9.3.2. Structured platform: Feed and pre-orient parts
In the case of a structured platform, the goal is to sufficiently pre-orientate parts in grooves,
holes etc. such that the desired cycle time is obtained. In this case, the ‘Flip’ vibration is used
before smoother platform vibrations such as ‘Forward’ that enables the parts to be swept over
the structured platform. These sweeping vibrations may be very short or not even necessary
in some cases.
Table 9-2: Example of scenario 2
Please refer to the operating manual for more information on structured platforms.
9.3.3. Flat platform: Distribute parts (Asycube 240, 380 and 530)
This example shows how to use a very simple sequence to centre the parts and distribute
them across the platform, available for Asycubes 240, 380 and 530 due to their two additional
standard platform vibrations: ‘Short axis centring' (J) and ‘Long axis centring' (K), which
enable the parts to be centred on the platform regardless of their position.
