IDEA NOTE Feeding workpieces using a single axis robot

Workpieces are fed by the pitch of the thickness of a single workpiece using a single axis robot.

IDEA NOTE Through hole instead of flats

Clamping with a through hole which is less expensive than machining flats for the shaft to insert a workpiece.

    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.

  • * 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

  • Lifts workpiece by using a single axis linear actuator.

Points for use

  • Single axis robot is programmed for a set of predetermined movements.

Target workpiece

  • Washer
  • Exterior shape: Ø16 x t3mm
  • Workpiece weight: 4g

Design Specifications

Operating Conditions or Design Requirements

  • Exterior shape dimensions: W175 x D135 x H473mm
  • Single axis robot stroke distance: 62.5mm
    <Maximum stroke distance: 100mm.>
  • Single axis robot maximum transferable mass: 7.5kg
  • 1 pallet contains 5 rows of 14 workpieces in a single vertical row
  • A proximity switch is installed in another unit on the upstream side to detect position

Required Performance

  • Single axis robot positioning repeatability: +/- 0.02mm
  • Single axis robot accuracy without rotation: +/- 0.05°-> +/- 0.00083mm

Selection Criteria for Main Components

  • Single Axis Robot
    • A robot, for which the movable section + workpiece weight does not exceed the maximum transferable mass, is selected.
  • Shaft
    • A shaft with additional machining for minimizing the range of tolerance for length is selected in order to prevent tilting in the installation of the robot (tolerance: +/- 0.03mm)

Design Evaluation

Verification of main components

  • The robot transferable mass is verified for the capability to transfer the workpiece.
  • Single Axis Robot Transfer Weight.
    • Condition value: 4g, workpiece insert shaft weight: 44.6g, rod plate weight: 212.2g
    • Maximum transferable weight of single axis robot M = workpiece weight (70 pieces) + workpiece insert shaft (5 shafts) + Rod plate weight, thus M = 4 x 70 + 44.6 x 5 + 212.2 = 715.2g ≈ 0.72kg
    • Maximum transfer weight of single axis robot: 0.72kg < Maximum transferable mass of single axis robot: 7.5kg
      -> Safety margin ratio of 10 is ensured.

Other Design Consideration

  • A step type and a straight type are utilized for positioning of single axis robot.
  • A stopper pin with urethane is used as a mechanical stopper.
