Experimental research procedure of roller forming unit

Experimental research is conducted followed by a comparative analysis of the results, which are obtained in the process of theoretical and experimental studies, to check the theoretical research adequacy of the roller forming unit with the crank drive. We have developed the experimental research program for the roller forming unit with the crank drive. The research stand of roller forming with the crank drive was used for experimental studies. This research stand allows you to carry out full-value experimental studies on the determination of dynamic loads unrestricted. The experimental research program provides the determination of the interaction force for the compaction roller with the construction mixture, the force in the unit connecting rod, the torque on the unit drive shaft and the power, which is necessary for the realization of the forming process. The determination of these loads will make it possible to realistically assess the condition of the forming unit and rationally carry out its design and operation. Plan, procedure and processing of experimental research data have been developed. The measuring and recording equipment were selected to determine the force loads of the research stand for conducting experimental studies, which transforms the received numerical data into Microsoft Excel for their processing. The measurement of the force in the connecting rod and the interaction vertical force of the compaction roller with the construction mixture was carried out using strain gauges. These are pasted according to the bridge scheme on the connecting rod and the metal plate, which is located in the form with the building mixture under the compaction roller. RK 435 universal clamps, which make it possible to measure the line voltage, the current strength and the power under unit different load modes, are used to measure the power required for the forming process.
