Slideways SuccessesCircuit Board Assembly MachineThe Challenge: The existing part could not stay flat. The warped partdamaged leads on the electronic components, which caused boards to berejected. And static build-up on the part also created rejects.The Slideways Solution: Slideways worked closely with the customer todetermine how the existing design was failing. The customer wanted tostay with UHMW for its no-maintenance, long-life properties. Using ourknowledge of the application and properties of UHMW, we designed anew part comprised of an aluminum base and an Anti-Static UHMW chainguide. The base is mechanically fastened to the chain guide, giving theUHMW the stability it needs to allow proper setting of each electroniccomponent in the grippers and final installation in the circuit board.Belt GuidesThe Challenge: The anti-static acetal belt guide being used in a glassmanufacturing plant was contaminating the product.The Slideways Solution: Slideways designed a UHMW guide that could bemade in 20' lengths which not only solved the contamination problem, itreduced installation time, increased guide longevity, reduced cost, andextended belt life.ABS Tilt Tray ApplicationThe Challenge: A central distribution center (CDC) for a nationwideretailer was having trouble with its conveyer. Tilt trays would occasionallyfail to return to a horizontal position after dumping their load. Whenthe conveyer attempted to place a package on the vertical tray it wouldjam the machine, typically damaging between one to ten trays peroccurrence! The customer was very concerned about the high cost ofreplacement plywood tilt trays from their conveyor OEM.The Slideways Solution: Cost was the primary driver for this project,so we worked with our distributor and the CDC to develop a lowercost tray. ABS plastic was selected for the trays because it is durable,rigid, relatively easy to bend when heated, and less expensive thanplywood. A prototype made of 3 /8" thick ABS had the right combinationof rigidity, bendability, ease of assembly, and low price. Slideways hasmanufactured several lots of tilt trays for the customer. These ABS tilttrays have considerably lowered maintenance costs for the customer.6 Visit us online at www.slideways.com or call toll-free 1-800-298-7543
