In view of the problem of workpiece turnover on the assembly line of the factory, a machine for automatic workpiece turnover is designed, whose design directly affects the work level of the whole automatic production line. This paper discusses the mechanical structure of the workpiece turnover device in the automatic production line. The turnover of the workpiece can be realized by using the rotary cylinder drive system. The aerodynamic system of the workpiece is designed. The working principle of the aerodynamic system and the design of PLC circuit are analyzed. The results show that the turning of the workpiece can be realized by using the pneumatic system to control the movement of the mechanical device. The aerodynamic device has the advantages of simple structure, easy operation and strong practicability.
