在生(sheng)產(chan)(chan)(chan)率高(gao)、生(sheng)產(chan)(chan)(chan)節拍(pai)短的(de)(de)大批(pi)量(liang)生(sheng)產(chan)(chan)(chan)條件(jian)下,由于要(yao)求上(shang)下料動作迅速和(he)頻繁,操作工(gong)(gong)人(ren)的(de)(de)勞動強度很大,所以實現上(shang)下料自動化對于減輕工(gong)(gong)人(ren)體力勞動強度、提高(gao)生(sheng)產(chan)(chan)(chan)率、實現多機床管理和(he)保證(zheng)安全生(sheng)產(chan)(chan)(chan)具(ju)(ju)有重(zhong)要(yao)意義。理想的(de)(de)上(shang)料裝(zhuang)置應該具(ju)(ju)備效率高(gao)、供料速度快、工(gong)(gong)作可靠、噪聲(sheng)小、不損傷工(gong)(gong)件(jian)、結構緊(jin)湊、通用性(xing)好、使用壽命(ming)長、易維護修理和(he)制造成(cheng)本(ben)低廉等優點。
