RV Reducer Backlash Analysis Based on Robust Design

Abstract:

The RV reducer backlash is well controlled by means of robust design. Some factors influencing backlash are analyzed and divided into controllable factors and uncontrollable (noise) factors. The requirements for experimental factors are met for robust design. The experiment analysis is proposed by using orthogonal experiment and G.Taguchi robust design for each of effecting backlash factors. The optimum parameters are obtained for maximum signal noise ratio (SNR). The contribution rate for each factor influencing backlash is presented. Finally, RV reducer’s backlash is well decreased and achieved ideal result.
