Description

  • English Description

    Industrial Mechanisms: introduction, historical development of the automation and assembly mechanisms, advantages of automatic assembly. Transfer systems: conveyors, continuous transfer, intermittent transfer, indexing mechanisms. Vibratory feeders: mechanics of vibratory conveying, effect of vibrating frequency, effect of vibrating angle, bowel feeder design, spiral elevators. Non-vibrating feeders: reciprocating tube hopper feeder, centerboard hopper feeder, reciprocating fork hopper feeder. Orientation of parts: effect of active orienting devices on feed rate, natural resting aspects of parts for automatic handling. Feed tracks, parts-placing, gripping mechanisms, biomimetic robotic mechanisms, passive dynamic walking
