The invention relates to an intelligent manipulator of an intelligent surface treatment production system. The intelligent manipulator comprises a central control system and a suspended ceiling-type manipulator part; the central control system is provided with a manipulator driving module, and an activating treatment time module, a first water washing time module, a copper pre-plating time module,an alkali copper treatment time module, a second water washing time module, a non-nickel-white treatment time module, a third water washing time module, a passivation time module, a fourth water washing time module, a pre-dehydration spraying time module, a hot water washing time module and a drying time module which correspond to stations of a surface treatment production system; and the suspended ceiling-type manipulator part clamps rollers to enter the corresponding stations for timing machining according to time values set by the various time modules. The suspended ceiling-type manipulator part is convenient to mount and small in space occupation, and clamps workpieces to be moved to the corresponding stations for machining, and the overall process is operated automatically, so that manpower and material resources are saved, the labor intensity is reduced, the machining time is accurately controlled, the product yield is raised, and the quality is guaranteed.
