Technical calculations
■Ball spline life calculations
Ball spline's running life is calculated with the formula below.
- L: Life (km)
- ft: Temperature factor
- fh: Hardness factor
- fp: Load rating ratio
- fw: Load factor
- L0: Rated life (50km)
- C: Basic dynamic load rating (N)
- F: Applicable radial load (N)
- Ct: Basic dynamic torque rating (N・m)
- T: Applicable torque (N・m)
Ball spline's life time is calculated with the formula below.
- Lh: Run hours (hr)
- L: Life (km)
- St: Stroke length
- n: Cycles per minute (cpm)

IDEA NOTE One actuator performs swinging and workpiece rotation.
Drive pulley rotates the gripper arm 90°-from one conveyor line to another. Since pulley ration is 2:1, part of the gripper arm rotates 180° (driven pulley translates the motion to ball spline and workpiece gripper).
