Research and design of capacitance plug-in assembly manipulator

Abstract

In order to improve the efficiency of PCB (Printed Circuit Board) capacitor plug-in, reduce labor input and improve the accuracy of plug-in, a capacitor plug-in assembly manipulator was designed. The manipulator was mainly composed of X-axis module, Y-axis module and Z-axis module. The mechanical gripper of Z-axis module could adjust the distance between two mechanical grippers to meet the needs of different capacitance sizes. By adopting double z-axis design, the work efficiency of rectangular coordinate manipulator was improved. The addition of the X-ray axis improved the synchronization of the movement at both ends of the X and enhanced the rigidity of the structure. Siemens PLC S7-200 motion library function controlled manipulator grasp, positioning and plug-in. The efficiency of the plug-in unit was 2.5 s/board, and the manipulator could complete capacitor plug-in efficiently and accurately. The whole system has the advantages of high control accuracy, simple operation, stable operation and low noise, and has important practical significance for enterprises.
