CNC tool delivery full stack solution
1、 Project Background
For the tool distribution process in the machining workshop, the introduction of the Fuzhi No.2 wheeled humanoid robot replaces manual labor to solve pain points such as delayed response at night and safety hazards of manual tool delivery, achieving unmanned operation of the entire tool distribution process and ensuring continuous and efficient operation of the production line.
2、 Core Challenge
Artificial risk: Manual knife feeding poses safety hazards, and delayed response during night shifts can easily affect production pace.
Bipedal limitations: Traditional solutions have short battery life, difficult control, slow movement, and are unable to handle long-distance and high-frequency delivery tasks.
Difficulty in flexible adaptation: There are many specifications and frequent changes of cutting tools in the workshop, and traditional equipment cannot quickly adapt to different cutting tools and workstations.
3、 Full stack solution
（1） Software and hardware configuration
Hardware layer: Fuzhi No.2 humanoid robot+3D LiDAR+dexterous hand, realizing the integrated operation of tool recognition, grasping, handling, and docking throughout the entire process.
Software layer: ForwardFlow visual programming platform+fast change loading and unloading process software package+self-developed visual algorithm, supports drag and drop programming without code, quickly adapts to production line changeover requirements.
（2） Core features of the plan
Fully automatic circulation: automatic identification, handling, docking with temporary storage locations, and batch delivery without manual intervention.
Multi category compatibility: Suitable for about 50 types of cutting tools (~800g), with a single shipment of ≤ 6 pieces, meeting the distribution needs of multi specification cutting tools in the workshop.
Multiple security protection: Integrated sound and light warning, emergency stop and avoidance, human-machine isolation, and equipment emergency stop functions to avoid operational risks.
Omnidirectional spatial obstacle avoidance: 3D LiDAR integrated with dynamic obstacle avoidance technology ensures safe passage in complex workshop environments, achieving omnidirectional safe escort.
4、 Project benefits
Efficiency Upgrade: A single robot can replace 2-3 shift workers, achieving 24-hour uninterrupted tool delivery and significantly reducing labor and night shift management costs.
Safe closed-loop control: dual verification of visual and force control to prevent collision accidents caused by incorrect blade shape, achieve zero human error, and ensure the safety of equipment and personnel.
Management standard upgrade: Release manpower to high-value positions, reduce manual dependence, achieve standardized and data-driven management of tool delivery processes, and assist in the digital upgrading of factories.
5、 Technical generalization ability
Based on the Fuwei Intelligent Tailored Intelligent Technology Base, the solution has four core generalization abilities and can be quickly replicated to multiple industry scenarios:
Semantic geometry generalization: Layout changes do not require reprogramming, visually adaptive coordinates, and a universal layout can adapt to multi workstation adjustments in the workshop.
Generalization of process knowledge: Built in knowledge graph modeling process logic, automatic parameter calling for model changes, process migration can be completed with fewer samples, and adapted to different production lines.
Abnormal memory generalization: a self reflective memory correction strategy to achieve fault-tolerant generalization and reduce the cost of solving long tail problems in the tool delivery process.
Edge control generalization: Lightweight VLA model for edge deployment, fast replication across ontology robots, and adaptation to complex job scenarios such as machining and assembly.
6、 Industry Extension Applications
This solution can be extended to the entire manufacturing industry chain, covering core scenarios upstream, midstream, and downstream
Upstream preparation: intelligent tool warehouse management, automatic feeding of raw materials/blanks, and unmanned connection between warehousing and production lines.
Midstream processing: CNC machine tool distribution and replacement, machine cutting chip cleaning, cleaning machine/oven loading and unloading, opening up the automation loop of the processing process.
Downstream post-processing: thermal imaging temperature measurement, battery pack disassembly and recycling, and other scenarios to assist in intelligent management of the entire manufacturing lifecycle.
