Popis: The hot forming parts of high strength steel are difficult to cut with the presses and the traditional high-energy beam due to its high tensile strength which can be up to 1500Mpa and its complex structure. And the 3D laser cutting is an effective way to solve the problem. However some problems in the laser process affect the efficiency and quality seriously, including interference between the robot arms and the cutting head with the untrimmed parts, difficulty in determining the entry point and over burning etc. In this research three measures are taken to cut the anti-collision beam, including using photogrammetric technology to get its uncutted 3D model for offline programming to avoid interference, selecting appropriate entry point to trim without interrupt, amending normals and adjusting the process parameters at corners to prevent over burning. The results show that the efficiency and quality are improved and a creative new offline programming method is put forward.
