Technical calculations

■Life of Flanged Linear Bushings

When the linear system is in motion with applied loads, the rolling surfaces and races are subject to repeated stress. This stress can cause scale-like flaking due to material fatigue. The total run distance until the flaking appears is the "Life" of the linear system.

Rated life can be calculated with the basic dynamic load rating and the actual load applied on the linear bushings, as shown below.

  • L: Rated Life (km)
  • fH: Hardness Factor (See Fig.1)
  • fT: Temperature Factor (See Fig. 2)
  • fC: Contact Factor (See Table-3)
  • fW: Load Factor (See table-4)
  • C: Basic Dynamic Load Rating (N)
  • P: Applicable Load (N)

Hardness factor (fH)

For linear systems, the shaft, that the balls contact, must have sufficient hardness. If the shaft does not have sufficient hardness, the load rating decreases and the life will reduced.

Fig. 1. Hardness Factor

Temperature factor (fT)

When the temperature of the linear systems exceeds 100°C, the hardness will decrease and as a result, the allowable loads and life will be reduced.

Fig.-2. Temperature factor

Contact factor (fC)

In general, it is common to use two or more linear bushings on one linear shafts. In these cases, the load on each bushing will vary depending on the machining precision and will not have equally distributed loads. As a result, the allowable load per bushing will vary depending on the number of bushings used on shaft.

Table-3. Contact Factor

Number of bearings installed on one shaft. Contact factor fC
1 1
2 0.81
3 0.72
4 0.66
5 0.61

Load Factor (fW)

To calculate load applied to the linear bushings, in addition to the object weight, the inertia force attributed to the motion velocity, moment loads and the variations of each over time must be obtained. However, for reciprocating motion applications, it is difficult to obtain accurate calculation due to the effects of vibrations and shocks. Therefor, use Table2 to simplify the life calculations.

Conditions of Use fw
No shocks / vibrations,
ow speed: 15 m/min. or less
1.0~1.5
No significant shocks / vibrations,
medium speed: 60 m/min. or less
1.5~2.0
With shocks / vibrations, high
speed: 60 m/min. or more
2.0~3.5

Life in hours can be obtained by calculating the travel distance per hour. Then the stroke length and stroke cycles are fixed, use the equation below.

  • Lh: Life (Hr)
  • L: Rated Life (km)
  • Ls: Stroke length (m)
  • n1: Number of cycles per minute (cpm)

IDEA NOTE No slide guides required

Slide guides are not required because the rod-less cylinder has guides.

IDEA NOTE Reduce required travel distance.

You can reduce the travel distance by utilizing rod-less cylinders.

IDEA NOTE Swinging fulcrum configuration

There are built-in bearings at the constraint fulcrum and rotational center.

Application Overview

Purpose

  • Transfer and rotate a workpiece simultaneously.

Target workpiece

  • Shape: Connector
  • Size: W40 x D40 x H30 mm
  • Weight: 150g

Design Specifications

Operating Conditions or Design Requirements

  • Horizontal movement stroke: 300mm
  • Rotation angle: 90°
  • External dimensions: W500 x D250 x H123mm

Required Performance

  • Positioning accuracy: ± 0.1/300mm
  • Angle: 90° ± 0.05°

Selection Criteria for Main Components

  • Ensure that the cylinder with shock absorbing stopper can provide the required positioning accuracy.

Design Evaluation

Verification of main components

  • Verify that the cylinder thrust and shock absorber meet the design requirements.
    • Conditional values: Friction coefficient of the guide on the rod-less cylinder μ= 0.01, air cylinder efficiency η = 0.82, mass of moving part = 1.6kg, workpiece mass = 150g
    • φ 20 cylinder thrust: Fs = 157N at applied pressure of 0.5MPa
    • Cylinder thrust necessary to transfer a workpiece F = (0.15 + 1.6) x 0.01 x 9.806/0.82 = 0.21N < 157N = Fs
      ⇒Sufficiently satisfied.

      Check the shock absorber capacity.
    • Conditional values: Stroke of the shock absorber with these specifications St = 8mm, maximum absorbed energy Ea = 7J, Equivalent mass of the colliding object Me= 18kg [atV = 0.5 m/s]
    • Check the absorbable kinetic energy.
      E=1/2×m・V2+Fs×St=1/2×(0.15+1.6)×0.52+157×0.008=1.47J
      Ea/2=7J/2=3.5>1.47J
      ⇒One half or less of the maximum absorbable energy. Thus the kinetic energy can be absorbed.
    • Check the absorbable equivalent mass of the colliding object.
      Me=m+2・Fs・St/V2=(0.15+1.6)+2×157×0.008/0.52=6.774kg<Me=18kg
      ⇒Can be absorbed.

Other Design Consideration

  • A cylinder with high mechanical rigidity is selected to meet the high positioning accuracy requirements.
