Assembly process optimization of electromechanical meters based on robust design

Abstract

The assembly precision of the magnetic system of an electromechanical meter is an important guarantee for the measurement accuracy of the meter. The large gap between the two poles of the magnetic system is the key point that affects the assembly precision and is also the difficulty that electromechanical meter manufacturers face. In this paper, the controllable factors that affect the gap of a magnetic system are selected by performing an orthogonal experiment, the assembly process is analyzed, and the noise factors are selected; the orthogonal design achieved by using inner and outer array is used to design the experiment scheme, and the optimal combination of process parameters with a large signal-noise ratio (SNR) and good robustness is found through the experiment. Through experimental verification, the improved process capability index reaches 1.34, and the optimization effect is remarkable.
