CKD ESM Series User manual

CC-1259A 1

Transporting work pieces from machine to machine for processing
High speed transport is possible (straight section: Max. 2,000 mm/s; curve section: Max. 1,500 mm/s).
Work pieces can be stopped at multiple locations (repeatability ±0.5 mm).
Soft starting and soft stopping are possible.
The combination of straight sections and curve sections allows you to create the pathway you want.
Pathwaycanbemodiedaftersetup.
Maintaining the conventional pathways, work pieces can be transported from machine to
machine.

SM-25
The air driven three-dimensional P&P
sytem allows you to create a three-
dimensional layout you really want.
A technique to bend a cylinder tube without crushing
enables a curved transport system. The product
features three-dimensional transport which was
previously unachievable.

Collecting and transferring of jigs in an assembly line
Astheproductionlinebecomesmoreefcient,theproductivitywillbeincreased.
The staff workload will be reduced.
Sincetheassemblymachinescanbearrangedinastraightline,theplantspacecanbeutilizedmoreefciently.
The workload to transport the jig was eliminated.

A single actuator can now deliver the same assembly parts to different machines
in the production line.
Jigs in an assembly line can be easily pick up after the last station and transferred back to
the 1st.

Specications
Note 1: Contact CKD if the stroke length exceeds 20 m.
Note 2: The vertical difference is the difference between the heights at the highest spot and the lowest
spot in the transporting path.
Note 3: Contact CKD if you want to use a motor other than the recommended motors.
Note 4: If you need to detect the origin and overruns on both ends, you need three of these.
(Place an order for the required quantity. Refer to page 2 for the model no. and page 10 for the
specications.)
Note 5: You need 0.5 second or longer for either acceleration or deceleration.
Note 6: The products do not come with a motor. Customers are required to prepare, install, adjust the
motor and driver.
Note 7: The products are sold as a unit. Customer are required to install and adjust them.
Note 8: If a curve unit is directly connected to the motor drive unit, the PP unit (air supply unit) cannot be
used.

Unit example
Note: This is an air supply unit installed on the carrier to supply air to the terminal end.
If a curve unit is directly connected to the motor drive unit, the PP unit (air supply unit)
cannot be used.
