IDEA NOTE Sheet bending driven by a rotary actuator
A sheet in a positioning clamp state is pressed against the upper surface of the datum plane (clamper) by the roll bar. The pressing angle is adjusted as the adjustable rotary actuator is rotated at a low speed and stopped by the stopper.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR USE OF CAD DATA
Your access to the CAD data that MISUMI Corporation (hereinafter referred to as the Company) posts on this site (including 3D CAD data, intermediate 3D CAD data and 2D CAD data; hereinafter referred to as the Data) are of products manufactured and/or sold by the Company (hereinafter referred to as the Products) assumes that you have read and accepted these terms and conditions which govern your use of the Data. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, you must stop using this website and the Data. You must not use the Data for any unlawful purpose or in any manner inconsistent with these terms and conditions.
1. CAD Data
The Data is prepared for assisting the Company's users in the CAD design process by providing dimensions and other Product information. In order to provide the best speed and stability working within this site, the Product drawings were simplified to reduce the size of the Data. For instance, some of the Products are shown without the oil groove shape, screws or spring shape. Also, please be aware that the tolerance, surface roughness and/or chamfer of the Data may vary from the actual Products.
2. Disclaimer on Data
While the Company has carefully prepared the Data, accuracy of the Data is not guaranteed and is subject to the variances as described above. The Company may also modify, add or delete the Data at any time without prior notice. The Company assumes no liability for any direct, indirect, consequential or special damages that you may claim resulted from your use of the Data or any changes to or deletions of the Data regardless of the reason. The Company provides no warranty as to the quality, accuracy, functionality, safety or reliability of the combination of Products and parts. Example applications and combinations of the Products are provided for illustrative purposes only.
3. Copyright

The use (including duplication, modification, uploading, posting, transmission, distribution, licensing, sales and publishing) of the Data except for the purpose to use the Data described above without prior approval of the Company is not allowed. The Data cannot be used for any purposes (including sales promotion) except for designing your machine. If you violate this provision or the laws or regulations, the Company may prohibit you from the use of the Data, the Company’s site and/or take legal action. So long as you comply with these terms and conditions, the Company grants to you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Data for the sole purpose of assisting you in designing machines that incorporate products.
In case that the CAD data is found to
have been to be used for any purpose other than mentioned above or
against the related laws, MISUMI may take legal actions, including
the one for blocking the involved user from using CAD data and from
accessing to the MISUMI site.

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.
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.
* The part in the frame is a sub-assembly unit.
The Data for fabricated parts is based on easy-to-edit dimensions and shapes in sketches and histories.
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
To roll the end portion of a resin sheet into a U shape.
Points for use
After the operator sets a resin sheet on the machining table, pressing the start button (1) clamps the resin sheet, (2) rotates the roll bar by 180° (bending the resin sheet into a U shape), (3) starts leftward travel of the heater at 120mm/2.3 sec, (4) activates the heater ON timer, (5) moves the heater to the right end of the resin sheet, (6) performs heating travel on the resin sheet at 260mm/4.9 sec, (7) makes the heater travel at 20mm/0.4 sec, (8) stops the heater at the left end (stroke end), (9) starts rightward travel of the heater, (10) performs heating travel on the resin sheet, (11) turns the heater OFF (by timer operation), and (12) stops the heater at the right end. Optimum conditions such as heating and air blow performed in combination, heater stop during rightward travel, and air blow travel should be determined through trial and error.
Target workpiece
Shape: resin film
Size: 260 x 45 x t0.7mm
Design Specifications
Operating Conditions or Design Requirements
Sheet clamp stroke: 100mm
Sheet rotation angle: 180°
Heater: 1kw
Heater travel unit stroke: 474mm
Travel time: 7.5sec (variable speed)
Outer dimensions: W987 x D455 x H514mm
Required Performance
Positioning accuracy: ±0.2mm
Selection Criteria for Main Components
Selection of heater
Heating temperature of 250°±30° adjustment by room-temperature compressed air blow (through trials and errors) The hot air blow ON/OFF timing is determined by the timer activated during travel. Heating time 15sec (in reciprocating operation)
Design Evaluation
Verification of main components
A motor with a torque that can withstand the load is selected.
Load of table unit: M = 7kg Lead of lead screw: L = 0.004m Drive section efficiency: η = 0.26 Friction coefficient of guide: μ = 0.15 Motor startup torque Tm = 0.28N·m Rotation speed range of speed controller motor: n = 90 to 1400rpm Motor rotation speed: N = 60 x V/L = 60 x 53/4 ≒ 800rpm Load: F = μ x M x 9.8 = 0.15 x 7 x 9.8 = 10.3N Load torque: T = LF/2πη = 10.3 x 0.004/2 x 3.14 x 0.26 = 0.026N・m Therefore, T < TM
Other Design Consideration
A cylinder with a guide is used for sheet clamping to reduce cost.
For sheet rotation, a stopper is provided on the rotary actuator to make the bending amount adjustable.
The heater is fixed with screw clamps for facilitating replacement, and as its traveling accuracy and stopping accuracy specifications are rough, lead screws and a small-size speed controller motor are used.
The temperature of hot air is 450°C at the heater air blow port. To adjust the temperature, it is also equipped with an air blow nozzle.
The heating time should be determined through trial and error. The heating time is around 15 seconds (reciprocation).
