Design and Features - System Configuration Design and Features - System Sizing Standard Configurations System Sizing Standard Hepco gantry systems are based on the HDS2 heavy duty range. Double axes pick and place gantries are the most common configuration for product handling applications. Both axis driven by a high capacity precision rack and pinion mounted on a single dual axis carriage assembly. HGS X, Y and Z axes normally comprise of standard aluminium beam sections as featured in the HDS2 catalogue. Aluminium beams provide a light weight yet strong method of construction reducing mass...

Design Services and CAD Specification Calculator There are many variables that must be taken into account when specifying a gantry system. Hepco's technical department have a custom sizing tool capable of specifying a gantry to suit specific payload, motion profile and duty cycles. Along with Hepco's technical department years of expertise they can provide the optimum gantry configuration. The following application information will be required when specifying a gantry system: n Axis stroke requirements n Payload mass n Payload offsets n Cycle times and distances (or n accelerations and velocities)...
