Drone technology and aerial operation practice of die-casting machines

With the continuous development of technology, drone technology has been widely applied in various fields. In the manufacturing industry, drone technology has gradually become an emerging technology in the die casting industry. This article will introduce the application of drone technology in the field of die-casting machines and its aerial operation practices, in order to provide reference for technological innovation in the die-casting industry.

1、 Application of drone technology in the field of die-casting machines

Drone inspection

Drones can be equipped with high-definition cameras, thermal imagers, and other equipment to conduct regular inspections of die-casting machines. Through images captured by drones, engineers can quickly identify potential faults in the die-casting machine, carry out timely repairs, avoid downtime on the production line, and improve production efficiency.

Drone Shot Peening

In the process of die casting production, the surface smoothness of the mold has a significant impact on product quality. Traditional surface treatment methods for molds, such as sandblasting and grinding, have low efficiency and high labor intensity. The drone shot peening technology can achieve efficient surface treatment of molds and improve product quality.

Drone spraying

Drones can be equipped with spraying equipment to spray the die-casting molds. Compared with traditional spraying methods, drone spraying has higher spraying efficiency and better coating effect, which is beneficial for improving the quality of die castings.

Drone detection

Drones can be equipped with various sensors to monitor real-time parameters such as temperature and pressure during the die-casting process. By analyzing and processing these data, engineers can optimize the die-casting process and improve product quality.

2、 Aerial Operations Practice

Practice of drone inspection

In the actual production process of a die casting enterprise, the drone inspection team used a fixed route for inspection. The inspection cycle is once a week, and each inspection includes multiple aspects such as mold surface, cooling system, hydraulic system, etc. Through drone inspections, engineers can promptly identify potential faults and improve production efficiency.

Practice of drone shot peening treatment

In the actual production process of a die casting enterprise, the drone shot peening team used customized shot peening equipment to treat the surface of the mold. Through drone shot peening, the company has successfully improved the surface smoothness of the mold and improved product quality.

Practice of drone spraying

In the actual production process of a die casting enterprise, the drone spraying team used customized spraying equipment to spray the surface of the mold. Through drone spraying, the company has successfully improved the surface smoothness of the mold and improved product quality.

Drone Detection Practice

In the actual production process of a die casting enterprise, the drone detection team adopted wireless transmission technology to transmit the data collected by the drone in real-time to the ground control station. Through real-time analysis of these data, engineers can promptly identify potential faults, optimize die casting processes, and improve product quality.

3、 Conclusion

The application of drone technology in the field of die-casting machines has great potential. Through aerial operations such as drone inspection, shot peening, spraying, and testing, enterprises can improve production efficiency, reduce production costs, and improve product quality. With the continuous development and improvement of drone technology, its application in the die-casting industry will be more extensive and in-depth.
