    This data is utilized in order to list more useful application examples in the future.

    Cautions on the CAD data

    1. Assembly data shows the assembly drawings in the concept design phase. The sole purpose of the data is to explain the structure and functionality of the assembly and is not considered nor to be used as a final design.
      You will need to edit the Data so that it meets your specific design conditions.
    2. The CAD data unit assembly consists of sub-assemblies.
      Each sub-assembly unit can be used as it is or can be edited.
    3. * The part in the frame is a sub-assembly unit.

    4. The Data for fabricated parts is based on easy-to-edit dimensions and shapes in sketches and histories.
    5. The Data including the third-part components are made by the Company.

    Back to top

  • * Unit assembly CAD data consists of some sub-assemblies.
       Each sub-assembly unit can be used as it is or can be edited.

Application Overview

Purpose

  • A fixture in which a grinder is moved horizontally by a single axis robot, and vertically by hand.
  • The combination blends creativity and touch with precise movements.

Points for use

  • Vertical movements are supported by linear bushings and shafts.
  • Horizontal movements of the grinder are controlled by a single axis actuator.

Target workpiece

  • Cast products:
    External Dimensions: W110 x H75 x t20
    Weight: 0.88kg

Design Specifications

Operating Conditions or Design Requirements

  • External dims.: W645 x D330 x H250
  • Horizontal stroke: 150mm
  • Vertical stroke: 23mm

Required Performance

  • Feeding positioning accuracy: ±0.02mm

Selection Criteria for Main Components

  • Single axis robot
    • Based on transported mass: 86.24N (Max spring force) = 8.8kg,
      select an actuator with a maximum load capacity exceeding what is transported.
    • Maximum push force of selected actuator is 120N.
  • Spring
    • Select a spring type with a spring constant capable of supporting the grinders weight while stopped.

Design Evaluation

Verification of main components

  • Verify that the spring will be able to support the grinder.
  • Spring load
    • Calculation formula: Reaction force F = kx
    • Assumed operating load (4 pcs. Used): 86.24N
    • Assumed max. deflection when pushing in the grinder: x = 44mm (21mm when setting (set length 59mm, free length 80mm), Stroke 23mm)
    • Spring constant: k = 86.24 / 4 / 44 = 0.49 N/mm is selected.

Other Design Consideration

  • Actuator selection is based on load capacity and stroke length.
  • Linear guides are used to stabilize the horizontal motion of the system.
  • Linear bushings are used to stabilize the vertical motion.
  • The actuator and linear guides are connected through cam followers fitted in precise slots provided by the actuator table. This constrains the travel direction.
