The creation of a device requires not only rigorous scientific design and precise and reliable processing, but also experienced assembly. Below, we will discuss the issue of assembly and debugging:
I. What is Assembly?
Assembly is the process of fitting and connecting parts or components according to specified technical requirements to create a semi-finished or finished product. Machine assembly is the final stage in the manufacturing process, and it includes assembly, adjustment, inspection, and testing. The assembly process establishes specific mutual positional relationships between parts, kits, components, and sub-assemblies; therefore, the assembly process is also a technological process.
To ensure efficient assembly, machines are usually divided into several assembly units that can be assembled independently.
1. Parts: These are the small units that make up a machine, made from a single piece of metal or other material.
2. Kits (Sub-assemblies): These are formed by assembling one or more parts onto a base part. They are small assembly units.
3. Components: These are formed by assembling several kits and parts onto a base part. For example, a spindle component.
4. Sub-assemblies: These are formed by assembling several components, kits, and parts onto a base part. For example, the headstock of a lathe. The characteristic of a sub-assembly is that it performs a specific, complete function within the machine.
In non-standard equipment, common types include power transmission sub-assemblies, positioning and clamping sub-assemblies, equipment functional sub-assemblies, and operational protection sub-assemblies.
