IDEA NOTE One actuator performs swinging and workpiece rotation.

Drive pulley rotates the gripper arm 90°-from one conveyor line to another. Since pulley ration is 2:1, part of the gripper arm rotates 180° (driven pulley translates the motion to ball spline and workpiece gripper).

Application Overview

Purpose

  • (Purpose)
    Workpieces on a conveyor are rotated 90 degrees and transferred to the next process.
    The gripper rotates 180 degrees, ensuring the workpiece is transferred without changing its orientation.
  • (Operation)
    Gripper down → Grip workpiece → Gripper up → 90 degree rotation and transfer → Gripper rotate 180 degrees → Gripper down → Workpiece released → Gripper up

Target workpiece

  • Shape: Connector
    size: W40 x D30 x H26
    Weight: 0.1kg

Design Specifications

Operating Conditions or Design Requirements

  • Transfer angle: 90 degrees
  • Rotation angle: 180 degrees
  • Up/down cylinder stroke: 10mm
  • Clamp stroke: 3mm One side
  • External dims.: W136 (Before rotation) x D403 x H398

Selection Criteria for Main Components

  • Timing pulley ratio is 2:1
  • Minimize inertia by reducing weight of the swinging parts, etc.
  • Select an air gripper force that accounts for the friction coefficient and the workpiece weight.

Design Evaluation

Verification of main components

  • The Motor selection calculations are shown below since the inertia moment applied to the stepping motor is critical.
  • Time for 90 degree motion t0: 0.5 sec.
  • Acceleration time t1: 0.1 sec.
  • Inertia moment of swinging object: JL = 4.16 × 10⁻²kg・m²
  • Operation angle: θ=90°, Stepping motor min. step angle: θs=0.072°
  • Operation pulse count: A=θ/θs=1250 pulses
  • Pulse rate: f2 = A / (t0 - t1) = 3125Hz
  • Motion speed: NM = θs / 360 × f2 × 60 = 37.5r/min
  • Selected motor's rotor inertia moment: J0 = 1.1 x 10-4
  • Gear ratio: I = 1/10
  • Acceleration torque calculation: Ta = (J0・i² + JL) / 9.55 × NM / t1 = 2.065N・m
  • Required torque calculation: TM = Ta x Safety margin = 4.13N・m (Safety margin of 2)
  • Based on Motor Torque Characteristic chart, the selected motor is OK
  • Confirmation of inertia ratio: JL/(J0×i²) = 3.78 ≦ 10 is OK

Other Design Consideration

  • The pulley at the center of rotation is fixed.
  • For actual installation, a cover will be needed to ensure safety and dust prevention.
