Stop module with damping ASMS-20
For stopping and separating of one or more accumulated workpiece carriers on a defined workpiece carrier stop surface.
Technical data
EXECUTION AND WEIGHT
Device design: Basic housing made of hard anodized aluminum and
stop plate made of hardened steel.
Air damping system, adjustable with throttle screw.
Weights of the devices:
ASMS-20-EW-08: 0,42 kg
ASMS-20-EW-08-I: 0,53 kg
EFFECTIVE PISTON AREAS, FORCES
The forces are dependent on the pneumatic pressure, the piston surface and the spring force.
During the respective working movements, the following piston surfaces are subjected to compressed air:
Piston surface for lowering (EW-type): 731 mm²
Piston surface for extending the damping piston: 380 mm²
FUNCTION
The pneumatically separator ASMS is a separator with damping.
If a workpiece carrier strikes against the stop plate of the separator, the air chamber is compressed and the compressed air escapes through the opening gap of the adjusting screw.
Thus, the workpiece carrier is gently damped to a stop.
The damping is with air and can be finely adjusted via a throttle screw.
If the workpiece pallet will be damped, the stop plate will be pushed in.
The stop plate will stay in this position.
There are no forces that would try to move the stop plate even the workpiece pallet is not pushing against the stop plate.
The extension of the stop plate is effected by an internal valve control in the separator, when lowering, when the separator has reached the lower position.
SPRING FORCES
In its basic version “EW” = “single acting”, the separator ASMS has a compression spring which moves the separator into its upper or raised position.
The spring forces are:
Raised position: F1 = 70 N
Lowered position: F2 = 115 N
TEMPERATURE RANGE
Standard version: -20°C to +80°C
AIR CONNECTION
The separators ASMS are offered as single-acting variants.
There is only one air connection (P1) for lowering the separator.
This air connection is located on the back or front of the unit.
Usually, the front air connection is closed by a blanking plug.
EW = Single acting:
OPERATING PRESSURE AND AIR CONSUMPTION
Operating pressure 4 – 8 bar
Single acting function:
Cylinder volume for lowering + extending the stop plate:
ASMS-20-EW-08: 5.9 cm³ + 3.8 cm³ = 9.7 cm³
The air consumption Q in liter (Nl) can be calculated by using a
formula: Q = V⋅(p+0,1)⋅0,01
Here is:
Q … air consumption in liter (Nl)
V … Cylinder volume (cm³)
p … Supply pressure in MPa (6 bar = 0,6 MPa)
