    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

  • Purpose
    • Accurately position a workpiece in the X and Y directions.
  • Operation
    • A workpiece is loaded inside the three positioning rollers. Positioning rollers connected on a cylinder rod presses the corner of workpiece and position workpiece in X and Y direction.

Target workpiece

  • Shape: pallet
  • Size: W300 x D200 x H30mm
  • Weight: 1.1kg

Design Specifications

Operating Conditions or Design Requirements

  • Specifications
    • Positioning capability that withstands a machining load of 50N.
    • Outer dimensions: W259 x D200 x H80mm

Selection Criteria for Main Components

  • Cylinder is selected based of the cylinder thrust force.

Design Evaluation

Verification of main components

  • The cylinder thrust is verified based on the workpiece positioning load.
    • (confirmation of positioning cylinder thrust)
    • Conditional value: operating air pressure 0.5MPa, efficiency: 0.8
    • Cylinder theoretical thrust: 245N
      As a workpiece is pressed diagonally in this application example,
      X direction: from cylinder thrust x efficiency x cos(angle of cylinder thrust),
      245 x 0.8 x cos 33.7° = 163.06N
      Y direction: from cylinder thrust x efficiency x sin(angle of cylinder thrust),
      245 x 0.8 x sin 33.7° = 108.7N
    • (Confirmation of positioning capability)
    • Conditional value: pallet weight: 1.1kg, friction coefficient: μ = 0.02 (on ball rollers), machining load 50N
    • The cylinder thrust required for positioning is
      1.1 x 9.8 x 0.02 + 50 = 50.2156N < 108.7N
      -> The condition is met.

Other Design Consideration

  • Workpiece positioning rollers are installed at three positions.
  • The actuator positioning rollers should be arranged so as to press the workpiece diagonally.
  • Two actuator positioning rollers should be able to swing so rollers can evenly contact the workpiece.
    To stabilize the position of the workpiece, springs could be used.
  • To tolerate shaft displacement due to positioning, resin washer with large inner diameter are used on the pusher base cylinder.
