The invention relates to the field of machinery, in particular to an automatic paper circle blanking device and method. The method comprises the following steps that paper is manually placed into a paper box, an automatic paper taking mechanism lifting air cylinder drives a vacuum sucker to move downwards, a first translation cylinder works to make the paper move forwards by one position, the lifting air cylinder moves downwards to enable the paper to be tightly attached to a paper conveying platform, a second translation cylinder works to make the paper continuously move forwards, the paper can be fed into the bottom of a paper feeding mechanism at the moment, the vacuum sucker is closed, and the paper taking mechanism is returned; a pressing wheel of the paper feeding mechanism, namely adriven friction wheel moves downwards, the driven friction wheel tightly presses the paper, a
pneumatic motor drives the driven friction wheel to rotate, and the paper is conveyed into a blanking diethrough
friction force; after the paper feeding mechanism finish feeding the paper, the front end of the paper enters the bottom of a paper discharging mechanism pressing wheel; after a blanking mechanism detects that the paper is fed, the blanking die drives a hollow
punching needle to press downwards for paper circle blanking, the blanked paper circle is sent into a transfer die in a
transfer mechanism, and the paper circle is clamped in the hole of the transfer die; and the
transfer mechanism swings by 180 degrees to send out the transfer die with the paper circle. According to the deviceand the method, the
automation degree is high, the production efficiency can be greatly improved, and the product uniformity degree is high.
