Realization of optimal motion jerky mode for roller forming unit

The optimal jerky mode of the reciprocating motion for a forming trolley is calculated to increase the reliability and durability of the roller forming unit. The criterion action is used as a criterion of the motion mode, which is an integral over time with the sub-integral function that expresses the jerk’s «energy» when calculating the optimal motion jerky mode. The change functions of the kinematic characteristics for the forming trolley are calculated. The variation law of the compaction rollers angular velocity is calculated by taking into account the change functions of the forming trolley speed. The roller forming unit design with a drive from the high-torque stepper motor is proposed, which is mounted in the compaction rollers of the forming trolley and provides the optimal jerky mode of reciprocating motion for the forming trolley. The surface quality of the processed concrete mixture is increased, dynamic loads in the drive mechanism elements are reduced, unnecessary destructive loads on the frame construction are disappeared and, accordingly, the reliability and durability of the unit as a whole are increased, when we use the such drive in the unit.
