This thesis presents the process followed for the design and assembly of a kinematics test facility. The system was designed because the Space Systems Lab needed a new facility that was more rapid and practical than the one already in use. The work began with an analysis of kinematics simulators and their requirements, then with the study of the mechanism that the facility would test, and of the previous test procedures. Then, a set of requirements was defined. The available components were considered and some new necessary components were acquired. Finally, the system was designed and a preliminary analysis of potentially critical load configurations on components was performed. A program was written to control the system, and the test procedure was implemented. After the final assembly of the system, some test trials were conducted. Although the performance met the requirements, improvements could be made in the future.
In questa tesi è presentato il processo seguito per effettuare il design e l'assemblaggio di una facility per test cinematici. Questo sistema è stato progettato perchè il Laboratorio di Sistemi Spaziali necessitava una nuova apparecchiatura che fosse più rapida e pratica nel suo utilizzo rispetto a quella già presente. Il progetto è iniziato con un'analisi dei simulatori cinematici e dei loro requisiti, poi con lo studio del meccanismo che il sistema avrebbe testato, e dei test precedentemente effettuati. Poi, dei requisiti sono stati fissati. I componenti disponibili sono stati considerati e alcuni nuovi componenti sono stati acquisiti. In fine, il sistema è stato progettato e l'analisi di alcune condizioni di carico potenzialmente critiche è stato effettuato. Un programma è stato scritto per controllare il sistema e la procedura di test è stata implementata. Dopo l'assemblaggio finale del sistema, sono stati condotti alcuni test di prova. Benché le performance raggiungano i requisiti, alcuni miglioramenti possono essere effettuati nel futuro.

Abstract
This thesis presents the process followed for the design and assembly of a kinematics test facility. The system was designed because the Space Systems Lab needed a new facility that was more rapid and practical than the one already in use. The work began with an analysis of kinematics simulators and their requirements, then with the study of the mechanism that the facility would test, and of the previous test procedures. Then, a set of requirements was defined. The available components were considered and some new necessary components were acquired. Finally, the system was designed and a preliminary analysis of potentially critical load configurations on components was performed. A program was written to control the system, and the test procedure was implemented. After the final assembly of the system, some test trials were conducted. Although the performance met the requirements, improvements could be made in the future.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
