In the ASM MS90 sorting machine, the swing arm is the core actuator for achieving rapid and precise chip pick-and-place.
It has the following key features:
Structure and Design: High Rigidity, Lightweight
The swing arm design is meticulous to ensure accuracy during high-speed movement.
Material Selection: Aluminum alloy is commonly used to balance rigidity and weight, while high-rigidity, lightweight materials such as carbon fiber are increasingly common.
Design Considerations: Lightweight design and improved structural rigidity ensure the requirements of high-precision, high-speed sorting.
Technology and Drive: Dual-Head Design, Direct Drive
The MS90's swing arm system reflects the current mainstream development trend of sorting equipment.
Dual-Head Welded Arm Design: This is the latest design emphasized in ASM's official documentation. The two heads can work together to improve output efficiency per unit time.
Drive Method: Widely uses direct drive motors and linear motors to achieve high-speed, high-precision motion control.
Working Principle and Function
It mainly completes its movements under the guidance of the vision system, in conjunction with the vacuum nozzle. After the vision system accurately locates the chip, the swing arm swings at high speed, the suction nozzle uses vacuum to pick up the chip, and then quickly places it in the target position.
