    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

  • Prevent pallets from reverse flowing.

Target workpiece

  • Plastic case size: W120 x D220 x H20 mm
  • Pallet size: W218 x D300 x t12 mm (Aluminum)
  • Weight of transferred object: 2.3kg/pc.

Design Specifications

Operating Conditions or Design Requirements

  • Conveyor size: W283 x D1270 x H185 mm
  • Transfer speed: 150mm/s
  • Stopper cylinder stroke: 20 mm

Required Performance

  • Pallet positioning accuracy: ±0.5 mm

Selection Criteria for Main Components

  • Two row type conveyor is selected since the cylinder and feed fingers are located below the transfer surface.

Design Evaluation

Verification of main components

  • Verify that the plastic chain conveyor can withstand the workpiece load.
  • Plastic chain conveyor
    • Transferred weight: 2.3kg x 3pcs. (max.) = 6.9kg
    • Transfer speed: 150mm/s = 9m/min
    • Based on conveyor transferability graph above conditions fall within the range for 25W conveyor.

Other Design Consideration

  • A stopper with a cylinder is placed at the fore direction of travel. Pallet reverse flowing is prevented by a feed finger located at the back.
  • If scratching the pallets is a concern, use feed fingers with Nylon claws.
