Launching screws through washers - 3d printed automation #009
The second season of the MPS development series is starting!
This is the second season of a video series about multiple automation machines. It is called "the modular production system"
We start with modules that I build using 3d printing to count and package screws.
In each video we will go through the development.

    I think You can use revolver system (with an open exterior for feeding) for protect reverse screw. But it is design make thicker your device.

    I think some kind of an escapement mechanism that locks the column above, drops a screw and repeat would have worked, it would have minimized the fall distance and also seal the tube from leaking pressure into the screw tank. Great job indeed, also love the debate in the comments

    Why not just place a strip of double sided foam tape on the ramp that it is bouncing off of, leaving the waxy paper on the side that comes into contact with the part?

    I do realize that there might not be enough space for this but if you'd add a snail shape colinear to the presure line the screws could slide into place instead of falling and bouncing (and flipping) around.

    خسته نباشی دوست عزیز... یه راه دیگه ای هم هست درصدی از سیستم کار شما با جا گزاری پیچ ها پشت سر هم بصورت عمودی که تو دستگاه دریل باعث چرخش پیچ دوم بشه یا همون یکی مانده به سر که پیچ پشتی با چرخش از طریق دستگاه باعث چرخش و بسته شدن پیچ اول شود. همیشه پیچ دوم باعث بستن پیچ اول میشود با چرخش و نیرویی که از دستگاه برقی دستی ایجاد میشود و با ایده و ابداع شما کار خشاب گزاری مداوم صورت میگیرد به ترتیب پیچ ها پشت سر هم وارد دستگاه انتقال نیروی دستی میشود و با چرخش پیچ یکی به آخر باعث بسته شدن پیچ آخری یا همون پیچ سر میشود...

    • @HamidRasouli
      @HamidRasouli 5 днів тому

      همیشه پیچ قبلی باعث بسته شدن پیچ اولی میگردد با دستگاه انتقال قدرت دستی که پیچ ها از طریق لوله از داخل آن میگذرند و در نهایت بسته میشوند.🎉

    Why are you dropping the part? Why not have it feed directly to the launch point. When a gun loads a round it doesn't drop a bullet. Your making it more complicated than it needs to be. Eliminate the drop

  • @RavenTheSergal
    @RavenTheSergal 5 днів тому

    8:46 im sorry but this was a little silly. What rifle are you interpreting?? I've never seen a gun that drops its bullet 10 cm to load it into the barrel, the only reason this still has the issue is that you didnt bother to fix the issue in the first place? Havent finished the video yet but i feel like the first idea was made without the first issue in mind.

    • @RavenTheSergal
      @RavenTheSergal 5 днів тому

      Oh cool prototype 2 is done the gun way but using a vacuum instead (which honestly i thought would happen at some point so yippee)

  • @MrMann-dw5uh
    @MrMann-dw5uh 5 днів тому

    This machine has potential! It can (and will) work!!! The only problem is keeping the screws in the same tail-up orientation when it lands in the hole of the printed part. You might want to have the head of the screw inserter (the part labeled "DIN912 M416") move in a straight line each time it inserts a screw; however, it might require tuning of the pneumatic system so that it doesn't give the screw enough energy to bounce and lose orientation. Or an easier option would be to increase the, depth of the, cavity the screws are placed in, regardless of their orientation or likelihood to jump out.

  • @ufochannel01
    @ufochannel01 5 днів тому

    a steeper angle and not as wide would work. imho the first short one works because of the steeper angle it has. and to offset the bigger bolt head it needs to be a few degrees more than that.

  • @bestcreations4703
    @bestcreations4703 5 днів тому

    Why not just add a rail with a hole in the middle that would catch the head of the screw but let the tail fall down, allow it to slide down the rail into an opening and so no matter what direction the screw enters the rail at it’ll always face the same orientation. To solve the problem of allowing multiple screws you can have multiple steps to the rail and this will even automatically sort them.

    What is releasing the bolts from the msgazine? Can you use that, or mod it, so the bolts are "positively captured" (nothing left to gravity chance) while they enter the tube?

    Ok, so so amazingly cool to shoot through the washer, but from an ease of doing it, way easier to have the washer simply sit concentric to the outlet of the tubing and have the screw grab it on the way out rather than doing the midair catch, as any velocity change in the screw and your timing fails (I’m betting big temperature changes chaining air density breaks this given the tiny window of making them meet in midair)

  • @oNovais
    @oNovais 6 днів тому

    If you are using after effects for the diagram, you can go to layer > transform > orientation > oriente along path. Then you can draw a path copy and paste in position and the screw will curve automatically with the path. Making the bends of the tube etc.

  • @3d1e00
    @3d1e00 6 днів тому

    Why are you using that clip? I believe other solutions I have seen use rotation to sort, they discard the wrong orientation back in to the drum. After watching a bit more that gate (the manual load breach thing) can be used to discard bolts in the wrong orientation just have it reject them by actuating when the head is wrong side. Feed back through and hope it gets the right way round at a good rate.

  • @matthiaskontsevitch4553

    You could curve the path of the screw between the magazine and the chamber out of the XY plane to lock the orientation but allow movement

    Except for the fact that, no, it'd not anywhere near as strong. The bottom part isn't connected and unlike a normal print unless you preheated the next part, it would be dead cold, which means weaker layer adhesion

    "...o-rings that I cut in half" - *cuts into four pieces* :) Also I don't understand why the screws have to *fall* in all iterations of your system. Why not look at how guns load ammunition? I'd say there are many parallels to your problem. Automatic guns need to process ammunition extremely fast and with precision. And they leave as little room as possible to eliminate chance.
