#190 Design Image Training - 6: Wiring, plumbing and base design
When machine devices contain more actuators (Air cylinder, electric motor, etc.) and sensors, wiring and plumbing layout designs are important affecting (1) machine reliability, (2) maintainability, (3) appearance. Especially the base plate of an automation device requiring layout holes needs screw design. Explanation is based on the Bingo Machine.
Importance of wiring, plumbing layout of automated machines.

・From [Photo 1], air actuator related components are arranged together in the back side of the machine. This is effective for efficient plumbing and air pressure adjustments.
・[Photo 2] is an example of wiring layout holes and the cover in the back side of the machine. Design of wiring holes on the base plate is required.
・The edges of base plate holes will need to be chamfered, or covered with plastic to avoid damages on wiring.
