Design a two-axis pneumatic pick and place robot. The robot is to pick up a part with a mass of 2.0 kg. The length of the horizontal motion is 250mm. The length of the vertical motion is 240mm. The available air pressure is 650000 Pa. The mass of the gripper and slide is 2.5 kg. The mass of the horizontal axis is 4.0 kg. Assume g = 9.81m/s2.
P is pressure [Pa], F is force[N], A is area {m2], m is mass[kg], a is acceleration[m/s2],s is distance[m], u is initial velocity[m/s], t is time[s].
⦁ What is the minimum force required to hold up the
horizontal axis, gripper and slide, and part?
F=_____N
⦁ What is the force required to operate the vertical
motion upwards in 0.2 seconds?
F=______N
⦁ What is the minimum area of the cylinder required to
produce these forces for the vertical motion?
A=_____mm2
⦁ What is the minimum diameter for the vertical
cylinder required to produce these forces?
D=______mm
⦁ What cylinder diameter would you choose for the
vertical axis? Standard 5mm increments
Bore =______mm
