Abstract
An automated laser shock peening (LSP) process equipment system for an aero-engine blade, including: a base, where a loading and unloading manipulator, working manipulator, reverse engineering mechanism, coating apparatus, and LSP apparatus are disposed; the loading and unloading manipulator is configured to grab a blade and place it on the reverse engineering mechanism, which includes a reverse engineering instrument and controller that are connected, the instrument can generate three-dimensional digital data of the blade, and the controller generates a working path for coating and LSP according to the data, and transmits the path to the working manipulator; the loading and unloading manipulator places the blade into the pallet, and the working manipulator drives the blade to a corresponding position according to the path. Independent locating and clamping systems of the pallet and the blade and the pallet and the manipulator fix a position of the blade relative to the manipulator.
