Improved joints for Delta robots
Belden Universal, the manufacturer of universal joints, cardan shafts and power transmission elements, is presenting improved joints for pick-and-place applications and delta robots.
The joints are largely made of corrosion-resistant steel and are based on a combination of the pin/cube design, which is usually designed as a plain bearing, and the needle bearing joint. The joint is suitable for continuous operation under highly dynamic conditions and can support high side loads when operating with large deflection angles despite its small size. Larger bearings enable operation at higher torques, which are required for handling larger loads. Modifications in the fork area increase the deflection angle to up to 55 degrees in all directions. The torsional backlash has been reduced by further design measures and ensures precise positioning of the payloads. am
