  • Publication number: 20240091838
    Abstract: A forming method of a processing curve in a stamping process is provided. The method includes the following steps. A plurality of processing curves are established, and an optimization target is set for the processing curves according to material characteristics of a workpiece, process requirements and a finished product CAD file. At least two of the processing curves are selected and superimposed to form a basic forming curve, wherein each subsection of the basic forming curve corresponds to a selected processing curve. Whether the selected processing curve in each subsection of the basic forming curve matches the optimization target is determined.

  • Publication number: 20220055331
    Abstract: A shaping apparatus for shaping a workpiece includes a controlling module and a pressing module, a moving module, a sensing module and a shaping calculation module that are connected to the controlling module. The pressing module includes two pressing elements respectively applying load to a top/bottom surface of the workpiece. The moving module includes a moving platform moving the workpiece horizontally between a sensing zone and a processing zone. The sensing module performs a capturing process on the workpiece in the sensing zone to obtain a surface information. The shaping calculation module compares the surface information with an ideal shape data to calculate and get a shaping information. The moving platform moves the workpiece to the sensing zone. The sensing module performs a capturing process on the workpiece. The moving platform moves the workpiece to the processing zone. The pressing module performs a shaping treatment on the workpiece.

  • Publication number: 20190122326
    Abstract: A carrier includes at least one sucking member, a pressure-differentiating device, an optical unit and an image-capturing unit. The at least one sucking member, made of a flexible transparent material, has a plurality of micro holes extending in a first direction by penetrating through two opposing surfaces of the at least one sucking member. The pressure-differentiating device, connected with the at least one sucking member, is to have the at least one sucking member to perform a pressure-differentiated suction upon a workpiece. The optical unit is to capture an image of the workpiece through the at least one sucking member and to refract/reflect the image by an image-forming angle. The image-capturing unit is to capture and further output the image refracted/reflected by the optical unit in a real-time manner.

  • Patent number: 10260870
    Abstract: An on-line measuring system, a datum calibrating method, a deviation measuring method and a computer-readable medium are provided. The datum calibrating method includes following steps. A work piece is scanned by a scanning unit to obtain a global point cloud data. A local CAD data of the work piece is obtained according to a predetermined range. A local CAD geometric feature of the local CAD data is obtained. A local point cloud data of the global point cloud data is obtained according to a local range corresponding to the predetermined range. A local scanning geometric feature of the local point cloud data is obtained. The local scanning geometric feature and the local CAD geometric feature are compared to obtain at least one spatial freedom limit. A system basis is obtained according to six spatial freedom limits, if the number of the at least one spatial freedom limit reaches six.

  • Patent number: 8688274
    Abstract: A robot positioning method includes the following steps. A optical sensing device is configured at a front end of a robot. Then, the optical sensing device captures a calibration plate image, and a relative position of the optical sensing device with respective to a calibration plate is calculated according to a Bundle Adjustment. A robot calibration method includes the following steps. An optical sensing device is driven to rotate around a reference axis of a calibration plate, so as to calculate a translation matrix between the calibration plate and the robot, and the optical sensing device is driven to translate along three orthogonal reference axes of the calibration plate, so as to calculate a rotation matrix between the calibration plate and the robot.

  • Patent number: 8553971
    Abstract: A method and system for measuring three-dimensional coordinates of an object are provided. The method includes: capturing images from a calibration point of known three-dimensional coordinates by two image-capturing devices disposed in a non-parallel manner, so as for a processing module connected to the image-capturing devices to calculate a beam confluence collinear function of the image-capturing devices; calibrating the image-capturing devices to calculate intrinsic parameters and extrinsic parameters of the image-capturing devices and calculate the beam confluence collinear function corresponding to the image-capturing devices; and capturing images from a target object by the image-capturing devices so as for the processing module to calculate three-dimensional coordinates of the object according to the beam confluence collinear function. In so doing, the method and system enable the three-dimensional coordinates and bearings of a target object to be calculated quickly, precisely, and conveniently.
