Design and Analysis of a Panel Using FEA

The proposed design of the device comprises a steel support built akin to a crane. To this, some procured pre-assembled components and drive systems are mounted. The drives, in total, are multi-axis modular systems formulated to execute the desired panel handling operations. The mechanism is operated using pneumatics and has rudimentary linking and mounting assemblages. Every other modular drive systems put forth amongst constituents of the machine design are incorporated with analogous interface systems. Employment of modular drive systems benefitted copiously, some of which include: time-saving and less complex design and efficient, project scheming procedure, a prompt system aggregation of the system, high mechanical rigidity, and access to pre-existing CAD drawings for ideal designs. The proposed design encompasses three significant pneumatic-driven modular systems. The horizontal and vertical translations of the panels are assisted by the two linear gantries. And, the two actuated swivel drive systems and two gripper jaws execute a 180° panel rotation and help safeguard the panels throughout the entire procedure.
