在(zai)生(sheng)產率高、生(sheng)產節拍短的大(da)批量(liang)生(sheng)產條件(jian)下,由于要求上下料動(dong)(dong)作迅速和頻繁,操作工(gong)人的勞動(dong)(dong)強(qiang)度很大(da),所以實現(xian)(xian)上下料自動(dong)(dong)化(hua)對于減(jian)輕(qing)工(gong)人體力勞動(dong)(dong)強(qiang)度、提(ti)高生(sheng)產率、實現(xian)(xian)多機床管理和保(bao)證安全生(sheng)產具有(you)重要意義。理想的上料裝置應該具備效率高、供料速度快、工(gong)作可靠、噪聲小(xiao)、不損傷工(gong)件(jian)、結構(gou)緊湊(cou)、通(tong)用性好、使用壽命長、易(yi)維護修理和制造成本低(di)廉等優點。
