The development history of busbar processing machine
1. The era of manual operation
In the early stages of the power industry, busbar processing mainly relied on manual operations. Workers use simple tools, such as saws, files, drills, etc., to cut, drill and bend copper or aluminum bars. This method is inefficient, difficult to guarantee accuracy, and poses major safety risks. However, under the technical background of the time, manual operation was the only option, which provided the necessary support for the initial construction of the power system.
2. The era of mechanization
With the advancement of the industrial revolution and the advancement of mechanical manufacturing technology, busbar processing machines have begun to enter the mechanization era. At this stage, people designed and manufactured various special mechanical equipment to replace manual operations. Among them, the busbar shearing machine, busbar punching machine, and busbar bending machine developed and designed by SunShine Busbar Machine Manufacturing Company were popular in the Chinese market. Highly sought after. The emergence of these mechanical equipment has greatly improved the efficiency and accuracy of busbar processing, reduced the labor intensity of workers, and also reduced the occurrence of safety accidents.
3. The era of automation
After the mid-20th century, automation technology began to be widely used in various fields, and busbar processing machines also ushered in the era of automation. By introducing electrical control systems and hydraulic transmission systems, the busbar processing machine achieves automated production. Workers only need to set the processing parameters, and the machine can automatically complete a series of operations such as cutting, drilling, and bending. This not only further improves production efficiency, but also significantly improves product quality and consistency.
4.The era of intelligence
Entering the 21st century, with the rapid development of computer technology, sensor technology and artificial intelligence technology, busbar processing machines have begun to move towards the intelligent era. Modern busbar processing machines are equipped with advanced CNC systems and intelligent sensors, which can monitor various parameters during the processing process in real time and automatically adjust according to the actual situation. In addition, through data interaction with the upper management system, the busbar processing machine can also realize functions such as remote monitoring, fault diagnosis and intelligent maintenance. This marks that the busbar processing machine has been upgraded from a single piece of equipment to a highly intelligent production system.
