Research of Intelligent Control Methods for Industrial Robots in Industrial Automation Casting

Abstract

Against the backdrop of the accelerated advancement of Industry 4.0 and intelligent manufacturing, the intelligent upgrade of the foundry industry has become a key path to enhancing core competitiveness. Traditional casting processes, due to issues such as insufficient parameter control accuracy, low levels of equipment intelligence, and frequent manual intervention, are unable to meet the demands of high-quality and high-efficiency production. Industrial robots, with their programmable, high-precision, and automated operation advantages, offer a systematic solution for the intelligent transformation of the entire casting process. This paper reviews the application of intelligent control methods of industrial robots in key industrial processing stages such as batching, melting, temperature measurement, pouring, cleaning, and grinding. The intelligent control technology of industrial robots can significantly enhance the automation level, product quality, stability, and production safety of casting production. However, challenges still exist in aspects such as the compatibility of multi-brand equipment and system integration costs under complex working conditions. In the future, with the deep integration of artificial intelligence, 5G communication and digital twin technology, this technology will evolve towards full-process autonomous decision-making, multi-machine group collaborative operation and energy consumption optimization, promoting the transformation of the casting industry towards a green, intelligent and unmanned production model, and providing technical support for China's leap from a casting power to a casting superpower.
