System Design

1 gearbox level or 2 gearbox levels

The servo unscrewing devices can be constructed, depending on the requirements, with one (1) or two (2) gearbox levels, and is based on the following parameters:

  • Number of cavities
  • Thread size and length and thus maximum breakaway torque
  • Cavity spacing and arrangement of the cavities
  • Required unscrewing speed

System design is typically handled by project engineers, taking into account the technological possibilities and complying to the customer requirements.

Overview of device includes:

  1. Ball cage
  2. Threaded core or threaded sleeves
  3. Guide nut
  4. Guide thread
  5. Servo multi-drive SMA
  6. Gearbox level 1 with spur wheel
  7. Gearbox level 2 with timing belt disc, pinion shaft and driving pinion
  8. Motor plug

 

Gearbox-overview-unscrewing-device-numbered

System Design 1 Gearbox Level

In servo unscrewing devices with one gearbox level, several spur wheels are driven by a central pinion shaft RZW. For the design of the system by our project engineers the following information (if available) is needed and applied:

 

Plastic part

  • Thread diameter and length
  • Wall thickness and calculated shrinkage
  • Type of plastic and fillers

Injection mold

  • Maximum tool size and tool height
  • The number, layout and desired distance of the cavities
  • Threaded cores with cooling

Process

  • Mold and melt temperature
  • Unscrewing time and overall cycle time
  • Cleanliness level (clean zone, clean room)
30c_sam050060-gearbox

The following figure illustrates arrangement examples of systems with one a single level of gears.

 

  • The cavities can be arranged in a square, rectangular or circular pattern
  • Execution of the threaded cores and optional cooling according to customer specification:
  1. Servo Multidrive SMA
  2. Servo timing belt unit SZE
  3. Clamping plate LMP
  4. Spur wheel STR
  5. Pinion shaft RZW
  6. Threaded core set
  7. Cooling option RKE

System Design 2 Gearbox Levels

In servo unscrewing devices with two gearbox levels, several pinions in 2nd gear level are driven by a central pinion shaft RZW.

These are coupled with the pinion shafts of the first gearbox level which are driving several spur wheels.

Our Design Engineers can help determine the optimum system configurations for your application using the following parameters:

• Plastic Part     • Injection Mold        • Process

 

  1. 1st gearbox level
  2. 2nd gearbox level
