The purpose of our assignment is to layout and
fabricate a pneumatically operated multipurpose grinder. Some operations may be
performed with this device.
They are as follows:
1.Grinding (Soft and Hard)
2. Drilling
3. Remapping
4. tedious
5. Screwing This device is operated by compressed
air.
It consists of the following main parts:
1. Barrel
2. Shaft
3. The framework and supporting columns
4. chuck and key
5. Couplings and other similar devices
A high pressure of compressed air is forced on a
fan, and the fan is made to rotate. This rotation is transmitted to the
machining head with the aid of a shaft and the specified operation is carried
out. Furthermore, if a hole is to be drilled in a part of an automobile, the
particular part has to be dismantled from the vehicle. By using this
pneumatically operated device, holes can be drilled in the required part
without dismantling it from the vehicle. As a result, this pneumatically
operated multi-purpose grinder is used for a variety of operations while
requiring less investment.
Introduction
The project work subject is one in which we are
actually learning the theoretical concepts in a practical way.Practical revel
in is one of the objectives of this subject. For a developing industry,
these operating procedures and the parts or components produced should have
their minimum possible production cost. Then the industry runs
profitably. There are a number of units being used in industries for
various purposes. For our thoughts, the various project names are given below.
- Sheet meal cutter that pedals
- Multi-purpose pneumatic device
- The Versa mill.
- Paint mixer
- Mechanical Jack.
From the above, we selected the ‘PNEUMATIC
MULTI-PURPOSE GRINDER’. Screw tightening and loosening, as well as drilling,
boring, and grinding, are frequently required in small-scale industries and
automobile repair shops. Large and intricately designed parts cannot be
machined on standard machines. Furthermore, for every operation, a separate
machine is required. This will increase the preliminary price required, big
location necessities and a big range of machines are required.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
The pneumatic multi-reason grinder is an
air-operated tool used for plenty small operations. It is a portable one.
Compressed air is the supply of strength for this device. The compressed
air is authorized thru the nozzle in the sort of manner to rotate the fan. The
rotation obtained is utilised for machining. The nozzles are welded to the
barrel at an perspective to facilitate unfastened rotation. The fan may be
circled in both route via way of means of running the one-manner corks. The rpm
and torque of the shaft depend upon the pressure of the air admitted, so by
varying the pressure, the rpm and torque can be varied. The parts are
interconnected by thick tubes. Clamps are used on the connecting elements to
save you leakage. In threaded elements, thread seals are used to save you
leakage. Here the compressed air from the compressor first enters the control
unit. In the manipulate unit, the stress of the air is managed and despatched
to the barrel to rotate the fan in any individual direction. The air from the
compressor enters the gate valve. The gate valve controls the strain and
quantity of air. Then the strain is study via way of means of a strain
gauge. Then the air is admitted to the barrel through any one of the two
one-way corks to rotate fans. A shaft is placed in the barrel, and it carries
the fan. The shaft is supported in either direction by
bearings. The bearings are placed in the couplings, which cover the
ends of the barrel.
APPLICATIONS
This multipurpose grinder has numerous
applications in various fields. In industries, this is used in the assembly
section. The required pressure is set and the operation is carried out. In
automobile shops, various operations are required frequently Drilling, boring,
reaming, grinding, etc. It is also used as a screwdriver for tightening and
loosening nuts and bolts. It is used
- In automobile workshops,
- In small-scale businesses
- In such places where frequent changes in operations are required,
- In welding shops for grinding.
For performing operations in huge parts which cannot
be done in ordinary machines, since it is portable.
ADVANTAGES
The pneumatically operated multi-cause grinder has
many advantages.
They are as follows:
- It is inexpensive, allowing it to be used in small-scale industries.
- More frequent and faster operations
- A wide variety of operations like drilling, screw driving, reaming, etc., may be done.
- The nuts and bolts may be tightened to a specific strain via means of working the gate valve located inside the manipulating unit and the strain gauge.
- Both loosening and tightening are possible. since there is airflow in both directions.
- The weight of the unit is lower and can be easily handled.
- Reliable operation because it does not require electricity to function.
- The weight of the machine is concentrated towards the machining head to facilitate easy manipulation of the machine.
The layout is straightforward and there may be
no protection required. The control valve for allowing or restricting air may
be placed on the handle to make it easier to control the speed of the
machine. The unit's maximum speed is 7000 rpm. The pace offers torque
that is appropriate for machining. The maximum pressure that can be used is 7
kg/km2. The rpm and torque may be varied via means of varying the
stress of the air inlet.
DISADVANTAGES
- The initial cost is high.
- Spindle rotation is pneumatic power, so this machine has low torque.
- You need a separate compressor.
