Combine grasping and rotation into a single high-efficiency cycle with our professional Oscillating Gripper drawing. In advanced automation, simply picking a part isn’t always enough—often, the part must be reoriented, agitated to remove debris, or flipped 180° for the next assembly stage. This technical CAD resource provides a blueprint for a Dual-Motion End-Effector that integrates a parallel or angular gripper with a precision oscillating rotary actuator. By downloading this file from MechStream, you gain access to a design that handles complex orientation tasks without the need for additional robot axis movements.
The design featured in this package focuses on Dynamic Balance and Rapid Cycle Times. The drawing includes detailed layouts for a compact rotary vane or rack-and-pinion actuator coupled directly to the gripper body. A major challenge in oscillating designs is the “whip” effect caused by rapid deceleration; by utilizing this blueprint, you can implement a design featuring integrated adjustable shock absorbers and high-torque-to-weight ratios. This is an essential asset for designers of electronic component flippers, pharmaceutical bottle cap orienters, and small-parts sorting systems.
Our technical documentation prioritizes internal plumbing and signal integrity. The assembly is designed with an integrated pneumatic slip-ring (rotary manifold), allowing the gripper to rotate indefinitely or oscillate frequently without tangling air lines or sensor cables. Whether you are building a high-speed sorting line or a robotic machine-tending cell, this drawing provides the exact angular stop settings, bearing load ratings, and moment-of-inertia calculations required for a professional-grade installation.
Ключевые особенности:
- Integrated Rotary Manifold: Engineered with internal air channels to provide 360-degree or high-frequency oscillation without external hose fatigue.
- Adjustable Angular Stops: Features mechanical hard-stops that allow the user to fine-tune the oscillation range (e.g., 45°, 90°, or 180°).
- High-Speed Deceleration: Detailed specifications for hydraulic shock absorbers to minimize vibration and “bounce” at the end of each swing.
- Lightweight T6061 Aluminum Body: Optimized for low inertia, enabling faster accelerations and reducing wear on the primary robot arm.
- Dual-Sensing Feedback: Pre-defined mounting for proximity sensors to verify both “Gripper Open/Closed” and “Rotation Position” status.
