Mounting Bracket / Arm: Load Capacity 5-50 kg

Q: What is the primary function of a mounting bracket/arm for pick-up heads?

To provide rigid, precise positioning and vibration damping for the pick-up head, ensuring consistent operation during high-speed automated assembly.

Q: How do I select the right mounting bracket material?

Choose aluminum for lightweight applications with moderate loads, or stainless steel for higher loads and corrosive environments. Consider polymer inserts for vibration damping.

Component Specifications

Definition

A structural component designed to securely mount and position the pick-up head in automated machinery, providing rigid support, precise alignment, and vibration damping during high-speed pick-and-place operations. It ensures consistent component handling by maintaining optimal working distance and orientation relative to the target surface.

Working Principle

Provides mechanical fixation and positional stability through rigid mounting points, often incorporating adjustable features for fine-tuning alignment. It transfers operational forces from the pick-up head to the machine frame while minimizing deflection and resonance.

Materials

Typically aluminum alloy (e.g., 6061-T6) for lightweight rigidity, or stainless steel (e.g., 304/316) for higher load capacity and corrosion resistance. May include polymer damping inserts.
