Electromechanical Positioning Systems

HLE Gantry Robots

Daedal’s seven standard system configurations are designed to satisfy the vast majority of gantry robot applications. By standardizing on these configurations, Daedal has simplified sizing and selection, shortened lead times, and reduced costs for users of these systems. The travels and loads indicated are nominal, and should not be considered limiting factors. Longer travels and increased loads are attainable depending upon the combination of parameters.

System One
Two Axis: XX’ - Y’

System One provides two axes of horizontal motion. The primary axis (X) is comprised of two HLE Linear Modules linked by a common drive shaft, and the secondary axis (Y) comprised of one HLE Linear Module. The HLE linear modules are capable of high speeds and accelerations over long travels. This system is designed for rapid transport of light to moderate loads in a single (horizontal) plane.


System Two
Two Axis: XX’ - YY’

System Two utilizes two linear modules in both axes (X & Y). The second linear module of the Y-axis is an idler unit which increases load capacity (normal and moment) and permits longer travel. The addition of this unit doubles the load capacity over System One. Traction force can be improved by linking the second axis (Y) module to the first with a common drive shaft. The link shaft doubles the potential acceleration of the system. This system is intended for moderate to heavy loads.
 


System Three
Two Axis: XX’ - Z’

System Three provides two axes of motion in a vertical plane. A ballscrew driven ET Cylinder is utilized to provide high thrust in the vertical direction. ET Rod Guides, in conjunction with the dual X-axis, minimize the effects of moment and side loading, permitting higher acceleration of the payload.


System Four
Two Axis: XX’ - Z’

System Four is a variation of System Three that offers an alternative mounting arrangement. It is a popular choice for front loading applications and is often implemented as a wall mount unit.


System Five
Two Axis: XX’ - Z’

System Five is an X-Z system utilizing the HZR belt driven unit for the vertical axis. The rigidity of the HZR permits higher vertical speed, greater X-axis acceleration, and larger moment loading than System Three.


System Six
Three Axis: XX’ - YY’ - Z’

System Six is a three axis version of System Two. HLE Linear Modules provide motion in the X and Y directions while a vertically mounted ET cylinder provides the third axis (Z) of motion. The ET cylinder provides high vertical thrust capacity at moderate speeds. With the Z-axis retracted, this system can transport moderate to heavy loads at high rates of speed over long travel distances.


System Seven
Three Axis: XX’ - YY’ - Z’

System Seven is a three axis system which utilizes the HZR unit for the vertical axis. As a result, this system can provide longer vertical travel, higher speed, and greater  Acceleration than System Six. The inherent rigidity of the HZR also contributes to superior system stiffness, stability, and ease of tuning. If the Z-axis is retracted during horizontal motion, System Seven can easily handle moderate to heavy loads. With the Z-axis fully extended it can handle light to moderate loads.
