the finished parts in the warehouse, and the RFID system reads the values. In this basic process, schools can also add expansion modules according to actual teaching needs, such as visual inspection, MES intelligent management systems, etc.

5、Advantages and characteristics of the production line

1. Small footprint

2. Low construction cost

3. Safe and easy to operate by hand;

4. Strong comprehensiveness

5. Strong scalability
