Project Purpose
Design and execution of a rotary table for assembling wooden pallets.
Project Description
The project requirements were as follows:
- 0-180 degrees of table rotation
- Approximate weight of the assembly, including pallets: 100 kg (maximum)
- Gearmotor with encoder + brake
- Rotation time: 5 seconds/rotation for 180 degrees
- Controlled by PLC
- Use of a frequency converter
Following the configurations, our colleagues developed the following configuration:
- Gearmotor: 1 x G500-B450
- Motor: 1 x M550-P80/M4
- Converter: 1 x I950-C0.75/400-3
- Electromechanical Brake: 1 x Spring-applied brake 08 / 8.00 Nm
- Feedback: 1 x Incremental encoder IG1024-5V-T
- Brake Resistor: 1 x ERBM390R100W
Due to the shape of the table, the moment of inertia will influence the power required for the gearmotor to rotate the table. Therefore, a higher-power gearmotor, specifically 0.75 kW, provides a power reserve in case the weight exceeds 100 kg.
