DESIGN
CONSIDERATIONS
This guide provides general operating
procedures. Your specic application
will have special considerations in setup,
function and use. There are several design considerations
that must be addressed before implementing Blue Photon
workholding. Review these considerations with your
design and engineering teams, including the number and
position of grippers, adhesive joint temperature, adhesive
cure time, amount of adhesive, setting the part on applied
adhesive, and part and gripper cleaning.
