The automatia advantage
Why Automatia Is Best
For You
Engineering companies can survive only if they
upgrade themselves with latest technology that improves product quality for
their customers as well as reduce overhead costs of day to day operations. Automatia Machines are Engine Rebuilding
Machines that are manufactured with this core idea.
Today’s Engine Rebuilding companies are facing
an ever increasing power consumption cost and newer types of engines that
require more precision levels to rebuild, a problem compounded by an increasing
shortage of skilled technicians to operate these machines.
Automatia machines have incorporated latest
technology that cuts overhead costs in terms of power bills as well as lowering
servicing needs through mechanical wear out.
We use technology that makes precision works of Automatia Machines a
class far ahead of our competitors. Improved
used of automation and programming compensates shortage of skilled technicians. In fact, we even use technology to detect and
service machine errors online to improve customer satisfaction and reduce lost
work hours.
Below are detailed few technologies we have
incorporated that makes Automatia Machines the best in its class.
Servo Motor
A Servo Motor is a motor which is part of a servomechanism
is an automatic device that uses an error-correction feedback mechanism to
control the motion parameters.
Servos are extremely useful where the motor must be able to operate at a range of speeds without overheating, operate at zero speed while being able to retain its load in a set position, as well as operate at low speeds. The servo motor is relatively small in size, yet very powerful. A servo motor also draws power proportional to the mechanical load.
A
servo motor will have a position sensor like a digital encoder and the servo
motor and drive system will closely track what is asked of it. There is
typically a higher cost to a servo motor system than a stepper motor system,
due to the servo motor’s feedback sensor and processing electronics

Pulse Coded Modulation (PCM)
Each servo motor works off of modulation known
as Pulse Coded Modulation, or PCM. The motor has a control wire that is given a
pulse application for a certain length of time. The angular degree of the shaft
is determined by the length of the pulses, which the servo motor anticipates
every couple seconds. A normal servo is mechanically not capable of rotating
further due to a mechanical stop built into the main output gear. The amount of
power applied to the motor is proportional to the distance it needs to travel,
referred to as Proportional Control.
Manual pulse generator (MPG)
A manual pulse generator is a device normally
associated with computer numerically controlled machinery or other devices
involved in positioning.
It usually consists of a rotating knob that generates electrical pulses that are sent to an equipment controller. The controller will then move the piece of equipment by a predetermined distance for each pulse.
Human Machine Interface (HMI)
The user interface, in the industrial design
field of human–machine interaction, is the space where interaction between
humans and machines occurs. The goal of this interaction is effective operation
and control of the machine on the user's end, and feedback from the machine,
which aids the operator in making operational decisions. . User interfaces
exist for various systems, and provide a means of:
- Input, allowing the users to manipulate a system
- Output, allowing the system to indicate the effects of the users' manipulation

Generally,
the goal of human-machine interaction engineering is to produce a user
interface which makes it easy, efficient, and user friendly to operate a
machine in the way which produces the desired result. This generally means that
the operator needs to provide minimal input to achieve the desired output, and
also that the machine minimizes undesired outputs to the human.
Digital touch screen used in Automatia machines are unbeatable, delivering accurate inputs to feed the precision components.
Ball Screw
A ball screw is a mechanical linear actuator
that translates rotational motion to linear motion with little friction. A
threaded shaft provides a helical raceway for ball bearings which act as a
precision screw, as well as being able to apply or withstand high thrust loads,
they can do so with minimum internal friction.

rotational motion to linear motion with little friction. A threaded shaft
provides a helical raceway for ball bearings which act as a precision screw, as
well as being able to apply or withstand high thrust loads, they can do so with
minimum internal friction.
They are made to close tolerances and are therefore suitable
for use in situations in which high precision is necessary. The ball assembly
acts as the nut while the threaded shaft is the screw. An advantage of this design over the
conventional ballscrew or leadscrew is the practical elimination of backlash
and loading caused by preload nuts.
Advantages Low friction in ball screws yields high
mechanical efficiency compared to alternatives. A typical ball screw may be 90
percent efficient than conventional lead screw.
Lack of sliding friction between nut and screw lends itself to extended
lifespan of the screw assembly (especially in no-backlash systems), reducing
downtime for maintenance and part replacement and decreasing demand for
lubrication. This, combined with overall performance benefit and reduced power
requirements may offset the initial costs of using ball screws.

SPINDLE GEAR SYSTEM
Gear systems may have more sound than belts,
but have maximum efficiency while transmitting power. Our Hylum gears are far
durable compared to belts and chain drives used by others.
Gears also have an advantage over other drives in the reduced number of parts required. You can change the power to speed ratio. The definite velocity ratio which results from having teeth gives gears an advantage over other drives (such as traction drives and V-belts) in precision machines that depend upon an exact velocity ratio.
Advantages
of Gear with Respect to belt: -
Ø
Various speeds in different load conditions.
Ø
Increases engine efficiency.
Ø
Need less power input.
Ø Less maintenance.
Ø Can tolerate higher
load.
