Before designing a QuickStick HT transport system, review the following information:
•
Application for the QuickStick HT system.
•
Desired throughput.
•
Maximum payload.
•
Total transport length.
•
Transport topography.
•
Move time.
•
Vehicle length.
Once these characteristics are known, identify additional requirements:
•
Accommodations for vehicles less than 0.5 meters [19.7 inches] in length.
•
Accommodations for track length and topology.
•
See
for QSHT motor
and motor drive mechanical drawings.
•
See
for the QSHT magnet array mechanical drawing.
•
Perform the calculations as shown in
to deter-
mine the optimal thrust force, Vehicle Gap, and magnet array size.
•
The QuickStick HT transport system allows only one vehicle at a time on a motor
block (see
). Each block is a discrete motor primary section of multiple coils
within the motor that is energized over its whole length.
•
The magnetic attractive force present per magnet cycle and the required thrust must be
accounted for with the QuickStick HT motors (see
). Complete tables for
thrust and attractive force are available in
