    CAD Data Limitations

    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. Unit assembly Data consists of some sub-assemblies.
      It is configured so that each sub-assembly unit can be used as it is or 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 Data consists of some sub-assemblies.
       It is configured so that each sub-assembly unit can be used as it is or edited.

Application Overview

Purpose

  • Workpieces are placed on trays and adhesive is applied before the pieces are clamped together.
  • Fixture allows for multiple trays, and each tray can accommodate several workpieces.

Points for use

  • Use toggle clamps with spring loaded tips to secure the workpieces.

Target workpiece

  • Molded plastic product
    Dims.: φ15 x H13 mm
    Weight: 1g

Design Specifications

Operating Conditions or Design Requirements

  • Toggle clamp arm open/close angle: 180°
  • Toggle clamp stroke: 16mm
  • Spring deflection: 2mm
  • External dims.: W300 x D150 x H179mm (Single fixture)

Required Performance

  • Workpiece clamping load
    • Since the work pieces are made of plastic, use a light spring force when clamping to avoid deformation.

Selection Criteria for Main Components

  • Toggle clamp
    • The horizontal handle provides better workability for this design.
    • Polyacetal pads are used to help prevent the workpiece from being damaged.

Design Evaluation

Verification of main components

  • Verify the toggle clamp metal head spring load is adequate.
  • Spring load
    • Formula: F = kx + S
    • Assumed load: F = 25.9N
    • Initial load: S = 19.4N
    • Assumed deflection in compression: x = 2mm
    • k=(F-S)/x=(25.9-19.4)/2=3.23
      Stroke 3mm, 19.4~29.1N metal head (TGSPM4) is selected for spring constant: k = 3.23N/mm

Other Design Consideration

  • Since the curing process takes a significant amount of time, one fixture can hold eight workpieces.
