Abstract: Aiming at automatic gelatinizing, loading and unloading aluminum frames which were needed in the assembly process of solar panel, reasonable operation process of the aluminum frame was programmed, the control strategy of gelatinizing, loading and unloading aluminum frame was researched. And an automatic control scheme was put forward. Its mechanical structure was established by SolidWorks software, and its control system was designed by PLC and HMI. Through the PLC controlling servo motor and electromagnetic valve, the ball screw, synchronous belt and cylinder were driven, then the motion of loading material, gelatinizing, unloading material were completed. During equipment debugging, the results indicate that the agencies can work cooperatively, cooperating with touchscreen, high production efficiency can be acquired, and it also can save work time and human resources, this equipment can satisfy the mass automation production of the enterprise.
Key words: gelatinizing machine; loading and unloading material; PLC; HMI
