Development and Testing Of Sheet Metal Rolling Machine
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 6
Abstract
The sheet metal industry is a large and growing industry. Different types of machines are used for different operations. In this project the sheet metal rolling is very simple in operation by using roller which is coupled with motor. This machine produces cylindrical objects of different diameters. In normal practice of the roller bending, heavily depends upon the experience and skill of the operator. Trial and error is a common practice in the industry. This project reduces the man power so that the human errors are reduced. This machine consists of three rollers of 80mm dia and 1.37m length which are meshed with a gears at the end and the gear box is coupled with a 2hp motor. This machine is simple in construction and working. In this project the IR sensors are used for safety purposes. The system automatically stops, when the IR sensor detecting the any parts of the operator touches the roller. The lifting of top roller is automated by using lead screw which is rotated by 12v DC motors. The Fabricated machine is tested by rolling sheet metals of various thicknesses (1mm to 3mm) and its performance characteristics are studied. Break even analysis is done for finding the break-even point by using variable cost, rate of interest and investment cost. Objectives and scope of project: The main objective of the project is to develop a Sheet Metal Rolling machine with automated top roller adjustment , implementation of IR sensor for safety purposes and to assess the performance of the machine under various conditions.
